Is that really incompatible with information being held in e-fields? It's just that these fields are generated by group of neurons, which can indeed be "stoped and started back"?

Excuse my candor but isn’t the status of Taiwan way more contentious than Ukraine? Honestly I’m not the sure the claim is illegitimate enough to stop China (at least that’s what I get after just reading Wikipedia), so while unfortunate for

Context is very important here. Saying that in NYC or Paris, sure that’s ridiculous. In Russia? That would not surprise me. Our ideals of society should not prevent us from seeing a current reality.

You are not wrong that it's a major point in the discussion, but even with that it can still be better than the alternatives for baseline production (the part that intermittent sources like solar and wind can't cover). Remember th

Forefront? It's nice but I'm glad I didn't wait 15-20 years for Nintendo to play SNES games officially.

That rhetoric makes me uneasy. Isn’t the US an enemy of China the choice of the US? My understanding is that until Trump overnight declaration of economic war and Biden continuing it China was maybe not an ally but a strong economic partner

The problem is programmers are relatively immature regarding business, and confuse hobby programming with professional programming. Lawyers might like reading laws, but they are hired for winning a case. Programmers will continue to need no

I remember clearly that for years XPS were recommended here as good alternative to MacBooks, I am not in that market but I feel for people being burned by these bad advices.

I understand the problem of ridiculously inflated titles (like “VP Alliance and Strategic Partnerships World…” for the first employee doing sales) but on the other hand I don’t really see an alternative for CEO and CTO, what would be more a

There is a deeper reason for slowing perception of the passage of time: mindfulness. When you travel or do a unique experience you usually are fully committed to living these experiences. Practicing mindfulness has worked great for me to ac

Dam failures have had orders of magnitude more impacts, are we calling hydro power a failure?

Sorry but no this is not what I call “very much”, nor “very well” as GP said. If you look at all the fossil bars (don’t forget the gas that would be too easy) it further prove my point that Germany really failed this decade and the trajecto

But there is nothing to MITM here, it’s a link to a file. Either you trust the person posting the link or not, but the host and the protocol are irrelevant in that case to evaluate if it’s safe or not, period. It’s not that people are chall

Social skills are a large set. Being introvert/shy and awkward in large gatherings doesn’t mean you can’t be a good friend. That stereotype of geeks all being “asocial assholes on the spectrum” belongs to the previous century, I don’t

But why would you want to find regular people? Personally I had a very social life with regular people in my 20's, and in retrospect it was very superficial, and these people have become boring and having issue now making sense of thei

I don't see how is HTTPS related to the safety of a file. The problem is not that you have your reasons, it's that they seem irrational/show a lack of technical understanding and this is HN so of course people will challenge

Nicely put. Crypto is the end-game of that ideology. It's easy to scapegoat, but the problem is deeper.

I really did not like that video. There are some interesting ideas but the tone is insufferable for me, not a fan of superficial punchlines and logical fallacies wrapped as deep thoughts, no matter if I agree or not with the point.

I don't think it's a separate trend, more of a consequence of the difference between native and web becoming blurry. Non-tech users see and use Facebook as they see and use Office: interfaces with data stored somewhere. They are f
