gotta do communications over radio, if only cell phones had that access during an emergency situation. i know that would need more power and a bigger antenna to have a radio broadcast mesh network. i know there are issues with that but it’s better than no communication to the outside world especially during a crisis situation, people really should have the freedom to communicate.

what if there was a way to “increase frame rate” by adding in some type of logic checker between two generated images? kinda like a comparison between two generated frames that would lead to more generated images that mimic movement? so like a filler between frames that would predict how something got to one shape to another using a set of properties that a generated object has, those properties could be weight, speed, gravity etc etc, it just depends on what object it is conceptualizing or constructing

bikes honestly should follow pedestrians, a bike is not a car and the person who will be the most amount of injured will be the person on the bike over the person of the car. so maybe have both car and bike be able to see each other in bike lanes, and keep the sidewalks to the cars. there really should be an initiative to expand the shoulders in rural america. lost of places in america are not even walking friendly. america decided to be different and make cars the main focus which is killing us (toxic gas fumes everywhere)

i know they really like milkweed which a lot of people kill without thinking of the environmental consequences.

it would be nice if they had this for people with substance abuse disorders who have nobody and want to get clean

i would like to go even wider and just block all news sites as they tend to push political agendas from their prospective which mostly is filled with speculation that often causes unnecessary stress

can they redirect the light beams using solar mirrors that orbit the moon somehow? kinda like a light redirection satellite? technically speaking if there is enough panels and enough wiring to build a grid it could work. the energy would just have to travel via cables once harvested

open source learning

it’s going to be interesting to see personal rockets one day complete with regulations and all the ins and outs of that industry becoming mainstream

it happens all the time to people of color who get busted for weed in a non-legal state. it’s actually been this way for years in america, a lot of these overextending started from the red scare, terrorism but yeah a large part was based on the war on drugs which largely has been an expensive failure

has anyone thought of the cost of any existing banking infrastructure and also the all of the cost from the federal reserve? lots of human resources, time (our most precious asset)

i’ve trained on flutter for over 8 months and pushed an from design to app on the app store and built the api in dart as well.

i am one of those weirdos who likes it but nobody is hiring so i am rebrushing back up on javascript and react native. one area i would love to see is json being automatically accessible just like in javascript, also their routing in flutter needs work. it’s not for everyone but it has a ton of potential if some things get change

wow, and here i am coding off and on since i was nine years old (port scanners, bots, blogs, ezines, chat servers, simple games, apps etc) cd and feeling like an imposter, so i don’t bother applying to tech jobs because i think i am not good enough and yet guys like the guy you worked with are getting all sorts of positions. maybe i should push myself more. having social anxiety sucks

if you follow /r/futurology /r/technology and sometimes here throughout the years you will see breakthrough after breakthrough, these small advancements do make it into manufacturing sooner than what people think, one of the biggest challenges was for me was reading about cool tech and waiting forever for it, then giving up on it and deeming it as a probably just a clickbait promise, but not to much sooner after i have forgotten the advancements, they make their way into everyday life proving to me that technology never comes as soon as you think it does, but it comes eventually.

well a changed mind can lead to some interesting enhancements in life.

people are missing out when they shut themselves out completely.

like we’ve all been wrong before, which means someone we disagreed with was at least right about something.

i think the bigger thing people have to be okay with is just letting things go after a certain point.

some people will argue until they are blue in the face

this idea will one day return, it’s never gone for good. just delayed

i am a programmer but don’t get paid for it yet. hopefully i can get out there before the crash (if any)

depends on dialect of english

well one aspect that is not really talked about is confidence, most wealth gained from people who can present their idea confidently, a lot of confidence comes from security. a lot of americans (my family for instance) we’re brought over on a boat with a promise of a better life if we worked for someone, my family was indentured servants who were scammed into working for free when they got here. a few of us died, many never recovered, my parents at a young age got into a terrible crash so i spent most of my childhood taking care of my father instead of the other way around. being raised in a small town that didn’t value university schooling i resulted to working in construction which ended up as damaging my arm and i ended up in serious depression, pain medicine was given to me and i ended up getting addicted because it was the only thing that made me feel normal after the accident. i started coding at a very young age but was diagnosed with add but was never treated so as time went on, it became more and more difficult for me to focus. later on i finally decided to go to school and the first year i was there i had to drop out because i got my gf pregnant. that forced me to go back to construction but ended up quitting after a bad breakup. so yeah we all aren’t starting out the same, some of us have a severe handicap that is hard to explain during interviews

i am really excited about the progress ai researchers are making, this makes me think that virtual worlds could one day be little staycations for those of us on a budget. also the other thing it reminds me of is the first matrix movie, which when it came out i was a huge fan of, very cool indeed

that is true but it increases the barrier to entry for those who use google fonts for system resource issues, a lot of people offload because they don’t have the space or money to self host everything

one could argue that it is less eco friendly as well given how much space is going to be used repeating the same file on a multitude of servers

it’s not really that people don’t want to work in the states, for some it was lack of social support, outstanding college debt that made the bar to entry seem impossible or to late for some. especially for those who took care of their parents growing up because their parents were sick at a young age.

that is a good take on it, i would also say happiness, if you see your parents and grandparents falling in love and starting a life together but you are pushing 40 with nothing to show for it because of unstable environment conditions, poor schooling and unfair labor wages which are all have to do with equality then people will look for a representation of their struggle.

the blm movement was not just about blm, a lot of it was used as a starter to talk about a related issue. which is equality in general, you can see this by how many socialist supporters came out. in reality mlk supported fair wages for all working class people and that is the “conspiracy” theory of why he got shot, but obviously if people can’t eat, or if they feel very they are being massively mistreated, they will riot.

it would be fun to animate them and put them in a game about elephants

100k years! wow, can we reuse this stuff if we are able to stabilize it enough to send into space?

the energy crisis is not really a crisis with energy but a crisis with policy, there is a lot of energy floating around us that we do not harvest, the ocean is filled with energy that can be harvested safely without harming ecosystems. we really have a lack of resourcefulness problem, outdated systems in place that stop progress and keep us all asking why can’t we fix this?

i think they are referring what we use to be allowed to say in chat channels and on forums. it was a lot more raw, a lot of offended people starting getting online and treating the internet like it was real life, part of the beauty of the internet was how non-regulated it was, granted the quality has gotten better, safer spaces for things like business, finance and other sensitive information but we also lost the jokes that the internet use to have, on the main channels at least. back in the day you could get kicked from a mainstream irc channel but it too a lottttt to get banned from an irc network or even an online forum. which granted you can still find sub communities like you mention that still cater to hacking, off jokes and crazy information but it’s not tolerated on the main channels of communication like before, which is fine for people who weren’t into that stuff because it didn’t change for them. but overall there has been changes, not terrible but def not the same as irc/usenet/bbs’s during their hayday. information was widely accessible but a lot of it is a paywall these days, also torrenting was a lot more common and i could call someone a moron without getting flagged. but yeah we still got some freedom and there are better quality services in some ways, i guess it just depends on your personality and how much it has limited expressing ones self authentically.

this and the amount of additives we have in our food supply here in the us. many of the color additives have been studied and many are considered immunosuppressants and abundantly found in many many many foods that you wouldn’t even think of, check out the app yuka, it allows you to scan upc codes and it will give you a readout of all the studies on each additive a product has and whether it has any adverse affects. many hazardous additives are allowed to be used in our food supply.

it’s always interesting to see how many people on hn dislike web3, could it be because some have investments in “traditional” ventures that may become obsolete due to web3? i can understand the negativity towards it but to me this is how technology operates. whenever something new comes out the next generation adopts it while the previous generation seems to be extremely skeptical until one day they buy in. what i would love to see is the hype subside, the market to level out and then see where we are, i really don’t see this going away anytime soon, in reality it’s gonna be here for a lot longer than what most skeptics think

i agree, if you buy something, you buy it for how it is, now sometimes we may want to update for our benefit but other times maybe not, maybe updating would cause more harm than help. therefore we should have to consent to updates, i 100% agree with this and it’s not even that much code to add a “is it cool if we update?” alert.
