Re:DuckDuckGo Raises $10M on Wednesday August 29, 2018 @02:51AM (#17866221)
I think either Google will awe us again and become stronger or duckduckgo will figure out a way to finally give us better search results.

The part I found most enjoyable was the fact that DARPA says the British love Gremlins, while Americans made them into horror icons.
I just disable javascript to read full articles from news places like this that force subscriptions.

or maybe I just dont understand why people would subscribe digitally? Are there different articles?

I think people have moved away from what the internet is supposed to be, which is a way to share information, not force people to pay for information :/

It's in the app layer, we dont need a "fifth" layer.
Re:Too many prisons make people worse on Saturday May 27, 2017 @12:05PM (#14430626)
The USA has "boys homes" that do this. As a child, I attended one such place where we all had to grow our own vegetables, to this day I can grow vegetables.

Privatized prisons (in the USA) are money makers, holding mostly low to medium risk offenders, you can even buy shares on the stock market.

With more police on patrol there will be less crime. Spend less money on prisons and more money on local police force.

Why not just a webcam and a touch screen? Seems like it won't last, the pricing is outrageous.

Re:Show HN: 15-question programming quiz with answers on Tuesday May 23, 2017 @03:57PM (#14404695)
its a python quiz.
I do not think this study can prove that carbonated soda causes weight gain, let alone obesity. People (and apparently mice) are not all "built" the same. Obese people need more exercise (or just plain movement of the body) than those who have less weight on their bodies, "it's not rocket science".

Sincerely, common sense.

Re:Teacher spends two days as a student (2014) on Tuesday May 09, 2017 @11:41AM (#14300954)
Add metal detectors, wands, and barbed wire to the mix and you'll really know what it's like for some inner city high school kids (like myself once upon a time). Kids today have more time away from school than I did, I had more time away from school than my parents did, this article wasn't much of an eye opener, sorry.

Personally, high school is a waste, a transition period for students to truly find what they want out of life; in my opinion.

been happening for years...
