Can you quickly elaborate on the media sources where you do know what is going to happen?

In a crowd. Holding a sleeping baby. Sneaking past a security guard....

The most amazing thing is the off button. Think about it. I've never seen a website that just turns off before

Talk to me about this, "Since the nonce will already have been consumed by the first request, the second request will be rejected."

What if the nonce was still valid for the second response because your server detected that the connection was dropped for the first response?

Very valid point. We do have Nobel prizes but they are an exception to an otherwise problematic set of incentives

I agree with you in spirit but would suggest that pushing for more funding of schools, universities, basic research, and applied research is something that we should all be doing. Imagine if all the smart people tried to cure cancer instead of working in Wall Street and Adtech

What scientific return are we getting from a gram sized probe moving at 30,000 km per second?

Read enough of these articles and you start to realise _how_ the country spends so much on the military

And that's just the oddities you've noticed

Too much of anything will kill you...

Management that respects the law. Specifically the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992

Doctors are paid a lot more than schoolteachers in the UK and in my experience are respected because of their profession. I think you're totally incorrect.

Phew so glad we've fixed that war problem. Sadly defence spending is a bit like vaccinations.

I don't think we've figured out how to make good cheap mechanical actuators. I think that engineers make do with inaccurate actuators by changing the mechanism around it. Robot arms need a level of reliability that isn't cheap yet.

"The airline did not respond to a request for an update before this piece went to press" ... Would not have guessed that aircraftinteriorsinternational.com had such tight deadlines

Which is a pity because it's a very interesting article

I love IKEA instructions and construction. I honestly get a buzz from the puzzle. If I have to construct more than one of an item then I'll compete with myself on speed and efficiency.

I wanted to point out that I think the HN community collectively believe that journalism as a whole is very important for society. But that only explains why this story has been upvoted. Do you notice any other themes in the stories that you see being upvoted?

What other main themes do you see in the other upvoted stories that worry you.

Is it possible that there are fewer stories about the Hamas atrocities because there are fewer and there isn't much to discuss? I think they are unquestionably evil and should be imprisoned or killed. And that is an absolute belief that doesn't waver even if I also think Israel are doing a bad job of

But

One day sub-editors will be named and shamed for the headlines they excrete onto the world

Great lesson in bad design. Use the prime real estate in the middle of the map for something useless

Double stair Vs single stair is totally a safety issue

A positive take on this is that this is a clear pass/fail unit test on YouTube's copyright system.

Is there some principle that if everyone has heard of a company and you don't feel you have to explain who they are then they are probably a minimum of X thousand people?

People already die of diabetes due to not having enough money.

Your proposed law would increase the price of treatment and lead to more deaths.

Running a society costs money. The court system costs money. The alternative is very undesirable.

That £4.5 million per year is a small price for social stability.

In addition the digital option has a likelihood of costing a lot more

I suspect others downvoted due to the waffly style of the comment. What was that last Swift thing about? Reads like someone with multiple bees in their bonnet

Sorry a quick Google suggests your figures for EU users is very inaccurate. Do you have a source?

Makes a lot of sense to not waste heavy copper carrying one bit on information

Size of the entire universe man

Grass requires too much water sorry

"curry-eating"? Really?
