A large part of the voters are gullible idiots who don’t understand when they vote against their own interests. Add a personality cult in the mix and this explains the current situation we’re in.
Re:HackerTube: YouTube built from videos recommended by HN

Youtube feeds work the other way around it appears. Content seeks you. Things promoters think you may click on haunt you. There are videos I see are there in the feed and I don't click on because I am not interested and they linger there, trying to dupe me to click on. Absolutely disgusting.

Like Magpie developers? It may be somewhat humorous but that’s what these analogies look like from the outside. People chasing new things or trends for its own sake is a thing.

Actors and characters do blend and influence one another. Maybe you have a problem with how the credit is being shared but try to think if the series (or a movie) would be the same if the actors were replaced. Yes, you’re right that credit goes to the whole team but the main protagonists do stand out.

Trump will anyway throw them under the bus when he's done with them so it's a bit naive to expect their identities would be kept secret forever. And somehow they hoped those masks would do anything else beside terrorize Americans. As far as archival, yes that's a good idea. I'm sure the current admin will attempt to shred everything..

Likewise here. If I accidentally become a billionare I’d donate most of it to good causes after making sure family and close friends will be able to reach their own goals without becoming filthy rich. Creating a dinasty of wealth is cursing your own family.

Many hobbies do that for you. It’s important to engage with something that you like and use your brain. Also, part of the equation is to keep on moving. If you take daily walks and engage in a desk bound hobby it’ll likely provide similar benefits discussed here.

Re:The foolishness of "natural language programming" (1978)
on Friday October 23, 2026 @06:13PM (#50216087)
Yeah, just because higher level programming languages (PLs) emerged doesn't mean lower-level PLs or assembly disappeared. Programming with LLMs in natural language is somewhat like programming in a higher level PL that gets translated into lower level PL, all the way down to assembly.
When it comes to precision it's easier to express instructions in formal languages and I don't see that changing anytime soon unless natural language itself changes drastically, which I highly doubt. Formal syntax, well-defined semantics, reproducibility and composability are traits that make traditional programming languages more reliable and precise than natural language for programming.

I think the voters, at least some part the voters, would be more reluctant to engage online due to this type of leak. Other than that, they'd continue with their convictions as before.
