i don't normally log in, or comment, on hackernews--and i normally don't ever comment negatively on things i see on the internet--but how is this news?

i am sick of seeing people fawn over people striving, and succeeding, at being capitalists.


It's CNBC, if you don't want to read this kind of garbage - and I agree with you, it's junk - don't read it. Pick your sources.

A better question might be why is it on HN? TBH, I'm actually more surprised that this is a billion dollar business, as far as I can tell, built on top of AirBnB. Why this one business over all the other companies that are managing multiple units on AirBnB?


Then why are you on the discussion board of a startup accelerator?


If you have a couple hours to spare, pull up the home page of foxnews.com or cnn.com and try to find the first article that isn't 1) broad national/global news (news covered by 100 other major outlets with the same facts that don't originate from the site), 2) submarine or bald-faced marketing(including viewpoint marketing), or 3) fluff human interest anecdotes(Jeanne Moos I'm looking at you).


But that's why I don't go to those sites, and come to HN instead.

Just like I don't look for something to eat in a latrine.


If you’re not a fan of capitalism you may want to find another website for your news rather than one started by a VC firm!


CatGirl GNU/Linux attempts to push forward the cause of LISP Machines in popularity and efficacy. Its components are:

    EMACS; if it runs on EMACS, it runs on CatGirl GNU/Linux.

    X11;

    EXWM.

    The GUIX System.


I am thinking of performing an experiment over the holidays: use EMACS as complete an operating system as possible. One problem I immediately have is: no OMEMO XMPP encryption inside EMACS!


Hello! I purchased a Pinephone, which was delivered in early September. It is the postmarketOS Community Edition model.

Please find a link to a HTTP proxy to my gemini capsule where I have reviewed my experiences with the phone. I have now been able to make it my daily driver phone, after doing a little distro hopping of the different Linuxes available for the phone.

I hope you find this gemlog useful (:
