Participants were asked how frequently, on a scale ranging from “never/seldom” to “very often,” they watched television during their leisure time and how much of their workday they spent sitting.

Not only do they get elected, sometimes they become heroes:

is OP addicted to checking out maps and the parents group on whatsapp?

not sure where the problem is?

look at maps only in the car, mute whatsapp and then check it from time to time.

seems pretty straightforward.

oh, i would say it went quite well:

The main source for the events of the battle is Herodotus. According to his account, the Spartans held Thermopylae for three days, and although ultimately defeated, they inflicted serious damage on the Persian army. Most importantly, this delayed the Persians' progress to Athens, providing sufficient time for the city's evacuation to the island of Salamis.

Though a tactical defeat, Thermopylae served as a strategic and moral victory, inspiring the Greek forces to defeat the Persians at the Battle of Salamis later the same year and the Battle of Plataea one year later.

there is a point where the analogy breaks.

Yes, when it comes to irl mountains you could have a lift that stops along the way. And when it comes to irl books, there is no way to bypass the journey, so to speak.

Also, just a note: it's usually not fun, nor interesting, to quibble and nitpick analogies, that's not what they're there for.

would I read the summary of a book expecting the same thing as reading the book?

no

I climb mountains to see the views; the views are there independent of how much effort I put on the path (or how much satisfaction I draw at the end of trek), but I do have to put in the effort to see the views.

That's not what high literature is. That's like looking at some clever linux kernel code and dismissing it in favor of a small nodejs backend.

Good literature is difficult (not always, of course). Just like you can't go from a couch potato to running a marathon in one day, you can't jump from Brandon Sanderson to enjoying Gormenghast (or something like the The Worm Ouroboros). It's impossible. It takes effort, it takes time and it takes a lot of reading to appreciate what the real masters can do with mere words.

Speaking is even worse: a diarrhea of filler words, like 'like', 'I mean', and 'you know'.

and the british have: obviously, innit, fam, right, know what I mean, etc

cute easter egg on the story points showcase :)

name the fibers, the meal and the quantity

if you one broccoli head with one pound of icecream then sure, you will feel hungry again quite soon

AI will go no differently than the Industrial Revolution.

the children will rejoice, they were yearning for the mines after all. and being maimed by mechanical looms and being burned alive in sweatshops[1]

Aristotle's second book of Poetics, of course.

that's the license for the API, not the content/data the API serves

yes, and per HN terms and conditions only YC and YC affiliated (as you quoted) can use the api legally. I don't license my content to anyone else and so it shouldn't be use by anyone else, even if it's available on a free-for-all API (nice move HN, btw).

Y Combinator and its affiliated companies

is zX41ZdbW either?

oh hey, per HN terms and conditions I license my HN data only to HN. Can you please remove my data from the set? Thank you!

does the UI have a compact mode?

"not a spurious (false) heatwave" is a funny way to say it...

It’s just summer, not a spurious heat wave.

what are you implying here

are you learning new things or are you just reading LLMs output? there might be some overlap, but those are very distinct activities

I'm not sure PHP deserved that...

no no,i agree with torlok, OP's comment stinks of AI

Correct. They indeed do this in the name of security as announcing they do it for profit would probably be bad PR.

it's already implemented... in MV2.

MV3 specifically forbids remotely hosted 'code', which apparently filter lists are.

No, that's a read from people who equate suffering and toiling with meaning. The Culture is a true utopia, Iain says it explicitly.

no, he's engaging into a classical "tu queque" that adds nothing but noise to the discussion, maybe except some division between classes and pointless finger-pointing

what's your argument? are you actually making one or ... ?

Math is math, but sadly math isn't physics nor engineering.
