In my experiences, both as a meat-eater for most of my life and about a year of not eating meat, most of the reason you (or I, previously) couldn't stomach that kind of vector is because (at least in my case) it's the difference b

Would you mind sharing some of your experience (to whatever level you're comfortable with)? I actually have spanish citizenship as well as my US one, and have considered moving there (temporarily or permanently) to be closer to family

Looking at his comment, he said 'Terrible illness' which implies something more severe than just the flu.

I always read about how Electron is very resource-intensive, but I'm curious as to how the performance improves as time goes on? Does the Electron team have a focus on improving performance? Or is the issue with the developers using el

A vegan diet is easy if you're coming from an already health-conscious diet, meat or no meat. Before going vegetarian/vegan, I was already paying attention to what I ate, cooking at home for almost all of my meals, and generally e

I'd love to have one notebook-type app that works between all my devices, or some combination that lets me have the same or similar content. I loved OneNote back in Uni, though I reached a point where I stopped taking notes (through th

Here is a (somewhat related) instance of what you are talking about: A New Mexico Resident drove for 11 hours to break into the home of Gavin Free and Meg Turney, with intentions to kill Free [0]. It seems he became obsessed with Turney and

Also, you don't have to be miserable. There are tons of foods that a lot of people find delicious that aren't meat. You can use substitutes (tvp or lentil/walnuts for tacos, tofu in a stir fry, etc).

I see, thanks! I've opted out of everything you can already, and don't use Cortana, so all I'm sending is some basic telemetry data it seems.

Fair point. While I disagree with the article, I enjoyed reading the discussion around it, so I'm not quite sure whether I'm happy or sad it hit front page? Mixed feelings, I suppose.

I personally like having spots of news that aren't strictly technical mixed in, but I understand that some people prefer to see that elsewhere. For me, I like seeing what I consider one of the better communities I frequent on the inter

For the record, veganism also excludes dairy products, and we still have a pretty significant impact from things like dairy producing cows (not to mention they are treated just as poorly in factory conditions). And especially in restaurants

This article reads more like an ad for their farm, which granted as far as farms that produce meat from livestock goes, seems really nice. But their approach is not gonna work at scale, because you cannot have enough farms that operate this

I tried looking up stuff about windows spying on users, and most of what I'm seeing is useless (debunked articles, generally clickbait stuff). Is there anywhere I could look to read more about this if true?

A solid approach :P I've found that being deliberate about any of the aspects tends to lead to an improvement, and oftentimes you're deliberate about all/a lot of it. A huge shift in both health & wealth comes from switch

I definitely think that the major changes come from a switch to an "unregulated" food consumption habit, to any sort of deliberate (and often better-quality) diet. I gained some weight in late high school, and a lot of weight in e

From what I understand, a big proponent in the revival (which was centered around the birth of the NES) was that Game Consoles were marketed more as toys than computers, right? So instead of finding the NES next to your other PCs at the tim

None of the ways in which women were discussed was respectful. That's the difference. You're talking about hypothetical respectful objectification, which just isn't a thing.

Sidenote: I've never been more grateful for how HackerNews handles downvotes and the like. Seeing the comment in gray helps me steel myself for what I'm about to read.
