Being too ambitious is a clever form of self-sabotage

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-09 17:11:24

There is a moment, just before creation begins, when the work exists in its most perfect form in your imagination. It lives in a crystalline space between intention and execution, where every word is precisely chosen, every brushstroke deliberate, every note inevitable, but only in your mind. In this prelapsarian state, the work is flawless because it is nothing: a ghost of pure potential that haunts the creator with its impossible beauty. This is the moment we learn to love too much.

The Novelty of the Arpanet

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-06 04:48:24

If you run an image search for the word “ARPANET,” you will find lots of maps showing how the government research network expanded steadily across the country throughout the late ’60s and early ’70s. I’m guessing that most people reading or hearing about the ARPANET for the first time encounter one of these maps. Obviously, the maps are interesting—it’s hard to believe that there were once so few networked computers that their locations could all be conveyed with what is really pretty lo-fi car

We're Not Innovating, We're Just Forgetting Slower

news.ycombinator.com About Brian Tristam Williams 2025-08-10 06:13:25

We’ve mistaken complexity for progress — and forgotten how things really work. A 41-year-old home computer still boots instantly, while today’s “smart” tech buckles under its own abstractions. My Texas Instruments TI-99/4A Home Computer still boots. Forty-one years after I first plugged it into our family’s wood-grain TV, it fires up in less than two seconds, ready to accept commands in TI BASIC. No updates required. No cloud connectivity.

I want to leave tech: what do I do?

news.ycombinator.com Conjure Utopia 2025-08-10 20:58:49

Let’s say you’re working in tech and you have a technical role: you’re a programmer, a graphic or UI/UX designer, a sysadmin, maybe even a product manager. Let’s say you want to leave, change career, and do something more meaningful with your skills. Your motivations may vary: you feel the tech industry produces nothing of value, or maybe you have the legitimate suspicion that what you build helps bomb innocent people somewhere.

Amazon’s Best Portable Monitor Is Nearly 50% Off, Feels Like Prime Day Already Started

gizmodo.com Joe Tilleli 2025-08-10 21:10:09

Just because you’re a work-from-home employee does not mean you need to be working specifically from home. You can feasibly work from anywhere that has an internet connection if you’d be so inclined. What stops me from getting out more often is that I don’t find myself as productive as when I’m at my desk at home. I’ve built a pretty robust workspace for myself with three large monitors so I can see everything I’m working on at once. When tied to just my laptop screen, I feel restrained. That is

I'm Still Obsessed With This Cult Conspiracy Thriller and Now It's on Netflix

Every once in a while, a TV show comes out of nowhere and changes the very fabric of the medium. Off the top of my head, I can think of five: Twin Peaks, Lost, The Sopranos, Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad. After Vince Gilligan's hit drug drama ended in 2013, I wondered what series would capture the cultural zeitgeist next. The answer came in the form of an edgy show about the internet, of all things. It starred a relatively unknown character actor as a flawed, neurodivergent hacker genius who

Flounder Mode – Kevin Kelly on a different way to do great work

news.ycombinator.com Brie Wolfson 2025-08-12 00:18:01

Kevin Kelly isn’t known for one ‘big thing’, and doesn’t aspire to be. He’s as intelligent, hard-working, ambitious, and prescient as history’s most iconic entrepreneurs—only without any interest in building a unicorn himself. Instead, in his words, he works “Hollywood style”—in a series of creative projects. What follows is a sampling of his life’s work. Kelly was an editor for the Whole Earth Catalog in the early 1980s, helped start WELL, one of the first online communities, in 1985, and co-f

Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ Would Leave Millions Without Health Insurance

wired.com Emily Mullin 2025-08-12 06:57:18

Senate Republicans on Tuesday passed President Donald Trump’s sprawling tax and spending package, known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” paving the way for a major overhaul of the country’s Medicaid program. If passed by the House, which could happen before the July Fourth holiday, millions of people stand to lose their health insurance. The number of people without health insurance in the United States nearly halved from 2013 to 2023, falling from around 14 percent to a record low of less than

AI job predictions become corporate America’s newest competitive sport

A new WSJ story highlights how other CEOs are also issuing dire predictions about AI’s job impact, turning employment doom into something of a competitive sport. Several of these prediction
