Exuma··on Stranger Things creator says turn off “garbage” settings
Turning off soap opera setting on every single person I visit... and watching their reaction ... "dude...... I've been arguing with my wife about this and she thinks im crazy!!!"

Also just let me reference the damn alias in a group by, FUCK
Exuma··on 1 Trillion Web Pages Archived
I imagine it would be no different than current indexing strategies with a temporal aspect baked in... it would act almost like a different site, and maybe roll up the results after the fact by domain
Exuma··on Be Worried
No, I shall not "be worried." Unless you are some spineless blob of agencyless ooze... you should be able to parse reality in such a way that your day not need to be filled with worrying

i hate python, but the idea of replacing python with rust is absurd

Exuma··on Typing 118 WPM broke my brain in the right ways
my record is 160 and it makes me mad that ~145-153 is my "wall". no matter how much i relax my hands and do technique I cannot move beyond it. if i google advice/videos, its all people trying to get above 110 or so. I'm with tumbleweeds ... man it would be sweet to type 200 though.
Exuma··on WebGL Water (2010)
Here is a trick: pause the simulation and drag the ripples back and forth really fast, it will create a "mega" wave. Then unpause and it will create a massive tsunami

This is my most voted submission. This thing literally never gets old

As OSX user... if there is a nice pristine OSX app (like Postico) I will pay for it even if theres a free version (easily, hands down) if the UI/UX is nice, and pro version has extra features. So I'm definitely someone who would pay.
Exuma··on Heart disease deaths worldwide linked to chemical widely used in plastics
I remember when this link went around that this 1% column didn't really quite make sense. 1% makes it sound like it's well within the limit, even if you ate 10 in-n-out cheeseburgers a day.

I guess the question is, at what percent of the "tolerable daily intake" of DEHP do very bad side effects (like the heart issues in this post) start to occur?

Exuma··on Heart disease deaths worldwide linked to chemical widely used in plastics
How likely (perhaps as a percentage) do you think it is that your product will work as described? I'd be interested in taking it, assuming that's all it does is remove plasticizers and not a bunch of good things, and otherwise is mostly inert.

Exuma··on Kill your Feeds – Stop letting algorithms dictate what you think
Why do people really need to be told this? This is fundamentally obvious at the most extreme basic of levels. It's as obvious as a red cube being red.
Exuma··on Apple's Software Quality Crisis
When i type on iMessages, any time the message gets longer than ~8 sentences, ie... a mildly long message, it starts to lag extremely bad, where 1 keystroke has like a 250ms delay. it gets worse the more characters get added on

ive tried every single fix i can find, from turning off AI to predictive text. nothing fixes it. so many other people have this issue... it is absolutely insane a messaging app cannot message

Exuma··on Visualize Ownership and Lifetimes in Rust
Wow this is super cool. Is this pretty reliable for more advanced scenarios? Simple ones I wouldn't need to see this on, but the more complex things I'd be very interested in perusing code to make certain things click.
Exuma··on Show HN: Play with real quantum physics in your browser
Damn, that is cool
