For a moment I thought you meant hardcover copy and was wondering where you found one! It's a paperback, but an important enough book I'd love to have a hardcover version if one were available. Can't agree more!

Please don't comment on articles that you are unwilling to engage with beyond the headline alone. This is part of HN's rules to keep the discussion from being so superficial

You're behaving foolishly. If you spend just a moment looking at it you'd see the author isn't even taking the religious text he's quoting seriously! So your great fear of accidentally interacting with a religious indivi

Sounds like maybe you have 4 users, based on your pricing ($15 per month each). Pretty cool! The jump from 0 to nonzero users to multiple users is huge, really impressive. The question is how do you think you got those users? What drew them

It's also nice that they're able to run portably out of one executable with all dependencies linked statically, such a fresh breath of air from the old days of having to spend hours searching for the DLLs to download to make the m

Taiwan, China, same thing. Mainland China is just a renegade province of Taiwan and will be brought to heel sooner or later.

Ah, maybe I was confusing the two effects. Good explanation, thanks. I guess holding the temperature better makes it feel like it heats more evenly, but only after it's well preheated. It's definitely my goto for recipes where kee

This comment makes a lot of sense if you're a time traveler from several decades ago, but a lot has changed since the 1960s. There are plenty of very diverse suburbs in any sense of the word and suburbs now also run the gamut across al

Well actually, Cast iron heats more evenly and with more thermal mass retains the even steady temperature more readily against swings as you add ingredients. You can get this benefit without the cleaning weirdness by getting an enamel cover

Russia and China were totally different in 1988. They had no geopolitical power. China hadn't developed it yet and the USSR was on the verge of or early stages of imploding. We have no idea what would happen

Deflation in goods and real estate, etc, but inflation in services, especially eldercare and healthcare.

Indeed. And that is why we naturally fear new technology, if we have enough sad experience of human nature or reading of history-- because we fear it will give more power to those who will use it against us, a fear that is very justified by

WOW. That's incredible. Well, that explains it. Ignoring the foster part, it's not the same to have a parent for whom you're one of 100 chldren! I certainly would feel more like I was imposing too.

I'm not saying that if you have a time machine and have to choose whether to hop in or not, that it would be better. But it's really worth stopping and realizing how many of the problems solved by modernity, were also caused by mo

You are drawing some sort of analogy between two dissimilar conflicts. Yet what the analogy precisely entails is totally unstated. I am willing to entertain the idea that there is some relationship between them but it is very hard to do th

No, yew.rs does not address this problem (WASM can't directly touch the DOM or other browser APIs such as WebGPU, only JS can) It just wraps around calls to JS. Everytime you use yew.rs or some other "pure rust" or whatever f

A lot has changed in school in 100 years. Less recess, less shop classes, and the average kid 100 years ago finished school after 6th or 8th grade, not after 12th or even "16th" (college) as today. They also probably got more othe

This entire HN thread reads like some fiction made up by a free software activist 15 years ago, as a dystopian cautionary tale. It's all complaints and speculations about stuff that just worked back then. Back then we had our music loc
