Just keeping you on your toes?

I had the same thought, but occupation on the birth certificate is the "usual" occupation the person held.

Again, you of undue certainty: the government attempted this potentially legal avenue, and it was adjudicated as impermissible. Meaning what they tried didn't work. Why are you act…

You can say this person is an idiot all you want, but the fact of the matter is that if DoD does not want to deal with Anthropic through Palantir, their only legal recourse at this…

I've own both, and this one had a nice sticky/tacky sound without a tacky feel. The Model M felt and sounded like loading a releasing a spring! I saw that another commenter suggest…

Love that. As an aside, that keyboard in particular had the best click I've ever experienced.

Genuinely curious, not being combative...what very interesting things have happened in the crypto space lately?

That makes total sense to me. I've avoided onions most of my life. More saliently, I agree that it's off-putting to hide the inclusion of artificial sweeteners. Thanks for your res…

Redundant! Every UPC barcode has a 6 on the beginning, middle, and end. If you've got the mark of the Beast you may as well get Beast Bux.

I've never seen reliable data suggesting that sucralose is harmful. Could be wrong. If you wouldn't mind giving sources, that would be helpful. Or is it just a personal sensitivity…

One of the Gnossiennes was in Spider Forest as well -- great Korean psychological horror.

I think the other commenter is right...you're thinking of DVD-R vs DVD+R, possibly even DVD-RW and DVD+RW. Based on the specs listed, OP was in college just before me or may have o…

Is that really what "wow" means here? I took it more as "wow, I've been around forever / I must be old now" or something similarly tame.

Sorry, yes. I was thinking net worth > 0.

Are you in the black as a household overall? We aren't yet. Our projection is that we will be in 5-7 years. I'm turning forty soon. Just to give you an anchor point.

Same here, but we are in a very similar boat in our voyage through socioeconomic statuses (though I'm in Ohio River Valley US). I may be fooled by the discourse that [Xennials/Oreg…

I feel you. What's worse: amyloid aggregates aren't fraud either, but certain ones are more conducive to fraud, and the fraudsters have been loudly denounced. There is absolutely n…

Got to pay someone to do the catching. We all do these reviews for nothing! Manuscript peer-reviews, and yes, even the major NIH study sections that review numerous grants every su…

I appreciate the moral support from someone on the private research side. Politics aside, we all tend to value the common goal of improving population health, even if egos are temp…

It's also my field. One clarification I would make is, I think, foundational. The amyloid research that was famously falsified was not the mainstream "amyloid hypothesis" research.…

I'm impressed with your dedication and also amazed that I ran into this on HN. My 9-year-old just showed me your Geometry Dash remake in Scratch. You're like a legend to him and hi…

This is my field, and I can't tell, nor do I want to look up yet more papers to figure it out when they don't say it plain. But with methods sections relegated to footnote status, …

You just described the exact end goal of my overall research program, if we can keep the stroke, AD, and Down syndrome + AD cohorts running. Associating blood biomarkers differenti…

From a long-time HN user: please provide a high quality source when making claims connected to a people group. This place works better when we avoid culture wars and demographic-ba…

BlueStacks seems to work great for games. Compared to Nox anyway, and even that was so cool when I first found it. I've heard of LD Player as well but haven't used it. Is it more d…
