I think you're being revisionist. It's not about the people in power, it was about the media. They controlled the narrative, and they were the ones that convinced everyone of illegal bendy bananas. > The very pro-EU faction at

That might be true. And for pedantic literary critics and writers, it might be very important to use the proper length dash. For anybody else, the difference between the long dash, the longer dash, or the normal dash, is almost invisible an

My spidey sense is tingling with this post. If someone was really scared that their text would be assumed to be AI, why wouldnt you at least stop using the obvious AI-sign, i.e. the long dashes? Does the meaning of the text really change th

That reading gives the capacity to gain a better understanding, doesn't mean that all readers use it that way. The act of reading itself doesn't make the people more willing to be more understanding. Someone who cannot read could

I hate these discussions on HN. Unless we first agree on what 'good' and 'bad' are, this question is basically nonsense. In any case, what you choose to do on your own in your free time has basically no moral or ethical

I think you can compare it to watching a movie. You won't recall at the end what color jacket the character was wearing, or what the name of the victim was, but you still get the movie. Even though the jacket-color might be significant

I think constantly checking if you can recall the last paragraph is a bad habit. It not only requires mental effort, it also breaks your flow. I have ADHD myself, and I advise you to always keep reading. Don't stop and think about what

I feel for this author. Not because of his attention span, but rather that his whole life has been lived trying to conform to someone else's ideals. Can't read in middle or high school because of what peers would think. Couldn&#x2

But isn't that user error? If you want to run a program that can read your current directory's contents and possibly upload that to the cloud, would you run that in a directory with your private keys?

Is it really? Statistically I would assume that if you select a bunch of people on a certain criterium, you're going to see similarities related to that criterium among that group.

I'm a little bit less cynical about it; most police still live with the assumption that all of our allies are trustworthy. If the US says there is a credible threat, they rather exercise caution, and remove the threat. It's just

Hopefully you understand that there's an obvious selection bias you encounter when talking to folks from NL or DE in California. Ofc the people that moved will think there's a good reason for them moving. But people who live here

You're false. Research has shown that if people like sound A, they will like it even better when you play sound A louder. The change in mixing and mastering can be largely explained by people changing the way they consume it. Eg. peopl

It basically functions the same way as gambling machines. There's a hook that gets people to play, and then the game itself uses psychological techniques to keep people playing, like increasing the time between payouts (or level ups).

ah my bad. You're right, the author specifically states 'OPEN CTFs'. I think that keyword slipped my mind by the time I was at the end of the article. So my question then becomes, what will realistically be lost if CTFs move
