I vaguely remember an index for the number of earthmoving machines per capita for a given country. It was a really good indicator for productivity. It doesn't seem like industrial robots have the same level of…
I guess at some point we should expect a Sony SpaceStation.
In e-commerce I've noticed that customers that request to be removed from the mailinglist and/or to have their info/account be deleted often forget about ever using the site. Then a few months later they order something…
You can mitigate planned obsolescense with recurrent billing, like monthly fees.
I would love to use this for pairing a product with the correct image by decoding barcodes in the image.
The contention that mice are the most intelligent beings on the planet seems more plausible every year.
Sites could provide a cookies-manifest.json with the entities they provide data to. Then the browser could show a standardized cookie banner, if needed. The user could also disable the cookie banner completely, if they…
Governments and central banks are doing it to try to continue the cash economy, which has been slowly dying for some time now (a death recently sped up by the pandemic). Cash has some unique benefits over numbers in an…
Hello cm2187 what's happening. I'm gonna need you to go ahead and not recommend movies while at work. So if you could go ahead and get back to it.. that'd be great.
The current system just keeps track of inventory. Like when a warehouse inventory system says "15 Honda Civics currently in stock" it doesn't mean digital cars. A digital currency system would make a digital…
This is usually what's missing from people criticizing Curtis. It's a form of superficiality where people feel that they don't need to look further into the subjects before drawing fundamental conclusions. I've spoken…
I have YouTube premium too. Even though I probably watch more Twitch streams than YouTube, I still wouldn't consider paying for the Twitch equivalent because YouTube has so many useful videos (tutorials, lectures,…

Unboxing comes to mind. It seems manufacturers are putting an astounding amount of effort into making the ritual of opening the packaging for your new gadget a long series of satisfying unfolds, slides and surprises.
This made me curious about how a business can defend itself if a competitor hires people to leave negative reviews.
I tested the phrase "go to kyle's channel on twitch" and it actually went to twitch.tv/kyle - which I found impressive.
I feel like the Chinese style social score system won't have enough support in government for most countries, but we'll receive a decentralized version anyway through corporate overreach. Also, it's always amusing to…

The software would have to make a claim. For example, improve your posture.
On the subject of placebo technology. How well do HN think placebo software would work? An example would be a productivity app that only has a flip switch for High or Low productivity. Whenever you need to be extra…
That's a bit extreme, but maybe a moderator level account that could moderate tweets and accounts.
There are quite a lot of trading bots that base their trades off high impact twitter accounts. I wonder how they would've reacted to this.
Sorry for the slow response. A few days have gone by, but your reply still demands a response I feel. I was vague about helping others on purpose because experience has made me wary of claiming that I know what's good…
For the first seven years of my schooling, I had the privilege of going to classes with only 8 pupils per teacher. During this time I felt like I had a personal relationship with each of the teachers, and that my…
I think that my purpose as a human is to work for my species both by helping others do their thing, and by giving it flavour by adding my own individual expression to the mix. This article seems to be a guide on how to…
