Ask HN: Share your Bluesky invites here
Some of us are quite curious to try it but don’t have the sort of network to get a code. I’m not leaving my email here, may the fastest page refreshers win.

Would love to see the code behind this. Side note, I'll continue to ask, if anyone has an invite drop it here!

As far as I know, yes. Namecheap markets it as being short for software, or social.

Simple opinionated answer: .io and .so
A decade ago .io meant you were trendy and in tech, now it means you’re in tech.
Today .so means you’re trendy and in tech.

This is both funny and sad. The author’s difficulties were almost certainly caused by their mental illness.
As an aside, as a Canadian it’s always amazing reading about American CS grads with no practical skills start at a salary higher than I will likely ever have. What a difference a few kilometres make.

A family is visiting the grandmother before her medically assisted death due to extreme chronic pain. Should the children be explained to what’s going on before they say goodbye? If so, is a book made for children possibly a helpful way to approach this topic?
The “kids can’t learn about X” arguments never seem fully thought out to me, more like reactions to triggering words. Sex ed, gay people, euthanasia, etc.

Absolutely. This is one last attempt to frame his failure and giving up as being his dedication to “vox populi”.

You might be interested in Common Crawl. They crawl the internet and make the full dataset downloadable.

I don’t understand why he presents this as a mystery. They both adhere to this App Store rule:
“If your app includes user-generated content from a web-based service, it may display incidental mature “NSFW” content, provided that the content is hidden by default and only displayed when the user turns it on via your website.“
Ask HN: Are you getting recommended YouTube videos with low view counts?
I've started noticing a lot more YouTube videos recommended on the sidebar with very low view counts. Some have only a dozen views. These are being recommended while I watch popular generic videos, nothing niche. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm wondering if YouTube is changing their recommendations algorithm to rival the way TikTok propels new creators/videos.

Details: The engine I'm using here is Midjourney. Because there's no ability for consistency of characters (plus general engine limitations), I've found it works great for backgrounds. Then, characters can be quickly doodled over top.

I'd be interested in hearing the experiences of people who switched from React Native to Flutter, or vice versa. Especially those who needed web support.

This seems like a legacy of the way the app store used to work. Today if you delete an app with an active subscription you are prompted to unsubscribe.

Correct. Their automated system is rejecting the builds. It seems to think they're using private APIs. This problem seems to be affecting users of all the major cross platform solutions, but it might not be exclusive to them.

A big remaining hurdle to developing native-like PWAs on iOS is the inability to lock the screen orientation.
