I wrote about this last year and everyone here picked on me calling my article AI generated, so I shut down my curiosity blog.

I enjoyed this article for it's tongue-in-cheek approach. Thanks Victor!

It's quite easy to get past this of course. > Yes, Brian H. is a mayor in Australia. He serves as a councillor for Hepburn Shire, northwest of Melbourne, and has been re-elected to this position. Notably, he gained attention for cha

I love looking at books in people's photos. Here's what I found in yours. I hope you don't mind! ---- Bad Blood by John Carreyrou - A detailed account of the Theranos scandal. The Founders by Jimmy Soni - Explores the early d

It's a great idea but perhaps needs to be executed a little better. Hoping the op reads these comments as us all just being grumpy sysops but takes the positives from them, and works on rip3 with better system-level safety. And for eve

I had a situation where I needed to speak to Police some time ago. An sms about the weather was sent, which allowed me to speak to someone, and then after the call, it took me to bbc weather. It was brilliant and I really commend it.

On the other hand, everyone is just someone, somewhere. Let's not criticise people for not giving enough of an intro to people.

Not a bad idea. There'll always be someone who says "but I can already do that with X" and then someone who replies to that with "but I can already do that with Y" and in the end when you're done trying to stic

That's a little unfair. If you don't mind me asking, what generation are you from? Perchance you're newer than me to Earth, among those who find it hard that others have different opinions?

Perhaps it's the only way to survive? And what comes first, the mission, or being able to tell people you did your best but failed to build the thing you set out to build? Perhaps most of us are more interested in fairness than progres

Lot of people unhappy about this yet not at all unhappy (or even caring) about the 1,000s of others who started out for profit. And while we're all here hacking away (we're hackers, right?) many of us with startups, what is it we&

Fantastic place, and your tickets will last for a year. There's also the computer museum close by (separate ticket). Really great place to walk around, and I think, historically important to all of us here. The original home of the hac

I read your book for the first time a few months ago after someone here recommended it. I was hooked. It took me back to my beginnings (99/00) when the internet was different, when we had dial up and there was still discovery. I apprec

Sometimes, doing something different does result in something better. For example, EVs. Compare EVs to ICEVs and you can point out a lot of faults, but ICEVs have had 100 years of refinement. Perhaps you're comparing battle hardened SA

Unfortunately growing up in poverty, there weren't that many times they stopped us doing stupid things. I feel like it has given us street smarts, yet at the same time, I couldn't imagine doing the same to my children. Weak strong

I don't think we can isolate any one variable. Poverty does tend to correlate to crime , but poverty never exists in a vacuum. Population density probably has a greater bearing on crime, and poverty and population tend to go hand in ha

I agree. That's a very good point. There isn't the same level of community spirit here in the UK that there was 60-80 years ago. Things change, and I'm sure population is a significant variable in the equation, but not the on

Apologies if it upset you, not my intention, but the prevailing feeling (in the UK at least, and these are UK HN hours) is that Gen X were quite absent parents for the most part. They weren't as strict as TGG or Boomers, but weren&#x27

I'm not sure about the first point. I grew up watching zombie films, playing resident evil, all those games, and have no feelings of going out and doing it to actual people. Yes, graphics were worse when we grew up (assuming same rough

I think we should be able to talk about it here. It shouldn't be a taboo subject where we fear pointing out correlation between immigration and poverty, and poverty and crime, links immigration and crime. Increase poverty and you incre

To be fair, it's not just the phones. It's that we've been conditioned for instant gratification over many years (most of our adult lives if we're millennials) and this extends to knowing someone is OK. There's no m
