I don't think they're that hard to find anymore. I just opened the first link (Target) and the PS5 Digital is ready for pick up in 2 hours.

>Slightlky faster thans a PS5 A PS5 is 10.3 Tflops and costs $400. If this is for gaming, it's not a great value. The PS5 is an incredible value so anyone building a PC for gaming should be aiming for the high end.

Having a “women only” car shows there are deep societal issues that are normalized due to the country’s ultra patriarchal ways. A normal solution would be to prosecute the perpetrators but Japan doesn’t take women seriously. A “women only”

And yet a longtime head of state got assassinated with a gun. No peaceful nation has political assassinations. The people are just as violent but with fewer resources to act on that violence. The sexual assault of women is one notable proje

How kind of you to take one of the most racist and sexist societies that’s politically identical to the religious nutters you’re talking about. America did not ban abortion and it’s less restrictive than in Japan. Also weird to call out sho

So well behaved that trains have women-only cars because of how prevalent sexual assault is.

Even on HN, you’re in the minority. If you took HN as a representative sample, you’d think Linux was the #1 OS by a long shot even though it’s a rounding error for personal usage. There’s a big old bubble here.

Between eBay and PayPal fees, I believe it's been at least 13% for decades.

A blatantly false flamebait comment that started this whole thing is still standing so no, he is not doing just that, and the community supports misinformation as long as it makes them feel good.

Some conditions don't exist in many places. Someone can have a self-driving car and use it for life in Arizona and it doesn't matter that it wouldn't work in Alaska. It's still progress and still useful to a subset of pe

The 787 simulates a much lower altitude and has more humid air I believe which makes recovering from long flights much easier in my experience. I look forward to the 777X which has the features of the 787 with the space of a 777.

It has never been about seeking a neutral position. What is neutral about Vitalik shilling the Ethereum ecosystem?[0] He's clearly motivated to say positive things about it. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3387

I think this was the wrong move. The original source is better in this case and you are letting your anti-corporate bias and personal opinion affect your decision making as a moderator. What makes this so awful to read to you?

Not the GP but a larger total number means you have a higher likelihood of being one of the people to be granted entry. A country of 1000 people may accept 10 people and that be a very large per-capita rate, but odds of you being one of 10

Severance at most recent layoffs has been very generous. Getting laid off sucks but this is just about the best way to do it.

Funny because it used to be 15% and in a few years, someone else will probably be saying 25%. Why are you complaining about inflation? Just pay 10% more, it's that simple!

Nearly every restaurant in London automatically adds ~12% even for 2 people. I don't know about the rest of the UK but it can't be drastically different.

Does it get tiring being this cynical all the time? Admit it, nothing he could have said would have satisfied folks like you. This was a tactful announcement and a generous severance after providing a job with pay and benefits in the top 0.

They don’t have enough and the compensation isn’t low enough to bring down the average anywhere near this. Within the US, only base salary is adjusted up to 10-15% which is less than 10% of total comp. Internationally they pay significantly

It's a huge undertaking, that's for sure, which is probably why Musk wanted to back out. But $44B may seem like pocket change if it can get Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok level engagement and monetization. Twitter has been stagnan
