To make such a significant breakthrough like relativity theory it's not enough to see connections between seemingly unrelated things. You have to have a sufficiently open and free mind to be able to discard beliefs of generations of sc

In Firefox you can add tags to bookmarks and then search in bookmarks by typing '*' as the first symbol in the address bar. In this way I always can find anything I saw and tagged appropriately. Though now I'm switching to sa

Practicing self-restrictions is a good advice in general, but I wouldn't equate the addiction problem with dopamine levels. There is a meaning in everything you do, including your addictions. Sometimes this meaning is very deep. And yo

It's not just overwork, it's also about how society treats your lifework. The science is a collective effort of millions of people, of many generations. But here we have a situation where dickheads like Musk, who don't even h

Most people just follow the trend. But there are leaders that promote the worst in people. And they have a huge part of attention nowadays.

You could try NixOS if stability is that important. It requires time investment, but it saves time too.

The downvotes are showing that you're right. People have lost faith. Today people believe science. It explains that humans are born not because of love, but cells interaction when people have sex. Science explains way more things than

I found NixOS to be usable (though it has limits in comparison to other distributions), reliable and reproducible(!). You can add and remove packages without polluting the system. Potentially it can save you time in the future. Moving to an

Yes, terrorists can do exactly what they said to their victims, unless their demands are met. This doesn't make them "children persuaded to hurt themselves".

And Zuck wants to push it on the next level, where people would not be able to escape the virtual reality of ultimate depression. All this for money and power of "investors".

1. You publish two pairs (0, h(x0)), (1, h(x1)). It's your public key. 2. You publish h(x0) if you want to sign 0. 3. You publish x0 if you want to verify it. Your public key is unusable after that.

I've seen comments here on HN that some people committed suicide because of the losses. But media don't care. It's not unexpected, though. Hyper-capitalism and democracy are clearly incompatible. People already treat others a

It's frightening that people "at the top" write those things without even realizing how it sounds for ordinary people. I think this delusion is on par with Marie Antoinette and her "eat cakes if you don't have bread

It's a variant of the classical story https://www.smbc-comics.com/?db=comics&id=1623 Though, it seems in this case some scientists who pushed the narrative were dishonest too.

Funny thing. I've upvoted two comments in a row (and it was visible in UI), but found out later that the second vote didn't pass. For a moment I thought HN is gaslighting me - it's a vivid example of it. Apparently, there is

The article should better explain what gaslighting is not. It's misleading to use the word "gaslighting" as a synonym to "lie", "deceit" or "fraud". Lies in general are used to gain unfair advant
