incompleteCode··on Radicle: Sovereign {code forge} built on Git
Congrats!

Maybe I'm not the target audience for this, so pardon my ignorance when I ask what problem does this solve? Centralization and censorship?

incompleteCode··on How long it takes to know if a job is right for you or not
Mildly is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. What does mildly depressed mean?
incompleteCode··on Gumroad's Interestingly Timed "Open-Source" Play
Are you referring to the co-founder of Loom? https://vinay.sh/i-am-rich-and-have-no-idea-what-to-do-with-...
incompleteCode··on Reintroductions of beavers into the wild in several parts of England
What’s the alternative here? No wolves and less biodiversity? That’s detrimental in the long-term.

The real issue here seems to be the forest fires that disturbed the wolves’ equilibrium.

incompleteCode··on Rise of the New York Tech Scene
> They might have some success because they put a slick interface over a shoddy backend, like Robinhood making a nice UI while farming out the actual clearing house work to a third party because they don't understand it.

Robinhood went self-clearing in 2018 and don’t “farm out” their clearing house work.

incompleteCode··on Use a work journal
(Full disclosure - I’m speaking from a place of privilege where I can afford the subscription cost of Obsidian)

I hear you on subscriptions rubbing you the wrong way. Hear me out, though. This is a bootstrapped team that builds and supports apps that empower you, the individual. Your data resides in plaintext and you can use your own sync server.

Not everything needs to be a subscription, but I don’t mind paying a few dollars per month to support the team.

Just my 2c.

incompleteCode··on AI Startups Are Making Their Home in New York
This has been my experience as well, although I’ve started hearing folks complain about wanting a slightly slower pace of life after living in NYC for a couple of years. Especially those who moved out of the Bay.
incompleteCode··on RSS and why I believe most people should come back using them
As someone with ADHD, I’m glad that the technology exists to create a RSS feed off a website even if the author intentionally doesn’t maintain one.

I don’t think “if it’s important you’ll remember it” is applicable to everyone.

incompleteCode··on BART to offer final rides on original equipment on April 20
I like it. It’s not deafening and has a unique profile.

Granted I haven’t traveled much, so I don’t know if it’s globally unique.

incompleteCode··on Intuit Is Closing Personal-Finance App Mint, Shifts Users to Credit Karma
I’m a huge fan of https://lunchmoney.app. Small (1?) team and gets the job done for me.
incompleteCode··on The Internals of Deno
What would you recommend reading if one wants to know more about Node.js event loops?
incompleteCode··on Marijuana addiction: those struggling often face skepticism
Yeah, I’m convinced that the concentration of THC found in products these days is unhealthy. I’m a weed user myself, but since legalization I haven’t had a great experience due to the high THC contents.

Where do you find the 3% THC in California? Hopefully, it’s someplace in the Bay Area.

incompleteCode··on Tell HN: The dragon compiler book (2nd edition) is a great book
Do you recommend a book that’s more up-to-date?
incompleteCode··on Is remote work bad for the economy?
There's an assumption you're making, which is the current model of cities, ie. a dense downtown area, is the right model.

This wouldn't be the case if we optimized for the right set of constraints - all of the places you mentioned being in walking distance. If there were more restaurants in the neighborhood, I'd eat out thrice a week at the very least.

incompleteCode··on Ask HN: What would be your stack if you are building an MVP today?
Anecdotal, but a co-worker’s parent works at NHIS and I’ve heard they’ve adopted Kubernetes.
incompleteCode··on I rewrote in Crystal my tool to quickly create Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner
That’s cost-effective! I’ve been toying with the idea of running a personal distributed system that’s not serverless to just hack around and Hetzner seems approachable going by your experience.
incompleteCode··on I rewrote in Crystal my tool to quickly create Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner
How much does this cost you on a monthly basis?
incompleteCode··on Ask HN: Those with money-making side projects,how did you come up with the idea?
Did not expect to see Lunar here. Thanks for creating it! :)
incompleteCode··on Ask HN: What skill do you want to develop or improve in 2023?
Maybe try being the change you wish to see and post an ambitious, or memorable, goal to inspire the rest of us. :)
incompleteCode··on The fall of Sam Bankman-Fried is crypto’s Enron moment
Elizabeth Holmes defrauded investors. SBF gambled with customer deposits. I’d say the stakes are higher.

Edit: fixed formatting.

incompleteCode··on ‘Click to Cancel’ legislation introduced in Pennsylvania
https://privacy.com - I don't use them as often as I should, but they do a great job.
incompleteCode··on Who Says C is Simple?
That only tells me that sweep shop consultancies are bad at writing good C code.
incompleteCode··on Real-Time Tokyo Subway Map
It seems even unrelated to map move. Just loading up the page injected 10 items onto the stack.
incompleteCode··on NPS doesn’t say anything particularly useful
IDK, in my experience NPS prioritization trends towards "hiring more people to focus on customer happiness."

Source: Worked in multiple startups that IPO'd using this as one of their 'growth strategies'

incompleteCode··on Tokyo police lose 2 floppy disks containing info on public housing applicants
Thank you!
incompleteCode··on Women force change at Indian iPhone plant
What makes you think India is _not_ industrialized?
incompleteCode··on Tokyo police lose 2 floppy disks containing info on public housing applicants
Do you have any citations for this? I'd love to explore in depth what the lateral tech track looks like.
incompleteCode··on Ask HN: I've lost faith in myself as a developer, how do I get it back?
This reminds me of a Buffet'ism (if you will): "it is better to be approximately right than precisely wrong."

I heard it on a podcast, though I'm pretty sure he didn't coin the phrase.

incompleteCode··on Computer-1 mini-ITX Chassis
And if they profited from it, isn't that enough? There's a market, however small, and they produced enough. I would argue that TE knows its customers really well.
incompleteCode··on The End of Retirement (2014)
My counterpoint to this is: it's worth it to regret the last few years than to regret it an entire lifetime. I know I'll regret kids.

Edit: Goes without saying that you'll need to plan for your retirement. I fully anticipate assisted suicide being a legal option during my old age.
