It used to not have tarot function. It still doesn't. But it used to not too.

Maybe it's okay for there to be places on the earth where high sped internet is not available?

Unless there was a flaw in the mirrors they all use. I’m not saying this is so, but the software developer in me would immediately try to figure out what was wrong with the compone…

What are you on about? :) Give Sidebery a try. The king of all tree-style tab browsers and the #1 reason I won't move away from Firefox.

Just get your friends to wear them too.

Calling this out as the primary reason HN is not social media. Forums existed for years before social media was ever a thing. HN is indistinguishable from a forum in the early 2000…

Sorry, wrong comment

Perhaps knowing a human with talent worked on it, putting some small part of themselves and their lived experience into the music has value to them? If so, then their actions make …

I hope you're right but I think you're dead wrong. Social media has not only affected the mental health of millions of people negatively, it has brought about social, political and…

Humans used to get on ships and sail away, perhaps never to be heard from again. We can absolutely survive several minutes of confusion around eating arrangements. "Text me when yo…

Why hasn't this happened?

Your kids not walking there has everything to do with street design. Check out Not Just Bikes on YouTube for why and how.

Not only am I sure there isn't one, I'm sure there will never be one. That might reduce profits for Amazon slightly.

The blend of classical and techno must come from the techno side. I remember many years ago listening to CBC Radio as they breathlessly talked about some avant garde classical piec…

I have not addressed it in the call, expecting the interviewee to just say "no I'm not!" I have asked my HR department to state clearly that any usage of AI during an interview is …

I would argue the second instance (pandemic) was much more nearly what a good government should do than the first one

As an interviewer who does all his interviews himself, I experience this already. I'll ask questions and candidates will answer them reading from chat gpt output. It's very frustra…

Any solution that requires a bunch of independent actors to go against their best interests will certainly fail. You need to find another option
