I've used a service from Free Map Tools for years that did this exact same thing. It was very accurate, but appears to have recently been taken down. https://www.freemaptools.com/h…

This is why as I look to the future that my two year old son will inherit as an adult, I'm going to make sure that he has a really solid grasp of philosophy. The cutting edge of to…

* If you love life, then don't waste time, for time is what life is made of. - nindalf

I hear these kinds of statistics all the time and they are appalling, but I need to understand how they are measured in order to think about the best ways to fix the problem. There…

If communism could just be boiled down to "laborers own the means of production" then what stops that from happening within capitalism? What prevents people from banding together t…

I understand the appeal of self learning physics for the sake of knowledge, but is there a market for self taught physicists in the same way that there is for self taught web devs?…

I think that you inadvertently pointed to a piece of the puzzle that is pretty important, but retirement communities are a problem, not a solution. The ideal city is habitable to p…

I've spent too many hours day dreaming about building a city from scratch in the middle of the country. An ideal spot would be around Wilson Lake in Kansas. It is almost equidistan…

It seems that a simple solution would be to cut out the ad networks. If the New York Times or The Economist just serve the ads themselves, rather than using a third party network w…

So instead of 10k static 32x32 random images of cats for training data, why not do 10k frames of cat videos that add up to seeing the cat moving and interacting with the environmen…

I agree that it is a niceness tax, and would go further and say that tipping has come to mean more about the person tipping, and less about the service you receive. When a waiter (…

I agree, the giant lie is the problem. It has taken me a fair amount of travel; getting repeatedly lured in to tourist destinations based on the amazingly beautiful and serene phot…

I think that we all have areas where we don't know what we're doing. This is one of mine. With all the talk of how obvious/important/easy it is to have a failover in place in case …

A bit of feedback: you should have a link back to your dashboard on every page. That seems like the most important page to me as a user, but if I am changing my notification or acc…

I first saw Blendle from one of the HN "Who's hiring" threads while looking for jobs in Utrecht. It was right around the time that there were a ton of stories about intrusive/track…

There are also plenty of children of wealthy families that essentially receive checks from their parents every month that they live on, in exchange for no real work responsibilitie…

It says at the end what the four styles are: 1. Vincent Van Gogh 2. Pablo Picasso 3. Kiyoshi Yamashita 4. Katsushika Hokusai

I can't help but think that there is opportunity here. It seems like most cities have gone through a cycle where industry moved out of cities, a lot of those parts of town got conv…

What does "losing at skydiving" look like?

Especially since he has almost certainly seen Netflix ads, and proclaims himself to be a customer.

I've always read the "great filter" as some kind of mass extinction. I just think that the Fermi paradox gained popularity when everyone thought that both our travel speeds and our…

1,400 light years/~45,000mph (the speed of New Horizons) = 23,844,146.8 years of travel time. I guess that wouldn't be impossible, but if you've got a ship that can last that long …

Can't interstellar travel just be impossible?

Your contact info isn't in your profile, so I'll reply here. I am an American citizen hoping to move to Utrecht in the near future, and would like to ask you a few questions. Conta…
