I was slightly hoping this was a piece about ninja turtles.

“I’m as mad as a hornet that SRS didn’t explain where the radioactive waste came from or if there is some kind of leak from the waste tanks that the public should be aware of,” Clements said.

This made me chuckle.

I had high hopes for IPFS, but even it has vectors for abuse.

Is this like the FlatBuffers "zero-copy" deserialization?

Someone just ported this implementation to Rust. :)

Yes. Same for me as well. It just works and is easy for my fingers to remember without consciously thinking about it.

Somewhat related, does anyone know the difference between `erlang:suspend_process` and `sys:suspend` when trying trying to "unschedule" a process for executing reductions? Are they the same thing?

As someone who lives near the rocky mountains, I will say the part about getting struck by lightning by a storm that's up to 10 miles away is quite accurate.

I was out riding my bike one afternoon in Chatfield State Park in Colorado when I looked up and noticed how quickly the weather changed. Clouds had rolled over the mountains in the west and I heard lightning strike in the distance.

In the same second, I saw electricity arc between my hands and the handle bars as my fingers froze for a second. I didn't feel any pain or shock, but I got out of the area real quick.

I was talking to an artist a few years ago who seemed to downplay the significance of her art as we discussed the paths of lives we each took, she a traditional artist and I a hacker.

I had to quickly remind her that the importance of her art was substantial because it helped other people see ideas and other unseen things clearly. We need this in our communities and societies more than ever.

I love this idea because those with good taste can show layers of depth through their art much better than those with poor taste.

Thanks for the updates! I'm compiling it now...

A friend of mine posted my site, but I thought I should say a few words:

This is my first startup-based website that I've built for myself and I'd like to get feedback from the hacker news community.

Please let me know what you think of the site and I'd love to hear your advice and/or suggestions.

Thanks HN!

I really like this. Any plans for an API so I can pull my data onto my own interfaces/webpages?

I applied 2 months ago and never heard anything back. What kinds of apps do you guys want to make?
