I don’t understand why anyone on HN cares what the editorial page of the WSJ has to say about, well, anything. It’s a largely partisan and stubbornly fact-free source of poorly considered right-wing ideology. This whole…
Tools like this always make me faintly uncomfortable. The idea is nice, but as a systems guy I would liken it to a mechanic’s toolbox that tries to predict what tool you want and puts it in your hand. Seems like it…
This isn’t a helpful or constructive comment. It would be better suited for a Twitter slap fight thread.
Counter-argument: A positively staggering amount of decisionmaking at a company consists of "look at what other, successful companies are doing and mimic them". It's cargo cult management by the very definition: they…
I guess in 2021, HNers think the NY Post is a legitimate media outlet straining for objectivity, rather than the tabloid rag that they are. And I guess we'll all have a highly partisan discussion over it despite the…
Now I wonder if there’s a business opportunity here with how insanely stupid laundry prices are at hotels, a laundry service specifically for travelers. Pickup and drop off of the items at a hotel, price by weight…
I eagerly await the HN comments about how this demonstrates that mass tea sit is a failure and cars are our future. Except I know we’ll only ever see complaints about “overloaded transportation systems” when referring…
Google, and a few other major tech companies, have turned diversity into a religion. It’s insane. We spend more time talking about it than anything technical or organizational. There is no dialogue about it either, just…
Spoken by someone with no experience with things like ISO and SOC2 certification. Go ahead and try to explain to your auditors this year how all your internal controls around privilege escalation and separation of…
Those movies came out around 30 years ago. The first one came out while Reagan was president. We don’t really make mainstream movies like that anymore.
Yes, yes it is. I’m astounded your conflate broadcaster cable TV ads with the stuff we see on, say, YouTube. They seem very different to me
You appear to lack any authority or knowledge here because almost every part of your comment is completely wrong.
It’s insanely powerful only for its size and energy usage. There are so many cut corners and micro-lies when it comes to mobile that make all the specs sound good but at the end of the day they are far, far more…
Okay, fine: "Why is a kernel module writing to my BIOS"?
Whenever I run into an argument for something society-wide like this I do a little though experiment: Imagine the world as the argument suggests - in this case that public transportation is the norm. Now imagine I came…
Citation needed. That’s a lot of very specific numbers.
LOL indeed. Your (poor) argument could be used to justify televisions running in the classroom 24x7 too, just to shake loose that awful "frontal instruction".
This honestly sounds like snake oil. It’s even got all the requisite buzzwords.
They have. The fact that it didn’t work should inform you about how politics works today
My counter argument is I’ve tried to take this advice multiple times in my life and each time came to the (re)conclusion that I will never be able to think of it as anything but lying and manufactured conflict. Some of…
Let's all sit and reflect for a moment that Apple was the first (and for a long time, the only) company that used to get sleep/wake "right".
For me the biggest PITA lately with Go is dealing with json. Exhaustively listing every potential field in order to type it is maddening.
And people say this is necessary when we built thousands of starter homes in decades past and somehow developers still made scads of cash.
Your anecdotal evidence beats out a professor, sure.
This is exactly the correct reply.
