Fair point, I've edited the comment to clean it up.
Condescension? This article is all kinds of horrifying. ... "We are just going through the motions cuz we gotta. Kind of like plunging the toilet."? Maybe you should go read a book like "Lovers in marriage" before you…
Complaining about your spouse to your friends is a wonderful way to damage your relationship; the unthinking assumption that you should be venting about your spouse is harmful and should be challenged. Just on this…
(edited for tone) In many perfectly healthy, normal marriages, there's a disparity (sometimes significant) in sexual interest/appetite between the spouses that has absolutely nothing to do with their love for each other…
Hey, if it works for you, it works for you. That said, I'm curious to hear what kinds of things you're referring to. Do you have some fictional examples? My wife and I each have our own best friends, but in my own…
I think the word "goal" is too strong, here, but it is a valid point. People change, and in a good marriage, the spouses should absolutely push each other to change in ways that are healthy and positive. It's simply…
I'm not sure where I came across this concept, but I've heard the use of a terminal described as entering into an interactive conversation with the computer. That is, where users of a point-and-click interface might…
So what are the benefits over Tor?
How so? If it's under individual control, you'll just end up with sub-networks where people will agree to distribute that type of content. You cannot pair anonymity and security with censorship. They are fundamentally…
How is this different from Freenet or Tor?
Which is, of course, extremely misleading because income tax is hardly the only tax people pay...
and they're motivated by money/views/prestige instead of destabilization to fulfill geopolitical goals. Exactly the point. Look, there's this thing in western jurisprudence called "mens rea". It's what differentiates,…
ROFL, wow, talk about cherry-picking to make a case... The fact is the US offers the least PTO of any developed nation. Same goes with sick leave and mat/pat leave. And free lunch? Free bus passes? Stock and option…
The taxi drivers would get paid more due to having monopolies in most cities and fares would be outrageous. Uhh... Uber is, like, 5-6 years old in most locales, less in many. This isn't some alternative universe we have…
I don't understand the question. It's not like a ketogenic diet results in a lack of blood glucose... which is good, because if it did, it would kill you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis
Your reading is simplistic. This is talking about blood glucose levels, which is influenced by many factors, including glucose production in the liver.
I don't know why so many people think this is the case and then hate on the product. Because that's how it's positioned in the market? Like, literally what they claim it's for, and supposedly the reason they went into…
I'm Canadian and drink Soylent regularly, maybe like 2-4 times per month. Random aside: Once every week or two is considered "regular" consumption to you? Isn't this product supposed to be the end-all and be-all of meal…
This is almost certainly about false claims/marketing based on usage of regulated industry terms. Simply removing the offending labeling would bring them into compliance.
I find it telling that you chose the verb "using" over, say, "eating"... :)
But the bad thing about capitalism is that things that are hard (or impossible) to quantify are, at best, an afterthought. It's actually worse than that. Capitalism cannot on its own deal with negative externalities…
I really don't think mosquitoes fulfill any role in the ecosystem that can't be filled in by other species This is literally the exact kind of hubris that got us in this mess in the first place...
I can't help but laugh watching HN commenters, who probably have no kids of their own, take shots at your parenting style. You sound like you're crushing it. Keep it up, man. Personally, I grew up in a single parent…
Seriously? Yes, kids need to learn that responsibility sometimes means doing what we don't want to do, often as part of caring for others. That's called growing up. Then again, given the number of "adults" I've met that…
Fair enough, obviously early access is part of the price differential during the initial release. But are you claiming form factor is not part of the price at all? If so, how do you explain it for books that have both…
