It would be surprising if the artists made close to 25% after all the record company execs and middle-men have taken their cut. Speaking of bog easy

This is so much better. I'd remove even more and forget about descending. You have a perfect paper airplane. It flies in a straight line regardless of wind and never descends, staying a constant height from the ground as it flies. You

They changed the title after all the complaints. Also the HN title hasn't been updated yet. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40567623

Really? The title of the puzzle isn't part of the puzzle? Then the first line of the puzzle should be "completely ignore the title of this puzzle because it's somehow not part of the puzzle. It's unrelated. It will compl

The issue people have is with "straight". It's ambiguous. And the simplest, most intuitive interpretation of "straight" in the context of someone directing you to travel East, is to continue travelling East. It&#x27

Travel exactly due East. Now, ignore what East means. Then, ignore the giant white arrow pointing East into Montana in the image we've created to illustrate this question. Also, don't worry about anything called a Great Circle, it

Similar to the small web, I equally love the silly web. Good job!

Yeah I get it, just disagree that it circumvents anything. If emails actually worked this way then leaking the domain would be effectively the same as leaking an email is today. The + scheme doesn’t work because of the aforementioned normal

I’m not sure that idea was thought through. An infinite number of addresses that all point to the same inbox is effectively the same as having one address

I might have goofed the analogy. I was trying to illustrate that mature regulations and true liability mean that even McDonalds’ lowest level employees require standardized training. They know that a fridge must be ~40F. But the kid isn’t l

How else would it work? It’s incredibly convenient. The option to create a new email is presented on signup forms, or you can open Hide My Email settings and generate one. I have hundreds of emails this way

Based on my experience, this feature might as well not exist.

I continuously wonder how we keep building multi-billion dollar applications where both basic consumer protections aren’t in place and there’s almost no liability for the companies running them. A kid working at McDonalds requires a safe fo

The feeling we have about changing food prices comes from price sensitivity, not some kind of food cartel secretly jacking up the price of grapes. You can choose to get the cheap grapes or buy bananas instead. There’s no menu to pick the ch

I don’t think they’re claiming that people don’t need to eat. People have the choice between many grocery stores, farmers markets, butchers, restaurants, etc. There’s more places to get food than anything else.

And unskippable ads after every third image. Then the moment you get to the final image there’s an email registration wall. It has a little X button that doesn’t work on iOS.

We all want more housing but zoning laws and NIMBYs prevent us from building proper urban housing. Yet there’s nothing stopping someone from building a 6bd/4ba house in my neighborhood and renting the whole thing out for $1600/rm.

Unfortunately, similar to the housing crisis , there’s a retirement home crisis and many people can’t afford long term care without selling the home they wanted to leave to their children.

Row houses and flats are better. Zoning laws prohibit them in most neighborhoods though.
