Over the years I've heard whispers of similar stories about Schmidt online, but they always seemed to disappear really fast, like they slip right down the memory hole. It will be interesting to see if this one sticks or not.

This is really neat. I've been toying with the idea of building something similiar but with a bunch of different space stuff, like a calculator for different rotating space station geometries, mars/lunar cycler orbits, or solar sh

Why does that one particular facet matter the most? As I understand it diets with modest amounts of animal protein are cheaper, healthier, and ultimately more sustainable for the ecosphere.

An adjacent problem is when enthusiasts in hobby subreddits become a bit too enthusiastic about the hobby which sometimes develops into an unhealthy obsession that the community (un)wittingly becomes a part of. I recently bought a pair of b

I’ve felt the same way with social media in general. It’s about managing your resources. In this case it’s your time. Something I’ve been experimenting with here is writing smaller comments that serve as an invitation for someone to write

How much is that due to genuine innovation in manufacturing and automation vs cheaper labour and a lack of environmental and human rights regulations?

I’m shocked when I come across people who think that sockpuppeting doesn’t happen on social media including HN. I wish there were laws that required large social media sites to publish data to their end users that indicate the severity of t

It isn't necessarily just a non-interventionist stance. Someone could be taking this position in this situation because they're highly skeptical that the Americans involved in this have the ability or desire to proceed in a way t

That's absolutely right. Authoritarians abhore freedom and consider every instance of it to be a threat to their continued existence and control. The implication of this is that once they're done with Taiwan they'll come for

Absolutely. People seem to think that we just need to recycle more, seal some cracks in the house with foam, install some solar panels, and buy an electric car. They underestimate the scale of the intervention that will be required to sta

They don’t have to go to war. The ICC can just try these people in absentia and then once they’re found guilty put bounties out on them like Osama Bin Laden.

Let's say I'm mildly convinced by your argument. I've read your blog post that was popular on HN a week or so ago and I've made similar little toy programs with AI that scratch a particular niche. Do you care to make an

Not at all. I enjoy the subject of conspiracies and hoaxes without holding a strong personal affinity towards any particular one.
