You should do all of the above. Make the links into a manual redirect/landing page that offers links to the IP, the onion addresses, a public tor gateway, a page describing how to find sci-hub, [perhaps] also make your "own"

For people who sleep at work to be on call I hear it is usual to pay them a lower than usual rate (40% ish) for every hour of availability which (depending on the time) will change into a [much] higher than usual rate if they have to do any

What most people don't know but is instantly obvious: Disabled people may spend their entire day reading web pages 365 days of the year. An estimate of half a million per year seems entirely reasonable if you cant do anything else. An

Its much simpler actually. If you have a bunch of companies trying to keep their shit together while barely able to make their product and then someone kills himself simple because the situation is no longer worth living - then it is a sad

ALL available meta data should be exposed and forced into tags, categories and folders. Move everything file-like into the file system. Make emails into folders with tagged files. Link Torrents to their files and folders. Treat zips like fo

Like conservation of energy this is the modern mythology. Not sure who is insulting who here, surely our ancestors "knew" all kinds of now know to be nonsensical things. They too believed to be advanced beyond that point. Its actu

I tried autoplay one time then fell asleep. History showed me that it had been playing trump videos for 6 hours. Donald then followed me around for 2 months. (My hypothesis is that youtube is gradually changing all of us into ufologists.) T

Something more sexy than just... https://news.ycombinator.com/rss ...would be nice. Such a nerdy website should really publish an OPML for its top tabs. It would be truly nerdy if they would crawl for available feeds from f

Don't forget to just ask! I usually include a minimal RSS feed example in the email along with some bare basics explaintion. Works surprisingly well. Webmasters care?! <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> &

I one time walked into a bar and took the seat on the other side of the corner from the only guy sitting there. I told him about my day. He looked angry at me with very large eyes and a big frown. I just continued my story as if nothing hap

I take it as a design question. Do we want a society designed for people who like to interact or do we want to design it after the desire for limiting interaction as much as possible? One time, on a crowded train, an elderly lady just start

And when they are that noisy it happens only 1 or 2 times per year at most. Give people a bit of room to have fun. If it is [much] more often they might get kicked out. Informing the neighbors or inviting them to the party also works. If yo

I one time kept saying that one shouldn't have a General forum - but no one understood. The only way to have the desired archive structures is to not have a dumping ground. Non of any kind.

The most significant to me is that all the death destruction and suffering was all to further enrich some 5ish rich dudes. It is significant because this aspect of the west has not changed at all. Just look how our historians are happy to a
