Those numbers might reflect the advantages of the jet stream. Curious what the time would be on a return trip.

Looks like very little updating in the past couple of years.

If it matters, hire an attorney. If it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.

Releasing is often the best way to get feedback. [0]

Though I can imagine what you are describing, what I imagine is not what you are describing.

Incidentally, I am not in your target audience. I don't care about my bookmarks, I don't use x, etc.

Tract was founded to build software to fix Britain’s housing crisis.

Though there are problems software can fix, software cannot fix most problems because most problems are not software problems.

In the case of real-estate, it is a mistake to assume general market inefficiency. For example, the "housing crisis" might be a crisis for people looking for housing, but it is not a crisis for land owners and land owners are the real estate market.

A good rule of thumb is "if you think software can solve a problem, you probably don't understand the problem."

I would take not a random John Doe, but someone with an established name in the industry or even here

The difficulty will be instilling confidence regarding reliability, security, etc. among such professionals.

I want to work on a project.

Then work on it.

Donate $20 to charity too.

Good luck.

It's not a big issue.

I don’t see it as an issue at all.

Which is to say how you are inclined to categorize something is not how everyone else categorizes it when they look at it.

it's also not optimal

The current system is simpler and simplicity is a kind of optimization.

Musicians who landed a successful sync licensing deal, have that kind of money. Likewise producers who got points on something that took off.

Anyway, $11,000 for a musical instrument is not that much for a musical instrument even when it is a lot of hamburgers for a given musician.

Ergo, Matt Groening.

Fender makes dupes of its iconic instruments. If someone said, making dupes of Fender guitars is Fender's core business, I wouldn't argue.

Who you know matters more than what you know.

Network.

It is better to be liked than smart.

Be a good hang.

Good luck.

I’m wondering…what the engineering challenges would be

The standard engineering challenges: costs and benefits requiring engineering analysis of actual stakeholder requirements and general principles of life safety.

In this case electrical utilities, electrical equipment manufacturers, and end users are obvious stakeholders. Life safety is harder because current systems have made more than a century of dumb tax payments in the form of corpses and property loss…life safety practices come from experience not theory.

Finally, to me it looks like the low hanging fruit are being converted to DC systems that are compatible with our current infrastructure: laptops, electric cars, etc.

In the US, there is no central hub for evaluating foreign educational credentials.

Two institutions might evaluate your credentials differently.

Likewise states for professional qualifications.

First it was a novel by Larry McMurtry. He later revisited the fictional town of Thalia to write a series of novels.

I am curious what prompted the pattern of behavior of voting and then checking the user’s karma.

To me, that seems like something that might correlate to questionable behaviors such as voting rings. Particularly when connected with Tor.

Not that there’s anything wrong with Tor. Just the combination of behaviors and caring about votes for others not counting enough to do an AskHN makes me wonder what the story is.

Maybe stale user profile pages are more likely to be served via Tor.

The problem with fixed lists is that what is in the spirit of HN evolves.

Single page info-graphics and Awesome-Lists come to mind.

Hell, one or more of PG’s books has one or more baysian generated texts presented as poems.

What I do think we'll (finally) add is a "please give a reason why you flagged this post" step

Do you believe adding friction to flagging will reduce the quantity of low quality articles?

Or is the flagging of high quality articles a bigger and more pressing problem?

Or is the problem simply too-many-damn-flags?

Just curious.

Threading does not change the ways email sucks.

Subject lines have always been the best way and most emails could be nothing but subject line if blank bodies were allowed.

But because subject lines are more work and people who love sending email tend to love it because it is very low effort, the venn of email senders and those who write subject lines is small.

Why not group emails?

Email is a push technology. And the receiver has to manage their inbox for the sender’s enthusiasm.

2-3 weekly emails

A web page could update in real time. It would be more work for the sender. And less work for everyone else.

Because success is an end unto itself, my plan to succeed at reading more books will begin by reading zero books.

Obviously the longer I spend reading no books, the greater my success will be. Time to install TikTok to the homescreen.

Zero to One, Baby.
