Because it's a lazy and boring article. It takes what could have been an interesting topic and returns to the beaten to death theme of how "Gangster rap music is ruining this generation. Things were so much better back in my day&q

Most media is senseless noise that deteriorates mental health. The problem is that when there is truly nothing important to report on many media publications resort to fabricating outrage and making stories where there are none. Engagement

Many professionals still shoot medium format on film because the digital counterparts are ludicrously expensive and lower resolution. Hasselblad's come with their own brand premium (in part because of stories like this), but many older

Developing at home (even color) is easy, especially if you have a sous vide machine to maintain temperature. Scanning 120 is also easier than 35mm because the larger negative means you can actually get away with using something like an Epso

I would say the media is just as culpable here given how much influence they have on public opinion in America (and I would garner that's where most politicians get their information.) FB directly competes with most media publications

I'd like to see more transparency from NYT on how they're actually collecting, retaining, and distributing user data given both their data science and privacy efforts.

I have never seen an Instagram ad on my phone using both the Android and iOS apps. I don't know why, but there are certain accounts that have ads disabled (I'm not the only one [0]). I guess I just got lucky. My alternate accounts

"They will remember everything you ever say for eternity.' Maybe. But outrage that results in meaningful action lasts a few months at most. The first person shooter industry is fascinating to me. Somehow Call of Duty is still extr

I involuntarily fasted through college simply because I was too poor and busy to afford full meals multiple times a day. I would often only eat dinner, sometimes lunch too, but still managed to maintain a healthy BMI and ate enough to susta

New graduates are even more out of touch. In what other industry can you graduate with a bachelors (or have no degree at all) and obtain a six figure job in return for a few weeks of studying?

Seriously. This thread has some fucking crazy people in it with very little self-awareness.

OK, so? It's easy to find abstracts of papers that support just about any conclusion, but you still need to provide a link if you're making an argument (and it isn't obvious if that's what you're doing.) Furthermore

Very interesting. I did a similar project for my machine learning class in grad school. I'm curious what kind of architecture/model framework you used for this.

Furthermore, why didn't NYT do more research into whether the executive's statements were actually truthful? They've extensively investigated other tech companies, but I've found their reporting on Google to be lackluste

Not to mention that flags on HN are much more powerful for suppression discussion than downvotes are on Reddit. I find discussion on this website pretty unrewarding because a story can go from hundreds of upvotes and top of the front page t

Amazon does not collect more data than Google does, even by your own definition. In fact, Google uses Amazon to collect even more information than they do innately by mining Gmail for purchase receipts.

I see this argument a lot of Hacker News and Reddit. While it's true that both websites are comprised of a large and diverse body of individuals who share differing opinions and various subjects, that doesn't mean you can't d

It's honestly hilarious and sad to see so many commenters here defending and excusing Google because the services they provide are "free." Somehow Hacker News thinks this argument isn't applicable to Facebook. The truth

It comes from cinema where they use complementary color grading, but really it's just people discovering the split toning tool in Lightroom.

It seems like photographers nowadays are only capable of portraying eastern Asia in one way: rainy alleyways, streets, and taxies at night, splitoned lazily to complementary colors in Lightroom. It takes maybe five minutes to create these p
