To build on this:

k is a bit like APL, but more concerned with lists rather than multi-dimensional arrays. It uses normal symbols that are easily accessible on your keyboard like + and !, but they are seriously overloaded.

q is built on top of k, and take all the monadic overloads of the operators and gives them a name.

So instead of writing

  !5

to get a list of the first 5 integers, you write

  til 5

This is sort of what the original comment is getting at (I think)

This is insane.

I've been using old.reddit.com (via DuckDuckGos !sro bang) for a while now, but this is so much better.

It's incredible how much better/faster/easier to use this is than the standard mobile site. What are modern web devs smoking?

100%, but you missed FUN.

On another note, Ran Prieur has some interesting thoughts on bikes as a mode of transport.

What a fascinating post, thanks for sharing. It's great to get a look behind the curtain!

Every time I read articles like this I lose faith in capitalism a little bit.

The oil industry knew about about green house gases for decades, the tobacco industry knew about lung cancer, and the sugar industry tried to blame fat in foods. And now this?

It's hard to dispute that capitalism has given us some amazing goodies (Disney, iPhone, instant noodles), but on balance I think it might be a net negative.

It feels like the incentives are all wrong. How can we trust the solutions they give us, when the solutions are pushed through for profit?

It definitely helps living in a city as dense as new york...
