State-funded media has it's own problems but at least there's some accountability which is effectively nonexistent for large media companies. As long as the free market rewards sen…

It's just as misleading to string together dozens of "sources" in an article to prop up a narrative. It appears to me that the website you've linked is just playing on peoples para…

News channels do not broadcast 24 hours of news. The majority of programming are personalities, opinions and "recaps." The actual news comes on in hour-long chunks once early in th…

In what world is an attempt to understand the actions of a governing body more disturbing than disappearing someone? The pondering of morality and underlying intentions are what fu…

In terms of using deep fakes to impersonate political figures, I do think we'll ultimately be okay on that front. I can see the entertainment industry being flipped on it's head an…

People have had the opportunity to impersonate anyone they'd like over the radio for over 100 years and yet, here we still stand.

Apologies for the 2 day late reply, I forget to check my comments on HN far too often. The issue isn't when a restaurant drags their feet with an order, it's when they don't know t…

It certainly feels like fraud if that so-called supplier never agreed to be a vendor in the first place. If the line to check out at the grocery store was 2 hours long, you wouldn'…

Personally I prefer the idea of a zero-frills Excel, but this makes sense as MS needs an answer to Airtable and it's ilk.

FWIW, Postmates has been doing these "Place & Pay" orders since ~2012. A courier for Postmates was more akin to someone taking orders from an app like Favor/TaskRabbit than a purpo…
