Morality of the death sentence aside, I think the underlying issue here is that this may also be a driver for killing people in the first place. For example, the presence of "re-ed…

A few other advantages of working remotely, at least in my view: - less office politics - no forced socialization, sorry but I have absolutely no interest in your private life whil…

Fusion 360, which looks like is what is being used in the article, has a free license as long as you're a hobbyist or your business makes less than $100000. Fusion 360 has its quir…

My partner and I are the proud owners of a Toyota Corolla CE 2003. We often joke about how it has to be the most nondescript car ever made. It has no extra features (with the excep…

There is "complex", and then there is "complicated", I believe the author refers to the latter. A complex solution involves a lot of moving parts, but each of these parts serves a …

In Canada, also get a few of those every day, even though I barely ever give my number out. I noticed that some of those numbers are within the same area code as mine, but not the …

Commenting on this while my 3D printer is making parts for my new 3D printer, with parts I designed from the comfort of my own home. 3D printing and the RepRap movement have manage…

Facebook recently started sending me notifications that somebody unknown was trying to log into my account, that they'd temporarily blocked it, and later re-enabled it. The emails …

The Github page shows a nice overview and some examples: https://github.com/hanzhanggit/StackGAN . Interestingly it seems to struggle with the birds' legs (e.g. merging them with b…

Hi, just wanted to say you've built something very nice! I just tried it out by re-making a fairly complex diagram and it took me like 10 minutes, including learning the syntax, ve…

Unfortunately, Netflix doesn't work through PIA, they apparently aggressively block IP ranges from most major VPN providers, so the issue isn't specific to PIA. This is a bit of a …

Been using these guys for a few years now, best use of $40/yr. You'll occasionally get blocked on certain sites (which you can often fix by simply changing location), but their inf…

Thank you so much for sharing!

I attended an event called "We The City" in Vancouver last year where Teju Cole gave a talk. He was, in my opinion, a far more interesting speaker than the others. He's what I supp…

You have a point, I think the costs probably depend on a lot of factors, and I suppose a "lot of money" is relative. I expressed some of my frustrations in this rather long comment…

A few points I think are relevant: - I find leaving your country only because you didn't vote for the winner is rather cowardly, you can still do something about it, we're not quit…

Boy do I miss the N900... Mine is sitting on my desk like a museum piece gathering dust, and it makes me sad that no modern phone has come remotely close to it. I used it as my mai…

If I understand correctly, this is not "worldwide internet usage", but actually "page views", which I think is a fairly important distinction to make (at least for the people of HN…

Perhaps I'm being too cynical, but I feel like this is yet another modern philosopher re-hashing the same stuff that's been discussed ad nauseam for literally thousands of years. C…

Perhaps not quite the answer you're after, but I was deaf as a child, though I was able to hear as a toddler and had therefore been exposed to spoken language before going deaf. I …
