The main driver for the ascension of Uber is that everybody hates taxis and taxi drivers. I don't care if it's more expensive or not, I don't want to deal ever again with taxi drivers that are not accountable for their bad service.

Citing Las Casas as if it were a historically valid source is a great way of loking like a fool.

I ll watch it tomorrow

What makes Julia so fast?

From the post:

(...)we offer Vivaldi Translate, a built-in, privacy-friendly translation feature, powered by Lingvanex and hosted by Vivaldi, keeping translations out of the reach of companies like Google or Microsoft.

Now I'm supposed to trust Vivaldi instead of Google or MS... Stopped reading right there.

The article reads like CCP propaganda.

For someone used to Linux, what are the selling points of NetBSD?

Where they sued to oblivion or something?

I am afraid this is far more common. At least Brazil, Spain and the UK are exactly like that, if not worse.

That's three volumes... Anything shorter you can recommend?

Can you successfully mine bitcoin with one computer these days?

Could you elaborate on this? How do you create your own VPN on aws (or any other server)?

Any recommended alternatives?

Was it covid?

Good riddance. Google is a nuisance and one of the worst offenders in the global offensive against privacy. Anyone remember the "Don't be evil" thing?

Great news for China: a EU/US trade war.

I always leave a broken test so on the next day, when I run my tests, I know exactly what to do next

Why post something hidden behind a paywall?

Using HTMl & CSS for your GUI is orthogonal with collaboration. It's just a hack that people accept

In Spain, there have been clear signs that mild cases of covid-19 where misdiagnosed as flu during January 2020, specially among children.

No, not the UK

I agree this is vital and fascinating, but maybe we should get the Elephant out of the danger zone.

I wonder if we'll ever bring back Neanderthals too.

Why don't you sell it for profit? ;-) Lulu or Kindle if you don't want to deal with editors.

Why not just form an international coalition, invade and free, once and for all, the Korean people from that horror? It's gotta be the most justified military intervention in History.

Yes, besides a funny hairdo, the crazy in chief has a few nuclear fire crackers. Just destroy those installations before sending the troops.

Any promo codes for Hacker News denizens? :-)

That's cool, but I think they should really be working on a clojure IDE. It's the only Lisp that seems to be going anywhere.

This is quite horrible. I wish they would leave Objective C alone.
