> and signing off very early to babysit his young children. Are you serious with this? Parenting is not "babysitting". Would you call it babysitting if he wasn't a male parent? It'…

I worked in a prison facility for three years, where all the inmates knew my first and last name, which is unique (I'm probably the only person with my first/last name in the world…

I had the opportunity to choose between a used 6 and a new 8 or X after my 5s tragically drowned a couple months ago. After playing with the new ones, I couldn’t justify the price …

You could sell it on Craigslist and donate the proceeds to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Not sure how to prevent it from being used for its intended purpose unless you destro…

>>>I don't really want to live in a world where anyone on the internet can destroy my income via anonymous complaint. That seems really ripe for abuse. You already live in this wor…

I buy from the product manufacturer’s or brand’s storefront whenever I have the choice because I no longer trust Amazon‘s supply chain.

This is not a solution. I specialize in cancer treatment and I have spend countless hours trying to track down people who cannot receive calls from our medical center. These people…

What is your definition of success?

This is one of the most obnoxious posts I have ever read on HN. I'm actually feeling a buildup of rage reading it. First, there is never a justification for using the word 'slaves'…

These types of systems have pushed me toward carrying cash again. After feeling manipulated and/or guilty by the tip-requesting interface in situations where I would not normally t…

I pay cash at restaurants and many other people still use cash over credit cards. How would you integrate these patrons? Could I still leave my cash on the table and leave? What ab…

A lot of people don't live in places with an in-home washer/dryer. They have to go elsewhere in the building for pay laundry or to the laundromat. This makes it logistically and fi…
