sourcecodeplz··on Pulsar – A Community-Led Hyper-Hackable Text Editor
Have used: dreamweaver, vi, nano, notepad, ++, atom and sublime.

Sublime so soo superior, it's not even fair. Haven't tried vscode but I understand it's a resource hog.

sourcecodeplz··on SpaceX Raises Starlink Prices for Some Subscribers
When will us in the EU ever be able to significantly compete with the US? You guys have all the cool things and when you don't, you just buy them outright coz your currency is so strong and wide-spread, you can just print as much as you want without worrying about significant inflation.

Meanwhile, we have rules and regulations. Oh, and bicycles.

sourcecodeplz··on Apple orders entire supply of TSMC's 3nm chips for iPhone 15 Pro and M3 Macs
It's good to have deep pockets...
sourcecodeplz··on Last undersea Internet cable connecting Vietnam with the world breaks down
Tit for tat. You take out nord stream we take out internet. /s?
sourcecodeplz··on Poste.io – Complete Mail Server
If I want to send unlimited emails from my domain (not 500 max or 2000 per day) and I don't want to worry about hacks AND don't want to pay for overages, simple shared hosting is the (cheapest) way!?
sourcecodeplz··on Eventually ChatGPT will eat itself
Not really if you think about it more and research how llms work. If anything they will just get better.

I used to think the same but after reading and learning some more, I realized not.

sourcecodeplz··on Microsoft is now injecting full-size ads on Chrome website
They've got a taste of browser market share with the new Bing (since the days of IE) and are now foaming at the mouth ...
sourcecodeplz··on Reddit should have to identify users discussing piracy, film studios tell court
Nah, you can always argue that a hacker did it or some friend that was staying overnight used the computer, legally speaking.

Morally? That is different.

sourcecodeplz··on Reddit should have to identify users discussing piracy, film studios tell court
Where there's a will, there's a way. If people want to discuss something that is "banned" they will just use replacement words or find another place.
sourcecodeplz··on Vinyl Chloride and the Ohio Train Derailment
What are credible images anyway nowadays? The source of the images is what gives them credibility. A person that you trust.
sourcecodeplz··on How to Start Your Blog in 2023
Just use Blogger. Unlimited everything and full HTML, CSS, Javascript control for every page/post/category. Plus it's free and been around since '99.
sourcecodeplz··on The Political Bias of ChatGPT – Extended Analysis
I don't need to read the article to know the bot is left leaning. There is just more left-leaning material online than other.

As one grows older, one learns to view things from different perspectives but it could be "dangerous" for young people to rely entirely on what they read online. This is where upbringing has its most impactful role: Family & friends. Online is not family, online is not friends.

sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: How good is Google's Bard?
Any user that would reply with actual knowledge would be a signal that he/she is/was working at Google.

I think that is why it got deleted, how can we comment on something we don't have access to?

sourcecodeplz··on Biggest Barrier to Biking Is a Fear of Cars
And for good reason ... that's why they have bicycle lanes in west EU all over the place.
sourcecodeplz··on Show HN: Link Book – Quickly save links from around the web to GitHub
It can be. Providing the tool to do something illegal, with the sole purpose of the tool being to do something illegal, is illegal. Check out the YouTube DL project history/controversy.
sourcecodeplz··on Show HN: Link Book – Quickly save links from around the web to GitHub
I was considering this when building my own link saver but copyright is so tricky.

On one hand: when you load an URL the contents are already loaded (copied) into your device (browser).

On the other: doing it intentionally is not legal, if you don't have the Right to make a Copy.

Tricky stuff. I was considering making the place you save the contents private but then again when you provide this kind of tool you could get in trouble.

Would like to hear what others think about this.

Maybe naming it "archive"? I understand that's how archive.org gets away with it.

sourcecodeplz··on GitHub is aggressively caching raw.github, breaking many use cases
This. I know I've used it as a static file hosting service before. The cache problem was real then too. Can't complain though.
sourcecodeplz··on Correlation between the use of swearwords and code quality in open source code? [pdf]
Using swear words often, in public settings or without any real distress situation is in my opinion a mark of the uneducated / "bad" upbringing.

Sure, you let some steam out. I understand that but why put in writing?

sourcecodeplz··on Tell HN: Don't Be Afraid of Yandex
Nobody is immune to propaganda, some are just more susceptible than others. But if you're not capable of personal agency you shouldn't be online anyway.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: How do you find stuff on the internet now?
No, they steal your toothbrush.
sourcecodeplz··on Reinventing search with a new AI-powered Microsoft Bing and Edge
Not really, you can always publish your content in an Ebook and sell it. The minimum word count for KDP is 2500 words.
sourcecodeplz··on Visual design rules you can safely follow
This was such a great article. No fluff, just great compacted design tips (rules).
sourcecodeplz··on Microsoft announces new Bing and Edge browser powered by upgraded ChatGPT AI
It worked for me after trying a few times. Not in the US.
sourcecodeplz··on Bing ChatGPT Leak
It's gonna be a long time before people use bing as a verb too. Plus many people use Google as the address bar, I think Google is still the top search on Google.
sourcecodeplz··on Ask HN: Employers, why do you want us back in the office?
I like the office...
sourcecodeplz··on 7.8 magnitude earthquake hits Turkiye
Why not?
sourcecodeplz··on Microsoft announces surprise event for tomorrow with Bing ChatGPT expected
Annoying or not, this "fight" only helps us, the users. Monopolies suck!
sourcecodeplz··on ChatGPT writes functional WordPress plugins for simple tasks
I experienced the same thing with a small PHP project. After some iterations it just completely changed course and wrote the project completely differently.
sourcecodeplz··on How much can you get out of a $4 VPS?
They are there but rarely in stock. Also they start from $6.10 now.
sourcecodeplz··on How much can you get out of a $4 VPS?
But then again you have to monitor the health of the drives as opposed to a VPS.
