I can understand why the push for vaccines even though they don't stop spreading and catching it. They seem to improve chances of survival and lessen chances of severe disease. That said, if the government takes away benefits, then it

I am baffled by the responses of some other commenters. How some can still defend the CEO here is beyond my wildest guess. Sure, the boat and the house stuff are not really things that should put the CEO in bad light, that much we can all a

If Apple allowed a jailbreaking application make it to the App Store, then I do not trust their processes to not fail again.

Based on this user's comment history, 3 deaths must have happened in the past 13 days, since they only knew of one death here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28256304 I have a hunch they are lying, otherwise stat

For me it's not about being anti-vax. My wife had horrible abdominal pain after getting her Pfizer shot, and she still suffers from fatigue almost two weeks after. We had COVID and for her it was much easier than the vaccine. When it c

I visited https://copilot.github.com/ , and I don't know how to feel. Obviously it's a nice achievement, not gonna lie. But I have a feeling it will end up causing more work. e.g. the `averageRuntimeInSeconds` exam

Sounds just like the kind of book I wanna read. Unfortunately I wasn't able to pay for it due to "merchant configuration". I imagine there are no region restrictions, right? I've already contacted support though.

Yeah, I'm fairly aware. And it is a bit painful to see, because in the end I prefer some good discourse vs "winning" or "losing" an argument.

I don't see the fact about the Uyghur celebrity you singled out as interesting, for the simple fact that she's in China. As is painfully well known outside of China, they have a way of making businessmen disappear: https:/&#

I purchased the Sony WH-1000XM4 for $278, and the only thing I can complain about is that the name is hard to remember. The comfort, sound quality, and ANC is just right. The price is a bit higher than I would have preferred, but didn’t fin
