jethronethro··on Drone drops electric bike to help Ukrainian soldier escape Russians
Looks to be a fairly large drone to me. An off-road ebike can weigh anywhere from 25 to 40 kg, so its payload capacity would have to be at least that.
jethronethro··on Ask HN: What if I fail to make it?
Maybe you should ask why you feel behind in your life. Behind what or whom?
jethronethro··on [dead]
Maybe the OP means Seth (as in Seth Godin)? Or maybe he thinks the Sith are wrong about something ...
jethronethro··on Ask HN: Am I Alone Here?
Considering the volume of what's posted to HN each day, I'm surprised anything gets much traction. What makes your posts stand out from others? Perhaps ponder that and tweak them to get the attention you're looking for.
jethronethro··on OpenAI hits $12B in annualized revenue, The Information reports
But how much of that is profit?
jethronethro··on Ask HN: Where is Robert X. Cringely?
You can always try contacting him: https://www.cringely.com/bout-bob/

He might even reply ...

jethronethro··on International Schools in Sholinganallur Chennai – Campus K International
Spam, spam, spam, spam. Moderators, can you please delete this post?
jethronethro··on Ask HN: Should HN have a "Limited Offers" tab where posts can be deleted?
Should? No. Will? I'm going to hazard a guess and say definitely not.
jethronethro··on The Cult of AI
Any examples to back up those points (multiple for each, from multiple sources preferably)? And, yes, I'm an AI skeptic in case you're wondering.
jethronethro··on Open Letter to Anthropic – Last Ditch Attempt Before Abandoning the Platform
Will Anthropic care about an open letter from some random, dissatisfied user? I very much doubt it. Will they care when users leave en masse? Probably, but since that's not happening at the moment this is just a message in a bottle cast on a big ocean. Sadly.
jethronethro··on Biggest 4-day work week trial finds workers are happier, feel just as productive
Wonder when CEOs are going to lobby the government to suppress this report. I mean, they can't have happy employees who aren't under their thumb (at least) five days a week.
jethronethro··on A creek with atomic waste from WWII is linked to increased cancer risk
I'm half expecting RFK Jr. to make a show of swimming in the creek to show that there's no danger ...
jethronethro··on Ask HN: What Pocket alternatives did you move to?
wallabag. Actually been using it for years, with a short detour to the now-gone Omnivore.
jethronethro··on Learning a New Language Is Hard, but Your Brain Will Thank You
The last time I tried to learn another language, my brain partly melted. It was then I realized that I'm not wired for that.
jethronethro··on The U.S. Will Incinerate 500 Tons of Emergency Food Aid
It's a wonder that they don't find a use for all that food on the domestic front. Hunger is a problem in the US, too. But I guess under this administration everyone needs to pull themselves up by their own jock straps.
jethronethro··on The internet hates Botox and filler but only when it looks bad
Or worse. Much, much worse.
jethronethro··on Ask HN: Who Is the Best Paid Email Provider? Why?
Winners? Or just potential choices?
jethronethro··on Digital Journaling Platform
The page this links to tells me nothing about the platform, what it does, and why I might want to use it. Nothing there to encourage me to sign up.
jethronethro··on Ask HN: Who Is the Best Paid Email Provider? Why?
Best can be such a loaded word, especially in this case. What's best for one person might not be for someone else. Preferred is a better term.

As for my preferred email provider, that's Fastmail.

jethronethro··on Red Bull team principal Christian Horner fired after 20 years with team
Maybe, maybe not. But F1 is a sport that relies on a lot of technology and I'm sure more than a few HN readers are fans of the sport.
jethronethro··on FakeFind
The title of this should include Show HN.
jethronethro··on LinkedIn Hates Me
Hate LinkedIn back ...

Seriously, if LinkedIn is causing you that many problems then is it worth still using? Is it an essential part of your career/business/job search? Dump it. It's not worth the headaches and stress you're being subjected to.

jethronethro··on Cutting US Military spending could save as much energy as used by a small nation
Wonder how long before this study is declared anti American, is banned, and its authors arrested.
jethronethro··on My official list of post-glitch.com hosting options
What qualifies this list as official?
