Its really not. If it sounds like a dishwasher it just isn't the same. That being said, it is rude to use excessive throttle in residential areas after hours.

Sounds like a bunch of grumpy grandpas in here today. "Those hogs are too loud!" "My delicate hearing!" I can agree though that the "loud pipes save lives" argument is silly. The t…

I was expecting a lot of ambitious projects would be mentioned, but it seems as if a lot of HN wants the same as me. I would Unplug. Take the kids camping, explore a national park …

I tossed a milk create full of old omni magazines from the late 80s and early 90s about 6 months ago. Did not realize they were at all desirable. I almost donated them to a local k…

Every time I read about arctic ocean ice cover and warming of the north pole it reminds me of the work of Ewing and Donn. They theorized that the ice age cycle is driven (in conjun…

Because we have been conditioned to defend the honor and virtue of arbitrary political tribes by attacking viewpoints and ideas that do not align with our own preconceptions. If th…

Saw this one described as the "ministry of truth" on one of the alt-right websites. I like how they emphasize that it will be deployed/instituted under the direction of the trump a…

Thank you for this little nugget of wisdom! It puts one of my past employers into a relevant context.

"Nice guy trump" isnt really the campaign he ran, or what got him elected. Class conflict is a constant in politics, but still doesn't explain "prince trump for the little guys"

Ok I understand the rural/urban divide. I recognise the inherent value differences separating farm country and the major metropolitan areas. What I can't wrap my mind around is tha…

Yup, I'll buy that sauce. Been there, done that, not again. Testify, brothers!

That makes sense. I was indeed doing some hovering and dithering over tents. What I found curious however, is the fact that I have never ordered anything from REI on my phone, nor …

REI knows how to close the deal: I was shopping a while back for a new tent. Wondered if I should wait for a 20% off single item coupon event like they do a couple times a year. Go…

I went through a phase in my late teens where I used an old typewriter to record my screeds on life, politics and technology. It was fun to get that rythm going with the keys clatt…

What did you do prior to school? Seems there may have been some time between HS and uni. What was going on that led you to pursue a business field? Why did you choose business admi…

To be fair, getting a degree in business administration is basically asking for a soul crushing corporate desk job.

My java script fatigue led me to disable it on my phone. Seriously. I's been about nine months. I use the exceptions feature to add in common sites where it is required. I have bee…

Or at least until "rich" becomes your identity, then you defend your position. http://paulgraham.com/ineq.html

"A candle against the sun" or something like that. I wonder if the gamma bursts from nuclear testing are discernible from the solar noise? It would reduce the distance to about abo…

Relevant? Maybe just food for thought. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/08/do-what-...

What do they have you doing, and what you would like to be doing? If the difference is insurmountable (or if your career goal is different from the job reality) then you are on the…

Could be just a case of run of the mill depression. What else has been going on in your life the past 6 months? First job? Recent move? Girls? What kind of personal projects do you…
