Graffur··on Ask HN: How ambitious were your parents on you?
My parents aimed for 1 level up from the opportunities they had. They didn't get a full education: finish highshcool or go to college. So that is what I did.
Graffur··on Why we ignore thousands of daily car crashes
Thanks for the summary although it doesn't say _why_
Graffur··on I regret my website redesign
Well we know the agency got well paid for the work. We don't know how much the people doing the work got.
Graffur··on I regret my website redesign
Well written and an interesting read. Thanks for posting. My reaction is "WHAT ARE YOU DOOOOING?" haha.

I am not in the position to spend 46k on... anything but I would like to think I wouldn't be duped in the same way. All this "you're a small client" stuff is BS imo.

What does this mean? Instagram is used for current content.

What is your opinion on Mr Beast? I just watched a video of his for the first time and he gave away over $500,000.
Graffur··on Woman ‘dehumanised’ by viral TikTok filmed without her consent
I fully agree with this woman. It is crazy how much support these invasive videos get online. The owner of the TikTok is not doing this to be kind. They are doing it for Content.
Graffur··on SPAs: theory versus practice
It's a good point. I'm not sure how it would be tracked. I just can't think of anyone I know that even might browse with JS off. It's on as a default setting and I think it is fair to say that most of the world don't know what JS is.
Graffur··on SPAs: theory versus practice
Your point seems to be more of HTMX vs React rather than SPA vs MPA.

With SPA frameworks you can deliver pages that can be accessed by the user (rather than just a single entry point). The difference becomes how the developer decides to build the application. Do they load all of the apps data on the first page load or do they retrieve it as the user browses around?

Graffur··on SPAs: theory versus practice
> not everyone has JavaScript enabled

What are the stats? I assume it's > 99% have JavaScript enabled. Any significant percentage could be down to corporate policies.

Strange comment. Who doesn't admit it? Everything can be a distraction.
Graffur··on My awakening moment about how smartphones fragment our attention span
The thing is that people can feel it themselves and see it in other people. It would be great if it is studied but there is something there.
Graffur··on Show HN: Ferris, social network for IRL activities with your closest friends
This could be good but after signing up it seems like I can't see how it actually works or what it looks like. I have to add friends first. That means I have to sell the idea to my friends before I can even see if it is useful.

How are you going to make money?
