My thoughts with you wish you the best. Curious why you aren't already on a waiting list for a transplant?

Very well done. I hope this happens soon. I'm an engineer but not the software kind and I will look into this area more closely and try to support it. Thank you.

Was interested in this also but hardly any comments. Maybe we're the only paranoid ones? Aside, I hate oncoming Teslas at night, feels like high beams permanently on. Effect seems more with Tesla. Flashing high beams at them does no go

Unchecked capitalism may create a couple of wonder drugs costing millions, for a few people, and enrich the 0.1%. On the average it will kill more people, make more people bankrupt and kill the economy.

To the OP: this is extremely well written. It explains something crucially important in a very measured style. I saw your update .. please do not be disheartened about people picking nits. If you read comments to other popular posts, you&#x

This is about the only thing that works for me. "3. Break it into smaller chunks" Most of the rest seem like tricks to con myself, and I am really bad at that!

I went to NYC the other day. There was lots of diverse interesting stuff. Not full of people who looked just like me.

Exactly. If a shoplifter only paid a small percentage for stolen goods it would become a great career same as surveillance capitalism.

A ban would be a terrible idea. Some appropriate regulation and breaking up of monopolies might improve the situation. It's heartening to see the EU initiatives.

I LOVE IT! https://www.fuckupmysite.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.... PS: after posting the link I saw at least one other comment did this, so the feeling seems widespread.

Yes. I agree with the gist of it but, TLDR.

Want to thank the OP and commenters for this. I am not a hacker, and am hanging on to a Windows 10 and 7 (yes) laptop. I need to make some time and get one of the Linux systems. It would help a great deal if someone wrote or pointed to a bl

Doctorow's writings are good, and this book summary is excellent. One of his recommendations is unlikely to go far: tech worker unions. Most comments on HN underscore the extent to which techies have bought into capitalist propaganda,

Ouch that must hurt! I see this in plenty of comments on HN actually. People lose track of the topic at hand, and debate at length on a couple of words in another comment.

All the people saying "Government is inefficient". Come on, do you think the CEOs who only work for quarterly returns are going to provide great healthcare? No, they are going to use every opportunity and propaganda to keep rippin

Interesting analysis. 1. What about the annual peaks roughly 5 minutes. Seem to occur in winter? I would have thought summer delays are more, on the average? 2. Mentioning DEI at FAA without any substantial data tarnishes an otherwise inter

The referenced study is from the New England Journal of Medicine, which is pretty respectable, and is a large study. It says the wealthiest 25% of Americans have a worse mortality than the poorest 25% of Europeans. They have health insuranc

Non-hacker here. The title says "modern". I don't need modern, have a 10 year old phone, can I still get the occasional simple app from F-Droid? I upped my (small) monthly contribution. Hope more people contribute, and also w
