What should humanity do? The big hitters are Drug addiction and Chronic Pain. I don't have a solution for drug addiction, but I can't blame our generation for not finding a solution. No generation has, and given caffeine addiction

I find it fascinating to hear tech people hate on touch screens, when this is the best-in-class feature about Tesla. Can HN be consistent? The reality is that people prefer more features than less, and buttons are not the best way. What you

Thank you for these ideas. I think I will keep things free. I have a day job that Pays great. I need to find a way to incorporate premium features.

I could convert my website to a paid model, but as you mentioned I use it for growing my career. But really, I just wanted to help people. Here is my great question, can I help more, if I charge money?

The whole identical twins separated at birth thing makes me believe environment is the only thing a parent can provide. Children do not listen to their parents for very long. A decent school, technology like a laptop, and maybe an awareness

This is precisely why I don't feel bad about asking innocent questions. If they can't handle basic conversation, it's them.

by throwayEngineer 7y ago
That's fine. Not every conversation turns into friendship. Most of mine I am trying to find similarities or learn new things. After the conversation is over, it won't matter how you opened, it won't matter if the person felt

I'd gladly accept their money. My company automates things, not creates economic or political policy.

It's really expensive to build new production facilities. These trade wars benefit the lucky rather than those willing to change. Not every company can afford to create a new manufacturing environment, Apple is Priced luxury so their m

Retaliation / MAD is a non trivial idea that leaders of nations should understand. I only worry of a cornered politician or spoiled Heir that would ignore this.

Despite marketers who told me to create custom content for Facebook and Tumblr, I focused on creating content for my website. 3 years later, I imagine it paid off. Facebook being pay to play and Tumblr never evolved to include my demographi
