I've heard the term jaywalking a few times (with a dispiseful tone) and looked it up now. the concept doesnt even make sense to me. here the 'weaker' have precedence over the 'stronger'. plus there's always the 'vertrauensgrundsatz' (principle of reliance) that states that you have to rely on others to behave correct (except children), but as soon as they give you a sign that this might not be the case it's _your_ duty to compensate. man I'm glad not to live in the land of the free.....

seems like they are advertising a scraping service -> "Want to get the data yourself?"
daef··on Samsung Unveils 15.6-Inch Ultra-HD OLED Display for Laptops
I'm really annoyed with my 13r3s OLED screen - the red pixels are much faster to illuminate from zero to little compared to the blue - which themselves are faster than the green pixels. this leads to a reddish/magenta smear on the leading edge when something gray moves on black background.

same stuff that guy over there is complaining about: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/alienware-13r3-oled-...

daef··on Why Design Thinking Works
I've quit smoking involuntarily thanks to vaping: A friend told me to try vaping since he thought I might enjoy the 'manual part' (wrapping coils, mixing liquids).

After 2 weeks of vaping I wanted to smoke a cig again. It tasted so awful that I instantly stopped smoking cigarettes and continued vaping (I still never intended to stop consuming nicotine, but the positive effects of not smoking were showing pretty immediately)

My coils drifted into the subohm range pretty fast, mechmods and 100W+ boxes was what I needed to produce cubic meters of vape. But upping the volume of vaped liquid allowed me to reduce the relative nicotine contents (improving the taste of the liquid further) up to the point where I started asking myself whom for I'm consuming nicotine.

Stopping to vape was pretty easy at that point.

Never looked back.

ahahahaAHAHAhahaha...

    To prevent reading from continuing indefinitely, each packet should end with STOP followed by a large number of right parentheses. An unpaired right parenthesis will cause a read error and terminate reading.

    STOP )))))))))))))))))

daef··on Ask HN: What was the best decision you made in your career?

daef··on New search-by-image method on Bing.com
there were some sites like this. I clearly remember googlegooglegooglegoogle.com that initially let you google in 4 frames, followed by a herd of clones where you could choose how many frames and which search engines to use where. and then there was something like googlevsbing.com that used 2 frames, left and right plus had synchronized scrolling afair. where are they all gone? this internet thing forgets its features faster than me it seems.
