neat, thanks for your reply!

Ask HN: Best personal website hosting service?

There are a couple of options:- Github Pages - Static Website on personal domain - Wordpress/BloggerIt'll be a text-only static website. Does having your own domain name really matter? Do people take your work more seriously after that? All other options are free, and Github Pages is exactly the same as a static website on a personal domain except it's free.I'm a student, if that's relevant.

In five years, people will be able to watch amazon content on large screens whenever they wish and manybe amazon will air new episodes on a large screen after you verify that you are a prime subscriber or something. I see poeple living in thessse theatres.

Brilliant.

Right. Also the illumination is at the bottom of the screen and hence indirect, whihc might reduce it further.

>You can't develop myopia or hyperopia after your eyes/skull/orbital muscles are done growing. Do you have a source for that?

Would the inverse also be true?

Re:A newcomer’s (angry) guide to R on Thursday June 14, 2018 @02:34AM (#17309766)
This is really stupid. Language decisions coming from a background native to them are always superior. This isn't a matter of "all opinions are equal". They never are. R is horrendous, plain and simple.
Many would confuse a "lisp" to the language. It's HN anyway.
