Loads to about 90% and freezes. I'm on iOS 10.

Of course I have. I need to keep $3000+ in my checking account. Either way I'm paying for the account either by lending them the $3000 or by a $15 a month fee. Either way I lose ou…

I would love to not have to use a bank.

The interest isn't enough to cover the costs of inflation.

Of course. But then why am I paying bank fees for a checking account? And savings accounts don't even pay enough interest to cover inflation.

It would make more sense to be able to select from a list of available cities instead of a broken auto complete.

The more that I think about banks the more I realize they are no longer relevant. Why do I need to pay a "bank" to keep my money that is simply stored as a digital record? Seems ab…

But not always. People travel more during weekends, holidays, spring and summer school breaks.

Came here to say the exact same thing. I tried typing in Montreal and it took me to Seoul. Really frustrating actually.

Agreed. Nothing will happen to the music. Musicians will use a different service. No need to back everything up. The musicians already have the files which will be easily uploaded …

Thanks for being the kind soul to explain this to me. I'm still pretty new to hacker news.

Sounds exactly like every other industry. I don't see how it's any different. Edit: Seriously? I'm getting down voted. Look I don't care how much you hate the natural products indu…

The main issue with bluetooth is latency. I actually started working on a modern take of Soundflower. Soundflower doesn't work on the latest versions of macOS without a little TLC.…

There has to be a better way.

An oldie but a goodie. I remember reading this years ago.

Chicken or the egg.

As a composer, this title really confused me.

From what I remember from the book it was pretty clear what Deckard is. But I agree, I liked the movie ending. Is there more than one book? I've only read the first.

I've always loved Dystopian novels. Even in the late 90's when I was in high school I thought Brave New World and 1984 were awesome. I'm glad the trend is back. Aside from a good r…

But nobody really knows what fair use means. We have a general idea but that's it.

My goal in life is to automate myself so I can spend more time at the beach.

Yeah that's the problem. Potential solution is universal basic income.

Obviously the more you work the you produce. From his graph the best productivity is less than 40 hours but he thinks 40 is a good trade off between production and productivity. I …

I guess my opinion is that we should all be working less and earning a living wage. I feel that's the trend that must happen with all the automation taking place. And welcome UBI.
