Hey fellow Torontonian! I know people in the OSINT / Arms Control space and they'd probably be interested in something like this, but without a pricing page or API documentation I can't really vet what's possible with yo

The New Yorker has some absolutely great pieces and a huge budget for journalism, but that said, I find their writers self-indulge a bit more than I find pleasant. The Walrus doesn't have as many block buster journalistic pieces, but t

This sounds like an oncoming case of depression or possibly even a mild ongoing case. Also could be burnout or in addition to burnout. If you can take a month off and see a doctor I'd recommend it. The faster you can get ahead of this

I disagree that news should be free, but the present situation is crazy. I'd pay a healthy (~$50?) amount of money per month if there was something that just worked in my browser and paid serious news orgs some percentage of my money w

When I say "hasn't really started yet" I really mean it. China gutted Nortel here in Canada, and they've been hacking and ripping off IP wherever they can, but realistically this is nothing close to the scale of the Cold

Yes. It's settled science. CO2 is not the only gas that matters, but it's the major one and most of the feedback loops are not in our favour. Read some of the technical reports, they're not that hard to understand.

I'm Canadian. The reason the press focusses on it so much is that it is, thus far, the only real step that the west is taking against Chinese hegemony. It's expensive and it's real. The rest of Cold War 2.0 hasn't really

Fun story, I once tried to convince a new friend of mine that his startup that I'd landed a small consulting gig with should focus on how it could make the world better, not just go after profits, because I could clearly see that what

But people avoid having a second, third, or fourth child if they know they can't afford it. Bringing in epithets from the 70s isn't helpful. The original commentator was clearly offering an opinion that wasn't rooted in racis

I actually disagree with you. I think I would still feel disgusted but I would get over it and get the organ anyway. It's not a rational thing.

Honestly, maybe it has something to do with a similar revulsion I have to bestiality. I think some of these things are hardwired.

I'm not saying it's rational, but I have some sort of deep seated disgust for these types of transplants. Intellectually I know we don't have enough donations to match the demand and in my own life I've given blood and s

I echo these sentiments. It's a truly surreal experience if you're comfortable with firearms.

I generally don't like discussing religion on HN, so apologies if I decline to respond to a reply, but the description of God in the Bible doesn't really fit with Spinoza's God for the mere fact that evil is wholly set apart.

My guess: There's a small inaccuracy in the map data (I can think of a number possible ways this could happen) leading the cars to think that the dead end road connects somehow to where they want to go, but it doesn't. So they giv

It isn't really a Triad these days. It's more like a hexaiad when you consider the various forms that nuclear weapons can take. But as to your question, silos benefit from very reliable coms. It's possible to communicate to s

No study will convince me about music and my personal ability to focus. It needs to be the right music (Emancipator, Nicola Cruz, etc) but I can write 2000 to 5000 lines of high quality, tested code with the right song on repeat for the day

Sorry, I'm not American so this may be a dumb question, but why set your salary to $160k instead of what it actually is? Does it have to do with US tax law or non-profit org law?

He posted proof here: https://www.reddit.com/r/YangForPresidentHQ/comments/q2khwm/... Not sure if it will stay up or not, but it's convinced me.

If you go to the subreddit you can see that a moderator posted that. If someones a moderator I'm much more likely to believe the rest of this.

Edit: Proof accepted. Thank you! Sorry, but I'd like some proof about, really, any of this. For example, that you were a moderator of his official subreddit. I dislike Yang making a third party, but this is a pretty hefty charge.

You definitely still can. Zerodium pays "up to" $500k for them.

I was the original author of the Pycon Canada Articles of Association back when we were starting it, which included a section on conduct and inclusivity. A code of conduct is not there to protect powerful people. It's not there to brow

This is basically how the internet works though, isn't it? Your network and my network have parties interested in each others data. If parts of your network are generating traffic that I don't think is reasonable then I can either

Did structural engineering for a bit before coming back to software. More or less right about hard rules. They're not truly hard, and it's different in different countries. Some countries have performance based rules, others hav
