Pretty serious MTB/cyclocross racer here that's done a lot of trailbuilding and trail advocacy: a lot of dudes are scared that offroad ebikes are going to kill access to hard-won t…

I have no expertise in any of this, but I was assuming it would be something along the lines of an IDIQ (indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity) contract vehicle: https://en.wiki…

In discussion on other HN threads, some commenters suggested that the board was composed that way to grease the wheels of a DoD acquisition of the company's "tech". As OP put it [ …

You are a set of eyeballs or "impressions." Maybe you won't click on the ad, but you were displayed it, which is a success in and of itself.

You should read about the "third person effect": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-person_effect "The Third-person effect [1] hypothesis or Third-person perception or Web Third-pe…

Neither of those situations you provide above. As noted in the article I link and quote further down the thread, these companies utilize an often-desperate workforce that will take…

I can't rely directly to yummyfajitas, but here is a NYT article that summarizes the issue[1]: "“They may be able to paint someone’s shed this week,” says Dr. Standing, a professor…

Also, the companies are deflecting costs back onto taxpayers by ensuring that many of their workers will need to depend on government services for health care, housing and food ass…

Elevation for fitness apps and environmental and weather(?) reporting.

It's also model-contingent and sometimes luck. My SAAB has required about $1,600 a year for repairs and maintenance in the past three years I've owned it, but my wife's Honda Eleme…

Yes, there is that limit –– and a good one. You could get around it maybe if you were with some friends doing a klatsch with staggered drinking rates and drink start times, but the…

Two in Chicago (Lincoln Park and Mag Mile), but both of those areas are basically outdoor malls in a loose sense.

Absolutely agree. Bitcoin is one of the hottest news stories right now. People want to know more about Bitcoin. A big question about Bitcoin is "who created Bitcoin?" Newsweek answ…

People also probably give you immense grief over the ridiculous tax deal the stadium has with Hamilton County. :p

I have a 16 year old sister. She was on Facebook and then deleted her profile. She deleted her profile at about the same time she went from being semi-awkward early teenager still …

This was the first thing I thought when I saw that subhead.

Oh, this. My first few years at a university I was a horrible student . I'm talking C's, D's, lots of non-completes. I was a mess, academically. Then around 22, a switch clicked in…

I was a Mac kid, so my world was Marathon, but I think a lot of the lessons are the same. I remember building my own custom worlds, really screwing up the physics, and then deletin…

Wow, I passed through Kansas City a few months ago on a cross-country move and wish I knew about this store (and stopped in). I don't often fund kickstarters, but this one I could …

The funny thing is, is that when you use Siri, Apple Maps seems to be more accurate. I can say, "Directions from home to 123 Main Street, Hometown" and the directions will be perfe…

They're still out there. There are some very cherry examples on saab.net My girl's Viggen was the lightning blue coupe. She sold it when she got into grad school. We often talk abo…

It's really weird. Any sort of subculture is kinda hipster now. I am into punk rock and cycling. I am not afraid to say that I am probably a hipster. In fact, I am sure of it. Hips…

I totally, absolutely agree. Once you give up exercise, it goes downhill fast: mentally, spiritually, and of course, physically. The morning is the best time to take care of the bo…
