"Truth is that women don't generally do a lots of activities." I'd strongly disagree with this. They seem to be organising and doing things constantly, in my experience (married 40s male).

I use mine 10+ hours a day as the primary tool in the work I do and enjoy it a lot. It's a bargain to me. Everything works and the OS stays out of my way so can completely focus on the primary apps I use. I remember the early years of

Isn't their choice a personal gesture? It could be that something in the book spoke to them and their using the book in this way means they will endeavour to hold to that message from the book.

They might be doing it intending that they will remember and endeavour to hold true to some message of the book.

The most enjoyable cities/suburbs I've experienced around the world have been fairly dense in terms of narrow streets and multi storey buildings. 3-6 storey buildings on average. NYC and SF already have a good amount like this, th

I've never forgotten a Hacker News comment about the same idea - might have predated Uber even. If parking costs increase, and self-driving cars can recharge cheaply, then we'll see them slowly navigating streets en masse while wa

We have an offering in my city where apartments/housing is dedicated for a mix of homeless and low-income earners, with on-site support/training. I don't know if it's changed slightly, but I remember something about it o

I'm only seeing plain text and offsite links, then gaps where I assume there might be images? I've turned off ad/script blocking, but still nothing. Chrome/OSX. What am I missing?

This is my problem also. I have a shallow desk (2') and then the mount intrudes the displays enough that I can't push my laptop back or tilt it as far as I sometimes need. Further, the riser isn't tall enough so my screens ha

I'm not familiar with how cookies work these days, but could you build up your base profile, then back up the cookie and overwrite with it periodically to maintain a certain balance?

If not this, at least find ways to make it easier for parents to moderate their children's usage without peer pressure working against them so aggressively. This was a suggestion in the comments about Utah taking action on this front -

I'd guess that YC advised them to launch now, maybe to get the idea in front of any people (employees, advisers, customers, etc) who could accelerate the concept. And YC would be betting that their experience counts for something beyon

I'd agree with that about driving behaviour around visible children. It's considered to be something that would improve cycling safety too: more cyclists creates greater awareness in general, and safety for further cyclists. One t

Aren't we talking about pedestrian deaths though? "Over the past ten years, pedestrian deaths in the first half of the year skyrocketed from 2,141 in 2013 to 3,434 in 2022 – a 60% increase..." That said, pedestrian deaths f

I'm in Australia and older car formats like sedans and station wagons seem unfashionable now. SUVs and 4WDs seem much more common and are enough to present a risk to children and sightlines, IMO. There are some of the very large US-sty

Almost need to give them a flowchart or a list or more strongly link the sessions to an outcome (improving at something, working towards a line of work, etc). It would be great if 6-12 year olds were stronger at this also.

I haven't seen anyone paid to pump gas in my country for decades? Labour intensive services dealing with unpredictable environments or interfaces will be here for a while yet - cleaning, nursing and aged care, etc.
