Amen to that. Love Stanford. Cal has a ton of great stuff too.
> the American customs gulag
What does that mean? I've been to Cantor multiple times and nothing seemed out of the ordinary security wise.
- rswail 1y agoI think the poster meant for international travellers to get through the border.
- alephnerd 1y agoSeems a bit irrelevant but "you do you" to OP I guess.
- mmooss 1y agoA large portion of HN would have to cross an international border.
- alephnerd 1y agoMaybe, but this was a convo during "American" hours and largely in the American context. Late afternoon PST/EST tends to be when Asian and European HN is sleeping. Asian HN seems to start up around 10-11pm PST, European HN seems to peak around 3am-7am PST, and "Global" HN seems to be around 7am-10am PST.
- mmooss 1y agoYou based your comment on the current time around the world? :) Maybe the person you responded to was up late or early or was referring to people who might be asleep. Do they not exist if they are asleep?
- alephnerd 1y ago> You based your comment on the current time around the world? :) Yep! HN's tone has massive shifts depending on the time of usage, and basically turns into entirely different forums. > Do they not exist if they are asleep? That's more of a Descartes question than a me question /s But yea fair.
- burnt-resistor 1y agoThey appear to be from or in the UK, so they cannot just teleport themselves across borders, at least not yet.
- alephnerd 1y agoAh! I assumed they were in the US given the time!
- burnt-resistor 1y agoNo worries.
