Holy hell

Clubhouse chats can have anyone join the audience.

This work is completely derivative of Yves Klein's Zone de Sensibilité Picturale Immatérielle from 1959.

> The work involved the sale of documentation of ownership of empty space (the Immaterial Zone), taking the form of a receipt, in exchange for gold; if the buyer wished, the piece could then be completed in an elaborate ritual in which the buyer would burn the receipt, and Klein would throw half of the gold into the Seine.

Also in the article:

> The hearing did not answer a crucial question: Why San Francisco? If the problem stems in part from a change in California law, why aren’t other cities in the state seeing similar spikes in shoplifting?

I didn't realize they were private. It's crazy to me that "start-ups" are sponsoring NBA teams: https://www.nba.com/clippers/bumble-and-la-clippers-announce...

That quote came from a person who bought the fake paintings, so take it with a grain of salt. It sounds like they're deflecting questions about their credentials to sell art.

Workers need better protection from the government to make any management union busting costly.

I went to the Louvre in 2012, and I was able to walk up the Mona Lisa without a queue. I and a few others admired it for several uninterrupted minutes. I took a selfie and left. It was a very special moment.

I think they should do a reservation or lottery system to preserve the opportunity for intimacy. Make sure you actually get to spend time with work. Otherwise if you are only giving people 30 seconds (as the article states), you are encouraging the just-take-a-selfie-and-leave attitude.

I've definitely heard both sides of this, so I'm not sure. A lot of the history of the release has been retconned by Nike to improve its legacy

This is not true. The original AJ1s did not sell well and were often discounted. They were cheap and used by skateboarders because of that. The Virgil AJ1s have the red plastic tag attached to them as a reference to that era (the red plastic tag is how retailers would denote a "sale" item).

I don't think this has anything to do with Damore. I think people are frustrated with the way technology has infiltrated their lives, and how they have no control over it. Many people want tighter regulation of the tech companies + the view of technology workers as the new yuppies makes tech an easy target.

These numbers are wild. Why doesn't this happen more often in the US?

The difference between all those and stamps is that the former offers an experience. UO sells a lifestyle, and objects like stamps don't convey a particularly exciting narrative within that.

Ultimately, this is the result of a lack of accountability by the police to the people.

Call your representatives and demand that police make information such as the number of stops, arrests, and reasons for cause public. You'd be surprised at how much resistance you will encounter when trying to find these numbers.

Some great documentaries about this:

- That Sugar Film

- Fed Up (on netflix)

- Sugar Coated (on netflix)

There was a reality-show about it once called "Startup U": https://freeform.go.com/shows/startup-u

It seems like you think art has no "intellectualism". IG is a great way to see contemporary fashion and art around the world in real time.

I live in NYC, and at this point I rarely use Uber. This is one more reason not to.

When I call an Uber, I have to wait N minutes for the car to come. If I want a cab, I step outside my apartment and flag one down. Granted, I live in downtown, so that wouldn't work as well in the other boroughs.

Uber also surges. Yellow cabs are always the same price. It's usually cheaper than Uber.

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like he is headbanging while holding an electric guitar?

I submitted this yesterday. I thought HN didn't allow recently submitted articles?

As a 20-something, does anyone have any advice me for or know of resources where I can learn about financial management?
