But if you get a blood test you can probably see if you are deficient. I asked a GP, just a general Dr here where I live, and they had no problem checking and were well aware of vitamin D levels and what it can cause. Maybe you should state

Why do some people think loud cars or machines sound good? Do you want hearing damage? What makes that attractive to some humans? Have you just forced yourself to like it? I absolutely hate it along with other loud sounds. If you are in th

That sounds like if you write proper C code correctly you don’t make memory errors when in reality it’s very common to not write correct code. That’s why rust came along, to stop that behaviour, you simply can’t make that mistake, and hence

F*ck cars. Luxury car brands do not deserve any special treatment. As for all the same tired debates on HN about cars, it is so simple. Average people in the city do not need a car if the city is properly and humanely designed. Yes some wor

Mathematical explanation is not required in many areas. Perhaps you can’t perfectly explain it but you can at least understand it statistically. For example is not currently possible to mathematically explain people’s behaviour, but there i

Daily reminder, America is not the whole world. Conservatives, neo liberals and capitalists have pillaged your country. Other places are doing a lot better.

Current capitalist society is not structured around reducing work for everyone. Productivity can increase with new tools and technology but we don’t really seem set up to actually make that better for anyone.

What is your point? The long term predictions can be correct with some error bars on the time it takes. If those bars are just a few lifetimes, sure maybe you wont see it, but that is still instant on a planetary timescale.

Let's automate HN article posting and responses. Here's my gpt response: I totally agree with this article. It seems like we are reaching a point where computational power is becoming so ubiquitous that it is no longer a different

Where has time to market and productivity ever been a factor for C and the C ecosystem? My most "productive" languages have been declarative languages like Haskell (depending on how you measure that). I don't care if it takes

Oh yes of course, the immutable, unchanging law, a divine commandment, with only a single interpretation decides what’s ethical, good and just.

Cars are sacred property to some. I’ve known people who have been assaulted by drivers for daring to touch their precious vehicle as they are about to be ran over.

I don’t think this is necessarily new. On the level of fields the universe is not nice little particles or waves in neat groups in a vacuum. It’s a roaring, swirling turbulent ocean. Yes what we call a proton is still a particular configura

Considering they edited the title and the ambiguous “healthy”, probably yes the whole thing is shady.

That sanitized corporate dystopia wants to have the same restrictions, scarcity and limitations as real life. The theory: you could let you explore limitless worlds only bound by your imagination and current compute power. Current meta visi

The FSF and Stallman are pretty mid tbh. The whole thing seem hopelessly outdated. Some of the media on the FSF website is extremely cringe, the weird cartoons in particular. Stallman is problematic and it feels like that tarnishes things.

Based comment. Same mindset applies to lots of things on HN: C vs Rust, Php vs typescript, email vs chat app. Majority of HNers seem like they are seething that change happens and what they learnt before is the only correct choice. Best way

It's more than abusive, social media is filled with frothing car fanatics that want to kill cyclists merely for slowing them down from being able to roar up to the traffic light and stop in traffic a few seconds earlier.

How do you get reducing car dependence in cities = factory farm? Walkable, rideable, and a plentitude of public transport is infinitely more sustainable and humane than vast expanses of parking lots.

Alternatively we also all drive at 40km/h or less in cities and urban areas, accidents much less likely to be fatal.
