hit8run··on The need for quantum computers remains small
So did the need for computers before the revolution started. It’s just a matter of time
hit8run··on DALL·E now available in beta
It’s so dirty what Microsoft is doing here. They ripped the tech out of developers hands just to sell us drips of it. Drips that are not enough to build a product for more than a few people. They require to check on the use before launching etc. I truly hate this company, their shitty operating system and their monopoly business game. Everything they buy turns to shit. And don’t tell me about VSCode. It’s just a trap to fool developers.
hit8run··on FCC: TikTok is unacceptable security risk and should be removed from app stores
Same goes for Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and all other Meta products.
hit8run··on Apple has a bug in its disk I/O throttling code that affects raw disk copies
Apple has a lot of other bugs in their code, too. Did you ever try to delete a Bootcamp partition and merge it to you main disk when using their new filesystem? It corrupts the disk and in order to be able to reallocate the disk space you need to completely wipe the Mac and start fresh.
hit8run··on Fish Shell 3.5.0
I'm running fish for at least 8 years now and I'm very happy with the out of the box experience. It's one of the first things I install on new machines.
hit8run··on How to Do a Handstand
That’s bs and not sustainable. Choose a routine that won’t kill you when you get a little older. I can do muscle ups, headstand, handstands and all these calisthenics things but not that early in the morning without warmup
hit8run··on When will Apple ship other M2 Macs?
I was hoping so much for:

- Mac Pro.

- New XDR Display.

- More M2 product upgrades.

No new professional gear for devs at a developer conference :(

hit8run··on Show HN: Personal AI Writing Assistant for Mac
Why should one use this and not the OpenAI Playground itself? As far as I'm concerned I'm fine with having a website open. One does need an API key anyways.
hit8run··on Sunsetting Atom
I don’t think that is smart
hit8run··on Sunsetting Atom
Let them talk. You will do it no matter if they get it or not.
hit8run··on Sunsetting Atom
Did that happen to you? Sounds scary…
hit8run··on Apple Unveils M2
Not really a new chip version. Still 5nm.
hit8run··on Apple unveils all-new MacBook Air, supercharged by the new M2 chip
144hz 4K is common yes. 5k upwards there is nothing above 60hz.
hit8run··on Apple Unveils M2
Where is the new Mac Pro? Where is the upgrade to the XDR Display? Where is the M2 Mac Mini? What a shit show.
hit8run··on Apple unveils all-new MacBook Air, supercharged by the new M2 chip
I don’t buy 60hz displays in 2022. No way this comes without 120hz „Pro Motion“. Disgusting.
hit8run··on Google Interview Warmup
Yes, be a good trained puppy! Your mind was made to train giving the right answers to business recruitment experts! Learn what you should think and how to be a good A+ wagie!!! Follow the rules. Make the desired mindset your own! Remove your critical thinking and tell yourself: my whole purpose is to serve the globocorp stakeholders! If you do a good job you make them a ton of money so they can get new mega-yachts/mansions/islands/luxury! If you or the economy don’t do so well the next year it is utterly important to protect the stakeholder-wealth and remove you from the payroll :) Good and now go and train to give the answers they want to hear :)
hit8run··on Launch of the Ruby on Rails Tutorial 7th Edition
Is it not free anymore?
hit8run··on My students cheated... a lot
The whole capitalist system is broken. Not only the teaching part. Our world is ridiculously fucked up and we can count the days till it will collapse.
hit8run··on System Font Stack
Highly underrated comment.
hit8run··on 9-Euro-Ticket
The idea behind it is to keep the idiots commuting just to sit down in the wage cage 9000. It’s for three months only btw and just a trick to improve acceptance of the new German Poverty caused by very bad political decisions.
hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
Good tooling improves the artists workflow and results in most cases.
hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
You find the screen real estate sufficient? I hate developing on a small screen (especially for the web).
hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
Why use HDMI when there is USB-C or Thunderbolt? As far as I know 4k@60hz is max on HDMI. You are optimising the wrong thing here.
hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
Finish your studies and then you will get the chance to use better hardware :)

Color accuracy is super important to me whenever I need to design something on the frontend side of things. High resolution is important too because I'm working with my screens. That means that I stare many hours per day in the display. Life is too short for shitty hardware and most professionals in our industry or their companies can definitely afford it.

hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
These images are from 2012... That was 10 years ago. lol
hit8run··on The new and upgraded Framework Laptop
1080p !?! Wow I didn’t know that there are professionals out there using such a shitty resolution. You are definitely not the target audience for high quality hardware then I guess.
hit8run··on Bootstrap 5.2.0 Beta
Nice to see that css variables are now first class citizens.
hit8run··on The macOS editor Chime now supports Ruby
Matt is an awesome developer that keeps pushing his project passionately forward and also contributes to open source (e.g. LSP client for swift).
hit8run··on Ask HN: Does anyone care anymore what Google demos in IO?
They are in a weird spot of being a privacy invading company that creates products to protect your privacy.
hit8run··on Ask HN: Is DBA still a good job?
Question needs context:

- How do you define good job?

- You assume it was a good job by using still. Why was it ever a good job?

- What is your age?

- How long do you plan to stay in the industry before retiring?

- Are you passionate about it?

- Do you enjoy it?

- What do you want to achieve?

- What pay you expect?

- How much money you need for your lifestyle?

I could go on forever but in order to answer your own question (if it was not asked just to promote your business cloudsql or whatever) your need to answer these first.
