I'll add my three rules for exciting travel: 1. Travel alone. 2. Always politely brush off people that approach you. 3. Approach people that look like they're having fun. Alternatively, go places where you have a good friend who w

Relevant to this question is the story of Cortez and his pigs. Spain immediately set up shop in South America, giving us plenty of stories of vast civilizations, but Cortez made just one minor expedition across Florida and did report large

I thought the article answered your question pretty well and they clearly state on their about page that they are not backed by any government and rely on donations. The entire internet points to wikipedia and its consensus mechanism is inh

disclaimer: Yes the grayzone hires RT reporters and has a strongly anti-us take on pretty much everything. Please don't spout "russian propagandist" takes. They've been heard plenty. This is the lack of truth I'm ta

I won't argue the trust system presented here other than to say it sounds exhausting. I want everyone to get as close a proximity to the truth as is possible and for us as a society to achieve consensus around what are the facts and wh

It worked for a time and now it is dying at the hands of bad-faith actors who have worked within their mechanism.

We are all watching user-generated content destroy the very concept of truth, and Wikipedia is example A1. There is no solution. Perhaps truth was always an illusion, but the illusion has been destroyed and it is unravelling society. A cons

I’ve bought and worn out SO many lightning cables. Never before have I dealt with such a poor connector. All my usb c is working fine. All my lightning cables work about half the time, need to be jostled. I know if I buy all new ones AGAIN

I forget the details of the memo, but reading Wikipedia, this criticism resonated with my memory: “It mischaracterizes some sex differences as universal” My sister is also on the spectrum like James has said he is. One of her struggles is i

This is the article. Wikipedias naive crowd sourced model has been co-opted by the state. I can’t read the paywalled new statesman article but I see from their recent covers that they have an agenda on this issue https://thegrayz

I’m sure he takes the appearances he can get after having all his sources of funding cut. I hope you’re being paid well to call people propagandists who have devoted their lives and sacrificed everything to speak truth to power. I don’t tak

Nice find! Was talking to a trumper who was blaming the invasion on the US having a weak president. Seems like the opposite if anything. Biden quarterbacked the maidan coup. Seeing him become president probably wasn’t a happy moment for Put

My rd-2000 does excellent modeling and has a pretty decent action. Sounds and feels much better than the rough old Steinway I play occasionally. Admittedly it cannot compete with the perfectly maintained and positioned Yamaha c7 I also some

Confused. Did the domain change? It’s currently hosted on the product website. Seems like pretty clear, standard content marketing.

First off you’re on hn, which is social media and absolutely optimized for your specific engagement. I also figured the “some” was implied because the world is a complicated place. I do believe we all have our weaknesses, though mindless co

This is a tragedy of the commons situation because people cannot help themselves. What we are actually seeing is users going to TikTok because it is even more engaging. People may say they want to keep up with their friends, but they will c

I had the opposite thought. Couldn’t properly see the images because I don’t have twitter. I even signed up recently just so I could click links and they immediately locked my account for being a bot.

I mean it’s a webpage with html. I would like to know it’s producing the right html. Not necessarily the content, but that the correct content is where you want it.

What about screenshot tests in the ci pipeline? Who updates those? Is there a constant somewhere I can import in my unit tests so I can say “expect this header has no embedded js but says whatever Dave from Marketing wants”

“Fog Reveal” sounds marketed to gamers and military cosplayers. Chilling to think that’s who’s making decisions in police departments.

Why do people insist on endlessly proving that "healthy, happy people do things healthy, happy people do" and the inverse? I agree with the idea in general I guess, but there's nothing here to convince a parent. Just my data

Got their “low end” typeheaven used after hearing about it here. The sensitivity takes some getting used to, but it encourages hard typers like me to soften up, which is better for speed and comfort. Overall love it, totally silent

Along the lines of "just use a dynamic language", we use unknown and any type for a lot of our internal stuff like this. Strongly typed shell, whatever works core.
