No signs of being AI-generated, and considering several parts of the [codebase of the website](https://github.com/rubyforgood/rubyforgood.org) haven't been touched since before ChatGPT was released, I think you might be barking up the wrong tree.

As someone who grew up in a flood-prone area… yeah. Yeah, they do. Sometimes more than once per person.

Can confirm; the cursor goes "beneath" the camera/mic indicator on the MacBook Neo.

Whoops. Not sure how I did that.

> We often hear that "people leave managers, not jobs." But sometimes, people leave jobs despite loving their managers.

These two aren’t really mutually exclusive. Your manager may be extremely friendly and accommodating to you personally (as it seems like the author’s manager was), but part of a manager’s job is growing and supporting their reports with their career goals. If you’ve spent years majorly underleveled like it seems this person did, your manager is failing you. No matter how much of a nice person they might be, they’re not doing their job well if you’re attempting to grow at the company and aren’t succeeding.

So yes, I do think that this person still left a manager. He left a manager who wasn’t meeting the needs he had to stay at the company.

MacBook Air, though the $379 price does seem to be a Black Friday deal: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Restored-Apple-MacBook-Air-13-Lap...

Seattle, at least, already has Waymo cars in the "human-driven data gathering" mode that this article is announcing.

For those unfamiliar with Apple’s new version-numbering system, this is the version that will be released in 2027, presumably around September or October of that year.

Between this and The Browser Company of New York (Arc, Dia) it seems like having a generic name is the way to get acquired these days.

If I’m remembering correctly, the original script he found had different emoji in the two lines (red X vs. green checkmark), but since HN comments strip emoji, pasting it here made them equivalent.

In a world where Vine is as successful as TikTok ended up being, who’s to say they get to a point where selling to Musk even happens?

I suspect most of GitHub's usage (by repo count, at least) is for closed-source software. It's just in private repositories.

Yeah, I was thinking "wow, this is well outside the HN title guidelines" but this feels like a case where humor might win the day.

> Starting from a white background

Possibly an incorrect assumption. As several of the screenshots in the article show, the default background color of the web back then was gray, not white.

If you go back far enough, they just don't have the issue at all! Running your "detect using cornerMask" script from another comment in this post, I have an app (https://www.haikuanimator.com/) that shows up green… because it's using Electron 2.0.8!

“attacker had used a shoe bomb”

It’s even dumber than that. An attacker tried and failed to use a shoe bomb, and yet his failure has caused untold hours of useless delay for over 13 years now.

I agree with your latter statement, but your choice of example feels weird to me… RSS was (and is) an open standard supported by an incredible number of both readers and publishers. How does it not meet your standards?
