The toilets in Japan that have noise-making as a feature do flowing water (or urinating I guess) sounds. Still, if you believed the sound, it might be startling when you wondered how long before the person next to you dehydrated to death fr

Is there a nation-state actor who would have cause to put forth these resources to disturb the Bangladeshi central bank?

This probably depends on who you are. Like all organizations in higher learning, the boot camps serve two functions. The first, and what we'd probably like to think is the most important, is the value-adding function of education. The

Savannah, GA has no 'open container' law, and it's pretty nice. But yeah, what a dumb thing to do in the spirit of blind following.

Actually, there still is a town newspaper! I used to read it through every morning, which took very little time considering its size. I feel that this guy covers local politics much better than the local paper ever did. He also shares some

Parent might be saying the media supports this fallacy by the amount of coverage given. With the huge number of resources available online for information, I would suggest that the perception of media as only covering presidential elections

Thank you for the thorough reply. I'll play with it some this weekend.

From reading the end of the story, it is clear that they did not have reasonable suspicion. They had a responsive seller on Craigslist who was selling the same computer as the supposed buyer had lost. Do you believe owning the same model co

On the other hand, the random jury doesn't have the same perverse incentives and web of relationships that support conviction.

I've been contemplating for a few weeks now rooting my phone. My justification for this plan is the convenience and added security of system-wide ad block. But I always wonder if I should be more concerned with the new vulnerabilities

The juxtaposition of this possible use of data by Apple (as an investor) with Chinese state-sponsored large-scale theft of technical data by security breach is wonderful.

Based on my understanding of LOAC, it seems like you'd need quite a few decently competent people who are necessarily uniformed for when it comes time to run operations at the ROC. And from spending time in internships at some contract

I hadn't ever experienced Facebook as anything I felt control over until a few weeks back, when I started ruthlessly pruning stories from people who are serial clickbait sharers. Then I found a few pages (seal watching photos, small to

Can you support this claim? I don't dispute the fact that the interest rates are astronomical, but I am skeptical about how the profitability pans out once you deal with the enormous risk of the borrowing group. I imagine most of the u

For anyone who favors free trade as a standard reaction, but who gets an uneasy feeling, this interview had some pretty good arguments about why China is different. I can't say I've figured out what to think on the issue, but it&#

As a small thing, the site returns a server error if you enter >=$1350. It may be that there are very few people searching in that range, and you're not really worried about it. If it were me, I'd link to your most expensive bu

Last time I flew (SFO), it took me 25 minutes to get from my car at the South SF Bart station to beyond security. I still hate the TSA, but I've never had the delays that people talk about as commonplace.

*People will be glad they spent money to more quickly pass the weird people booing from the normal line. Doesn't TSA pre cost $80 for 5 years? That's gotta be worth it if you fly even once per year.

It seems to me that current HN is understood as a juxtaposition to Reddit, both in post quality and commenting civility. At least, that's what I try to support with my commenting and voting.

Beans really stand out from rice and tortillas in terms of nutrition. They have much higher protein content, and I believe they have some other good stuff going for them besides macro nutrients.

Yeah, from the perspective of them getting easy access to the taxes I've paid, I definitely agree that they got a bailout. Maybe I should have said that they were 1st place in the field of losers that was the American auto industry. An

The fact that Ford didn't need the bailouts that GM and Chrysler got (though I'm aware they still had the line line of credit available) suggests that their leadership is at least strong within the American car making industry, fo

As a counterpoint, if parent is interested in taking ML further, a solid foundation in linear algebra will be huge when more advanced signal processing applications come up.
