This is a well orchestrated publicity stunt. A reputed auction house like Sotheby's would never put an item up before thoroughly checking and documenting it.

Post this stunt, the artwork will now be valued much higher than what it sold for at this auction. Banksy has been known for such ingenious and clever marketing stunts.

"Mindfulness meditation reduced pain by activating brain regions (orbitofrontal and anterior cingulate cortex) associated with the self-control of pain while the placebo cream lowered pain by reducing brain activity in pain-processing areas (secondary somatosensory cortex).

Another brain region, the thalamus, was deactivated during mindfulness meditation, but was activated during all other conditions. This brain region serves as a gateway that determines if sensory information is allowed to reach higher brain centers. By deactivating this area, mindfulness meditation may have caused signals about pain to simply fade away, Zeidan said."

For someone wanting to start an on-demand service, what would be the correct way to design their app so that you could meaningfully link requester to providers?

Adding some for context to the question since it sounds a bit vague - We were thinking of how we would improve the quality of conversation between job seekers (active and passive) and recruiters.

So Recruiters could share Trends like - What's the latest skills on the rise int he Job industry? What are companies actively looking out for? Trends probable job candidates (active and passive) could use to improve their skills. Especially candidates who are not immediately looking for new work - but eventually want to.

LinkedIn Publishing 12 years ago

"Publishing on LinkedIn is a great opportunity to strengthen your professional reputation and get discovered for your knowledge."

So this is basically speed dating for job interviews ! This is how most speed dating events work (atleast in London) - you indicate your interest in the other person anonymously and if they 'like' you back, the system sends out an email to both.

This kinda breaks when someone ends up clicking 'like' for everyone they met at the event ! This someone in your case will be recruiters who'll use the information to hunt probable passive candidates.

So in search for discreteness, the job-seeker would end up falling prey to the game of head hunters.

As someone living and working in London, I pass more than a couple of these 'bins' every single day.

These bins are quite strategically placed (1) in the heart of the square mile - the prime financial district and tourist hub of London city (2) especially around bus stops and city squares in this area - which have some form or other of free city wide wifi networks - where one would be waiting for enough time (consuming lunch, waiting for bus, meeting a friend, shopping...) to be an ideal consumer for targeted advertisement.

They also have an extremely amusing design which makes them look slick - but extremely unlike waste bins - infact you have to look at them closely to find where you need to dispose off your waste. This was one thing that amused me extremely when I first saw them - the strange inconspicuous design - but things make much more sense in the light of this article.

As someone who's targeted more than once a day by these things, I see this as a breach of privacy and expect to be informed that data about me is being collected and stored and maybe used for commercial purposes in the future (irrespective of the ICO technicalities and loop holes).

As a human, its a fundamental breach of trust and I would personally not see these things with the same inconspicuousness they have been designed with to deceptively integrate and blend into our daily environment.

This is really great (except for the Orange!). But love the interface. Kudos.

My only gripe with all HN interfaces is that none of them can login and hence are read-only. You cant really comment on anything.

I agree. The sames true with me. I find myself getting distracted and fiddling around with new frameworks and libraries. I think I'll try your approach of nailing myself down to a Functionality First approach !
