Prepare to be downvoted to oblivion. HN is a leftist echo chamber. If you question vaccines, climate change, systemic racism, or the trans ideology, your voice will not be heard.
I’m probably shadow banned already.
You said it better than I could have. Amazing how no one will consider how overstimulating the immune system might create autoimmune disorders.
Have you not noticed the complete disregard the United States has for its citizens?
Don’t people still talk about “low seratonin levels?” I always found it suspect that we say someone’s levels are low without actually measuring them.
I discovered that Midjourney can’t generate a question mark, and if you use the /describe command and give it a picture of a question mark, it hallucinates.
Australia became a full on prison colony. They didn’t contain covid, they imprisoned their entire population.
And someone who is free can choose to be as cautious as they please. They just can’t force their choices on everyone else.
Losses are not fully tax deductible.
“What happens once will never happen again. What happens twice will surely happen a third time.”
This looks like it’s purely about gaming signup metrics for Threads. Make it easy to try, create a huge disincentive to cancel, and suddenly you have a wildly successful, “sticky” app.
I’ve been to Alice Springs. It’s basically a mall and a trailer park in the middle of the desert. If I lived there, I’d be an alcoholic too.
I believe it’s s reference to Tartaria. If you think along those lines, the dynamite makes more sense.
How do you know that’s true?
The SEC could have prevented Coinbase from becoming a publicly traded company, but they didn’t.
Isn’t it interesting how crypto went from tulips to securities all of a sudden?
I would define critical thinking as a way of filtering information before absorbing it as truth. This involves actively questioning it- is it internally consistent, does it seem to have an agenda, are some obvious questions not being considered, are the arguments appealing more to emotion than logic, etc.
“Long Covid” is just our euphemism for adverse reactions. The fact that you’re not even allowed to bring this up casts serious doubt on all studies into the phenomenon.
I overlay the BTC price chart with the chart of Tether’s market cap. The correlation is hard to miss.
Get a short throw projector. You can plug an apple tv into it and project whatever you want on the wall. It’s the perfect dumb screen.
I agree completely.
Also, the following statement is based on a false premise: “ Let's just recognize that Earth actually does belong to all of us, everyone in the present and future, and that those who own pieces of it, and who create things out of it, owe compensation to the rest of us for removing our access to what would otherwise have been common property.”
This implies that creation itself is some kind of theft. The actual theft is taking something from a creative, productive person and giving it to an idle one.
I love my Nintendo Classic- no accounts, no ads, works offline.
I also agree with everything the author wrote about cars. I would add- for all the technology in cars, you still can’t see the exact amount of fuel in your tank. Because then you could determine exactly what mileage you’re getting.
I imagine it will be the same with Adobe and Figma.
AI artworks are derivative, transformative works and therefore not theft
HN censors pro-crypto comments.
We’ll see how well Figma holds up under Adobe, but at this point, I am not optimistic.
I worked at Zip2, and am pretty sure Elon was not fired.
There’s no money in an email list (in itself) and yet it can be valuable. I think it’s all about growing an audience. Maybe there’s a long tail of people who miss RSS.
If only there were some way to issue digital “tokens” in situations like this..
Kubla Khan is a great poem.
That’s how I feel about people who got vaccinated.
