Ok so I’ve analyzed this before…opportunity cost not doubling-down on India and instead getting popular advertising to women who are not entertaining to watch sorry.

So much this. Man is moving to all-mind.

Wow lethargic.

No foresight this is the future? #piglets

Oligarchy! Sad!

Love to give it to an arc client, not sure who the right person to implement this would be? Hmm…

Thanks for the pointer!
I mean click-bait par excellence. No shit it would come from0.1% of someone else. Give me something like three headed baby, you know that enquirer stuff, just class it up. Theres like 10,000 research articles published every year, there’s gotta be some damn interesting speck in this business.

Thank you for your promotion of HVDC! Especially given the context of its weak electrical reacts new compared to HVAC which mutates cellular DNA much much more! (Strong hypothesis: positive correlation of cancer rates with electrical power transmission in the 20th century…please research the epidemiology for yourselves)
Re:Ask HN: How is the tech scene in LA? on Monday July 07, 2025 @05:33PM (#44494889)
Echoing the difficulty in making friends - it is a horridly transient city with no real intentions for newcomers to establish roots - and the techies are less ambitious compared to the Bay Area or NYC. RSUs are silver-cuff links, as earning 3-5x the Guatemalan Hotel Office Manager puts one on a different cultural experience. (It’s America’s Brazil)

But weather is incontestable, food culture exciting, if you have a creative itch to scratch you can bump into a major creative professional accidentally at a bar (like a TV animator or music recording producer/engineer who works for one of the major labels) and before you know it you have a pilot episode or album you’re ready to pitch. shrugs

LAX will get you anywhere in the world non-stop and is easier to make compared to JFK.

Not completely, anyways. But I can empathize with someone who is cold at night and someone is who is a Miami Dolphins fan. Both are typically displeasant.

Pretty cool! I’m working in this space right now with architects and building owners. The science has advanced unto a certain knowing of melatonin secretion getting in the way of mental alertness under poor artificial illumination.

Hit me up if you’re interested in learning more or how I can move your office space towards a renovation on the build owners dime: [email protected]

I disagree. Immigration suppresses wages. Which suppresses native born childmaking, which fuels more government charity, erm, welfare, which dampens productivity, which erodes civil liberties.

American is not seen as promoting human rights, and to infer all immigrants are good is naive, hate to get off my porch about this. sits back down on rocking chair whistling “I Wish I was In Dixie” and widdling a hangman with the noose almost finished, just a few more threads

“It didn’t take long for me to discover that these lands were systemically stolen from the hands of the Native Americans who had stewarded them for millennia before colonialism.”

Everyone is playing by the same rules…this includes Natives and their own capturing of soil…this feigned ignorance of the progress of human sentience through capturing land and improving it is deceitful.

Love to research utilizing tFUS - much cheaper and scalable than magnets!
And thus culture is borne. #passiton
>We are not special, no more than Earth was in the geocentric worldview that led Galileo (the astronomer who suggested the Earth revolves around the Sun in the 16th and 17th centuries) to be placed under house arrest.

Wow - like this anti-humanist prejudice is totally 1993. And not in a good way.

two-photon collision experiment has permitted humans to hypothesize a simpler explanation to the beginning of the creation of more electromagnetic forces, which obviously behave differently than how are bodies were designed to receive them i.e. evolutionary biological bandwidth...

Don’t take a salary if you’re in the upper. Live for the equity as a price of the pain of solving a real world problem. Not the vanity of launch parties or bell-rings X-D //that’s meant to be an emoji
I would love this tool for on-boarding users…just inform the machine about components, to develop its own script to help the user…with the parameter being use-time as the success metric…so it can put out 100 prototypes, for UX testers to widdle down to 4-5, for pre-market A/B testing…
I’ll take a look, thanks for the effort!
This isn’t a good study. First, aren’t researchers passed treating all muscle randomly? Don’t genetics play a role, particularly with adenosine triphosphate synthesizing? And second, shouldn’t creatine have results for those working out 5+ times a week? I’d like to see a study of one ethnic group weight training 7 days a week for 12 weeks and one half taking the supplement and the other not.

Good luck with HIPAA! Maybe, unsolicited advice and all, target patient recruitment CROs first? They seem to be “edgier” than big hospicorp…peace
So is here any positive correlation with cancer survivor rates with those with low to extremely low platelets? Excluding blood cancers of course .
