I'm not saying this article is wrong. I do find it interesting that it is posted just before most retailers post their quarterly earnings reports, while the sector is already severely battered with huge short volume.

Oh look, another Ethereum post. Nope, still not putting money/time here, sorry.

Can someone tell me why I'm seeing so much about ethereum on Hacker News lately? It's starting to feel like a concerted marketing push, the same way that the latest Kardashian outrage is a non-event most people don't care ab

I'm rolling my eyes and guessing there's a significant positive correlation between people that believe chiropractics is bullshit and people that believe climate change isn't real.

Well, how many people go to doctors and get no useful information or solutions to their problems? Tons. It doesn't follow that doctors are bullshit. (And I would argue that a couple hours of nominally feeling better is more than tho

I'd like to see a study of the correlation between people that believe Chiropractics is bullshit and people that believe climate change isn't real. Seriously, if you've ever been to a chiropractor for back and neck related pr

I honestly don't even want to watch this, out of spite. Whatsapp is so damn frustrating to me and the people I talk to. The microphone button is so finicky that I lose hours of my week to trashed messages. I don't know if it&#x27

As am I. I would pay a subscription fee to keep them on Apple News. That's where I read most of my news. If they aren't going to give me the option to pay them to keep using them, I'm not going to pay them, it's that

I would pay ESPN $10 a month for an ESPN streaming app that had access to all the college football games (no blackouts), alone, as long as it didn't require a cable subscription. The current ESPN streaming app is garbage, compared to

"Look at a graph of postwar obesity rates and it becomes clear that something changed after 1980. In the US, the line rises very gradually until, in the early 1980s, it takes off like an aeroplane." Not that I disagree with the pr

A lot of people switch to vaping because they're half-assing quitting. I quit smoking 10 years ago, cold turkey. You either give a shit about your health, or you don't. I don't care if I get down-voted, or appear negative.

To me, this is obvious. I find it extremely valuable to spend time making things more efficient and clear. Even if the time spent doesn't save that much time, but makes things less frustrating, it's a big win to me. There'

Anyone who's paid attention to biotech stocks in the last year or so knows that there is some very volatile movement. Anything related to thera-, pharma-, bio- has been swinging up and down wildly. I'd really like to know why it

I think it's safe to say, at least from my view, that Bootstrap is the reason for it. Bootstrap made this format easy and clean, and it works well with mobile. Websites will look like this until someone comes out with the next thing

I have thought about trying Modafinil and Adderall for those times when I just can't seem to stay on task. The results and speculation are interesting, particularly the idea that "modafinil stimulates improved performance in the

I have a good friend who works there that I talk to frequently. It is most definitely still going on. He has called me many times stating that he is miserable, that the stack-ranking, secret-pact, politics and backstabbing are still alive

I had a big difficulty using a standard mouse while walking. It was very difficult to aim correctly. I switched to a thumb-roller mouse so I could keep my palm stationary and it solved the problem completely. I bought a TrekDesk Treadmill

Obviously, I have no idea why I was rejected. If that is the case, no part of their interview tests what a lot of solid devs spend tons of their time doing in their career... solving problems. I have debugged countless problems. It'

I had nothing but good conversations. No animosity at all during the interview. That comment is post-interview analysis.

I've heard of 1 tax dodger being forced to pay in Greece, but why haven't I heard about other measure to get some of the money back from the previous corrupt government? Surely there's more that can be done there.

Horseshit. You're welcome to hire that way, but I can tell you right now, you're missing a whole class of excellent devs that put 100% of their time into the stuff they're working on at the office. I have side projects I oc

Don't compare yourself to other people. Just try to improve upon yourself. Set smaller goals, so you can feel a pattern of success and build some confidence (which you'll need with the ladies, and getting a job). A cover page o

My story is similar to this. I, too, did poorly in school. There were so many things working against me. I was constantly too tired in the mornings for my brain to function, so I missed important concepts. Or, the pace of learning was t

Do those people who see it as black and blue have color blindness of some kind? It's quite clearly brown and blue-gray to me. The eye dropper in Paint.Net says the same thing. Not sure how anyone can get black out of this.

Whiteboard coding problems are absolute garbage. I recently had a remote code problem where I was given a Visual Studio IDE (albeit minus Resharper) and absolutely killed it. If I'm going to be challenged to write code in front of you
