On Mexico’s Caribbean Coast, There’s Lobster for the Tourists and Microplastics for Everyone Else

wired.com Ricardo Hernández 2026-02-12 15:42:39

The fishermen of Puerto Morelos, on Mexico’s Caribbean coast, risk their lives every time they head out to sea to fish or dive for lobsters. Their bounty is dependent on luck, as the weather often makes it impossible to go out, while on other days the hooks they cast come back empty. These workers set out every day to find the best lobsters possible for the affluent vacationers who come to the region, while they and their families, cut off from many of the benefits of tourism development, get by

Uncommon Uses of Python in Commonly Used Libraries (2022)

news.ycombinator.com Eugene Yan 2026-02-08 17:12:07

To learn how to build more maintainable and usable Python libraries, I’ve been reading some of the most widely used Python packages. Along the way, I learned some things about Python that are off the beaten path. Here are a few things I didn’t know before. Using super() in base classes Python’s super() lets us inherit base classes (aka super or parent classes) without having to explicitly refer to the base class. It’s usually used in the __init__ method. While this might be simply a nice-to-ha

Playdate Season 2 review: Taria & Como and Black Hole Havoc

We've officially made it to the end of Playdate Season Two, and what a season it's been. Despite having half the number of titles as Season One, this latest round of weekly game releases has made a much stronger impression (on me, at least). If nothing else, it's just been cool to experience the new games in real time with other Playdate owners all at once, which the staggered rollout of the console didn't really allow for with the first season.

Lessons from creating my first text adventure

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-09 16:48:19

It’s very easy to accidentally try to create too large a text adventure. My first attempt was way too ambitious, and would have taken months to finish. I still love the idea for that, but it had to go. I picked another idea that was much smaller in scope, but it, too, grew too ambitious. I restarted one more time, from an idea that was even more pared down, and I was actually able to finish that game. With the minimalistic scope it took maybe fifteen hours of active work to create most of the ga

Nobody has a personality anymore: we are products with labels

news.ycombinator.com Freya India 2026-02-12 12:16:37

Therapy-speak has taken over our language. It is ruining how we talk about romance and relationships, narrowing how we think about hurt and suffering, and now, we are losing the words for who we are. Nobody has a personality anymore. In a therapeutic culture, every personality trait becomes a problem to be solved. Anything too human—every habit, every eccentricity, every feeling too strong—has to be labelled and explained. And this inevitably expands over time, encompassing more and more of us,

Elon Musk's fanboys are furious at the billionaire for giving them bad betting advice on Polymarket. Back when there was still a slight chance that Tesla might pull off a public Robotaxi launch by the end of June, the multi-hyphenate billionaire prognosticated on X-formerly-Twitter that betting against the haters on the crypto-based prediction platform would be a "money-making opportunity."
