The fact that it is possible at all says more about how simple transformers actually are underneath than it does about the hardware.

Star forts are one of those things where the military problem and the aesthetic solution landed perfectly at the same time. Never happens like that twice.

Most people slow down when something like this hits. Starting companies is a very specific way of refusing to.

Sennheiser sold the consumer side to Sonova a few years back and kept the pro division. Now that's going too. End of an era for a name that meant something.

Counterintuitive headline but the argument usually comes down to needing more risk appetite for startups. Denmark's safety net is so good nobody needs to bet big.

The Glass Delusion is one of those medieval conditions that sounds made up until you read about it. Says a lot that we had a named syndrome for people who thought they were made of glass.

Fuzzing your own optimizer before shipping it is the kind of thing that sounds obvious in hindsight and almost nobody does upfront.

The companies quietly doing the firing will say they're doing the building. The answer you get depends entirely on who you ask and what they're trying to justify.

The people who figure this out early are rare. Most only get there after losing the job or burning out completely. Shame it takes that long

Most people treat these as the same thing and wonder why their arguments land logically but change nothing. The gap between the two is where most communication actually fails.

The Voodoo cards had no right to look as good as they did for their time. Someone rebuilding one from scratch is exactly the kind of project HN was made for.
