A shared iMessage note is the scariest thing ever. I’ll tap on it and it will only open like 50% of the time.

A service economy with proper living wages is absolutely possible. I’m not a fan of such an economy because any country, especially one as large as the U.S., has no reason to be a single sector economy and plus as we saw during the pandemic

The CHIPS act isn’t an attack on anybody. It’s a recognition that it’s ridiculous for the. US to depend on a foreign country for a fundamental product on which every individual, every household, every business, every government and the enti

What you’re suggesting is a non democratic dystopic nightmare. For example, in your world, as long as enough people agree with me, I can decide that the couch in your living room should actually be in the kitchen. After all, one of the most

You are incorrect. Picketing, which is what unions do, is preventing people from entering the workplace. You can’t really picket in the workplace. But even assuming that is correct, unions wouldn’t support this because it doesn’t fall under

I’ve no real comment on the seed oils, etc. but I don’t understand how someone can look at the “Animals vs plant based added fats and oils per capita” chart and conclude first that seed oils have increased in our diet relative to animal fat

This is kind of true about all of Tech. Much of the crowd here isn’t very smart. They simply happened to be at the right place at the right time, ie a time where “software was eating the world” and also the iPhone/Android took over. Fi

You could. You’d just be wrong. Because the title isn’t clickbait at all. It’s accurate. If anything, most other media writers have correctly been even more harsh on it. If you wanted to give Humane a ridiculous amount of leeway you could a

The title is almost certainly literally accurate. Of the products he’s reviewed (it’s the worst product he reviewed he said), how many others are even half as expensive as the Pin? And what percentage of them almost completely fail to achie

My favorite part of the Model 3 is the suspension. I don’t think I’ve ever had a worse trip in the back seat of a car.

You seem to believe that one can only rigidly do “science” or “religion”. Much of what people are suggesting in these comments are not just “personal anecdotes”. They’ve proven to be wrong for most people. They’re outright dangerous. For e

You do know that’s just to throw humans off their scent right? Everyone believes they have bad grammar so when they launch the really serious attacks we all think it was a state agency rather than the cats.

The article is right. .NET is way ahead of anything in the front end world. But that’s because the front end world is crap. React Server Components, the new great idea on the primary front end framework is recreating ASP.Net Web Forms. Badl

There’s having syntactic sugar and there’s whatever the F C# is trying to do. There is so much different syntactic sugar to do the same thing that it’s becoming very difficult to onboard new devs to any slightly complex application worked o

This is not even close to reality. The reality is that the cap was set in the early 90s at a time where it far exceeded the need and hasn’t been touched since then. And domestic needs have increased while Congress refuses to pass any reform

This is not true. If you commit fraud you will be punished. The problem however is that Congress refuses to fund USCIS. For example, until a few years ago, USCIS was incapable of taking digital payments because Congress refused to fund any

In other words a completely unique traffic management solution is hard for people who have never encountered it before. Sounds like the real problem is a lack of familiarity than anything inherent to the design.

Such a disappointing but typical HN comment. The changes described in the OP are unequivocally good. But the most promoted comment is obviously something snarky complaining about a tangential issue and not the actual thing the article’s abo

It’s not even obvious today. The strongest argument the creationists use when trying to push back against evolution, which actually works, is basically “do you really think your great grandfather was a monkey?”. It takes incredible leaps of

This is a pretty popular hypothesis. In fact, the Oscar nominated movie Arrival is based entirely on this idea.

This isn’t even true of American free speech. Defamation laws do exist. And you cannot knowingly lie under many circumstances (for example, executives at companies, advertisements, making medical claims, etc).

A record label is probably much more of a VC than it is an employer. The business has changed since streaming and self publishing but the labels took bets on artists and gave them expensive recording studios and marketing dollars, gave them

Whether we can or cannot do something about is a wholly different question from whether it’s an issue at all. I see so many people basically say “there’s nothing we can do about it therefore there’s no problem at all”. I don’t think this is

What’s the alternative to plastic straws? There was a push in many US cities to get rid of them but they switched to paper straws where the vast majority of them were possibly worse for the environment, and even if not, the benefits were no
