   Do most solar installations not include batteries?

   I get that, but the first transaction they make is considered dirty. So everyone I transfered to is going to make an illegal transaction first thing they do...

   I steal 100 bitcoins. I then transfer a satoshi to as many legit bitcoin addresses I can find. Now any transaction those addresses make will be illegal?

   Sort of related.. but I'd say classical composing. Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Prokofiev, etc. Where are the modern classical powerhouses? Contemporary classical is a scary, awful thing for my ears. The best I have found is act

   Your landing page is going to depend highly on your target audience. I worked at a place whose demographic was women aged 35+. Our landing page looked god awful -- super long, giant graphics and text, testimonials, autoplaying video, etc.

   That's fair, and I understand that pain. It's a couple things. I may actually be wrong, and don't want to leave my stupidity open on the internet for all to see. And secondly, for those who figure out my alias in real life

   It's nothing fancy. I'm simply deleting all my comments/posts on reddit and other forums I've participated in, manually. Of course, you can reach out to the admins and ask them to delete your data, but they may not be

   It would be appreciated. I've recently been removing all history for my main alias (of which I don't use on HN for this very reason) from the internet.

    If you look at the history of Bell Labs, the scientists were mostly given free reign of what to work on, with the idea that it would somehow benefit communications. What did we get out of it? The transistor, the laser, cellular technology,

    You don't try to get promoted in engineering. You do a kickass job, and those above you notice and promote you or at least give you a raise/bonus. Now that sounds naive, but the reason this works is because you are actually in

    I worked for the USPS at their national training facility, and most of the people there were contractors. The "real" USPS employees, the ones being trained, were employees. Apparently the reason was due to USPS employees getting

    Depends on the State. In Oklahoma, it wasn't allowed. In California, you can.

    It's pretty impressive, but that damn notch. The amount of money/time app developers and companies have spent adapting to the stupid notch is absurd.

    I don't get their test case. They took it to the lab, and thawed it up to room temperature ? That's not going to happen. It's going to get warmer, maybe just warm enough for the bacteria to thaw, and then immediately die.

    The 200mph 2x4 by itself doesn't seem unreasonable to me. When I lived in Oklahoma and was searching for a storm shelter, a common strength-test was to launch 2x4s at them at extreme speeds, in excess of 120mph I believe. Example: ht

    Anyone know how Bitcoin plans to deal with this: https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions I saw this posted on HN, I think earlier this week? And it was around 220k. Now it's 280k.

    What is the web standard about delaying scripts deliberately encoded into the page? Why downvote and no explanation? I want to know if I missed something.

    This shouldn't be up to the browser. He even notes edge cases where this performs unexpectedly -- unacceptable. If this is such an issue and can actually be a performance increase, then someone should release a script with the same fu

    I don't know why people keep bringing up the weather. I moved from OK to CA because there was nothing to do in Oklahoma, especially for someone with a family. There is an endless amount of things to do in California. I can drive a
