Ask HN: What notably hasn't changed in the past 10 years?

17•cjbarber•3mo ago
This is the Bezos question. Seeing Emacs on the frontpage made me think of asking this. Emacs is pretty similar today to how it was 10 years ago. What else?

Craigslist has basically remained the same, at least in terms of UI/UX, for the past 25 years.

But a vastly different user experience, with the loss of missed connections and personals due to passage of SESTA/FOSTA

laundry
muzani•3mo ago
I'm middle aged and home appliances are the luxury purchase. Irons, ovens, vacuums, everything changed. But laundry didn't.

I live near the equator, so dryers are a luxury and clotheslines are the norm. We still don't buy dryers. Not even so much for the cost, but because they damage clothes in a way.

And even with Robert Kiyosaki's Cashflow promoting laundromats as the key to financial independence, they're not used significantly more than they were in the past.

Anything that is not tech pretty much keeps the same process. Think schools, voting, hospitals, etc.

Almost all the news from Washington in the last 9 months suggests that the process of government in the USA is now radically different. And similar changes have happened in more than a few other countries.

We now all know that any time or expenses spent commuting to an office, just to sit in front of a computer is a complete waste of time.

I expect commercial real estate to implode, along with the cities that count on it as most of their tax base.

This changed significantly with the co-working space boom, bust during COVID, remote work burnout, and somehow we've receded to a 2015 state.

I'm not sure human nature changed much in the last 10 years.
sunscream89•3mo ago
It has.

A secret war has culled the scrupulous from Power, and left the opportunistic immoralists you would think the industrialization of Power by Americans would perfect.

Ordinary people are enjoying their happy life. The comforts, the convenience, the prosperity.

The world slow burns and it takes ten years to see the consequences of what has come to pass.

We will not come to collectively see the world for what it is today, for ten years.

React went from class components to functional components, but it’s still react. The JavaScript landscape has matured. Finally.

vim is pretty similar.

keyboards and mice are much the same.

people's laziness and love of convenience.

Emacs had many changes in the last decade, even very deep changes. What did not change is its fundamental concept, the foundation. And this is probably true for most software. They barely change on a fundamental level after a certain age, just receiving more features, sometimes remove some, or rework the look.

So the question is, that is recognized as a real change? Did Chrome change? Seems overall the same to me. Did Firefox change, might depend on whom you ask. It changed it's internal with Quantum significantly, switched their extensions-system, added multiprocessing, but on surface, for the normal user, it's probably all the same.

Bitcoin hasn't changed. We still hate it, it still exists, and it's still working exactly like 10 years ago.
