> does the loud, audible click of a mechanical keyboards increase the user's accuracy?

I am consistently 30wpm slower on my mech than I am on my laptop keyboard. I heavily regret buying this keyboard, even.

Yes.

Significantly better than nothing.

Yes

I see this is downvoted for going against the HN narrative that Twitter is worse than Hitler.

I wonder how people can think "we must let the companies oppress us as hard as possible or else they will fuck us entirely" and not think we live in a literal dystopia.

As we all know, GDP per capita is a very representative stat of how good your life is.

My timeline is completely in-order and I don't see ads.

Hardly. I only follow ~50ish people, of which I only interact regularly with ~9ish. I only block a few people a day max.

I like twitter. I'm in the minority here, but I genuinely do. I keep my timeline curated, I am very very liberal with blocks and mutes of anyone who vaguely annoys me, and I enjoy using it.

Hacker News and Reddit comments have made me sure that comments are never a good thing.

> If you have a personal website with analytics (even your own), suddenly you need to display some cookie warning. If you allow comments all of a sudden you need to follow GDPR.

Not having both of those is a good thing, so I see no downside.

> Nature doesn't exists in the modern city, I wouldn't even be surprised if some people born after 2000 haven't seen stars in their entire life.

I live in London. The stars are still clearly visible here.

> Why would you suppress your bodies signals that something is wrong

Because after so many years of living you realise your body is utter shit at sending the right signals.

Regular reminder that Hacker News automatically removes content the community doesn't like. Think about that before complaining on Hacker News about YouTube removing videos.

If we let other people's principles guide ourselves, we will end up as the absolute worst of society in no time.

No true capitalism.

In fact most private healthcare delegates back to the NHS anyway.

No.

> It was a 10% pay cut, but to compensate for that they offered 3 additional weeks of vacation (five total).

Hell country.

Firefox with uBlock O I get 0.9. Don't know what everyone else here is talking about.

> Let's hope the future learns people that most of these instagram shots are basically digital waste.

That's very condescending of you. Lots of people like having real visual memories of places they've been.

I suspect you won't get a good response posting this on HN.

We must secure the existence of civil argument and a future for healthy discourse

> Capitalism is the reason our world is much more comfortable today than ever

At any given point I'm one week away from homelessness or starvation. Having skin cancer is better than having pancreatic cancer - but neither of them are good.

I'll make sure to put it in my note that there's nothing they couldve done to change it.

Living does irrepairable damage to me.

Climate change and capitalism.

I don't really care about living, so I don't care about fixing the problems.

Why would it be a bad thing to kill myself?
