Now that’s an album I would like to hear. The Elad Gil feature track would be fire.

It's sort of the default state of assumption about the world in my opinion. "Everyone is an idiot except me" makes the world incredibly simple - frustrating, but simple. "Other people are incredibly bright and talented&q

Is this the first commercially available robotic projection device? I’ve been waiting patiently for VR+robotic applications - this project but controlling some Boston Dynamics is a terrifying military, or an amazing football team depending

They did, you're not wrong at all, but just to add a little bit of clarity the space shuttle was never as reusable as was hoped - it wound up costing a huge amount of time and money to retrofit the shuttle again before each launch. Reu

My mentor at a small ISP in the early 2000s had friends and sites like this. I even remember Monkey.org specifically. I honestly feel like I grew up in the ruins of the old internet - too young to be a old beard and too old to be a digg&#x2

STD is so eager to hit you over the head with “see how HORRIBLE society is?!?!?” The Expanse actually has its own world with its own problems that isn’t just a shallow mirror of the writers view of today. Also much less melodrama, although

For whatever it’s worth, everyone who has driven my model 3 immediately wants one and it has inspired 4 purchases so far. Even the most EV hating Porsche fan was converted. It has been described to me by those friends and family and by myse

My understanding of the world suggests that the value of gold and the value of bitcoin are equally "imaginary". Should humans not spend energy on their imaginations?

by erulabs 6y ago
Nothing in life is free. While I concur BTC mining is expensive (and I'm a huge fan of movements to Proof-of-Stake (Vitalik is a genius)), I'd love to see a comparison to the movement of gold. Large sums of gold are regularly move

Thank you for the vital context. “Democrats are to blame” -is- an opinion, but “No one who scaled the walls of the capital was a Trump supporter” is a statement of fact which can be disproven trivially (literally hundreds of photos of the h

Technically, Parlor the company didn't do anything you mentioned? They failed to moderate - but I mean, so has Facebook? So has the comment section of my old blog from 2001? If a user posts a call to violence - well to hell with them a

Well said! However toxic parlor is, I think there is some danger in painting it as radically right or alt right or whatever term. Someone just has to pull up their homepage and only slightly avoid critical thought to come to the conclusion

Hrm - I play Clash Royale and the clan wars are typically locked-level cards. Early on when you’re getting started, the levels of cards for sure matters - but it stops fairly quickly. I’ve spent $10 on the game and regularly make it to the

I love seeing the Starcraft folks come out of the HN community! Have loved Starcraft and sc2 and still watch the major tournaments - but I’m always curious that the most popular RTS of all time is so ignored by “PC RTS” players: Clash Royal

Seeing as encounters with law enforcement are probably more deadly on average than jaywalking - I wholly support this change. Being poor in a car city is something most folks in the circles I run in now have never experienced or thought abo

I’m building a startup that aims to help with this - but as others have mentioned - who wants to pay for two computers? One solution is re-purposing an old PC into a home-server - once that’s setup, tools like Skaffold start to shine - loca

You know, not trying to bring ideology into HN, but if you just capitalize the S in state and the D in duty, what you’ve said is rather terrifying.

The M1 does one thing: run MacOS and MacOS apps. They can control the vast majority of the compiled code that will be run on the chip - unlike an x86 platform where the exact same architecture is used for desktops, servers and everything in

Value investing is quite interesting, but when trying to come up with "value" picks, I wind up finding out about companies I'd never heard of in my life before. I do a tiny bit of this. Mostly, I invest in companies whose pro

Fairly sure the point about not understanding how a car works when you turn the key is meant to represent increasingly complex systems - and for sure knowing “every single bit” is a tall order... but that expression (using a car engine as a

If anything - I believe the most lasting lesson from the world wars was to avoid attempts to “shape societies” at almost all costs - for better or for worse.
