    It's literally something that helps maintain a physical aspect associated with a person's gender. Granted, hairloss can happen to anybody, but baldness is highly predominant toward…

    You're not necessarily wrong but maybe a bit naive about what cutting edge research entails.

    Ok. I'm fine agreeing to disagree.

    Because who cares? There are any number of mathematicians out there, why put so much value on one "thought leader"? I just find HNs obsession with knowing what one particular perso…

    I guess if that's how you feel about it, more power to you. The day I get away from almost all tech will be a good day. Also I get that TSA sucks but I don't think they deserve the…

    This is such a brain dead solution to a problem that shouldn't exist. Why push for digitization?

    Why does it matter what Terrance Tao thinks? Genuinely I find this obsession with what some specific math researcher thinks about x topic bizarre. What do you think of it?

    It's never an easy thing to do or one that should come to fruition, but yes, I would contribute to the effort for my country if it was so.

    No, it's not. But at least they have some relative, albeit flawed, context. It's the difference of having heard of something vs not.

    Its broken with alias but what's this about the podman-socket? Do you know where I can take a look at that?

    You would be surprised how many people have no idea what "machine learning" means (not even technical definition but just as in the field). I'm working on a PhD in an adjacent fiel…

    My only problems with Podman is the lack of up to date repos across systems, the fact that the latest raw binaries are managed by a maintainer out of the goodness of their heart, a…

    Exactly my point, hence why at least from the learning side it works well towards making something that is actually correct. What I was aiming at is that too often people teaching …

    I'm so confused. I'm trying to understand what is wrong with mind wandering but to me it doesn't seem clear.
