It seems like Japan (not a corrupt government) helped eradicate polio in the country Nigeria in exchange for some amount of debt from Nigeria. I'd think the Gates' foundation would have paid Japan directly avoiding all of the prob

That's a (self-admitted) assumption made by @Hellchick. The Facebook post in question could have been relegated off of feeds for a different reason.

From about 100 packages, I've had a handful come past the "guaranteed date", one that was entirely wrong (someone else's items), and worst of all, one that was missing an item that took a huge argument with a CSR to get

I also could not get it to work on two separate domains. Everything seems fine, and I was able to renew the certs with LE just now. I believe all my DNS records look fine, and I have the domain ownership set correctly with GAE. Not sure wha

To me, no part of that article was that surprising (impressive nonetheless) except for the $6500 headlight repair from "driving through deep water". Wonder how exactly that happened, and what damage was caused to the car.

For those who like videos, I would highly recommend utilizing Andrew Ng's Coursera ML videos for step one. I found his lectures to be good high level overviews of those topics. The course in general lacks rigor, but I thought it was a

I think is about new Arduino products not being open source. Source files for old Arduino products are still directly available.

What did you think of it as? In my mind, this store is in no way associated with Trader Joe's, but sells exclusively Trader Joe's products (I've only been in it once); that made it into a kind of Trader Joe's. I think th

The guy clearly tried to position himself as a pseudo-Trader Joe's though. He called it Pirate Joes and only sold products from Trader Joe's. It seems like everyone thought of it as a kind of Trader Joe's. Even though copyrig

That article does not, but for the curious, an investigation into the deaths (involving parties from field experts to local police) has been "essentially closed" and it was determined an unknown toxin led to the death of the two b

It's not more convenient for Linux/FF/Chrome users to pirate. It can be a "better" option for those users to pirate if they absolutely need higher quality, but that's in no way more convenient than using Netfli

Alternatively, decreasing the size of the oven wouldn't make a difference. If that was the case, this recipe would work in a small toaster oven. The inverse square law is factually sound, but incorrectly applied. My intuition would spe

I thought mail was firstly directed to a center dependent only on zip, and it's then further sorted. If the zip is correct, but a parcel ends up on the wrong side of the country, the mistake isn't due to a typo but probably physic

I believe it was explicitly ruled in the courts that Youtube's automated captions were not up to the standard required by the ADA. Not sure where I read that, but it was probably on HN somewhere.

DigitalOcean's payment model is great for this. What you see is what you get without small charges or other fees. I vaguely remember Lightsail's release being met with poor feedback on HN because they really missed part of what ma

For readers confused as I was, the Facebook post only says they're "looking at" better Linux support. The author buries in a comment a target for flawless Linux support[1]. But I'd expect if flawless Linux support was ac

I think a more apt description would be Snapchat was not designed for broadcasting. I wouldn't write it off because it wasn't meant for a purpose, or because its primary use is for interaction with real life friends/acquainta
