I didn't think the "Stories" feature would be as controversial as "MobileCoin" integration but apparently it does on HN? This would just push me to disable it (if possible) whenever it is finally rolled out or, insp

One of the best films portraying Robert Redford's work. Crazy how all the scenes they were filmed in were easily recognizable as SF Bay area locations, such as their office above the current FOX theater in Oakland, the San Mateo Bridge

My first encounter of the red/blue pill dichotomy was the first Matrix film. With social media like reddit, this idea spawned via memesis and certain communities began imitating their interpretations of what it meant for them. For exam

I remember HN being a place to discuss microcosm of things related to hacking and tech but am saddened to see it lean towards redditesque macro style of cognitive dissonance. If ya'll want to remember 1/6 as some hate-driven eve

When "dog whistles" become loudspeakers to those whom understand the language; a relatively new term I learned about I might add. Back during the beginning of the pandemic, no one would have thought it would be framed as xenophob

Yep and in Japanese culture, tipping is considered rude. In Taiwan, it is rude to not offer to pay first after a lengthy meal with friends or family and tipping is not commonly observed. In the US, some Chinese restaurants will force you

I think this can only be understood if you think in linear terms. I thought it was obvious by the second film that when Neo met the Architect, his five "predecessors" were actually in fact running in parallel with him, like thread

And to think a comedy show framed it better than their mainstream counterparts.. Here's Jimmy Dore's [1] segment referencing a WaPo article [2] and Dr. John Campbell's [3] analysis on why "Japan is doing better" bec

Be that as it may (a "right-wing full blown crazy" thing), you're missing the point of my reply. They did a short interview with a ranch farmer named Bill Bullard on this very topic.

Still interesting to see how people can rush to blame ML post-processing over a trivially overlooked parallax effect even when the former argument/theory may still potentially exist. > btw, is the "Karen" reference really

Agreed as we've been living in the era of deep fakes for a while. I shudder to think how computational photography can advance to such a degree to blur the context to any unsuspecting user, whether accidental or intentional .

Japan has also been known to cram passengers into trains during rush hour. I imagine this practice has probably been fervently deprecated due to covid19. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7kor5nHtZQ

Both. There was an episode in the second `gig` of GITS anime that showcased this model to secure a character's secret ledger before hackers fried his brain. For a brief period, I kept a copy of my /etc/passwd and keyfiles on

But what's considered as an OG account? Age? Short handle? Something that isn't imaginative or a portmanteau of something? I remember the ICQ days where the shorter your ICQ number, you are the OG of OG's..
