You mention Japan, but even as a local I'm not sure which movement you're referring to regarding anti-beueaucratic populism. Perhaps, are you alluding to SEALDs and those against revising the constitution? If so, I don't thin

Looks neat. I tried to download from the MAS, but I use the incompatible 10.10, and I don't want to upgrade my OS. Is there a way to download it regardless?

Sounds like you're from Japan? FYI for readers here, Dwango has been leading efforts to revitalise Japanese Anime, including Anime Mahon-Ichi, a series of animated shorts produced with a creative focus in lieu of commercial viability.

I wonder what chemical reactions occur inside our brains and bodies when we "fall in love." Reminds me of Rick and Morty , which refers to love as purely a symptom of secreting oxytocin.

One of my favorite ways to collect news sources still is RSS, and now that Reader's gone, I've moved on to Feedly.

While as a Wagnerian I noticed this immediately, I feel the subject of this post was not exactly the scale to warrant an allusion to an epic[1] tetralogy. But then again, I could be being pedantic. [1] Frankly, no words would do justice to

The title could be misleading. It's light-emitting e-readers that affect sleep cycles, especially iPads which they used in the study. That means my sleep shouldn't be distracted significantly just because I read on my non-backli

On the other hand, I have never seen a HN link labelled in green. Is this a new feature? http://i.imgur.com/6gAgfsg.png

I find Evernote quite useful for specific domains, namely interviews. When preparing to give interviews, I gather all the info online using clipper. I can then categorise information based on the interviewee. After publishing interviews, I

I wonder where Hitler was inspired and adopted anti-Semitism. Some sources attribute to his years of homelessness in Vienna, a city known for its virulent anti-Semitism. Others blame it on composer Richard Wagner, of whom Hilter was an ard

I just came back from Berlin, and was able to book an AirBnb during the high season of August in just a few days in advance. The price seemed reasonable for around $40 per night. I’m wondering if booking is as difficult as the author descri

Neato! Given that Bemmu live in Japan, I think he intended using the Kanji characters as Japanese characters, although they were originally derived from traditional Chinese (still used in Taiwan).

Excuse me if this sounds irrelevant, but why name it after Nordic mythology?

I used to think so too. But then again, is it advisable to start a startup just for Y Combinator?

As fascinating as it sounds to listen to recordings by the composers themselves, I fear these “authoritative” renditions would deprive performers the room for interpretations.

Is anyone familiar with the classical music tune in the first 30 seconds of the video? I recall hearing it somewhere before, but am not certain with the name of the piece.

Reminds me of Firesheep. Simple side-jacking implemented as a Firefox extension with a real simple GUI. I recall that this prompted so many websites to migrate to HTTPS.

I was always haunted and fascinated by Giger's imagination. What first came into mind was the album cover for Emerson, Lake and Palmer's "Brain Salad Surgery". By synthesizing Thanatos and Eros, both primordial in human

For a second, I thought you were alluding to Mac Akasaka. Turns out this one's just as insane... I can only imagine this being a comedy sketch or something.

Being a Japanese citizen myself, I agree to your sentiments to some extent. Yes, he is very keen to satisfy media outlets and spread support for Abenomics. He has been jingoistic, using patriotic rhetoric to amass votes from nationalistic a

I've met Namba-san previously. She grew up in a rather traditional environment, attending an all-female college. What gave her the entrepreneurial ambitions was So-net's CEO suggesting her to get into business online, as the artic
