is gmail a paid service?
I donot want them under dressed too. But calling kids who have access to good (probably the best?) education and very good food, poor is unacceptable to me. May be its just me.
Its a misnomer to say British kids live in poverty. Poverty is living without access to food and education. these are guaranteed for them. If they are worried of going under dressed to school then that is not poverty.

The statistics on 'how many HighBlood pressure patients did not face heart attack' important as well?
your last line sums it. most rich/powerful have others to deal with UX. those products do not improve in UX.
The post is probably written by a non-rich who does not know but suspect that there is something? may be there is that we do not know now? ;)
Re:Ask HN: Physics PhD at Stanford or Berkeley on Monday February 10, 2025 @05:25PM (#43006086)
lol. true.

Definitely elated at the offers, but the offers are for climbing the tallest peaks there exists.

Ask HN: Physics PhD at Stanford or Berkeley

What should one consider while signing up for a Physics PhD program, with an focus on experimental Quantum/Molecular optics, program at either university if both of them offer?I understand there are many factors to take into account when choosing a school for research (advisor, research fit and funding to name a few), but these are on the individual.Any Physicists on HN?

We do not know who invented zero. Or who identified earth to be a sphere. Or who wrote the sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8 ... . We just pick a name and associate them to our liking.

So when another colonizer comes up, we will have newer people associated with these. Hope it does not happen. But history does say so.

offset is what its name suggests. sometimes its ok if a company innovates or pays money to others to innovate.
f*k... Oh. we dont have to any more. :)
Re:It’s Time to Embrace Slow Productivity on Friday May 19, 2023 @07:24PM (#36007943)
it is really odd to only discuss long term plans in a meeting.

Meetings help individuals present their idea/code and reviewer to critically/loudly think about the solutions. If that does not happen, thinking happening offline is not likely.

Do we need to find a blemish in something before enjoying its beauty/magnanimity/magnificence? :)
Re:Nalanda: The university that changed the world on Monday March 06, 2023 @03:38PM (#35047247)
'could be' many things. :) But what centrists should do is research and allow research to happen. Not silence. rewriting history is not shameful.
Re:Nalanda: The university that changed the world on Monday March 06, 2023 @03:17PM (#35046978)
that is what most want us to believe or argue about. :)
Re:Nalanda: The university that changed the world on Monday March 06, 2023 @03:16PM (#35046970)
everything is propaganda. Including painting nationalists as those behind these articles. :)

Unfortunately no one wants to research because many tame any research as rightwing propaganda.

No research has been done as to how an 80ton stone was moved 100s of km and lifted 20 stories up to build temples for example.

Re:We haven’t killed 90% of all plankton on Tuesday July 19, 2022 @12:50PM (#32154487)
The author of this paper finally states: " Dryden and his co-authors do identify atmospheric CO2 as the driver of ocean acidification, which they warn will result in the loss of 80–90 percent of all marine life by 2045." Which essentially negates his own claim that the other article is rubbish. The current article is more rubbish than the original that author wants to critique.
