Yelp can easily expose businesses to people who are more likely to give bad reviews too. I mean they collect this data on every profile - some reviewers have a TON of 1 star reviews. Hide the restaurants that pay and increase exposure of th

I was thinking black and white photos or geometric patterns would be awesome on this (with the right decor of course).

It's wall art, not the news. The author reads the news just fine with their news subscriptions. The form is more important than the function, at least to the author. Of course it can be achieved in any number of ways, but the author ch

With put_assoc, at least for me, I expected it to work the same way when creating a record vs editing a record, but that isn't the case. While put_assoc is additive when you are first creating the record, the same is not true when modi

I don't know how votes work in PA, but where I'm from the voter picks the machine.

He explained it in the article and it makes sense: > The party affiliation is used as a signal that something fishy might be going on if the ratio of R to D is very different from the votes recorded.

Is there a reason you ommitted the working class from your comment? I find it odd you're addressing everything the parent said except for how globalization affects the working class.

Whenever I hear people propose "radical" ideas about work shifts and weekends, I always wonder how they expect it to work at e.g. nuclear power plants and 911 call centers. Most people, given the opportunity, would opt to take t

I don't really care about the art and I don't know enough about the author to judge him. I do know that I am not fond of certain HN personalities, namely patio11 and jacquesm, which makes me more skeptical of the things they say.

Someone already asked, but I imagine it's the same reason one might put women in lingerie or men in underwear in their blog posts.

It's probably a good idea to cite your sources at least.

Ah I get it now. My question was like asking why mailto: links don't take SMTP servers into consideration. In the US, this is going to be used to print checks ;) The ACH links will be opened by the check printing program to print the c

It doesn't really talk about gateways at all, but says it should be vendor neutral. payto:stripe.com/pk_PU1qgJjo2yW1to?amount=USD:100.0&message=Box+of+chocolates It seems weird to leave payment gateways out of conside

You afix a caption describing an unfortunate scenario onto the song for comical juxtaposition, since the Crab Rave song itself is jovial sounding. For example, one might add the caption "I got fired".

Ah yes! Sorry the settings I posted are for the original crab rave music video in 4k.

Unstructured messages in a serious place is annoying, yes, but in a water cooler area it can set a more relaxed tone. It's a cultural thing and I'd never force someone to endure my style of communication in a place where it's

The non-use of grammar is an adaptation to indicate a different "tone" of communication. As an example, it can be used to indicate sarcasm.

It's pretty common with people I know born from 1980 and beyond. Of course, it gets more common the closer their year of birth is to the aughts. But I guess you are right, everyone doing it today was under 20 at some point.

by dqv 6y ago
Right. Where I'm from, lack of punctuation and capitalization indicates less serious discussion, irony, sarcasm, etc. A non-serious "mood". If someone starts using correct grammar (e.g. I instead of i, periods, commas for int

It's usually a heading in a description of how something works. It is more natural to say either "How it works" (with no question mark) or "How does it work?"

Yeah there are still sneaky sounds in Spanish speech. I still remember thinking Spanish isn't so perfect after all when I learned about about -güe (?) verbs. I can still appreciate that it's still pretty phonemic especially compar

Do you know how they resolve weird grammatical constructions that are now a part of regional dialects? One that comes to mind is "How it works?" Although it sounds weird, it is now common enough that there is no way to retroactive

I see it as the exact opposite. If organization sends me marketing from marketing@ and order details from orders@, I easily have a way to quickly delete or classify marketing@ as spam. I can't do that if they send everything from the s

Do you do that with proc_lib or is it just a completely otp-unaware process like Joe would do?
