If the GP poster had said that that Apple had previously solved the "external hires treated better than internal candidates" it would be perhaps the most impressive thing I'd ever heard about Apple culture.

Not stuck in my head the same as a song, but after a day birding I'll have things like Pacific-Slope Flycatcher or Red Crossbill calls stuck in my head.

That was the way normal bans worked. Pay :tenbux: and get your account reactivated. Permabans, which generally required really toxic* behavior were "we never want to see you on this site again." and you weren't supposed to re

Indeed, this is a ridiculous statement. The iTunes store didn't even launch until 2003, and I don't recall it actually competing with CD sales until several years after that. I suspect you'd find very few record label folks f

I am generally emotionally unaffected by celebrity deaths, but this one really shocked me a few minutes ago when I saw the headline. I was frantically searching for something piece of info to indicate it was fake, or a parody. Michael K. Wi

As someone who pays a decent amount of attention of wildlife photography, and this contest, amazingly detailed photos of birds end up being a dime a dozen in contests like these. What really gets you noticed is something that tells a story

I think it's safe to say that Delta has made kids (especially pre-pubescent kids) more contagious than earlier strains, but they still seem to be an undersized proportion of cases currently being reported. Even in states with spiking c

Somewhat incredibly, Ida killed far more people as a weakened tropical storm in the northeast after crossing the entire US than it did as a Cat4/5 hurricane on the gulf coast. From Wikipedia: > As of September 4, a total of 70 dea

My understanding is that Delta variant is much more infectious, but doesn't differ very much in ways that would make it less recognizable to your immune system. So your body doesn't have any issue knowing there's a problem it

My wife and kids were on this flight and I had the surreal experience of watching the evacuation from the side of the freeway as I waited for the text to come pick them up at baggage claim.

Keep in mind, every single cold and flu you've ever had has used the same mRNA pathway to duplicate itself. Anyone reading this has had this happen in their body literally billions of times and will have it happen billions more. Is it

Seems like HN policy is that all death announcements get the "John Doe Has Died" title. Probably makes it easier to avoid weird comment threads proclaiming that "John Doe didn't really invent the robotic sex doll!"

Based on what we know about the demographics of those actively choosing to avoid COVID vaccination make me think that they would differ pretty significantly from those who would volunteer to participate in a phase 3 trial.

It's one of those ideas that sounds really good, but winds up being a bit of a nightmare. Just looking at what we currently have with USB-C things get very complicated. A USB-C port can support one of several different speeds of USB

Merlin also recently added sound ID for North America. I would assume they're working on other regions as well based on their previous track record.
