Can you imagine a post on HN where someone says "when Bose announced QuiteComfort Ultra Earbuds 2nd Gen I was so excited!". Apple has a serious reality distortion field about it. For normal products this would have been a return.

It is kinda funny, but cost and benefit analysis is not foreign even to Mossad. Mossad would prefer quite a few people's data stolen, but they are not going to carry out a black abroad for most of them.

Mars is super short of hydrogen (and lacks the magnetic field to guard it). We'd need to crash a bunch of ice asteroids into it to get in the water and heat it up, then there could be a stab at terraforming it. So far we seem to be mor

1) If a signal is detected, not having a protocol for another 20 years would not make any difference, who cares if the response comes in 10000 years or 10020? Then again, assuming the origin and wavelength is published, sending some gigawat

Failures rate is even less a suitable indicator. Going up 100km is achievable by a simple single stage solid fuel rocket. Going to orbit requires way way more complexity, including a giant first stage that can fail in atmosphere.

Kids know jack shit about how to learn or help others learn, and so do most adults, and no-one should expect the contrary. Having everyone flourish under a common education regime was never a goal for any education system (at least until NC

The concern is they decide a site non-compliant, can't do shit about it in absence of British presence, then go after Britons accessing the site. Kiwifarms stopped serving UK IPs, not because of fear of enforcement but rather because t
