OneManHorde··on A 5.3M-year-old deep-sea whale necropolis in the Diamantina Zone
This is perhaps the most "metal concept album"-ready Nature article title I have seen. My Nature+ subscription is paying the bills this month, for sure.
OneManHorde··on People are worried about America's solvency
I am sure this is a nice article, but I'm always surprised when something with a hard paywall makes it this high up on HN. Does everybody but me have a Financial Times subscription?
OneManHorde··on The title cards in Blade Runner are amazing
IBM Plex Mono totally slaps. Look at those braces!
OneManHorde··on Everything Is BOM: Bill of Materials Encyclopedia
These are specifically not Bills of Material, but general (LLM-generated, it seems) lists of the kinds of parts involved in things. No specific part numbers are indexed, and things like "Bare PCB" are not usefully-broken-down; FR4 is quite different than what you'd use for a high-frequency RF board, so saying bare PCBs are "$1 to $200" is not at all helpful.

I like the idea implied by the name, but this is more like a "Vaguely How Stuff Works dot com" than that.

OneManHorde··on Understanding the rationale behind a rule when trying to circumvent it
Microsoft is so broken that an employee finds it easier to write a blog post about a documentation improvement than simply making that improvement? Explains a lot. "Conway's Flaw?"
OneManHorde··on Strain-resilient intrinsically stretchable electrochemical biointerfaces
Highly-deformable materials for bio-sensors. "This limitation impedes applications" once again missing from the abstract, but this could easily have deployed that line.
OneManHorde··on Ask HN: What was your "oh shit" moment with GenAI?
Still waiting. Maybe some day.
OneManHorde··on SpaceX, Other Mega IPOs Denied Fast Index Entry by S&P
Baffling number of total-paywall links on the front page here these days.
OneManHorde··on Logging Off
Can someone explain who this person is and why this is relevant? People crash out all the time; you can seek balance without "cold turkey", unless they find no value in the web at all, in which case why bother to post about it? Who is the audience of this website, if this is their last post?
