I already don't like how you constantly push your product on HN, but now you're acting like an entitled asshole to boot. Maybe chill out and don't attack possible users?

Yes, until the government passes new laws which reduce those protections and allow the use of this data for other things. It's really great you built in decent protections, but that doesn't mean they'll always be in place. Us

I wonder if you could position posts or boxes (some physical object) with "weird" shapes that could be used as fixed, recognizable points for this sort of thing? So when your sensor picks it up, it's easy to immediately know

I would like to see some sources like this that are language agnostic that give you the tools needed to implement your own popular tool. For example, where could I look to find a written description of the way git works from the ground up?

You are saying an 80-85% loss isn't brutal? Man, bitcoin people are way tougher than I am, because losing that much value in my investments would make me want to die. I only lost like 15-20% during the 2008 crash and recovered that and

Yea, and capex is the hardest nut to crack since it requires investors that want to make a profit sooner rather than later. I love nuclear, but it's not a realistic resource at this time. All the downvotes in the world won't make

What would be the usage in a driver of mapping arbitrary pages of memory to RW mode?

It depends on the cost, honestly. If the cost is too high, no utility will continue to run those plants. I agree with you, but the reality is that finance runs everything these days.

>I doubt we will see any reasonable economics for nuclear as long coal, oil and gas is allowed to be burned. True, and that's why the carbon tax would have to be super-high as to make oil and gas financially un-viable. Banning burni

I would seriously like to hear from you folks why you disagree with my statement above, please comment. I have a feeling it's either rabid pro-nuke folks (I was a nuclear technician in the Navy, so I am also pro-nuke) or the pro-oil fo

Nuclear isn't built because it isn't financially viable. I'd love to see more nuclear, but it just isn't going to happen anytime soon. Maybe if we added a carbon tax that was reasonable considering the climate emergency

Good point, but my point was the message wasn't clear, it just seemed like cruelty from the cops.

I am not a game developer, but couldn't you make a multiplayer game more fair in this situation by adding artificial lag into everyone's controls to match the highest lag person? Just limit it to a certain amount, like no more tha

I used Tildes during the first round of public closed alpha and it's pretty nice, everyone was polite, and they didn't put up with rude folks or bullshit trolls. I ended up quitting because there wasn't enough content at the

Maybe the high-growth companies should try not to abandon their employees rather than putting the onus on employees to not be abandoned. This could be done with some careful planning as they grow, but most of the high-growth companies I&#x2

I'm starting to think something like flatpak or snap is necessary, but in a more sandboxed way, to enforce on the user level that certain apps won't have access to certain files. I would like to see options to fully sandbox an app

Probably more like "better tolerances" or something like that. The labor/time put into a cable is the most pricey part, raw materials are probably only a few cents, even if you double the copper into it.

Your entire post here was blaming the drivers going the speed limit by using anecdotal evidence and claiming that speeders are not the dangerous ones. In other words: complete bullshit.

The only reason to go fast is for thrills. Going fast is dangerous to other people, hence: fuck you, go slower. I don't care what situation you pull from your ass to give a counterexample, 99.99% of people driving over the speed limit

In Hawaii, where housing is physically limited and prices are insane (maybe not like SF but still), a lot of families live with 2 or 3 generations in the same house. It's perfectly normal there, for example, for kids to live with their
