How kind of you to say.... If you do much research on the topic, you will find that this is the standard advice. It is almost impossible to remove (especially for any porous surface). People with CIRS can by symptomatic even from dead mold

If you think you have long Covid, you should do some research about CIRS (Chronic Inflammation Response Syndrome). It is a condition caused by exposure to toxic mold from water damaged (inside or out) buildings. There is growing evidence th

At my company, non technical Managers (including marketing folks) are posting Claude and ChatGPT responses in bug tickets with the "fix" for the bug. No explanation of what the expected vs actual behavior is, just AI slop telling

I feel the same but the question I struggle most with is this: "Does it matter when the people who are going to come along and maintain this are just going to use AI to fix or adjust this maintenance nightmare?"

I think it is hard to call IG and WA bets. He simply bought the competition that was set to wreck his platform.

This just another example of Sinclair's Law.

We are living in a board game and card game Renaissance. For those outside of "the hobby", there are thousands of new titles being released every year. Some challenge the notion of what it even means to be a game. Even in the part

Maybe I missed it but if I don't solve in time, it didn't show me the correct answers.

It isn't just the EU. Anytime $1M in lobbying will buy you $1B in contracts or regulatory capture, it will always be a no brainer. We need better transparency about the money trail and full disclosure before things go to vote so the pu

Most Amish under 30 have secret cell phones. It would only be the oldest generations without them. There are even lots of wink & nod arrangements where they may even have electricity in some outbuilding but they unplug it when elder com

The best hiring advice is this: Take half of the resumes you receive and just throw them in the trash. You don't want to hire unlucky people!

No offense, but that is meaningless. 60% support abortion but he we are with no Roe. 70% support gay marriage but the small percentage in charge want to outlaw it. It takes more than polling to become legislation. Weird indeed.

I think politically it is an easier sell than medicare for all or government only healthcare.

Yeah, what I'm suggesting is that your premiums are funded through your HSA, not just your deductible and medicines. Obviously, the max HSA funding amounts would have to change.

I worked in healthcare start-ups for many years and the main problem is mis-aligned incentives. The #1 thing we need to do is make it illegal for your healthcare to be tied to your employment. We can still have your employer provide a X% or

Don't count all those chickens before they hatch. There might be more started but do they all survive? Think back to the dot-com boom/crash for an example of where that initial gold rush didn't just magically ramp forever. Th

Mostly easier in the sense that it is always in your hand already, not at home on the charger on your desk.

Space/land; you have to displace and buy the four corner properties ( at least ) to put one in.

It is almost as if this was a planned wealth transfer that was immensely succesful.

It is mostly a combination of Sinclair's Law and "I have nothing to hide" mindset.

I design games and have been working on a Red Riichi variant where one of each number is red and this drives scoring instead of all the myriad of Yaku. All the Yaku are hard for beginners to onboard and a lot of hands have to good path to a

I read the article and would argue that it is really just two things they did. However, both things are really the same coin and are about solving poverty and almost nothing to do with education. Both are small (but positive) band aids on g

Serious question: but aren't there thousands of other guys doing almost the same thing and getting almost no views? Even if there are lots of new channels, there aren't going to be lots of winners

This one is a lot harder to tell because there are some AI bros who claim similar things but are completely serious. Even look at Show HN now: There used to be ~20-40 posts per day but now there are 20 per HOUR . (Please oh please can we h

As the sibling said, papers used to make money via ads and classifieds. NYTimes pivoted to games. This gives people a reason to go to NYT every day and gives them upsell opportunities to full subscriptions. WaPo and others don't have t

Correct, and this is meant to attract the same investors and Bulls that already think Mars colonies is a solved problem, just need a few more years to run some tests. As with all, it is only about making himself richer.

If nothing else, an update to the pbxproj file format would be life changing. Most of my time fighting git is dealing with project file merges.

Serious question: If you are so sure that this is a big payday, have you put all your net worth into SpaceX? Seems like a no brainer if you fully believe it. The reason for this "data centers in space" is the same as the "sus
