> Is it effective practice to shoot targets that don't camouflage, don't maneuver, don't evade, don't shoot back? You mean, like balloons?

Thank you for your perspective, I agree on both counts. Sorry youre getting downvoted, but this is HN after all.

I would love to understand what they mean when they say "looks hollow". How can you tell what's inside by looking at the outside, short of the thing being transparent?

Someone responded that Google is terrified of being left being Microsoft. I think that's hilarious because it highlights the thing google should actually be terrified of - the fact that it has lost the capacity to innovate (same applie

This is a company that has consistently lied about everything it can. I'm thinking things like ads views, engagement etc. Basically things that no one outside the company can disprove. Now, the article says that the stock jumped on low

No, there is NO truth to the statement. The fact that the USA also does other bad things had no bearing on who's at fault in this war starting or continuing. The war started because Russia started it and continues because Russia contin

I already have L1, but my employer won't sponsor green card. What are my options?

Speaking of which, what's the move like? Can a company sponsor a green card if they like the candidate enough? How does this work? Yes, I'm one of those people you're talking about.

Studying a spacetime diagram is hard work. It's a lot easier to just say "I never understood why it's so certain" and leave it at that.

With all these lessons learned, why did they stop trying? They didn't run out of money a they never left their day job. Also... It's ok if you can't code and pay someone to do it, but why not learn the absolute minimum in ord

Is the logic for such calculations known for the US? What about the UK?

I agree the two are different in some respects; at the same time I think the idea that baseless insinuations undermine the conversation works just as well towards news articles as towards HN users.

You think I'm not in good faith - that's fine. But surely you have to concede that "I'm just asking questions" make it really easy to insinuate without directly stating, yes?

Ok for mortgage but I had in mind getting better credit cards in order to get rewards. I do want to give these companies what they want so I can get better rewards. I'm not saying the trade-off is worth it for everyone, I'm just s

Here's something I never see discussed. Assessing one's credit worthiness is naturally a data business. So, unlike for ads where companies knowing more about you has no upside, when it comes to credit the situation isn't as b

No it's not. Dictionaries are accessed by key whereas objects are accessed by field (which is a high level way of representing an offset in memory). So one of those two is at least 10x faster than the other.

Horseradish is spicy in the same sense as garlic is spicy, which is very unlike peppers.

I recently moved to the US. I hate tipping. At the same time I don't want to not tip when expected because I don't wanna become a pariah. So, my approach is I don't go to places that expect tipping. If I go somewhere for the

There's a lot of truth in what you're saying. But maybe they use calorie intake to mean "calories actually absorbed by your body", and not "calories present in the food you put into your mouth"? Just generally
