There is probably somebody on HN who's tasks is to train this neural network right now.

Italy pales in comparison to Vietnam.

I had a university friend with an Amiga and another with a similar setup with the Commodore. They had stacks of floppy disks with one game more beautiful than the other. Both spend…

Enlighten me, what is moral about lunch? All kids bring it to school. Of course, my kids also would like an a la carte restaurant for lunch, but we as parents think it is more effi…

Am I missing something? My kids have to bring their own lunch to school. The school is for education and the parents' job is to feed them. And it gets even better: after 12/13 yo t…

The willpower frame actually works pretty well for a lot of people. If not than in our society almost everybody would be obese. This pill will make things worse for the group that …

Oh, I always think the opposite. If the outcome is technical, then quit playing, RTF specs, design and build it. If the outcome is some wobbly user expectation, wobble back with Ag…

I got a course at Oracle on DSDM RAD (rapid application development) and worked on a project with it. The 4GL tooling used at Oracle were no good fit, but back then also Oracle was…

You might think, welding a ship together: what could possibly go wrong? The first ships that were welded would suddenly break in two. These were the liberty ships used in WW2: http…
