> So apparently the problem is not fully solved. You are completely right. The problem of poor, dirty, violent, urban-youth infested communities is not fully solved.

"Traffic is such a waste of life" Fully-autonomous driving can mitigate this; you will still be commuting, but with an added benefit of being hands-free (to check your e-mails, to …

I got just a little further than you, until I reached "women make the best mathematicians" where I instantly ALT-F4'd Google Chrome and added 'medium.com' to a permanent blacklist.…

I glimpsed at the content for 30 seconds. This does not look anything like a computer science education: "Pencil Code", "Blockly", "Coding Adventures", "Craft Small Projects in HTM…

Early-mid 2000's kid here. I roamed without second thoughts: Explored forests, cities, trespassed on forsaken enchanted lands and everything in between. I admit there has been star…

I do not know what is so difficult about not eating sugar. If "without sugar" means no added artificial sweetener or added sugar (as according to this article) then I have not cons…

Explain to me what you think the key differences are between a competent and incompetent programmer; specifically, in terms of particular skillsets.

If you perceive it as uncivil then you've perceived it clearly (but only by 95%) Let my specify once more: I ran the webpage against a Cntrl-F find function passing the parameter "…

I Cntrl-F'd the article, keyword: "woman" 2 matches. Instantly closed the page.

Every life extension discussion derails into debates about foreverness; and therein lies the problem: humans of all backgrounds (even today) are dropping dead of health problems at…

To sum up everything in this thread: Life becomes less appealing as you get older. You lose friends because "career" and "kids" and "my wife would not agree to this". The novelty a…

How is this different than Whonix? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whonix

Good nationalism would have been forbidding rich Chinese investors from pricing-out average everyday Canadians from their own housing market, in the very first place. Drastic, calc…

I laugh every time I see mention of "gifted" children on HackerNews; not because these threads are always ripe with nerds stroking their penis, but because "gifted" is a conceited …

If Angela Merkel had it her way with search engine algorithms, every news source within the first 50 pages of Google.com would paint Germany in a positive-light (especially her bar…

Good news for people like me.

How resilient will the Hyperloop be against terrorist attacks? It is situated above ground. This means the tubing is exposed to all and everyone. In other words, it is vulnerable t…

Should we perhaps hypothesize the motive of this simulation, if any? Death seems to be a very important focal point: All living organisms are condemned to their aging bodies, event…

Further proves my point: Antibiotic resistance. 300 million projected to be dead by 2050. Tit for tat. https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/antimicrobial-resistance... https://www.t…

Not surprising. Trying to overcome faulty genetics with medication is a double edged sword. You are almost always trading one issue for another, tit for tat. Prostate cancer medica…

Could this perhaps just be a rationalization for some to play video games under a doctrine of "I'm getting smarter" when in turn it's just mindless consumption of media? I am all f…

Nutritional information is laughably conflicting. Example: Eat meat, it's essential! Don't eat meat, it will sky rocket your cholesterol! Buy organic, it is much healthier! Organic…

This is now a thread about lucid dreams and the galantamine/choline stack. Galantamine is marketed as an Alzheimer treatment, and although me and others are weary of pharmaceutical…

"Gifted children" is just a special buzzword to make parents feel good about their high-functioning-autism offspring. That's how it worked here in Canada. My first encounter with s…

Obesity as the end all be all measure of health is flawed and out-dated. The real damage is being done silently, ie. cell damage, DNA damage, telomere shortening, endocrine disrupt…
