Quote: 'The source page will no longer load up in an iframe in the background of the image detail view.'

Protest is growing as the traffic to the source sites heavily decreases (see the comments section).

I would have chosen this on the top of the list!

Simply ask yourself:

What did you feel in the last time when you followed a link and the result was one of these filtered images?

Evolution will overcome this. We still drink water.

You miss a point: When you take an image in the way of preview and shot, your image is like you felt it should be (or not).

Paste it over by a click and this feeling is disassociated from your pic (or as the author states: not real).

mono | 15 years ago | on: Ask HN: Am I the only one who can't create a startup at the weekend?

Completely agree. "Weekend" projects don't come up when you wake up on Saturday morning and are ready for sale on Monday.

My comment was caused as I observe an increasing number of these "weekend" or "side-project" messages at HN. For me it looks like the authors are too cautious to stand for their project as something that took all their attention and that still may have mistakes.

What follows is an inflationary trend that most "Show HN" posts are declared as minute-jobs and we lose the open culture of a showroom, where the other mates take your work serious and try to positively criticise it. Not long, and we have sidecars only.

I think it is not important how long one needs for a project shown here. The message transported with the timeline is else "look I'm a genious" or "sorry, all the remaining bugs are from a lack of time".

I have to remark, that I don't think of any particular posts in the last time and I know that I may include projects in my generalization that don't deserve it. This hasn't been my intention. And my original confession to be a bad hacker is still valid!

mono | 15 years ago | on: Python Stuff

Beside one JSON interpreter from 2011 all the stuff there is 4 years and older. Not the most actual source for Python on Mac...

mono | 15 years ago | on: Redis: the AK-47 of databases

The total number of the AK-type rifles made worldwide during the last 50 years is estimated at 90+ millions. Does the title implies that Redis will handle this amount of values too?
