Yes it does. Modern humans have so many more things to do than hunter gatherers or monkeys. Monkeys can't engage in cocaine fueled raves til 6am, work the night shift at a nuclear plant, or pull an all-nighter to pass…
This figure is useless without context. What was this number for previous generations? I suspect it's always super high because a huge demographic for mac's is college students buying their first laptop, obviously it's…
It's actually almost identical, if not worse.
Guaranteed 15%+ ROI. Really makes you wonder why more people aren't investing in solar
"The score, made up of audience ratings on a scale of 100, is calculated by taking the percentage of people who rated it at least 60 out of 100 (or 6 out 10) and multiplying it by 100%." The critics score is calculated…
"A very small minority of UX Researchers come to the correct conclusion, which is that most professional critics have to review every single movie" Could you provide your sources? This seems like it could be very…
Yeah, this was my impression as well. In Chicago you have police actively pulling people over all the time. In SF i have literally not seen a single person pulled over in the year I've been here. For context, in Chicago…
Ah yes, "one time in Arkansas" is now applicable to the situation at large. You'd think the HN crowd would be intelligent enough to not do this. This is akin to saying "this website doesn't load on the Nintendo DS web…
Not a bad way to go
Really surprised that a journalist like you doesn't understand the need for brevity. 98% of this "how to work with me" is actually "i like talking about myself". There is like half a sentence of semi-useful (probably…
Comes off as very silly and insecure. It seems like it's written purely for you to curate your professional persona and to give people a good impression of yourself. A corporate kool-aid drinking work-a-holics version…
Uhhh, what part of "customer-obsessed" implies anything positive to you? Drug dealers are also "customer-obsessed". Notice how Amazon is customer-obsessed and not "obsessed with providing a great, ethical, and…
When was the last time a sovereign, democratic, western nation invaded?
You realize there was also a massive coordinated effort by the media to defeat Nazi Germany, right? I know it's rare nowadays, but sometimes, gasp, large groups of people across organizations and industries can…

Samsung phones are laggy day one though, and the UI makes your eyes bleed from disgust.
This is by design. Paper straws are meant to distract your limited focus from things that actually matter.
Not him, but I miss when search results weren't clogged up with 80 copies of the same piece of shit from the same Chinese factory branded as 80 different items, and rampantly astroturfed reviews. The website used to…
Most will have a medical prosecute to remove it
Why are people concerned about energy and material costs? Semiconductors are probably the highest margin manufactured goods on the planet, with materials and energy being the lowest cost input to the process. The only…
I mean as a swiss person, your biggest industry (watches) exists almost entirely out of "it looks cool". Rich Militaries buy the F-35 because it's a cool toy, in the same way a rich businessman buys a Patel Phillipe.…
This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. It makes sense for something that you personally own and maintain yourself i.e. a Cesna. Do you expect Air Force 1 pilots to do walk around? Astronauts? Submarines? These are…
