It's because they are so busy. Yeah, costco is the one store I go to that people seem to have 0 spatial awareness. Every time I go, someone will just stop moving in the middle of t…

If anthropic‘s reliability becomes a meme, they risk brand death like Microsoft. Go to hand it to them though, they’re really living that “AI writes all of our code and it should w…

Yes - I’ve seen the pricing algorithms at several large insurers. Massive surcharges for young people 16-25, rates level out 30-55, and then slowly start to go back up, but it’s a …

I misread the title as “AdaBoost” and got excited for some old school ML discussions on HN. My disappointment is immeasurable.

Kagi sure does keep me on my toes. I love it. I won't be using this at all, but I appreciate it exists. If you opened one on the East Coast I could see myself visiting. To all thos…

Wherever the crowd sourcing says.

I use Orion as my daily driver, mostly because of its Kagi integration.

I have a personal theory that this technology is inevitable, and will become widely used. As the technology gets better, and these cameras get more discrete, anyone not wearing the…

My wife and I recently decided to do IVF. The doctor specifically told us that we needed to order the medicine (menopur, Gonal F, etc) from an American pharmacy. That alone made me…

Makes sense. Being in organized crime must be fucking fascinating. One day, you’re haggling on the price of black market eggs. Next day, you’re arranging the smuggling of sand from…

Is anyone else fascinated more about the stories of the people that get into this kind of stuff? I mean, it seems like you must just be destined to be in this business if you are i…

Anyone know how I could convert this to an HD image? Interested in seeing if I can frame it centered on my house.

Wow, coolest thing I’ve seen while doom scrolling this week. I wonder how accurate that is. It must be an especially dense cross section, because it doesn’t leave much room for hal…

It would be really interesting to see if they take that into account when they make these decisions. I’d have to imagine that the top X percent are also the highest paid, so maybe …

Every time I hear news like this, I think “hmmm layoffs coming to XYZ soon”. For some reason, the idea that RTO is caused by out of touch execs is pervasive, but I really don’t thi…

The number of establishments I have seen doing this has skyrocketed. The last 2, I edited my review afterwards to 1 star and saying “this place gives a discount for good reviews”.

I use Orion exclusively because Kagi is the default search engine. It does have a few more bugs than chrome / safari, but they're well worth putting up with to get native Kagi supp…

You’re misconstruing the argument. American citizens don’t elect Chinese politicians, I don’t want the Chinese government to have my data. I don’t want the American government to e…

I didn’t mean to imply that, my entire post should be caveated with “on average”. There are certainly good programmers out there who don’t really enjoy it.

"Programming" as a career is in an interesting position right now. Due to demand and the job itself, you can make a lot of money, work remotely, in a medium-low stress job, without…

Yeah, people like to think there’s all kinds of grand conspiracies out there when it comes to insurance companies. But they’re all actually very, very boring. All of these pricing …

I started out drinking a lot, usually 2 cups per day, one at breakfast and lunch. But eventually I just weaned myself down to one cup at breakfast for a few years, and I was still …

I had a very similar experience as this author. All throughout high school and college, I was prescribed Adderall. After graduation, I got a job, and realized Adderall wasn't good …
