I don’t really consider Red Rising dystopian at all. In that world what the Golds do to humans on Earth is considered ancient history. The main character’s rise as a Red is certainly a struggle. And the plight of all Reds and the other colo

Sounds like the big issues are at the compliance level. They’re in a time of the year where lots of companies have much more limited availability of engineering, management, and legal staff. Sure they could easily eat the cost of temporaril

I find this style of writing to be lazy and insulting. “There are fewer than four billion so-called “Internet Protocol version 4” or IPv4 addresses...” They aren’t “so called”. That’s literally the terminology.

Don’t know about cheaper, but Planet (planet.com) offers daily imagery. Worked there a few years ago.

Thing is, it’s not removed. It’s just broken. Very very rarely the zoom will kind of work, just not where and when I expect it to.

I’ve been super annoyed at some bugs in iOS Safari. In particular, double tap to zoom on web pages is completely broken. It’s a really old feature that just suddenly stopped working in the new iOS release.

Damn. I’m surprised I never heard of you guys at the time. I was 20ish around that time living in St Pete. Was seriously looking for an “internet job” at the time even though I had almost no advanced experience. Things sure have changed sin

Exactly. Say you land on the Moon and your ship sticks around for a few months. Micrometeorites can impact and cause minor damage to the surface cooling system. You’re baked at that point. But given the hull is stainless steel repairs are m

If you have carbon based machines replicating on your teeth, isn’t that just more plaque?

Though people’s opinions may differ I consider audiobooks a form of reading, at least being read to. My habits have evolved over the years so that I only consume entertainment books via audio. When it comes to non fiction, mostly technical

1. Most of the technology we work on and with is manufactured in China 2. A significant fraction of engineers, especially in the Bay Area, are of Chinese heritage at some level. By extension, users of HN. 3. Things happening in China have a

Terrible site UI. It hijacks the back/forward buttons to navigate through other content you haven't visited on that site.

Yeah I dislike the bigger trackpad. There’s nowhere to comfortable rest my hands on it. At work they gave me a 2018 MBP and after 2 weeks of suffering I returned it for a 2015 version.

I’m still using my trusty 6s. About a month ago I took my phone in to get the battery replaced. Curious, I asked the Apple rep about a 10s and after some hemming and getting $200 trade-in for my 6s I made the switch. I regretted it immediat

Twitter did the same thing to me a few years back. I registered @machinima back in 2006 or so and would semi frequently post links to interesting machinima videos I liked. After a couple of years I stopped posting for a while and I guess yo

It is possible to know. While we still don’t have the capability to do full brain emulation for hardly any species, we are left with comparison studies. These comparison studies should be as equally valid between humans as animals. We can o

Question about the inflight abort: Soyuz has this too. It was used a few months ago when a launch to the ISS went non-nominal. How is the one on Crew Dragon different?
