cushpush··on Anakin – Automatically Kill Orphans
Child, orphan, zombie" computing terminology is goofy at best. A process has a child? Already doesn't make sense, it's replication and mitosis, not reproduction via fertilization. To anthropomorphize (make human, apply human qualities to) computing processes, threads, and conceptual allocations of heap space is an attempt to invite our biological comprehension into a digital domain, but sometimes it is better to invent new words.
cushpush··on Tell HN: HN is not HN anymore

cushpush··on WebSockets vs. Server-Sent-Events vs. Long-Polling vs. WebRTC vs. WebTransport
Similitudes in timbre. There is plenty of room for improving the state of the web. Not 100% certain IPV6 is that, but it certainly offers more address space, and that would be foolish to avoid embracing simply because old tech is duct-tape-able enough.

cushpush··on FCC scraps old speed benchmark, says broadband should be at least 100Mbps
100Mbps 15 years ago in Australia would have been huge, the return on investment almost instantaneous for that timescale (Say, 14 months)

cushpush··on Show HN: Wife couldn't find a dev job so I built a tool to automate the search

cushpush··on Show HN: 3 years and 1M users later, I just open-sourced my "Internet OS"
When I was young I dreamed on having a USB stick (not yet invented) I could take with me to different kiosks and have a standard OS load my specific instances thanks to my custom key. This approaches that functionality and I think it's pure brilliance that you've included such thorough a demo for us to enjoy that you spent so much time and enthusiastic effort into creating and making manifest. So, I applaud you there and thank you for making it open-source that's super cool, and might inspire someone to make a kiosk that, by default, loads your site.
cushpush··on HN Comments
The rules / guidelines actually suggest against leaving comments that do not add substantially to the conversation -- so if the threshold required to make a post is increased, naturally fewer events meet threshold energy than elsewhere. Also suspect most users interact via mobile, which is less accommodating for longform typing of replies.
