Aphantasia?
I feel pretty confident that I have a deep understanding of what they are and how they can be used. And to me, they are pure garbage. Regarding use, they definitely fit my uses, though I would never use one. I was very…
Anyone interested in Einstein's ontological and epistemological beliefs should read Arthur Fine's excellent "The Shaky Game - Einstein, Realism, and the Quantum Theory". One of the most rewarding books I have ever read.
Yes, but I think Peter's point is that they moved because their demographic decline means they have less and less chance of achieving the main goal - securing the eight access points along the Russian border. Ukraine is…
Hello again! I have tried to send you an email, but it says your address does not exist. I would very much like to connect! Is the address correct, and I have made an error? Perhaps it's .net? Thank you!
We need to connect - we are of the same mind. How do we do that? I have composed a 'book' on the topic and would love your thoughts.
Agreed, and I think you've put your finger on the thing that no one is talking about. Further, the complexity of creation with a complete lack of creativity is... really creepy to me, and does the opposite of inspire.
Great read. What conclusions should we draw? What should we do, if "money is no longer money"? It seems like most normal people operate as though money... is money. What should change in the way most normal people do…
When I see sites like this, I want to give them money and support them, whether the content is worth it or not. This made my day.
My repair guy came by last week to fix my Maytag dishwasher. He noted it was ready to be replaced. We are heavy users. This guy has been in his job for over 30 years. He uses a flip-phone, and has encouraged me to do my…
Are you sure that "cheers" and "tschuss" are etymologically related? I would love that. Everything I could find points to a Latin cognate, "cara".
This is dangerous. My friend blew out his knee pushing too hard with trailrunning, and now he can never run again.
Anyone else just read content in source?
Entire regions that are 'the exception', shouldn't exist?
"So dissolved identity > Panic attacks when choice-satisfaction plummets > subconscious suggests all kinds of cartoonist extremes for an easy and powerful identity > Conscious mind agrees to play along, uses this…
Does anyone know a technical term for this? Like describing the Milky Way from within it...
High-five, having forever used some permutation of something like naaah@nope.net, etc.
Please keep this kind of stuff off Hacker News - this isn't Reddit. One of the main benefits of this site is that one doesn't have to waste time pushing through reams of clever references.
As someone who grew up on the older episodes, and who only dabbled in the newer ones, this headline really threw me for a loop. I was struggling to remember some kind of Star Trek like communicator or somesuch, and…
>>Does anybody else feel that way? Have you been able to detach yourself from the constant flow of information and focus on your own stuff? Yes, and to detach, I enforce little lifestyle changes. It's a species of…
I agree with the sentiment of the article, and am "in that camp" on security. Consequently, I have recently wondered at some inverse, SciFi scenarios, for fun -- scenarios in which the content is intentionally made…
I implemented one for my company in 2006, and it worked much better than the Slack they use now, imho.
Oh dear lord, I was being sarcastic and meta! Can we unflag the parent? It was a legit statement, I thought.
Interesting article that leaves me wanting to read the two missing essays. My head tilted at the statement, "His writings... were considered masterpieces when they appeared in the 18th century." Hume remembers it…
That reminds me of the moment that I realized that I have been a chatbot for a really long time.
