The most useful link on HN of the year has already been posted. Those labels are baffling.

No you're simply wrong. Plenty of smart people have a sense of loyalty and want to do what's best for the company and their colleagues, not just what's expedient for themselves.

People keep repeating this but it's really pretty silly. When people say they work 8 hours they don't mean they are 100% focused on doing revolutionary innovative work for 8 hours. Not all work is like factory work where you can d

The accent is on the initial o, why would you stress the second syllable? (1) And why would Greek MI be pronounced MY? That’s a very English specific pronunciation of I. It definitely wasn’t a diphthong in Greek. What is even your point? No

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that Neil Young removed his music from Spotify? After failing to blackmail them, sure, but he did the removing himself. I love his music and never listened to Rogan, but this just seems like an attem

But aren't we talking about single family houses here, with a garden? If you have room for a garage in your garden, surely you have room for a car without a garage?

> Even worse, most houses (unless they are luxury houses >$500,000 built in the last 5ish years) aren't built with a garage for a car, so you're looking at buying land, smashing down the existing structure, and then rebuildi

Yes, I've also always felt there must be ways to extract more data from a moving clip, precisely because of the effect he explains, but then it seems that just superimposing the images doesn't actually extract that information, at

Why? I mean most pre-schoolers probably play with rebuses, simple crosswords etc. It's just a common concept in the world that most people have come across. Unlike say an obscure linguistic term like nisba.

It was just a random google result, but we definitely did rebuses in pre-school at least. The rebus concept is actually a precursor to actual writing, historically speaking. Both in Mesopotamia/Egypt and in the Chinese civilisation, wr

That is not an uncommon word though, I'd venture most school children know it. You probably read rebuses in school but just forgot about it!

As many have mentioned, it seems much more efficient to focus on eliminating letters, which means that the second word should not be very green at all. Also, since there's only one word a day, I think we can assume that it's chose

Most of the contents is mediocre at best, but I feel that it's absurdly cheap. Every once in a while there's a quality show or old film there. If you watch 10 hours a month it's a bargain, and I'm guessing a lot of peopl

I think they probably do. But the worst part about success stories is all the LinkedIn cringe, inspirational quotes, smug advice and airport business books they generate.

People ask the same questions about any new technology, and most of the time they are right, it's not going to revolutionise the world.

Unless the insurance policy is somehow decentralised, it doesn't serve any purpose to decentralise the knowledge that you are insured.

NowLight also relies on pulling though. The difference is just that you pull for a few minutes, instead of lifting something heavier for a few seconds, and then let _that_ pull for two hours.

I haven't done a statistical analysis, but looking at my way to work now it's more than half of it that's painted bike lanes. That from Østerport to the Parliament, meaning the outskirts of the center to downtown.

That philosophy might make sense on enthusiast Linux distros, but not on macOS, or some pragmatic Linux flavour.

You’re definitely not allowed to drive or park in a bike lane, nobody would do that. On some on way side streets they have this weird system where the bike lane and takes up half the road and shares it with parked cars

I wouldn't call 400-500k a significant runway, but it should have some effect, since you can put of fund raising for at least a few months, maybe even 2 years if you're frugal. At that time you are hopefully further along.
