Another fun one— next time a public figure dies, especially a slightly more obscure one, just google them/their death. Whole first page is just poorly written fiverr style articles, all by people for whom English is clearly a second la

Since apparently it's not connected to credit score, what stops you from just not paying it? If small claims court is genuinely their only recourse, that sounds like something I might try my odds in, especially if I have a compelling c

Okay thanks for confirming, that's about what I was remembering, but it was such a big different I was unsure. The car really puts it in perspective

I get what they're getting at here, but isn't cycling still wildly more efficient than walking/running? Maybe they haven't changed because they are already reasonably optimal.

I'm into scale military models, not railroads, but it's the same thing at heart. The "rockstar modeler" phenomenon they're talking about here is amusing and very real, because if you're not into it you might no

They should have started out more vaguely— I started reading it from the second page, and without Notgnihsaw I didn't have a clue. > A few women afflicted with almost inhuman hypermammary development are so idolized that they make a

This is my default answer. What else would you use? C# is the only realistic alternative in my opinion, and I could respect that choice. I work in Go currently and although I see the positives, I'd be less inclined to unleash a bunch o

Glad to hear you found that helpful and wanted to try it out! I'll have to go ahead and sign up so I can take a closer look.

This is pretty neat actually. A little constructive input: Seeing more of the people who you can potentially book calls with might make people more willing to sign up. I'm interested, but with only 3 examples it leaves me in the "

You can't just tease us like this! If not the actual chemical... maybe an analogue or something? Chemistry is one of my great fascinations lol.

I legitimately would have thought this was satire if I hadn't perused the comments first. The core message I took away was like an old Hunter S. Thompson quote: If you've never crossed the line, you don't really know where th

The real answer is that its copywriting, which means grammar is nearly irrelevant. He starts with "Hey I'm Chris Sev" because it's a better headline, which is defined as something that is more likely to make people read

I don't know either, but I can confirm that's within the scale for a domain I sold in the last year. Got 6.5k and it wasn't even a .com

Did this comment just remind you to update the readme? All 7 years old, and then 35 minutes ago, I love it lol. Very cool though

Really trying to keep this in mind lately. The code is the easy part.

I absolutely understand where you're coming from here, but in practice and reality, the point of the title really is to make sure people click the article.

Yes it feels a bit reductionist... "Love is merely a series of chemical reactions, therefore I should be able to compute text that elicits these reactions in a person and makes them fall in love with me."

It's a reference to a famous surrealist painting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Treachery_of_Images My artist girlfriend shared this with me once, and I'm happy to be able to pay it forward. haha

Professional copywriter + media buyer here. (also a software engineer) The Tldr; here is that your budget is too low to do anything meaningful on FB. In the simplest terms, FB traffic is mostly garbage unless you're optimizing for purc

My knowledge of the Yakuza is limited to a single ~1-hour interview with a former member... But that said, hearing it from the source has made me inclined to believe the more charitable interpretation. I found the interview for anyone who i

There's nothing like deciphering someone's tone through slack right after you did something stupid! Ahh good, I just opened a PR with print statements... they definitely don't think I'm an idiot now...

This actually happened at my first software job. We were expanding fast by hiring bunches of contractors, which was already giving pretty polar results. After a while, my team got one too. They didn't have a computer ready for him yet,

It's funny, if you look in my comment history, I just made the same observation the other day. Anecdata, and all that, but it's interesting that so many people are noticing this.

This is a key part of it that I left out actually, the egregious nature of it. Interesting to hear you say this too.

by tetsusaiga 5y ago
Ahh, that's a very good observation. I'm surprised that wasn't my first thought as well.

That's true as well. Every competitor is making due with the set of circumstances they were given, so why should COVID be a unique circumstance? It's just another tactical decision, to do the run at that time. Either way, I'm
