   Do you live in the wealthiest city in America? I've been to 11 libraries and absolutely none of them have anything on that list.

   Buddy Levy's book on the Aztecs and Cortez is one of my favorites of all time. https://www.amazon.com/Conquistador-Hernan-Cortes-Montezuma-... It would be amazing if you created an interactive history experience based

   In 2007 I had posted something on a message board that personally identified me. I had the post removed from the forum but it was captured on Google's result summary. I literally emailed Google asking if they could remove it and they n

   Maybe in terms of generic vectors. Neither of those are even remotely comparable to Figma's full feature set.

   "Housing" might be a "solved issue" in "Asia" but that's absurdly reductionist. Quality of life is not solved. Breathing your neighbors vape and cigarette smoke is not solved. Hearing pounding bass through

   I always hear this stock buybacks thing, it's become almost memefied. Is this really the culprit here because it sounds so reductionist.

   Maybe, but not yet. I finally ditched my cable bundle (internet, TV, voice which I never used) from Spectrum to just internet. Bill went from $300 to $100. This was while always having Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Max, and Apple+. Slashing

   I mean is it cool, or incredibly depressing, because the world will march on with its chainsaws obliterating ancient forests in the pursuit of profits?

   So why didn't you just say you didn't have insurance.

    Honestly if using AI to summarize this hour+ video means being able to efficiently grok the content without suffering through dozens of mindnumbing YT ads, then it's not really that rotten.

    Which baffles me. Because these invasive species literally got here by stowing away in containers on ships. In the least hospitable transportation. And we can't do it even with dedicated design controls and science?

    Ok, so why isn't this ACTUALLY being done? California is being absolutely inundated by invasive mosquitos from China. They're a proper scourge. Absolutely awful, and they're everywhere in huge numbers. Some company recently w

    I often chuckle that same people who vehemently defend vaccine safety studies also decry studies that show processed seed oils, glyphosate, aspartame, and hundreds of other molecules or compounds are unsafe over time. That's the beauty

    Unfortunately if you had searched Stripe on HN to see a long, detailed history of them ruining businesses like this.

    "America isn’t good at teaching anything that requires intensive practice and repetition." I thought the number one criticism of American teaching is rote memorization and rote repetition and so kids leave with zero deep understan

    Am I alone in not understanding this black hole one... it's a sequence of three obviously distinct still images in which the black center is larger than the previous image. Meanwhile, each image on its own is offering no kind of percep

    See their friends updates instantly? Is this a joke? You do realize real-time reverse chronological feeds are long dead right? meta optimizes for the "algo", which is to shove ads and influencers and trending nonsense in front of

    Sure, why not? It's just a fancy point cloud. I can easily imagine an open world Minecraft-esque game that uses this for its base engine instead of voxels.

    Why are we only able to theorize about these things? Why can't we get know and why these things work?

    I'd love to, but 98% of this video is a close-up shot of a woman talking for 13 minutes and maybe 5 seconds showing a mostly blue drawing.

    What about Magic The Gathering cards? I started playing during Weatherlight as a kid and the smell of those cards was like crack for some reason. I'm sure it was just some carcinogenic chemicals though.

    I remember exactly the same thing as a kid in certain books. I acutely remember the feel/texture of the paper of those vomit smell books too. So funny.
