“RF Mapping” or open sourced SIGINT? So many issues here. The IC at least has to abide by the constitution (fourth admenment, hello?). What does HE360 have to abide by? Entire comp…

The cost of takeaway/delivery has gotten absurd. I was looking at my deliveroo account the other day (UKs door dash) which has my order history all the way back to 2018. The drop-o…

Yes. Because when Americans “spy on” other Americans they have to abide by the fourth amendment. China does not.

Glad to see pydantic get mentioned here. It’s a great solution for this exact problem. I was introduced to it by FastAPI and have been using it in all my projects since. At the end…

Tell that to your 401k

These animations are incredible. Still can’t believe the price that people are paying for NFTs. I’m all for dropping money on art, but when inflation is at “8.5%” and you see the a…

As an expat currently in the UK - my electric tariff is about to go from .18p per kWh to .36p. Gas is doubling as well. Most homes here have awful insulation, so I’ll be looking at…

The reporters are asking tough (but correct) questions. The government is also doing its diligence to protect sources and methods. The thing to remember, though, the point of relea…

I’m glad I’m not the only one who strictly enforces a no-shoe house policy (I mean, have you seen the piss puddles men stand in at the urinal?).

This is surreal. I’m a US expat living/working in the UK. Mostly disconnected from US media. Those of you living in LA… is it really this bad?

> I was always of the impression that short low-quality comments that don’t further the discussion are prime examples of acceptable downvote targets here. Disagreeing with a constr…

Why don’t you buy some of those 2 year puts?

I’m doubling down on FB stock. See all you haters in 10 years :)

Wow, every paper linked to in this leans left. Fascinating. Someone is out for blood.

Is this legal?

The political posts on here are amazing though. You get well thought out arguments from both sides. The only downside is the down voting/silencing of people’s opinions when the mas…

One of the reasons I tend to lurk more than post. It’s disappointing to throw out an opinion and get attacked for it. I’m fine if you disagree (and I look forward to it) but it see…

Same size, but same quality? “Cheap” food does no one any good if the quality has an adverse effect on health

It’s always more convenient to blame the messenger. There is a serious lack of responsibility placed on the users of Facebook. Maybe the world would be a better place if everyone h…

Expat living in the UK here. One of the first things I had trouble finding here was good pizza. I tried everything in the town I live in and couldn’t find something to satisfy the …

How did we get to a point where we think it’s OK to tell someone what they should do with their body? For the record: I am vaccinated and I always encourage others to do so. But wh…

Check out “eigenfaces.” It’s straight forward and works reasonably well. There are a lot of interesting applications of PCA and SVD. Signal and noise separation, machine learning, …

Cool to see an article on the front page of HN from my alma mater :)

Am I the only one who finds some of these representatives impressively... unimpressive? And don’t even get me started on the format. How are we supposed to set an example for the w…

Fiduciary duty is to the shareholders. There is a misconception that you are not a shareholder. Do you have a 401k? A pension? Any investments? Everyone benefits, even if you're on…
