First of all, an all-out free market at the start of the industrial revolution is when we started seeing horrific child labor become the norm. It only quelled (or flowed to less fortunate regions) once there were legal measures put in place

People also seem to conveniently forget that being overweight is a problem. Also, intermittent fasting has none of the downsides you've mentioned.

Go give $75mm to your local hospital. I'm sure they're willing to do the same.

If you don't get the whole Twitch/YouTube live streaming concept, then sure, but don't mistakenly think that Ice Poseidon is what's mainstream and "it." This is essentially social media 2.0 for 4channer.

No buses for me. I've given it a try many times but in SF, unless you're on a popular commuting line, it's filled with crazy, aggressive homeless people. I've given up traveling via bike after losing my wheels to theft.

Even in CS I'm always amazed that an "easy" algorithm problem we expect a new grad to solve was solved in the 70s by CS professors who published papers about the topic.

What if they were free to manually ride but used like 20% of the energy or so to charge the battery until it was full? Would something like that be feasible?

To be fair, it seems like your organization's solution was to make it very difficult to do so, which is kind of a non-solution (aside from trnctng chars, which is a practice even a small ad tech startup that I was at did). Admittedly i

That sounds amazingly complex and cool at the same time. Have you looked into sous vide machines or pressure cookers? Those two are the items I use the most to get precisely cooked meals done in batches. I've found that a lot of meals

I think the parent commenter is just saying that it's not something you can actually believe, just like a company saying they'll never sell your data. Sure, that's the intention but when someone comes around waving a checkboo

Sure it does. If the costs of these datacenter operations were extremely high (say, by a factor of 100), you bet we'd have lower bitrate for Youtube, fewer GB allowances on Office 365, Dropbox, Gmail, etc. Conversely, if it became lite

Well you're making it sound as if the data centers being cooled somehow wouldn't happen otherwise. Seeing as how the alternative is to cool using A/C, surely it's the case of causing less harm than the alternative? Of co

That totally depends on your setup. But in my case, I keep a container of 90% isopropyl alcohol on my desk to wipe away my keyboard, mouse, laptop surface, desk, etc. regularly. It certainly seems easier than having some service take it awa

Really? This certainly can't be a limitation in the language, correct? I find it hard to believe that Google doesn't have accessibility support for one of their websites written in their own language.

But if they want public infra to be well funded, then they have to pay their taxes. For the older houseowners, they're paying a fraction of the taxes they should be paying. They can't have their cake and eat it too!

I'd imagine at the scale Wikipedia is operating, they'd have to be sensitive about accessibility features. Some might find it hard to keep the pointer at a compete stop and the 500ms timer seems to do the job pretty well.

I'm not a CPA either but considering it income on the day of the fork is assured not a burden on you. That means you have tax obligations on all potential future forks, regardless of whether you know it or do anything with that informa

That sounds like selection bias to me. If you're infertile and uneducated/low earning, then you're not going to be pursuing any IVF options.

Google was a proponent of whitespace before it even was a thing. Remember how empty it looked compared to ask.com or yahoo.com? IMO the white space gives a bit of a breathing room without compromising too much. I also like the emphasis on t

I'm a week late, but I don't mean the ticket price itself. The previous commenter was talking about how nesting flights allow you to avoid various fees (i.e. FAA, 9/11 security fees) but afaik they're fixed.
