I was hoping for more legitimate discussion on something tangible, but the majority of this thread is righteous indignation. Which, no one is saying you can't feel that way, but generally on HN things have a bit more substance. Seems l

You mean hackernews, the site for people who make ridiculous incomes for working on menial digital products like social media? It's strange when people walk into a room and assume everyone else must think like them.

I don't approve of minimum wage, but I'm still not going to be surprised when people pay minimum wage.

Plenty of companies with the same owner contract with one another. It's extremely common. When they're in the same industry, we call it 'vertical integration'

Personally, my philosophy is that drugs should be viewed as tools. Now I don't recommend this to anyone else because there are a lot of negatives. Encouraging people to find their solutions in chemicals can be dangerous. For a non-triv

The best piece of advice I received was 'slow and steady wins the race'. It's something I heard a 1000 times before and 1000 times after, and it never meant that much to me. When I heard it, though, at just the right time and

India is right below replacement levels and China is well below. I find it interesting that Americans are currently consuming that many resources-- it would seem to me it's unsustainable if everyone can't do it.

Many people have noted his behavior seems very similar to someone in a manic episode. While this isn't bulletproof evidence and shouldn't be taken as such, I think it's worth something. There's definitely something off a

That's mostly hygiene. Bad hygiene is why cities are often associated with disease-- cities are often full of unhygienic practices that allow bacteria and virii to fester. They still didn't understand seizures, or cancer-- ie they

Yeah that seems like a strange choice. Why not just keep it in and let people figure out eventually that they just don't know how boats work?

We thought the future was gonna look like a movie, or something like The Jetsons. The future like actually much more mundane, and predictable. It's curved tv screens and smaller phones. That's kind of cool, but nothing special. I

Intermittent fasting can help. You can also try to go light on carbs and heavy on fat and protein. That after-meal tiredness is caused by a spike is blood sugar from digesting carbs

Yep. Making this environment fully interactive would be an entirely new task to accomplish. The game only allows you to stick to the script, which for CoD is appropriate. But developing a MMORPG like a Skyrim, where the environment is meant

What kind of receipts are there that people would believe? "This guy said he works for elon musk and he paid me $2000 to go on reddit and call people pedophiles, just look at this zelle email!" wouldn't go very far.
