The transmitters would get seized often but the pirates would just buy more equipment and setup elsewhere
Isn't the point that these agents were supposed to be sandboxed. It makes no sense to give them an official channel
or maybe 5.1 was an older checkpoint and has more quantization
How about TWPKAT? It looks a bit like twat
What is this?
I don't fancy logging into some random website without knowing what it does first.
Hmmm I tried using Arc and I just don't like it. The sidebar feels really cluttered and unnatural. I like having the full width of my screen.
I feel like Arc gives me OCD about organising my spaces and folders etc. I'm happier to just close chrome when I get to like 15 tabs and start again.
Having a VGA port is such a waste of space
What does interrupting Windows mean? Like keeping windows running while you install Linux?

from the hyperacusiscentral.org dept.
I became disabled after a music festival last year. The music was too loud and something broke in my ear.
Now every sound hurts me, my voice is far too painful, going for a walk outside is too painful. Basically I can't do anything but sit in a silent room and browse the internet.
Pain hyperacusis sucks. I wish I'd been more careful with my hearing.
This needs more attention, really crazy
Please stop, bitcoin is a waste of electricity, it has no economic value. Its cancerous. Just make hydrogen or some other storable material.
The bots are in production and live.
The warehouse still needs lots of staff but less than a supermarket
Is there some kind of bias, I kept being sent to Croatia
Maybe Elon has launched a DDOS
Or they want their citizens to avoid investing in a ponzi scheme which steals their hard earned cash?
> The question should be, does Bitcoin help the real world economy?
That's a fine question too and I would argue that it doesn't help the real world economy. It just consumes energy for 0 utility except to facilitate ponzi schemes and money laundering
I believe Taleb's timeline is not as long term as the heat death of the universe or end of civilisation.
He's saying that a rational market should value bitcoin at 0 because it has 0 utility. If I buy shares in Walmart I receive a dividend, if I buy shares in Amazon I know they will do share buy backs with their profits and hence increase the value of my investment.
Bitcoin has zero value or utility for me, unless I can sell it to someone else before it eventually goes to 0.
There's a difference between value today and expected value in the future. A loaf of bread has value today but I wouldn't stockpile fresh bread because I know it quickly loses value
Have you tried twitter lists?
Also doesn't following 5k people make your timeline way too chaotic?
I'm in the UK and covid is over and I don't think anyone will ever accept anymore restrictions
We've just got to live with it now, fatality rates are below that of seasonal flu

from the ask-hn dept.
I've found WFH tech to be really isolating and boring. Even with a few days in the office a week, it feels lacking. I miss pair programming and seeing people in person daily.Are there any ways to look for tech jobs which are more social and have more in person time?I've considered going into hardware so I have to be physically present in a lab with other people, but is there another way?
You have been blessed with a happy life then, feel glad you don't understand the appeal of suicide
Any one know of any datasets for pavement/sidewalk based robots?
When did you last order with Ocado?
There are lots of ways to do "Mindfulness and meditation" so I'm not surprised.
I've always found group meditations to be the most beneficial for me while solo meditations are harder and less likely for me to feel better afterwards (although I've had some really good ones)
Putting carbon into the atmosphere much easier than removing it, I don't see how this could ever happen
Sorry to hear you guys haven't had lunch for so long
