Odd, I see his comment and I'm playing HN with undeads off ("showdead" is "no").

This is great, and I can't wait for it to commoditized, but I bet I'm way priced out. In general, I find e-ink displays relatively expensive for modestly sized ones (say 6 inch +). What's some of the best deals/value for

Thanks for the reply! And the generator option, tho I keep getting timed out of the code, the descriptions sound promisingly good at times. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply these were not produced as described, I was just curious. Tho thi

Ohh thanks, I had not noticed that. This makes the site fairly more interesting.

The sources here on the topic of web design for UX sent me in a rabbit hole I doubt I'll get to leave today. So much great info. Thanks for the share.

Thinking what would Buffett do in this situation is relevant misunderstands (tho perhaps just tongue-in-cheek) both Buffett's managerial and investing approach as well as Musk's.

While I don't condemn such snitching, I'm not sure how the responsibility doesn't fall on the social media user for publicly advertising their search or "professionally friending" prospective employers. Neither acti

You don't pay for Twitter's infrastructure, you pay for it's >210M daily active users. What it cost, in dollars and years, to replicate that ? Some $200 per Twitter DAU is not extravagant, 13 years of current average rev

Civil unrest is more what I meant, with those people much in mind, felt like a better term than coup. But I don't think "protest" is necessarily wrong, it doesn't count out violent ones AFAIK (lethally repressed, riots,

They got invaded the day after a president that turned the country away from the EU to Russia was ousted, not NATO to CSTO. They're getting shelled for exercising economic sovereignty, not military ones. If Canada was to get wrecked fo

What kind of mental gymnastics are you jumping thru to think a full-scale foreign invasion is acceptable because a president that's suites your political wills gets ousted thru civil protests? In a parallel universe where Trudeau promi

We can drop the "nearly". Yanukovych left Kyiv on Feb 21nd 2014, was ousted as president by the 22d and fled to Russia by the 26th. [0, 1] Russia invaded Crimea with boots on the ground by Feb 22-23d. [2] I wager people who still

Scientists can hypothesize, they can speculate, they can opine; they can say a lot more things than claims. But if you've read the article, it's apparent why, in this instance, these paleontologists would be claiming that these sp

The appeal, as I understand it (and I'm 100% an out-of-his-field armchair analyst here), is that this is loan sharking with extra steps ("late fees") for those of us with the worse credit scores that can't get better opt

Fair point, it is indeed over two decades old if you start from bit gold (and hard for me to argue against with a straight face after using DARPANET as an inception point for the Internet, even if bit gold was only theorised).

Two decades? You quasi-doubled the age of cryptocurrency, it's been 13 years since Bitcoin's chain started and (apparently [0]) 11 since the first alt-coin. I don't hold any crypto and am ambivalent about it (seems to have th

They ban like 1.7B account per quarter ignoring those blocked at registration. Isn't that focus? Subjectively too I also see so much less bot activity on Facebook than I do on any other social media.

Unlisted YouTube video or Patreon's native video sharing both sound more appealing than some direct download.

It's rather a repeat of Dalio's idea with regards to the cycle of empires or "world orders", but feel free to read into it what you want, NATO or otherwise. I just meant that I don't see how some form of implicit te

You're missing my point entirely and making some weird, unrelated argument. I'm no military mind but indeed, they wouldn't have been quite as effective in shelling the country if they only had access to the sea rather than sh

They partook in an invasion with it maybe? Do you think Ukrainians scuttled their own ships for fun or because they wanted to slow down whatever role Russia's navy can have with access to ports? "You couldn't hide all the shi
