Is iron oxide really that much more volumous than iron? In terms of capturing the iron oxide, why couldn’t this be run in a sealed container with a valve that allows oxygen in? This doesn’t work for hydrocarbons because the volume of CO2 is

Schools should teach their students relevant skills. If the industry wants Figma, schools would be doing a disservice to students by not teaching it to them.

I’ve actually thought it was weird Google was allowed to advertise competitors for keyword searches. Like how is Google not leveraging GitHub’s brand to sell ads to competitors in this case?

I have a two year old. She hasn’t used phones or tablets yet. We don’t even let her watch TV. The most she’s done is use our phones to play Spotify. Overall, it seems to be working really well. She’s super curious, and she loves to read and

They simply don't care about the website anymore, it's as simple as that. Really basic bugs never get fixed. The video player was never fixed. A lot of the perf issues are React rendering issues. If someone cared, they could hook

That's very interesting about bicycles. I always thought the reason why bikes self-right was because of the conservation of angular momentum.

I think you should provide your age as a reference. As smartphones have proliferated, companies have gotten better at making their products more addictive. So even if you had unfettered smartphone access at 13, you probably weren't wat

Public schools aren't a monopoly. People are free to move if they would like to switch schools. Also, a major difference is that residents usually have some power over the school board, e.g. by directly electing them or electing a mayo

I don’t think a few years makes that big of a difference. What if the email says “We can crush Playstation by buying Activision after their next gen console comes out”? That seems like it would be pretty damning.

I’m not offering an explanation for the behavior, just an observation. “It’s strange that some people are psychotics” isn’t really that controversial of a statement.

There’s something strange about hanging on to books that will never be read; another example of the human proclivity for hoarding.

I didn’t downvote him, but I think it’s a bit dismissive of the original point and kind of falls prey to the no true Scotsman fallacy. antonvs’ point can be summarized as essentially “even though you have firsthand experience running compan

They’re pretty good, but their low heat performance leaves a lot to be desired. Rather than provide a consistent level of low heat, they tend to turn off and on. That’s not what I want. But overall they are decent. Cleaning the glass is ann

Yea I was just thinking the other day how I haven’t actually smelled gas in a long time. I used to love the smell as a kid, but I’m happy it doesn’t seem like my children will get the same exposure.

You might be surprised to find that the first amendment isn’t blanket protection for lying. You can’t, for instance, lie to the government. You also can’t lie to cover up a crime. You also can’t lie to defraud others. In addition to crimina

The issue I have with the argument is that you can apply it to anything. The fact that Bernie Madoff pulled off a ponzi scheme for years and the fact that "The Lindy effect works until it doesn't" isn't a specific critiq

One of Germany’s main exports is automobiles. The plan probably isn’t to become Taiwan 2.0. Rather, Germany may be looking to shore up its auto supply chain to avoid the issues exposed during the chip shortage.

Whether or not someone can use their time to not be fat, not be ugly, etc. is irrelevant. The could have done those same things in their early 20s and been less fat and less ugly. My point is that as you age, without kids, most peoples’ opt

To me, there is more to having children than breeding. Having children is something that, generally, ages well. You see your children grow, become adults, start their careers, start their own families, etc. You find new satisfaction and joy
