Would you give one to Sam, Mark, or Sundar?
Huh? No, you don't stop if it turns yellow, you yield.
Re:Contrarian view: Data centers vs. Meat on Monday March 09, 2026 @02:55PM (#47313662)
You can't eat data. Seven States have already banned lab-grown meat.
Please, they're ngmi with no fat. The unhealthy frat boy office sounds like a throwback to the early '10s. What woman would work there? They seem poised to crash and burn out.

Historical aristocracy were defined by eating meat, while their subjects ate grain. "Beef" for the Normans, "cows" raised and slaughtered by the Anglo-Saxons.

Sounds like they're sitting around eating rabbits wondering why they're starving, or just fill up on sugar when no one's looking.

Fat was demonized to push sugar. "Protein" was then pushed because you can just load up stuff like "protein bars" with sugar.

Which later republics, specifically? Who has stronger rights?

I mean, it was the world's first codified constitution, written after the world's first successful war of independence.

Which later constitutions do you grade higher? Who has stronger rights?

> "We're big believers in protein," Roy said. "It's impossible to get fat at Cluely. Nothing here has any fat."

Clueless.

What are some car interiors with good/better design to you?
Yeah CS2 was the peak to me, I started using it again maybe a year ago instead of their recent slop. Works even better with modern processors, back in the mid '00s it seemed to lag on everything but the first Mac Pro. And Adobe publicly published serial numbers when they shut down the activation servers, if you can get your hands on a copy of the install discs.
Our poor representation is an extreme outlier among OECD countries:

Nordic countries have similar representation to the U.S. in the early 1800s.

Though virtual, Colonial Americans had better representation in Parliament.

Please consider exposing where the products are actually made.

No business case for me here without country of origin labeling, and on the consumer side I only buy from online retailers that include where their products are made, e.g. officesupply.com

Re:Ask HN: Where can I see a live octopus in Maine? on Thursday August 28, 2025 @03:37PM (#45056172)
There was a giant Pacific octopus at the aquarium in Boston but it appears he passed in '21.

I'm in Maine but the last octopus I saw was in Salt Lake City.

Not seeing product country of origin info?

Why was he rushing in the dark with a roller-bag suitcase to catch the train?

To meet someone he met online who claimed multiple times to be real.

Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four still function as science fiction, Fahrenheit 451 basically captures the present.
There seems to only be a single free country left sadly.
Huxley and Bradbury did.
