Doesn't it count as paranoia if it already happened?

Show HN: VimSweeper – Minesweeper with Vim Motions

theanti9 — Sat, 06 Jul 2024 07:05:28 +0000

This was a quick weekend project to make a basic minesweeper that I can play with vim motions, mostly because I like minesweeper to keep my hands busy, but playing with a mouse or trackpad makes my wrists hurt pretty quickly. Thought some others here might enjoy as well :)

Written in C with Raylib, for anyone curious.

As the US citizen partner to an immigrant who now has their green card from our marriage, it was anything but simple. It is definitely the simplest way, by far, but it is not simple. It was very eye opening to me to see the journey from the inside.

For me this was the final nail in the coffin for the "Elon's just playing 4D chess we don't understand" argument and really just shows that he's a dude that thinks he can do whatever he wants with no consequences, because so far there haven't really been any.

If there were a logic to it, I'd guess that it's more important he make the interest payments on the billions of dollars in loans he took out for the purchase than it is to not get sued for non-payment of a lease.

> "Elon doesn't pay rent"

Among the many absolutely bonkers things in there, Elon appears to believe he just doesn't need to pay for things.

New comment by theanti9 in "Imgur Updates TOS, Banning NSFW Content"

theanti9 — Thu, 20 Apr 2023 04:03:00 +0000

FWIW, Reddit's new limits are about 3rd party use of their data/APIs. As a regular user, it doesn't really change anything (unless you consume Reddit NSFW content exclusively through a 3rd party app, I guess), so a pretty different case than Imgur's change here, which fundamentally shifts their user-base.

This happened to me as well. bunch of random @yahoo addresses (I don't have one of those) and rando phone numbers, none of which were mine. Welp.... who knows wtf they have in there then, I guess.

New comment by theanti9 in "Ask HN: How did you deal with depression?"

theanti9 — Tue, 21 Jul 2015 23:50:26 +0000

Having spent a long time on medication for depression in the past, I can verify this. There's a lot you can do to help yourself before trying medication. Exercise and learning to manage your emotions are a great place to start and can help a lot more than most people think. It definitely has a time and place, but the side effects can be a lot more drastic (and sometimes detrimental) than a lot of people expect.

I think the overall design does looks great; very polished and well done. Although I will admit, the background is a tad retina burning at night on a bright screen (at least for me).

Ask HN: Interesting Ideas You're Too Lazy To Persue

theanti9 — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 02:49:09 +0000

I end up with a lot of cool ideas for projects, but I often discover that they are way beyond my skill range or I just lose interest in them after a while. What are your ideas like this?
