ChatGPT was dropped on us just bit over 24 hours. It's like you wake up to the news of first nuclear explosion and you don't know yet what to think about it but you know world will never be the same again. Here some interesting snapshots of this "explosion"🧵:

Okay, entanglement and spooky action at a distance. Let me give you my version of the best way to think about it. One's mileage, as ever, is permitted to vary. (1/n)

.@watware and @peterbe recently added an autocomplete search to MDN Web Docs, that allows you to quickly jump straight to the document you’re looking for by typing parts of the document title. *Spoiler Alert* very cool “easter egg” feature included hacks.mozilla.org/2021/08/md…

I'm getting fed up of articles that attribute a decline in mental health during the pandemic to people working from home. How about a year where we all work from home but we can see friends, travel, go to shows, restaurants, go to the gym, and THEN see how mental health is doing?

Curious about how MDN's site search works? @peterbe breaks down the process. tl;dr: The site-search page is a static single-page app that sends XHR requests to the /api/v1/search endpoint. Search results’ sort-order is determined by match and “popularity”hacks.mozilla.org/2021/03/ho…

I'm going to start a company that offers a service to recruiters. Plug in your candidate's HN username and I'll tell you if they've ever had a comment flagged. Think of how much time this would save.

If you don't like protests in the streets, one good way to prevent them would be to eliminate racism, brutality, and inequality.

Hugs to Twitter engineering who had to deal with their security incident. Frowns at Twitter comms for phrasing this to sound like it was somehow Firefox's fault.
