This reminds me of Blame! where humans are living light rats in the belly of the machine. Lol, also reminds me of the geocities days where we created 50 accounts to upload dragon ball z videos.

Why does no one listen to the person who rejects the false/artificial dichotomy?

Yeah and the people who seem to have a smaller gap seem to die young. Farley and John Candy were said to be very nice to the "little people".

So to combat falling into parasocial not-really-relationships, we should see their content as not really them, not really indicative of who they are, anything we have to tell ourselves to not feel as if we're connected when we're

People who belong trading in the market are the people who can figure out how to make money in any condition. The rest of the people, the long hodlers, will probably be fine. If you hold bitcoin for 2 years, you basically have not lost mo

For real, most VC's could take 100 different shots on solo devs who just need their living expenses paid... like me.

With so many large "crime waves", these small ripples which seem like crimes... Are they? Is MZ(read: Mark Zuckerberg) next to AC(read: Al Capone)? Does he still, in his heart of hearts, refer to his users as "stupid *f&#x2

I've heard a voice say "You can't let this guy get lucky" in the back of my head, when doing a particularly dumb gamble, so there is some sense of fragility in the degenerate gamblers, intending to break to get that swee

For me, minimal setup means installing on a fresh machine. At this point, my vimrc automatically installs plugins if they're not installed.. otherwise it's one command. So it's just copy/paste and maybe one run command,

Coriolis will actually effect a long range projectile, but not by much.. (basically the earth spinning under a bullet with a sufficiently high arc).

Right, but if they empowered to move, they have only a limited list of countries to select from. Those countries could be puppet states, corrupted, etc.... So what if one of those countries were to be formed on decentralized, open source p

Moreover, what is the fundamental difference between a government and a religion? Should governments be compatible with religions, and should religions be compatible with governments?

by danschumann 5y ago
What is a religion, if not an extension of citizenship overlayed onto existing governments? It's basically additional rules you follow, with some benefits of membership.

Is it possible to have a decentralized country? Take the united states... people are basically free to sneak in, without becoming residents, without "downloading the American OS into their brains" aka citizenship. Now, what if all

What drove us away from making fun shit? Was it our inferior need to make money? I used to think I was the greatest computer guy around until a guy in his dorm room, one year older than me, suddenly became a millionaire and then a billion

I find for me, looking at feelings wheel, "valued" is the emotion I feel regarding addiction. If an activity makes me feel valued, I come back and back and back. This is true also if the activity makes me feel inferior sometimes

Not to be reductive of a complex issue, but when I first discovered feelings wheel,I kept the tab open, and at various points in the day, I would attempt to pinpoint my exact emotional state and sort it into a category. If you don't h

The highness is indeed based on where you live, which is your choice. As Dave Ramsey says, "you don't get a pass on the math because you live in California". You people are nutbags. It also affeCts what people will put up

Schools should teach ratios about housing expenses vs income. Somehow we should make kids practice budgeting, controlling spending, etc, not just teaching, but practicing for years, because when you get out of school, there are are a few s

I discovered this form of theft in 2003 ... In high school, I realized I could fill my cart, commit no crime until I was near the exit of the store, then transfer the items from cart to a shopping bag, and walk out without paying, running h

Species like the elusive computer programmer, often avoiding sunlight at all costs, are one of the many species included, lol. I know HN hates satire but I can't stop humor.

Sounds good. I'm still dialing in the categories. The goal is to have a complete list of all the distinct emotions a person can have, with simple definitions and (for lack of a better word) distinctions. Every event in a life should

Most of the time people say they're curious on the internet, they're actually feeling dismissive, but just need more ammo to be able to dismiss the person. Which makes it skepticism, not curiosity.

Feelings wheel, my friend. Jealous and Furious are similar, jealous is when you want someone else to not have something, and furious is when they come for your stuff. Infuriated and annoyed are linked, and infuriated is when you get so an

Does an individual voter have a responsibility to know also the disgusting events of modern times or only the happy ones? Twitter seemed to overweight discuss-ting events and angry events. Maybe cuz I avoid such things on other platforms,
