It does have some places! I used it at IOHK, they use it at Mercury, a little at Meta, Galois, etc...

I am not actually sure they are a journalist, but more a blogger? Happy to be proven wrong

Looks like all the CSS is
/* Drop caps / .first-paragraph { position: relative; padding-top: 0.2em;
&::first-letter {
/* font-weight: bold; */
font-size: 4em;
float: left;
margin: 0.15em 0.05em 0 0;
font-family: 'EBGaramond-InitialsF2', serif;
font-display: block;
line-height: 0.83em; /* Fix alignment in Chrome */
}
&::before {
margin: 0.15em 0.05em 0 0;
font-size: 4em;
font-family: 'EBGaramond-InitialsF1', serif;
content: attr(data-first-letter);
color: gray;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0.28em;
}
}
Re:Ask HN: What do you spend your money on?
on Monday June 02, 2025 @09:33AM (#44158688)
Paying for grad school out of pocket (around 700 USD per month, I'm going slowly). Paying for a large tattoo out of pocket, actually the same price as grad school (700 USD). Member of a few different clubs (BJJ, Muay Thai, local spa gym) which is maybe 300 USD all in.
Those are my regular monthly bills outside of house, food, etc...
Won't say salary but in a high percentile of income in EU country.
If I had no job and unlimited money (and no responsibilities) I'd go to Phuket and train Muay Thai for a year, then go to the Wudang mountains and train Kung Fu at some probably quite Westernised temple for another year. Afterwards I'd start a company in the defence or space sector.

I'd love a remake or a Chromehounds 2 on Xbox/PlayStation. I played it on the 360 but before I had online, so only in single player, but still loved it.

If you're actually 16, this is really nice and you are way ahead for your age, congrats :) You got a little stick here because some people have used this claim falsely for marketing and are actually not 16.
If you are, keep going - you will smash it :)

I assume all these "I am 16" type posts are just ways to help market, unless the account exists for some time before the Show HN with clear evidence they are in high school (I have seen many younger people talk about high school internships, for example - if they then have a Show HN I will believe it!)

Yeah, 99% sure

Re:CVE program faces swift end after DHS fails to renew contract

My point was that he served in Iraq and has more "real" experience than being a prison guard. This doesn't mean he has enough experience to run the DoD of course, but I wanted to add that because it's misrepresenting a vet who served a deployment.

Not defending him as a person, but he earned a bronze star serving in Iraq.
