Wow, what a great idea. Thanks for the link!

Obviously this is completely subjective, but to me that one you linked is SO much uglier than the other. I'd hate to have that on my wrist, whereas the one this whole submission is about I'd probably buy to replace my Oura ring if

That's definitely a feasible explanation (and the one I would assume to be true for AliExpress). But there is another, slightly less evil, explanation that I know at least some companies have pushed their apps because of: the thinking

There's a bit more nuance to it though, I think, because traditionally there has been more of a firm line between humans and tools. For example, most people would agree with this line you wrote: " If I pick my phone and record a v

That does help of course, but it overlooks the fact that anxiety can be an illogical mental health problem rather than just a logical well-founded concern. By which I mean even if the audience's reactions are completely ideal, it doesn

I think there's a certain type that you're talking about that does tend towards energy drinks like that, but it's not true in the other direction, as that type is a minority of energy drink drinkers. Just a particularly notic

I mean, there's more than enough reasons to criticise or laugh at the UK that actually exist, without mocking a country for a hypothetical of someone online that hasn't actually been proposed by any politicians or, well, anybody a

I think it depends on context. If the private subsidiary was doing semi-unrelated stuff to the goals of the non-profit, and using it to fund the non-profit, then your logic could make sense - for example if a cancer research charity owned a

Well, you don't know if they do, or if they were just capitalising the start of their sentence while not feeing that the word needs a capital letter in and of itself. (But yeah, personally I would capitalised both counties regardless o

I agree that the TV part isn't particularly great itself, but over the years I've had plenty of late nights with TV on ( not as many as with music, which would be my choice if at home) where I can remember conversations had but no

It partly depends on whether "time spent on screens" is counting time where a person's attention is primarily on the screen, or time when a screen is actively directed at a person. As a few examples from my life (I'm sur

Sorry, what do you mean by "To not own the model is not viable in 2026." I assume I'm misunderstanding you (likely my fault), because the way I read that is that you're saying nobody should currently be using models owne

Pedantic correction that doesn't change anything other than accuracy: it was reported over a year ago to be closer to 14% than 15%. https://www.theverge.com/news/627849/auto-draft But I believe since then Ant

> Life insurance doesn't pay out for suicide. This may vary by country, it isn't a subject I'm particularly familiar with, but at least in the UK that isn't true - many, I think most, life insurance policies here do

There definitely are ways that publishers could have avoided falling foul of anti-Cartel legislation (my question was about where the line is, ie if they did it legally would it actually benefit them), but... Spotify and Netflix aren't

I'm not very familiar with anti-cartel laws (in any country), but I wonder if there would be legal issues preventing publishing companies from working together in such a way even if they otherwise had wanted to? (Though even if that is

I mean, one doesn't even need to read the article to learn that the blame went to both companies - it's even in the title here on HN.

Ah, that makes sense considering a few comments back they said they're in the "Pacific Northwest"! Thanks :)

There have been quite a few punctuations proposed for indicating sarcasm, but interrobang not one of them - that (‽) is literally a combined ? and !, and is (per wikipedia) for " a question in an excited manner, expresses excitement, d

In a similar vein to cobbzilla, I have a couple of family members (and to a lesser extent myself too) who would be keen on such an app for their iOS devices if you ever need some testers for that :) (iPhones 15 Pro, 11 Pro, SE-2nd; and an i

Personally I find the formatting used by the Gutenberg one to be a lot nicer/easier to read, despite (or perhaps because of) being simpler, more plain. At least for the first few pages of content that I looked at on both versions.

Are you just sharing "this is something else on a TV program that amused me", or am I being dense in my failing to spot anything that's similar between the two situations?

Very much depends on the site - certainly there's plenty that are annoying in the way you describe, but there's also plenty (I wouldn't be surprised if either side were the majority) that will take you to the exact same conte
