dharness··on AirBnB units drop by 74% due to SF regulations
I'm actually not sure I saw anything in the article that actually provides that figure - but it looks like it is meant to be the quantity.
dharness··on Ask HN: In 2018, what are you doing to get into or stay in shape?
Caloric restriction
dharness··on Show HN: SiteGuru – Check your website for SEO and usability issues
I sincerely wish the images were svgs, or at least higher resolution pngs.
dharness··on Show HN: You can now mine for Pizza in your browser
I honestly may have tried to mine the pizza but there is no info about how I'd actually get my 'za so... I left.
dharness··on Show HN: AI Recruiter
It says you are hiring at the bottom of the page but links to an empty angel list.
dharness··on Show HN: Improved My News App, Would Love Feedback
The new UI is much nicer!

I'd prefer pictures, though.

dharness··on Bluetooth Low Energy WarDriving 101
Broken for me - Chrome 63.0.3239.84, Sierra
dharness··on Macchiato – A way to build Node web applications using ClojureScript
I think it should say "ClojureScript arrives on THE server", with the article.
dharness··on Ask HN: Where do you shop for PCs?
Hmm, I don't know those seem like very quiet noises.
dharness··on Ask HN: Where do you shop for PCs?
What kind of noise
dharness··on Things Many People Find Too Obvious to Have Told You Already
Software Engineering at Canadian universities does not contain a dramatically different level of vocational training (with the exception of Waterloo).

Co-op programs are optional, and take place in the summer or in a gap year. The affiliation of companies hosting co-ops is loose, and the schools charge large fees for participating in these programs (with the exception of Waterloo).

Speaking from personal experience, results may vary.

dharness··on Ask HN: Where can I learn about fourier transformations?
What is a dominant modality?
dharness··on Show HN: Finch.io – tweak design on any live website
Nice landing page. I personally find I can mostly just do this stuff with css and the inspector. It's not difficult enough to justify paying money for a prettier sol'n.
dharness··on Show HN: Moocha.io – A search engine for MOOCs
I think there are many ways you could point out a competitor. If a competitor did something different that's notable I think it makes sense to share and explain how the OP could learn from that.

Sometimes 1-liners like "Checkout xyz, been around since 2014" seem a little like an ad leaching off of the original Show HN.

I think it depends strongly on the content and the framing of comment.

dharness··on Technology preview: Private contact discovery for Signal
Couldn't you just not send any stickers?
dharness··on Show HN: Levels.fyi, compare career levels across different fields
What is a "career level", exactly?
dharness··on Show HN: Hatch – A modern project, package, and virtual env manager for Python
I agree. It is definitely a completely different thing and even though 'egg' is a cool word I wish it was just 'hatch create my-app'
dharness··on Ask HN: How do you pivot your career when jobs want years of exp in a stack
100% with regards to "just don't".

Independent of that, I think using the word 'pivot' here is fine. We all know what he means. There might be a different word with a different connotation that some people may be more receptive to. But, pivot is well within the realm of reasonable words to use here.

dharness··on Leaving Python for JavaScript
Why is all the actual content on the far right side of the page? Even more interesting given that you specialize in UI/UX.
dharness··on Whatruns: Identify technologies used on any website
I agree.. tbh, I'm not sure why I'd want this as an extension. Seems like I'd use it too sporadically to justify keeping it in chrome.
dharness··on Ask HN: What is your favorite CS paper?
Seam Carving!

dharness··on Windy.com
eerily so
dharness··on Show HN: Pandas in JS
I agree. Once I realized this was happening I stopped scrolling because I didn't want to have to click back that many times.
dharness··on Show HN: Rate your API Documentation
At first I thought I could paste in a link to my docs but then I realized it was manual so I bailed.
dharness··on Show HN: DIY Intercom Replacement for React Apps
Funny you say that, that's how this project started! I've got the work in progress here https://github.com/kingofthestack/slackchat
dharness··on Show HN: Failory – Learn from other entrepreneurs' mistakes
Inspired by https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses ?
dharness··on Ask HN: Where to apply for SF/SV startup jobs?
angel.co, filter by location.

There may be a recruiter or 2 in there, but they can be good for a chat.

dharness··on X.com
Best thing I've ever seen on HN.
dharness··on Show HN: Emojilog – A simple emoji journal application
What is the purpose of this?
