Well done. Forgot about that movie.

Perhaps. Although couldn't that just be because we're all so used to corporations having no real accountability and only occasionally deciding to make symbolic gestures as penance for their mistakes? You're probably right tha

You know, I'm happy on some level for that individual. It seems like a great stroke of fortune. On another level, it bothers me that there are such large institutions that can arbitrarily "bless" random people like a deity

It's really about what's effective. For a lot of people who deal with depression, feeling like people are blaming them makes things way worse. In that sense, blame simply doesn't work to bring about a different outcome, even

That's exactly what OP was saying.

Cruising would really be cheaper than just parking? Maybe in NYC, SF, and places like that. For the other 99% of the world, I have a hard time believing it.

It's funny that a study is now required to show this. I remember before Facebook was even a thing. Back then, it was just common knowledge that an obsession with one's social life would lead to shallowness and a sense that one&#x2

Interesting questions. It makes me think of some things I read about how the brain integrates different sensory information into a seamless experience. I don't have a source for this, but the idea I remember is that nerve impulses fr

Positively shocking.

For me, it's more like, "How I never replaced email with Facebook."

It was actually a fact, not an ad hominem. You clearly know less than you think you do about GPS. Ironically, it seems like the mark of a contrarian to assume that people are attacking you when they aren't and a lot of climate skeptics

I feel like this is getting so many upvotes because people are confusing Ethereum Classic with Ethereum.

But doesn't that kind of assume there was previously no free way to host private repos?

I see it that way and I don't want to leave.

I guess they're thinking the ends justify the memes.

I feel like it's sadly telling that such a poorly written article has managed to sucker at least 175 HNers into up-voting it (assuming that's how the score system works).

This feels like a completely cruel and inappropriate reaction to that person's post. You're assuming a million things based on a few comments.

Pretty broad but, from one section in the article, sounds like they're using convolutional layers in their networks?

I love how people reacted to this like it was a serious comment.

As in getting an interface definition file? My guess would be no. I don't believe that compiled methods are annotated with any type information for the arguments or anything else. You might be able to infer something about the ABI by l

I upvoted just to make the mods angry.

People are so exceptionally bad at making arguments. He wasn't saying this at all. He was, in fact, saying the opposite--that the economics shouldn't matter and that China has been deserving of the international community's

This was my first thought. I think the premise is founded in a kind of survivorship bias which is worsened by the fog of time.

I think the word "Nour", meaning "light" as people have pointed out, is also commonly used as a woman's name in the middle east. Maybe irrelevant but who knows?

I had the same initial reaction when I saw this. But the article appears to be pretty reasonable actually. I didn't catch strong hints of an agenda.

Sure, but the author is really just trying to explain the data that is available.

You should read the article. The interesting parts involve a discrepancy observed for people with two premarital partners in particular.

I'm sure there are counterexamples to my statement but I personally believe that it is true that most people would struggle with knowingly sending soldiers to their death. It's just my opinion.

by davesque 8y ago
Because I think people take pause when considering sending their own countrymen to their deaths. They won't think as long or as hard if killing the enemy is simply a question of deploying robots. Think drone strikes. Also, recent dev

It's named after that comic. Images from the comic are littered all over the app.
