You are able to be anonymous on HN by creating a new account which is not tied to your regular account history. If you had millions of dollars in crypto you would too. It's not nearly the same as having it in a bank or mutual funds wh

Which search engine do you use? I don't think it's possible to search for "Cudalasa" and not immediately be corrected to "Culadasa", seamlessly and with zero ambiguity. In which case, why are you even pointing

Article says: ..that price would include everything from airfare to the organization's only facility.. Their own pricing disclaimer says otherwise: Lodging and travel expenses are not included in the price of the procedures.

I think there is certainly a massive amount of uneducated speculation going on in the crypto currency world, but saying things like "no one cares about decentralization" shows a foolish lack of knowledge about the whole space. A l

Symmetry is explicitly mentioned in the original article and the study you're commenting on.

I guess I've just never considered a college degree a prerequisite for professional respect. Even if you do think that way, and you consider her as completely an entertainer with robotics as her medium, is she a robotics hobbyist? Are

"nerd dream-girl" whatever you mean by that has little to do with it. She's a woman on the Internet so she is sexually harassed. She's a woman in the world so she is sexually harassed on the street. And even though the p

There is no mention of how the suicide rate of doctors compares to the general population. Also, bullet points like "Family members of doctors who have killed themselves are also at high risk of suicide" , "Suicidal doctors

She studied engineering, programming, and robotics, she makes a living making robots full time, and yet the article title calls her a "robotics hobbyist" and the article says she's a "robot enthusiast".

Yeah I think it's one of the worst reactions you could have. Without any indication of how bad the attack actually is, you should really assume the best and set yourself up to be able to survive. What if it's a conventional bombin

Nearly all governments fund art currently and in the past and scarcity has never been a defining attribute of art. Also, not all artists in ancient Egypt were sponsored and not all art was for everyone, e.g. slaves.

Never did I say I'd be making $300k per year. $100k a year to do three 5 hour interviews a week for $300k jobs? I would do that in a heartbeat.

The interview process would certainly change as a result, so who knows if one could interview full time sustainably. But I don't think it's a special case. Good software developers are by nature great at hacking systems and plent

Thank you for the vote of confidence, but I'm a decent developer, not a $300k salary developer.

> Personally, I'm concerned Your "personal" concern is an extremely common opinion in a major debate that has been going on for years. There is even a documentary to support it.

Well then I would be a professional job candidate. I could easily fill my time with $300k+ job interviews that I can pass a phone screen for but am not fully qualified for.

These all seem like highly subjective criteria, which is the whole problem with the way hiring works in first place.

How exactly does that work? To me, the statement says essentially "you can trust us more than Ripple" with no explanation as to why.

I think you could use this quote to justify both sides of the debate. Unlike Google, which generates money from ads, Apple is a hardware company, so data security is both economically viable and integral to their brand.

I own some amount of Siacoin, but what I don't fully understand is how the value of Sia is supposed to work with the platform itself. As the value of the currency increases, doesn't that make actually using the service prohibitive

What part of this is interesting to you? This paragraph does not explain how they are different from Ripple's approach only that they are in fact different.

It doesn't seem to me at all like we're only looking for signs of intelligence in apes. We're looking for it in everything. The article even references advocates for the legal personhood of great apes, dolphins, elephants,

The title is intentionally misleading. Alfred Anaya was a willingly complicit part of a drug trafficking operation in return for large financial gain, so he was put in prison. This is also from 2013.

I don't follow this at all, what are you saying? First off, there are two pictures in the article, so the idea that "looks matter" as pertains to selfishness, whatever that means, is in question. Secondly, the idea that &quot
