The HN thread full of hilarious „I know better“ alphas and corporate conspiracy fans.

It is fun to explore what is good. It is childish to fight over what is best.

The economy idea that life is competition, that we are in a „lifeboat“ universe where everything needs to be ranked, is toxic.

So, our little curl HTTP/3 benchmark made it to the orange site.

Mostly positive comments, only a small thread about C vs. Rust. I wish more people were aware that ‚cargo‘, rust‘s build tool, is using libcurl to get all the rust packages you need.💁🏻♂️

Same btw. when you use ‚git‘ with https: urls. It‘s a bit more ubique than people think.😌

You can now ask Bard about youtube videos.

A cocktail recipe gets turned into >10 minute video, sprinkled with ads, protected by adblocker-blockers, to be digested by AI, analyzed via state of the art cpu arrays, to extract the original cocktail recipe for further marketing.

Collectively, we are an amazingly dumb species.
