What? It’s a paid for service.

Are the ads served from the same place as the video content itself?

randomguy0··on Tailwind is a leaky abstraction
I imagine you’d have to use underscores for spaces, otherwise you actually have 3 different classes there.
randomguy0··on People have been having less sex, whether they’re teenagers or 40-somethings
Man, that’s wild. I don’t know anybody that feels this way. It almost reads as sarcasm.

What would your suggestions be in place of React?

Increasingly over the last week or so I forget that I’m scrolling HackerNews and not Reddit when I read comments like OPs. I mean this literally and not in jest. Is anybody else noticing more low effort / group-think / karma-farming comments lately?
randomguy0··on Twitter has suspended the launch of Twitter Blue
Who is whining about being cancelled? Who is complaining about being the real victim? Who is doubling down? Did you respond to the wrong thread?

No. They are not “real people” in the sense of a “town square.”

The hate boner for Musk on this website has become ridiculous. Be better.

Having a real person / entity tied to the posts seems pretty reasonable to me and doesn’t have much to do with free speech.

randomguy0··on Musk’s first email to Twitter staff ends remote work
I’m not sure if I’m comfortable judging the “fairness of critiquing”, but it’s a business under new ownership. Changes are going to happen.
randomguy0··on Musk’s first email to Twitter staff ends remote work
The one-sidedness of the comments in this thread surprise me.

If you want to work remotely, don’t work at Twitter.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with Musk thinking it’s more beneficial for his employees to work in the office. He has goals and methods of working towards them. He wants likeminded people to work towards those goals.

Can you really not think of pros and cons of either situation? To give my opinion, if I ran a business that I was trying to grow or trying to meet lofty goals, I’d probably have people in the office too. However, I see upsides to working from home too.

I’ve been working remotely since the beginning of COVID and currently work 2,000 miles away from my work.

randomguy0··on Ask HN: Are web sites more buggy than their corresponding native apps?
Is this building more prone to falling apart than that building? Depends how it was built. In other words, no.
randomguy0··on Optimizing images with the HTML <picture> tag
As a secondary tip: I believe you need to make sure that one of width or height is set to “auto” (in CSS). There was a good post on this on either CSS Tricks or SmashingMagazine. If I get some time I’ll try to find it and link it.
randomguy0··on Optimizing images with the HTML <picture> tag
Set width and height to the ratio of the image to prevent those layout shifts.

Yeah, sure. Maybe heed your own advice.

randomguy0··on Modern PHP features – PHP 8.0 and 8.1
What am I missing? Isn’t that the output that makes sense? Or am I misunderstanding your comment about it being hacky?
randomguy0··on Next.js 13
Because that’s how screen readers know the image is decorative. It literally is/improves accessibility.

randomguy0··on Cloudflare Queues
Didn’t they just have some other week where they announce new products for an entire week once a year? I feel like this might be the ~3rd time this year, but maybe I’m going crazy.
randomguy0··on Show HN: Doxx Me – See how doxxable your phone number is
Because “100% guarantee” doesn’t actually mean anything i.e. they have protection in some shape or form.
randomguy0··on Ask HN: What CMS are you using in 2022?
Statamic has been great for us.
