The HN audience is ripe for this kind of knowledge.

Um, probably because Twitter is a place where many people go to read stuff. The author probably likes it when people read their writing.

I obviously don't know you, but based off that comment, I think you're missing the forest for the trees and I'd venture to guess that it's because you've never experienced something like DMT. There are definitely le

I think the point they were making was that regardless of how you feel emotionally about giving up specific information, it has no effect on whether a country allows you to enter. So go ahead and do only what you feel is "acceptable&qu

I've recently launched a project and don't know any successful entrepreneurs to talk to. If you'd like to dabble in coaching, please send me a message at thankeeww at gmail.

Touché. I figured since I didn't call ythl a dunce directly that I wasn't being overly harsh, but your comment is much more eloquent than mine and has effectively reminded me that one can attract more bees with honey than with vin

Ah, I see. According to you, the world needs laws on the books to keep dunces from harming themselves in all the different ways possible. Ythl, I don't mean to scare you, but did you know you can die from drinking too much water? And c

My questioning the long term safety of GMO's is logical though. Peer reviewed studies on the topic just plain don't address the very real possibility that GMO's can have very harmful effects 20, 30, or 50+ years down the road

Really? To me, the thing that is most discouraging about HN is the rampant closed mindedness. For example, anyone who questions the long term safety of genetically modifying organisms and eating them, will always be downvoted to oblivion.

Those are not really side-effects of Naloxone, they are side-effects of reversing the effect of opiates. So if an addict were to quit an opiate addiction cold turkey, they would experience some (or very rarely, all) of the effects you liste

My brain works the opposite way, so I would caution against this. I don't truly learn until I actually start doing.

No, you don't get it, how else are people supposed to exchange ideas and make the synergy and lots of the serendipity if they aren't thrown into a room with a bunch of cafeteria tables? It's not like people have other ways of

I think it is more like a bank making a diagram of the lock used on each customer's safety deposit box and posting that up on the internet. I don't see any good reason to put everyone's public key out in the open. Is there an

Yeah, there have been a couple comments in this thread with this kind of viewpoint; "How will I go on in life after all the opportunity cost of not getting into [insert high prestige school]". I feel so sad for anyone that has suc

Based on your response, I can't tell if you are one of those obnoxious alpha types that just hasn't been able to use it to get money out of an investor, or if you really are just some guy on the internet trying to humble brag abou

As junto noted, you are using a pre-built theme. In light of that, what is the reason for your post? You would like to know if people like the theme that someone else built, and you used?

Although I'm not certain what you're implying by "corrected", I hadn't ever heard that phrase about iron before. Thanks, I like it.

Weird. My comment must have been in close enough proximity to andybak's comment that "they" must have downvoted me when they meant to downvote him.

by marcos123 12y ago
So andybak, congratulations on clinging to a sweet sounding one-liner, but let's think a little more about it. So anytime something bad happens to a person (their wallet or phone is stolen, or their family dog is killed), and the victi

No, you just shouldn't accept paypal. As k3oni states, it doesn't matter how much money you have in your paypal account. When a chargeback happens paypal will take whatever small amount of money you do have in there, and your acco

I'm pretty sure they made that comment under the assumption that your job offer was in SF. That was the impression I got reading your original comment as well. Have you considered living in one of the many cities on the peninsula that

For the record, as someone who has read a few articles about the guy, seen a couple pictures, and in all honesty was leaning more towards not liking him more than I do, this news has excavated a nice, temporary soft spot in my heart for th
