Do you, by chance, write cheap adventure stories for a living? Cause this sounds like something I read a few months ago. A pretty silly plan.

You are missing the central point of the Walkie-Talkie and Disney-Concert-Hall controversies. These are Frank-Gehry(-style) buildings, and in those roughly half of all surfaces is a concave and half is a convex mirror. THIS concentration to

With an express train from the easternmost stop to the westernmost stop, zero in-between stops... possible, but not very practicable.

You are right. And I do understand why he does it. I can see his side. But I sit on the other side. I hate it and will tell everyone how much I hate it. --- Edit: Or, if you prefer, in market terms: Because I am not alone, there is a market

I want to very much second excluding Veritasium. Whenever he talked about something I was knowledgeable in, he made mistakes. This combined with branding himself as 'the element of truth' and the increasing over-clickbaity titles

Think about how the hosts.txt file was originally used before the DNS. It's closer to that (with a lot of extra sophistication and 40+ year learning)

There is another consideration that people on YouTube ignore, but Apple doesn't. You don't want the underside of the computer to reach substantially over 40deg for a considerable amount of time. This is because some people put the

The way this is described it reminds me of the <details> and <summary> tags in HTML, most often used for spoilers. But I am not sure if I understood it correctly. This might be more for different level of comprehension (eli5?).

Why is this titled "Advice for New Developers"? The actual blog post is called "The best investment". A proper title for HN, imo, would be "A personal fitness trainer is the best investment". I wouldn't ha

I had the same problem, was a size cutoff caused by me setting the scaling to 200% or something. Once I reset scaling, date is back. Hope it is that easy for you, and it isn't a bigger problem.

Neuro-scientists and cognitive scientists and developmental psychologists and linguists spent the last century, give or take, looking at this question. The most basic, most broken down, most simplified answer is what is called "poverty
