Sure, NYT is an easy one, but if you try some more "expensive" (they really do not enjoy your free read) like Bloomberg the your RSS feed will keep small.

The main problem I found with RSS in these days is the lack of access to they. I want access the RSS of NYT, where I find it? I want X blog, where? After the web migrated from RSS to paywalls, I have no option to just choice some news webs/blogs and focus on that.
Re:Work is work, in which returns diminish (2020) on Tuesday September 13, 2022 @05:59AM (#32822333)
Was not the point, just saying is essential to understand any change on how we work is a change of how we do things for 200,000 years.

We can discuss if we agree/disagree, but something about this post is non-debatable: any change in the way of work is trying to innovate in a 200,000 years "business", we should take this more serious.

Maybe, remote work is a first step? we have been working side by side (at the same place) for a lot of time, and this change is the first one impact one of the most important metric: productivity.

There is a lot of examples of this, and in economics has a colloquial term: cobra effect -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perverse_incentive

When Englad still domain India, there was a lot of cobra there, that means a problem for the English people. The solution: pay directly to anyone who brings a dead cobra. The result: people raised cobras to kill them and get paid for that.

Always surprise me the incapability of some countries/governments of think in long term.

I think Periscope is the way of Twitter to counteract Meerkat. They have fear to Meerkat make the same that Instagram made with the photos.

Re:Ask HN:Why should I read science fiction? on Saturday December 14, 2013 @11:43PM (#6908412)
I think science fiction is not only fantasy plus science, I think, this type of books is an open door to the future, is the type of books that open your mind to think about the future. Also, when you read old science fiction books, you realize you are in the future, this is the future.
