And I am also 75j. My 75j account is getting a 'You're submitting too fast' message, so I'm doing all this on Tor. If you can't see the message from '75j__throwaway' that I posted initially to explain this, change your…
It's not a fad for me. I didn't use a phone much in the US and I've never owned a smart phone. I only associate with people in my neighborhood and people online, so I really have no need.
In Cambodia, and yes, while my lifestyle seems minimalistic to me and to most expats here, I still live on about 3-4x what an average Cambodian does. It's also been easier because I live in a bustling local neighborhood…
I agree about the pitfalls of a work-obsessed culture, but your tangential speculation about meat, women, and causes of suicide in Japan seem comically simplistic and honestly prejudiced.
I am not really a minimalist intentionally, but I'd guess that at least by amount spent I rank near the very bottom of HN posters. Over the last 3 years I have averaged about $300-400 USD per month, which includes rent…
Why are this comment and the parent comment downvoted? As someone who doesn't know about string theory it's hard to tell.
I also noticed that and came to HN looking for comments. Interestingly, here in Cambodia there are so many Lexus SUVs you wouldn't believe it. Phnom Penh has surprisingly expensive cars all over (usually I see a few…
I agree with you, but just to be clear, Portugal decriminalized all drugs.
What about their "grubby hands"? Was that referring to their bathing habits?
I had the same question a few months ago. Unfortunately working from Asia wasn't an option, but I'd still suggest reaching out since the Khan Academy folks are very helpful and encouraged me to interview if I was ever…
Who is Klein? Do you mean Jill Stein? And I don't see what you mean by #BernieOrBust being intellectually dishonest, can you explain? There is so little substantive difference between Trump and Clinton, that I…
It does qualify for me as ASCII art, since I often see the term used loosely to encompass any art made from typographic characters. I am a huge fan of these two experimental pieces from 'ASCII' artist Raquel Meyers and…
It would be nice for me to get individual master tracks for sampling purposes. I would pay for access too, but I've never even seen that as an option.

Writing web crawlers and astroturfing to get all that data is hard. Facebook would more likely just buy that data straight from the source, since most other tech companies are similarly unscrupulous and happy to sell.
