I think OP may be implying the fossil fuels are necessary for the "industrial revolution" part of a civilization's development -- and that industrial revolution is a gating factor …

I bookmarked this comment from a few months ago on how one might make such a trade: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26174690

This is pretty cool! > With modern CSS, WYSIWYG Web design is simply impossible. Web pages are crafted manually by editing CSS, that is by nature of CSS. mmm.page[1] would like a w…

> you could argue that all the big cloud providers could easily compete with Cloudflare and crowd out their proposition. I would definitely argue the first point here, but not the …

Agree, especially with the concession. "Big Cloud" is best equipped to deal with forthcoming regulations. Outpost may be local zones today (needs fact check), but maybe a better qu…

Good article, I feel people don't spend a lot of time thinking about this stuff. The gap here for me is that AWS, GCP, and the like are perfectly equipped to build infra "from the …

For MVP you could just have a bot account that retweets!

I haven't spent the time to read this, but it's hot off the press and maybe relevant: https://twitter.com/JoshWComeau/status/1379438688602570753

Along with dehydration, I'm surprised he does not mention salt/carb manipulation, which I'm sure he did as well. Step 7 here is likely counterintuitive for most - to look big and s…

Have you looked at RNDR? Sounds like it could be a perfect match for what you are looking for. It's designed for Octane GPU renderer but there are more render engine supports comin…

I personally am seeing a ton of activity in 3D powered web experiences. Eventually it will mix with webXR for the AR/VR devices of the future. If you are interested in these techno…

Amazing, kind of like Stripe's konami code for their 3d gradient background. I actually took a stab at doing this in three last year: https://twitter.com/Chase_Davis_/status/134070…

Awesome. Loving the recent proliferation in web 3D. Q for folks at GH -- is this vanilla three.js? Looks like Babylon in dev tools. You guys should consider using react-three-fiber…

I would say that modeling teeth with geometry is very easy. The material, lighting, and rendering is the challenge, especially when you consider all of the occlusion (and hard/soft…

I'm with you that I doubt there are GANs running in real time here, however I don't know see why they wouldn't be using similar models for offline static asset generation. As far a…

Pretty interesting! I have seen one or two of these "trading in public" apps emerge recently. The one that comes to mind is Commonstock. I like that this is a public web page that …

My favorite unpopular opinion to share (I work in video) is that 99% of viewers don't care about resolution above 720p. Other encoding and playback characteristics are just way mor…

A strategy as old as hedge funds themselves: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-07-02/hedge-fun...

I don't know that it's outright illegal. But manipulating the price of a token for your own gain, at someone else's expense, is illicit imo. If I know how an oracle calculates a pr…

It's certainly fascinating... ETH enables a collateral-less loan, which is wild, and something I'd point towards for skeptics who "haven't seen one use case crypto/blockchain enabl…

Admittedly, I know very little of the battery industry, and not much more about gravity battery viability. That said, naive me would would ask why we can't just fill ballasts with …

Thanks, apologies for missing that. I wonder if other measurement tools (e.g. Adobe color picker) are also fooled by the OS in this case.

Illicit tactics aside which other comments seem to cover, for HN'ers, I suspect there's a very real opportunity to make money by providing security auditing services to crypto star…
