We're flush with new and awesome terminals lately, Ghostty public launch now a huge upgrade to fish.

I've tried Fish a few times but hard to migrate over from bash/zsh. Does anyone have tips on how to port over a bunch of aliases/scripts/etc. easily?

I love this. DDD is a great tool for the right job. Unfortunately I've often seen it used for strange use cases that don't fit.

I am and I'm not willing to pay for that. Love the idea but it seems greedy to charge for freely available text-content. r/daddit acts as a pretty good aggregator of this info already (downside - you have to go on reddit).

If you are medicating for anxiety it's not that simple. What is the persistent cognitive effect of chronic stress/anxiety and is that greater than the effect from cannabis.

I've mostly lost faith in the ability of my country to have an orderly, happy society together at this point. As a recovering agoraphobic I can easily see the same disordered thinking that was once the core of my own mind not only present in other people, but lauded on the news and in mainstream culture.

Here's to hoping things get better, but knowing that the nuts run the nuthouse now.

Bummed I had to scroll this far into the thread to see some reason.

This is horrifying if it did happen but I don't know Yifan and I don't know Jon Pretty nor the trustworthiness of either.

It's disturbing to see HN readers jump to conclusions so quickly without proper evidence. If we continue to reduce our capacity for assessment of a situation to individual anecdotal accounts what kind of world will we live in 5 years from now?

Do dukes do anything? Why do we care enough to post this news here?

Truly a dystopian world we are entering. Now more than ever is the time for funding and developing alternative tools that utilize decentralization.

What's coming cannot be stopped but it can be broken.

I was dissapointed to open the app again - I had been using it frequently when I switched to paper thought-records. When I reopened it I was greeted with a paywall.

Alternatives on iOS exist such as Thought Record that are free. Until there is an obvious value proposition that differs from free alternatives, I see no need to pay merely for a 'quirkier' interface.
