The Economist originates and has primary readership, in the USA. In that country, the term "America" is used to refer to "United States of America." When referring to the American continents, the common terms are "

Totally fair POV. I get sense, every time this topic comes up, that people feel that OpenAI somehow owes them to remain non-profit.

I'm confused why people are so outraged on here. Usually everyone cheers on the CEO who becomes a billionaire by leading a successful startup. If the complaints here are because you invested in OpenAI and feel deceived and betrayed, t

The universe is a puzzle?

The answer of "the universe was created by a creator" is no more satisfying. It claims to answer everything, by answering nothing (since "a creator always existed" is axiomatic).

I'll go even further and point out that in 2003, it was proven that particles are not , in fact, the friends we made along the way.

I'm honestly surprised that more people don't go mad in certain fields. If I ponder for 10 minutes the inexplicability of the universe's existence, or the vastness of space, my mind starts to breaks down.

The comment read to me as disrespectfully implying to check with a pediatrician as if OP hadn't already. But ironically... perhaps that was my own disrespectful reading of the comment.

Because we respect our fellow HNers, there should be no doubt that OP did (or is about to do) the literal most obvious thing of consulting with a pediatrician. They're asking for support and advice from their community.

No, and Mickey does not belong to Walt Disney either. If Hans had created a business that sustained to this day, then that would be different situation.

I must be the only one that is not bothered by Disney having a permanent monopoly over Disney characters. They created the characters, they nurtured them, and they maintain their image to this day and this is their business. I am not at a

Most people would not see any problem in spending 8 hours over two days enjoying an activity by oneself. I can guarantee that if you watched 5 minutes of Dune or Gravity on your $20 (or $2000) TV and then on an AVP, you would say: “Oh, I s

AVP is for when I want to binge Fallout in 2 days on a jaw dropping huge screen floating above me, when my fam has no interest in watching five minutes of it.

Again though, where are the derived results? I found very very few in CT, where other branches are replete. Back to my example, abstract algebra has one derived result after another. CT is just... statements. It's "observationa

This applies to any ultra-bright success and not just music, no? I was briefly a "star" in silicon valley for a project I did. Random people at conferences knew who I was and would smile when they met me. But the years roll by a
