Thanks for sharing this, it actually makes it easy. I somehow convinced myself it was a trick having to do with ages being rounded off to whole numbers, so delta-age can be off by …

Role Hemp! I miss those days.

now it says unstainable Also true!

It might not incompetent to assume the audience is not very discerning

Well said. But 'fear of God' only works until religion itself is hijacked.

What a great read, it reminds me of "True Believer" by the great Eric Hoffer. "Stupid" as a word is a translation choice, it would be more effective if they had chosen a less derog…

You can set the wind to 0 and the speed somehow stays at 35 knots, I don't know much about sailing but that can't be right

Some people like to show off their creativity by making tenuous claims that every single thing is racist

Great visualization but lost me at the end when it got a bit too preachy. Turning socioeconomic issues into race issues doesn't help anyone.

With most 2fa systems going through people's cell phones, this is scary.

How does one even get into the cofounder speed-dating circuit? My background is software engineer, SE manager, occasionally playing PM/TPM at a big company. I want to build somethi…

Maybe pedantic, but this seems like just a heads-up display. AR implies the projected image interacts with real objects in your field of vision. I wouldn't call this AR. Nice HUD t…

I'm sick of the NIMBY card. This should not be in ANYONE'S backyard. NIMBYism is Houston, Atlanta, etc. buying one-way bus tickets to Seattle and SF. Locals who want the problem so…

Interesting read but they lost me in the last paragraph before the conclusion where they recommend a specific brand and dose of cholesterol supplement.

I had impostor syndrome for years and eventually stopped caring what other people think. I have a fancy title. I say dumb stuff in meetings and smart people roll their eyes. I am a…

This is literally how Snowpiercer begins

anyone else reminded of the Spinal Tap album "Smell the Glove" cover discussion? > How much more black can it be? None! None more black

Some of the things people currently believe are so patently absurd and obviously made up that labeling them as false would not make much difference. It's would be just one more con…

The obvious result of this will be that news is less accessible and "news" is more accessible. Am I missing something?
