Amazon is equally repulsive.

No, the air quality wasn't the "worst ever" (not here at least) for several weeks- That is not the truth. In any case I've tried to answer your questions the best that I can and I am not inclined to care why you are on p

AI can make anyone appear to be a professional dancer. There is a difference between what is real and what is fake.

I was thinking about that part of my comment and I believe what I failed to convey was that there seems to be no real cultural or educational priority to question what you see communicated on the internet, at least to my limited understandi

Not using google is actually a piece of cake. Ther are reasonable competitors for nearly all of their services, except maybe translate and maps. Though I have been looking at OSM a lot lately. I, personally, use an DuckDuckGo, an iPhone and

There is a great flattening in what it once took to publish a thought or an idea and have it reach an audience. Unfortunately almost everybody is deluded, insane, stupid, at the very least totally uninsightful - or some sort of weird combin

There are a variety of factors that contribute to these wildfires aside from climate change. These are factors that could change over months, years, and decades and absolutely remain to be seen. You're framing it as if we're livin

The smoke has been going on for 2, arguably 3 years. That isn't enough data to conclude that it will be a persistent issue, let alone that it will continually get worse. Even if we consider that global warming is an issue, cooler and w

My intention was never to put words into your mouth but help you understand why I or someone else might read your comment as funny or backwards (since you asked). It seems that is impossible to do so I give up!

If I have to somehow manipulate an organic system to create feces in a way that an engineered system expects in order for the engineered system to work properly, then the engineered system expecting the feces doesn't appear to be desig

I see the same thing, and empathize totally...but still, what HR person would see this and think "yeah, let's reach out to this person for a job"

Right! The web has really started to flatten everything...some of it seems good, but the things we've lost really suck.

I don't use keybase, I just want you to know that I'm not downvoting you...as I see that you have been.

The same way the gp expressed it, that the robot was bad at dealing with the cats excretions. Do you not see the cold irony in expecting the cat to poop in a way the robot can handle?

by tjr225 8y ago
Is this facetious Even if it's not, this > I wonder if there's something about your cats' diet that renders their excretions too incompatible with what the robots are designed for. Is strangely funny and backwards, in my o

We have lost a lot in no longer looking to our friends, or trusted people for content we might like.

I'm not following you? Is the point of your post that liberals can hold bad views(which I agree with) or is your point that you might be criticized? If it's the latter then I think that in fact you have proved my point - that hold

The fact that you're being downvoted indicates just how troubled and just how racist our society still is. Good luck all. Either hackernews has been infiltrated by a slew of far right wing posters or the general public has become so du

I find the lime e-bikes to be an AMAZING service and I really hope it takes off. It's my wife and I's preferred way of getting around for date night.

I moved to Seattle from the midwest...the crying for A/C during 90 degree days with 0 humidity are laughable.

Last year, for some reason, I was so emotionally invested in an interview at Amazon I was researching their leadership principles and such like some sort of bootlicking rube. I'm very glad I didn't get that job. Whatever Jeff Bezo

As an outsider with little interest in ever attending burning man, it appears to me to be little else other than a social media spectacle, these days (but perhaps that's everything).

We should not be putting economics on a higher pedestal than doing the right thing. Your brother is entitled to the same rights that you are.

This hits really close for me. I am a Seattle IT guy and looking at houses back near family in Michigan. Sure, houses are 2-4x more expensive here...but I will most certainly make 1/2 as much in the areas in Michigan that I would like

There are restaurants across the globe that people wait for over an hour to eat at because the food is simply that good.

Eh, unless they're shitting on my plate I feel no need to be critical of service at all. Also, it's nice to eat out simply because it's away from your home.

If money is the only measure of usefulness, sure. Don't you think that's a bit stupid though?

On the contrary! These sort of absurd reductions of logic from people with no business pretending to be experts(e.g. comparing a veggie burger to smoking or blood letting) appear to be very much par for the course here.
