I don’t understand why people act like checking bags is a huge time sink. It’s maybe fifteen minutes at most on a bad day for the bag drop, and I can’t remember the last time I had to wait more than 20 minutes for them to show up on the car

Not criticizing you but it will never not be funny to me that crazy people have tried to legitimize seeing alien spaceships by renaming them from UFOs to UAPs. It’s like the conspiracy theorist version of unhoused.

Claiming that “mass data collection” by our own government is inherently a natural security risk is not an assertion based on rational evidence.

Like you can just go read the opinion. It goes into detail on exactly this question and is easy to understand.

It is endlessly fascinating to me that people ascribe emotions that individuals experience to organizations, companies, nation-states, etc. As the article says ByteDance is a massive company with thousands of employees in the US alone. It’s

I was more struck by the fact that the author thinks anyone would or should care what some random tech journalist thinks about something. Person has opinions, news at eleven.

Since train fans always like to point this out when it comes to flying: this is how far you can get in 8 hours on the train . It doesn’t include the time to get to the station, the buffer time you need (if your train leaves at 0700 you can

“Chances are” is not science, it’s just obsessing over the current Scary Thing. You’re just making things up.

What is the relevance of your anecdote? I’m genuinely confused.

The CA DMV test is 20 minutes. Whatever it was in 2008 I sincerely doubt it was five minutes.

Years ago I was hired to do IT for a company that had just massacred like half its workforce. And when I say “just” I mean most of the people I interviewed with were gone when I got there - it happened just a few weeks after I interviewed.

You don’t think it’s reasonable to tell your employees that as a condition of employment they have to be at a specific location at specific times?

I’m sorry but all I can think of reading your comment is “but why male models?”.

This article is mostly lifted from a linked articles and is a dupe of yet another article and somehow none of the three saw fit to link to the ruling. Mostly all three are caterwauling about impact without addressing the ruling on its merit

They’re claiming…… tourism is the reason for increased demand? Seriously?

This is by no means true across the country but I’m sure it plays well to the “American public transport sucks” sentiment some folks like to cling to.

Slightly off topic but that site is everything that is wrong with mobile websites. Incredibly short snippets of text intercut with ad after ad, the ads pop in late making the text jump around, a pop up asking me to sign up for some stupid t

They didn’t have to “gender” it, it’s the Guardian. They don’t write uplifting feel good stories about straight white men.

It’s just a fact that in the US that any item over a particular cost is not a fixed cost item. There’s always room for negotiation. It’s not awesome for those bad at haggling but it is what it is and it’s not limited to cars.

I use Designer almost daily and I’m stunned by how good it is. I have zero interest in ever going back to Illustrator. I’m sure there’s pro requirements that only Illustrator has but I’ve not encountered them. For the price it’s simply amaz

This was absolutely not feasible at the time IP was being developed. There simply wasn’t enough computational power available or good encryption algorithms invented yet. And you can make a reasonable argument that that’s not the responsibil

Sundays on HN are a weird thing. It’s the only day of the week when I see the nutty anti-car takes, de-growth takes, climate doomerism, etc. Monday through Saturday, tech news (mostly). Sunday, unhinged nutballism.
