Overwatch difficult? I can see Chess.com being a relevant "game" that builds reserves. But is Overwatch mentally draining in useful ways? It's a twitchy sort of game, and if you aren't doing team vox communication there

Yes, and I read a very invigorating explication of Spinoza on Facebook this morning.

Exactly. It's a highly competitive world & it's hard to imagine how long we can continue with "1970s" style government: a decade to approve new bridges, out of control public unions, confiscatory tax rates, NYC subwa

Is it a "blow" if the policy was never actually in effect?

I think the most important thing here is that we stop to think about the gender normativity of the unidentified person's use of the term "guy" in "where's this guy going." /sarcasm

I think this is a common misconception. Various tests have asked ordinary people to determine what wine is expensive and what isn't. They can't. (Also, if people know a wine is expensive, they don't enjoy it more. They enjoy

You're crazy. Higher altitudes and steep slopes in California work very well for Pinot Noir. Pinot planted on flatland in the valleys, however, I would indeed leave alone.

Agree. Not to mention the most obvious point: actual military cooperation hasn't been needed –– not in many years –– in order to show giant explosions, cool jets, or slick military bases. I don't think I've ever read a FOIA-b

You may wish to state that you can (or can't) prove that the Gmail account is yours, and that you opened the Gmail account personally. I believe Gmail provides a discrete set of one-time keys upon account generation.

The MPG chart is of median MPG among production vehicles, not mean, and not mean weighted by person-miles driven.

What does a Sonos user do when he has already deployed a dozen Sonos speakers throughout his house? Will there ever be a microphone-only Echo device that can link into a Sonos system?

A woman in her sixties Googling for "nordstrom" is a Nordstrom customer.

My mother has exactly one way to get to the Nordstrom e-commerce site: search Google for Nordstrom, and then click on the first authoritative-looking Nordstrom search result, which is an AdWords ad, landing her at the home page. Seems expen

Say more. Why do I believe in the Capital Asset Pricing Model and Efficient Markets (both proven wrong) if I invest in Vanguard's cheap S&P 500 ETF? I invest in their S&P 500 ETF because it's the cheapest way to get divers

Spectrum isn't free because it isn't free. That isn't a tautology, it's a statement of fact: spectrum has a dollar value. In nature. In nature it's got a price. Because men will trade, or pay, or war for it. Therefo

It isn't a popular opinion, but my feeling is that publishers' power in the marketplace is severely underestimated. For those of us on HN who do use Facebook, the content experience is pretty similar: a few juicy friend updates pe

I have a MVNO (mobile virtual network operator) selling high-speed LTE plans and smartphones to folks, mostly via phone. Would this be an effective for a small (~15-person) call center?

Seven years ago I cofounded a genuine alternative platform to Google Ads (Publir). The company is doing remarkably well and we have many happy publishers (and users). Happy to answer questions here or via PM.

You are embarrassing yourself. Care to offer a testable hypothesis? You appear to predict that the market, with this rule repeal, will not yield any non-tracking ISP options. Is that your prediction? You may wish to read this (now antiquate

If my argument was impaired, it was certainly less impaired than the parent, who declared that the glorious free and open internet is over (b. 1974, d. 2017) because of this regulatory rollback. By the way, the fact that you cannot predict

Downvoted twice already –– I'm just asking for some simple links to the literature.

Would anyone care to link to evidence that carbon dioxide causes an increase in temperatures? I'd be curious to read some of this literature.

Yes. Of course, there are native born citizens who suck the system dry, too. But a sovereign nation can dispense with illegal aliens. (And should.) Then we must turn to, you know, growing the economy fast enough to support this massive welf

I never had a Mac from age 5 to age 18, despite being very interested in computers. Only PCs. Built them myself. In 2007, at the age of 20, I bought my first Mac. I've bought Macs biannually since then. I have staffed whole companies w

Look, I suppose you're right, but it is the first line on my HN profile. If I was trying to dupe folks, I probably would have done something different.
