what is SoMe?

It's the tracking part here that's hard. How do you know that the FB/IG ad was the first time the converting user heard of your product, or that it was the deciding factor? If you literally have no other way of discovering your product than this works, but it's easy for FB/IG to show your ad to users who were already going to convert and claim the conversion...

Assuming this question is in good faith:

I think* it has to do with not wanting to say something as 100% truth without knowing it's 100% true. Which can be interpreted as weakness/insecurity among more business/marketing minded folks.

*see my own usage of "I think"

Interesting quote, but if I'm not missing anything this link is just a bit shortsighted as proof right? If it's just the pic+names.

Your analogies are things that you use a large % of the time, almost any second. Whereas I've been programming for years, and never wrote a binary search (I think?), but perhaps I don't qualify as literate?

I think writing an if-statement would be closer to your analogies.

Your link goes to this current page, I assumed you were linking to an article about that anecdote.

Nice experiment! Would be nice to see some example text in the end..

Might be because it's hard to reverse such a process if needed?

For me the sweating would make this prohibitive in most case

This resonates greatly with me, never thought about it this way, thanks!

Isn't that always subjective? Pointless with regard to what goals/standards?

Is lying in the grass pointless?

is the last book you mention "The Savage Truth on Money - Terry Savage"?

The first is by Pink?

Do you mean just before bed, or in general during the day?

Do you also provide advise on how to register?

There are also a lot of thresholds that might apply to your situation. More rules to look up, but could simplify it to having less administration if your revenue is under a couple K's

Your accountant is not going to build a system for you that verifies VAT IDs and can automatically calculate the tax % on check out I think?

Link doesn't work for me, https://www.golfforecast.co.uk seems better

You could argue that what's exploited is the fact that there is a country with a minimum wage of $8, and another with a median of $1.50 in your example. So if you're Tim Ferriss raised in the first country it works, but in the second it doesn't (if you don't find an even cheaper country).

The luck/unequality is in that what's not much money for you, is a lot of money for some-one else.

Do I understand correctly if you keep the middle portion? You remove both the water, and what settles immediately? I have a hard time visualizing.

1) Since many of these algorithms need to run on standalone hardware devices, many are still limited in power by their chips (and the economics). Amount of voices, oversampling, amount of presets, sound banks, samples can increase the quality of many devices. And many purely pc based electronic compositions also run into CPU/RAM limitations. Perhaps with endless money you don't run into this too quickly, but allowing more "bedroom producers" more power will surely breed new musical ideas

2) in my opinions there it is hard to overstate how much new inspiration can come from work on new UX/workflow/control ideas. Many of which will come at a cost of more CPU as you move away from 1 to 1 mapping from the DSP algorithms.

This will surely create lots of cases of athletes just crossing the border of what the body can take. I'd expect the show would become more about mishaps, than extreme performance.

Must definitely have a target audience, but not me.

Interesting, and funny sounding, although apart from not translating, I don't really know a better translation for root in this context?

To clarify: lisp as in speech impediment, we don't have our own word for the programming language

Quite a bluff to pull: saying your starting early when you don't, when it's so easy to fall through. Does this actually happen?

Interesting train of thought.

Perhaps it's good to know that the x axis (from left to right) is temporal. So for someone/something to translate this to an image with some special sense would also necessitate some memory part.

With a big fantasy you could continue your hypothesis by comparing it to describing an object you see with words by telling the height of the outline from left to right.

This is perhaps why Magic the Gathering is a better metaphore for life than Poker, which also has the elements above, but not this one.

Although with poker you have the house that always wins...

I Have a this too and it can feel like I'm broken for that, as it's the exact opposite of people who feel energized from exercise. I'm not in bad shape at all but even a 1hr walk takes some time to be back to where I can focus on work most of the time. No solution yet sadly, apart from doing it in the evening when you don't need to do anything afterwards.

I think the point is that the US is so big that you don't to reach the neighbors

the likely cause of similarity is the "classic" users browse (and vote based on) the regular front page

Meta enough this post was #1 for me on HN, making it the biggest drop of between regular and Classic HN.
