give me a break... they are enforcing this for by triggering a sound barrier. Just because that may be true for some things doesn't mean its true for all laws
danielyaa5··on New York rolling out noise law, listening tech for souped-up speedsters
Being a minority doesn't give you the right to be an asshole
danielyaa5··on Ask HN: If you cut caffeine, how long would you last at your job?
I think the secret to caffeine is tolerance breaks. If you tbreak on the weekends and increasingly up the dose during the weekdays
danielyaa5··on We lost 54k GitHub stars
It resets watchers also and people subscribed to issues. That negatively impacts the project
danielyaa5··on Impressions from a first-time Mac user
I think it’s unfair to compare OS X to both Linux and windows. You’re basically double teaming. Also comes off as bias to have only cons for the software.
danielyaa5··on Ask HN: What is your Git commit/push flow?
I think clean commit history is overrated as long as your squash and merge prs into main. I’ve tried clean commits using rebase and I just don’t think overhead for me personally is worth it. What’s more important is small PRs. And if you can’t do that usually find spending some time reviewing the code with the reviewee is also helpful

The only thing I like about this is the name

danielyaa5··on AirPods don't “just work”
For annoyance 1 I use a bettertoutchtool shortcut to connect to my AirPods . I also noticed BigSur will have a notification pop up asking if you want to reconnect
danielyaa5··on How the gut differentiates artificial sweeteners from sugars in mice
I just did keto and was shocked at how much I liked eritythol but we’ve still got a ways to go
danielyaa5··on Who wrote this shit?
Also just because someone’s on the blame didn’t mean they wrote it. They maybe refactored
danielyaa5··on Why aren't the most useful Mac apps on the App Store?
This blog post reads a lot like the lunar app. Overly complicated but very pretty.

They should update the Turing test with a test where you talk to a chat bot instead of a 13 year old

danielyaa5··on Improving GitHub Code Search
this is awesome but i dont know why we needed faster search, seems like time wouldve been better spent on more search features. I guess this is class programmer pointless optimization

I use BetterTouchTool to create keyboard shortcuts for controlling the thermostat
danielyaa5··on If software engineering is in demand, why is it so hard to get a job?
It’s because they pay you a ton of money so they want to feel like they didn’t make a mistake
danielyaa5··on China has forbidden under-18s from playing games for more than three hours/week
I’m appalled at how many people are defending this. I don’t think it’s comparable to any other western bans, I.e alcohol and tobacco. We don’t ban anything that goes into a child’s mind as long as their parents consent. Just because video games aren’t in societies best interest doesn’t mean a child should be barred from doing what they love. Man it’s so hard to fit in for some people and this is there escape. This really seems like just another of the hundreds of rules China uses to sap the absolute freedom and childhood out of kids. The school schedule is absolutely insane. I do think this will have negative effects on the Chinese culture
danielyaa5··on A simple way to feel happier, according to the new science of emotion
These articles that make it seem like there’s a way to change your emotions through thought seem so sus. Life is complicated, biology is so complicated, just study yourself and see what works for you. But I bet you are better off changing your environment than thinking your way into better emotions. If you’re rational you can find your own answers instead of looking at essentially a self help / meditation article

Brookstone had one like that
danielyaa5··on World’s first cultured meat-production plant opens in Israel
Is it kosher?
danielyaa5··on Airbnb Is Spending Millions of Dollars to Make Nightmares Go Away
This is true, I usually travel with friends and we’d rather be in the same house then the same hotel. Also there’s more options as far as locations and houses can be a lot more unique than a hotel
danielyaa5··on How Universal Control on macOS Monterey Works
I wish they would just let me remotely login to my phone and tablet from my mac

danielyaa5··on A former CIA chief of disguise shows off a five-second mask (2020) [video]
