I loved Fravias pages and searchlores. Is there anything else like it?

That's funny but no, like this: https://www.the-odin.com/diy-crispr-kit/

not satire :)

Thanks for these.

I have realised that I am perfectly average at recognising faces getting 79% on the bbk test and 10 out of 14 on greenwich, however I don't recognise people that well. I hadn't realised there is a difference.

Anybody come across this?

Possibly because it was a sysadmin that leaked it. It has to be decrypted at some point for people to see it.

I was at a junction in Spain and I had no idea what to do. It was the most hectic thing in the world, you just sort of went and hoped.

I guess its simialr to some roundabouts in London.

I have no idea how an AV would handle that(unless they were all AVs at the junction)

Yeah my Hisense smarttv is android 4.2 and it will never get upgraded. I am pi$$ed - mainly because it didnt occur to me, I had it in my head that I could upgrade it or their might be a community scene but not for something this obscure.

Obviously I do too. That was funny :).

I am not in the states and I can't get most of the services. I wish they would at least do regional podcasting advertising. A startup opportunity :)

Masters is for when Bunnings is too busy.

How about balloon boy? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balloon_boy_hoax I am a parent and I wouldn't do this but it doesn't mean others wouldn't.

Is it dark intentions when the nature of a company is to make as much money as possible? The banks want house/land prices to go up so that they can charge one as much in interest as they can get from one's income, whilst making money on any land/property capital appreciation that they have. This is just capitalism surely.

My solution - nationalise the mortgage lenders and cap the mortgage to a 3 * multiplier of annual earnings.

Abstruse - Big in the early 1800s according to the Google Ngram Viewer. https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?year_start=1800&year_e...

The potential for having a go in someone elses professional/semi pro space sounds wonderful. I can imagine 3d printers,photo and video editing, well tooled workshops etc..

You have to read the island http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_%28Huxley_novel%29

The utopian version.

". And it's really hard to find good hired workers to help out, because nowadays no one wants to do strenuous physical labor for relatively low pay" I wonder why :)

There was a professor who lost weight on the twinkie diet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinkie#Twinkie_diet.

He just ate less calories than he needed.

Apparently we know who Jack the ripper is now. http://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/was-it-aaron-kos...

He is Aaron Kosminski according to DNA probably.

I believe all you need is several mini coopers.

Calibre converts mobi to epub for nothing. http://calibre-ebook.com/ Disclaimer: I love calibre :)

I don't think it will necessarily work because some cracker has just probably added that to their personal dictionary(if they didn't before). It might work if you add 3.14159627 to it or a number/symbol set of your choice. I guess length is fairly key as well.

What is Provigil? (I am in Australia) Is it like dexedrine or something?

how sad - he handed me my degree when I graduated. A friend of mine felt his beard on stage :)

give me your pocket money ;)

Not in my experience with Melbourne.

Glen Waverley, Box Hill, Springvale and then the spillover. I can't get a look in. One house went for $200k over the asking price. Glen Waverley has supposedly ~25% Chinese but its a lot more in practice. There are also a lot of Indians looking in the surrounds. There aren't that many anglo people at the viewings at all.

I was talking to a mortgage broker and he said that in some cases the children were advance parties with parents money.

A lot of the estate agents are Chinese as they cater to the Chinese.

I am not a number I am a free man.

Wow - I never expected to find Freemasons on HN. Don't know why but i thought it was a) dying out and b)it was for old people. Well older than my 43 years of age :)

Its not just your intuiton the bell curve tops outs squarely in the middle of the two not with two nice peaks. I found this out looking in to Myers briggs(I think its very qustionable). People can never work out whether I am introvert or extrovert.

Is this is a US only offering? I don't want to register if it is.

Also it failed at the first hurdle for me. I don't rent or own. (I am deposit saving with in-laws)

Would be nice if someone could make an arduino/pi one :) off to hackaday to have a look. $495 is a bit steep for me.
