Humanity was fracking dopamine from art by first painting on cave walls, then oil on canvas, and eventually we got cinematography and video games. Author sounds like a luddite. Feel free to paint on cave walls. Nothing's happening to real strawberries either.

Lately I've noticed posts with barely 10 points getting to HN frontpage. Was it always like this?

A raspberry zero is more powerful than an enterprise server from the 1990s. A minimalist static website is not impressive. You can fit way more in there.

Mullvad becoming popular with huge ad campaigns is very sus. Either way I don't use it anymore because its ip ranges are banned on most websites.

This can be done and it's called a zero knowledge proof (ZKP) in cryptography. And it's starting to be used in crypto wallets to verify humanity.

Amber doesn't smell at all. "Amber" scent in perfumery is more like a vibe thing.

I'm positive those trucks are self driven. There is no need for draconian measures you hoped for. Spaceship engineers aren't forced to go into space.

Cool. Currently on some websites I hit TAB until I reach the needed button/input. Try it right now on hacker news.

New comment by MitPitt in "Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy"

MitPitt — Mon, 22 Sep 2025 14:53:24 +0000

These 2 projects are so different in complexity. Ladybird is a foundational ground-up browser, meanwhile Omarchy is just an opinionated arch setup. I wonder why they were both mentioned in one article.

New comment by MitPitt in "Ask HN: Dark Mode for HN?"

MitPitt — Thu, 18 Sep 2025 18:32:28 +0000

Stylus extension with Catpuccin theme for HN. Stylus has a bunch of other themes available too. For other websites too. IDK if I trust the proxy websites people are posting in other comments. And they're not comfortable to use with RSS feeds.

On the contrary, do people who live high above for years have any trouble when coming back down?

Awesome! I remember seeing Datamosh 2 plugin for After Effects, but didn't know it used this open source project. Turns out there is a whole bunch of GUIs for ffglitch: https://ffglitch.org/frontends/
