great analogy but why doesn’t anyone pay me more for crunching out more tickets?

almost everyone on HN is interested in biology and especially biohacking but does not actually realise they have none of the necessary expertise to judge claims coming from that field; the level of discourse on these topics is sometimes wor

the center of life criterion is much more encompassing than that if you get a serious audit

judges and prosecutors are not stupid, most of the time they are just overworked, so yes, as soon as someone directs their attention to this bulletproof setup, it falls apart and you go to prison

you folks are clearly much smarter than me: i barely have time to make snarky comments on hn next to all the other enjoyable stuff i do in my life, nevermind actually purposefully dig into informational rubbish for reasons of misplaced curi

sounds like this dude got caught in someone’s promo packet assembly. i wouldn’t worry too much if i were him. this’ll be deprecated in three years or so once it served its purpose to signal how good of an engineer the person who made it as

of course not, you have to acquire their LLC to let them skip the interview process. so building stuff does count, but only if done commercially

i don’t think people realise just how much of data degradation in the age of everything being documented online is a good thing. nobody wants to see your cringe from 20 years ago. the internet is a conduit for culture and much of it has to

that is simply false but it does demonstrate the level of understanding the general public, including HN, has on this issue. nanoplastics, once again, have no proven health effects. what does at least have some attested health effects are t

if only there was actually any good evidence of microplastic impact on health instead of a moral panic. microplastics will sink to the bottom of the sea and get buried under dirt on land, becoming part of the geology anyhow. for something w
