> Same as running inside to grab the camcorder, no? I agree with this, plenty of us are old enough to remember our parents lugging a huge video camera around at family events. If the videos are compellingly better, this is a use case.

The NHL’s overtime is pretty efficient though. There’s a short commercial break, then 5 minutes of 3-3 which is exciting and has a high probability of goals. Then a well paced shootout if it is still tied. So perhaps broadcasters are ok wit

On the contrary, the clock management makes American football games more exciting, because you know if your team can just get one first down you will win. The tension heightens because you see the finish line. But it does lead to unsatisfyi

I 100% agree, any time someone reminisces about the past, take what they say about new music with a grain of salt! But like you said, a lot of innovation is driven online (but absolutely penetrates popular culture), not by local DJs, which

I ran into a similar problem in a Fortran code, where a huge array was being assigned a bunch of literals one by one. The optimizing compiler slowed down substantially (though not to this extent), who knows what it hoped to find…

I feel like every live streaming event always makes me feel like I’m stuck in a work zoom meeting. There’s just something about the ambiance. Technical glitches aside, I feel like spaces wasn’t the right venue for this, it’s like a meeting

How much does this really matter? I feel like Tesla is strong in the market because they figured out how to market an EV as a sports car. Toyota was never going to do that.

I also think the problem is that if you’re losing weight, you’re by definition not eating healthy. If you could skip to the fat gone step, and work on a diet that maintains a healthy weight, it seems like you would have a easier time adjust

It seems like this is just a temporary issue, I imagine within a year a company like Apple can get company wide access to ChatGPT with suitable privacy provisions in place. For a hefty price of course.

It’s definitely an interesting discussion. > who doesn't want to know who will an upcoming election? In particular, politicians want to know. This to me is the interesting upshot. Polls are non binding, so the public could use them

I think Nate Silver must be some kind of punching bag in right wing media circles, because some variation of this comment is posted basically every time 538 comes up on HackerNews.

What’s the deal with piracy and hoarding? I also knew big torrent users who were constantly filling disk after disk. How many of those copies did you actually watch? Maybe it was all for the thrill of the crime!

I hate seeing this on hacker news because there is the implication “it’s international news, so something must have happened”. I think the local alert probably has a more limited geographic scope than before, there’s been a lot of push back
