I've never heard of meat substitutes being "marketed ideologically as something that will help reduce economic inequality"—that's such an odd argument to make. What I have heard be…

That’s weird: what disincentives offset the cheaper cost of commercial space?

The fastest way to compute a Fibonacci number is to simply look in up on the Internet -- not kidding. There was a coding challenge that I did a couple months back which required th…

Most likely Google's public launch of .dev domains: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19178757 .

I'm a bit late to the thread, but what happened to Cerebro and the concept of a Knowledge Engine? You wrote that it was launched as "Knowledge Strip" but wasn't as impactful as you…

When I was referring to CommonApp, I didn’t mean to also include along it’s heavy fee per application. Beyond the medical field and lawyers, what other fields do you believe that q…

Not really: I’ve found very useful information by using Google and just having site:reddit.com, and or using the iffy reddit search bar. The benefit of having a voting system is th…

There should honestly be a Common App for internships: one application, a standardized coding challenge, and then interviews. TripleByte seems to be trying to do something similar …

Can we just push deadlines back to December? That's around the same time as most college apps are due, and they're basically the same process.

Those billions aren’t uniformly taxed: that’s what they were pointing out.

Shannon may be well known in the HN community, but definitely not outside of here.

Like it or not, the main cost of university is not from education or from helping graduates find jobs. It's true that anyone with an internet connection can access course material …

Yeah, Typora is still in beta last time I checked so minor issues like that are expected. Just open up an issue on their Github issue page. Hm, for me Pandoc has worked pretty well…

Anyone know if it's possible to give Markdown and LaTeX first-class support in ProseMirror? Having only regex-based shortcuts does not achieve that. What I mean is if you typed bol…

Firefox just doesn’t have enough advantages yet that would convince someone comfortable with Chrome to switch over. While privacy is an ever growing concern, it isn’t a strong enou…

Someone correct me, but can’t ad blockers just be installed through the OS and not be dependent on the browser? I recall this is what I had to do for Safari since there wasn’t a su…

Is moderation on Facebook that large of a problem? I wonder if it’s possible to use the walled garden approach that Apple News does and apply that to Facebook: only distribute glob…

I don’t think Apple will ever release a 2-in-1. Why? It’ll cannibalize their own product lines, the MacBook Pro and iPad Pro. Microsoft doesn’t really have that issue, and hence ca…

There’s more usage to the touchbar than replicating the media controls of the fn keys. For example if you wanted to smoothly scrub through a video, a continuous Touch Bar would mak…

Does anyone know where Binder gets its funding from? Or how much it costs to run an operation like this? I’m wondering if it’s economically feasible to make online textbooks and re…

This. It’s conflicting to see that people who use water for basic needs have a higher water bill than farmers who use it for commercial purposes, and due to the lack of market pric…

There was a recent If Then episode that commented on how China’s declining demand of iPhones may be in part to how people there are agnostic to the hardware and more dependent on t…
