Just because one is a felon doesn't mean "it's all over". Case in point, Jeremy Meeks

Use case? :O

Poor people simply don't buy grocery, in fact many of them haven't "bought" anything except lottery tickets and an occasional pizza in decades.

OK, I'll try to contribute more high brow stuff

It's scarcely a joke

Why not stick them on your back and just peel one off when you need to give one off?

Twizzler is not organic matter is it?

Or you listen to podcast

So a typo.

It's logically conceivable that they added it within five minutes of me posting the comment

You have to clean up your own hairs too. They don't bring a broom, I think

Did Travis (uber) go to one of those places?

Was the doctor able to tell over the phone you lost a tooth?

Rolodex? What's next, a Filofax?

If it only does one thing it is a tool.

If it does many things it becomes a subordinate with an intelligence of its own, something you need to communicate with or talk to, as opposed to something you can simply use

Do you RETAIN the answer you find in books? Maybe they only need to watch the video once and can retain it forever because the rich visual stimuli gives them so many different neural pathways for recall.

But there's always an immediate trigger

Your welcome!

Re: sip, why not just use a custom HTML file. I store vast majority of my data in custom HTML files custom written with custom js and CSS and custom elements. Level of customizability is extremely high and you can represent the data with infinite flexibility and you can display your data via an infinite number of views and it's just a matter of switching stylesheets. All hail the age of custom written HTML pages intended for personal use! Hooray for the practice of keeping your data in HTML! Boo markdown which is tremendously tremendously overrated. The age of writing HTML for other people is over. The age of writing HTML for your own private consumption is on us!!!

A quick Google search of "quora" can also yield numerous sources stating it is full of bullshit. Of course, a quick Google search of any of those further sources will probably lead to the same thing...

You can probably get paralyzed just by sitting since you are no longer shifting your legs around in response to mild discomfort

This is basically what I've been doing except I use all custom tags with custom written stylesheets. You can have a lot more flexibility that way.

You could look into this app called Sprintwork. I set the profile to be fixed for thirty days and so far I've yet to find a way to circumvent it.

If on iOS, the parental restrictions are awesome.

If on Android, restrictions are worthless so I usually use a blocker, set the phone to unlock by fingerprint and in addition have a system password (because of the possibility of logging in via "safe mode" which I so regret having discovered) written down on a piece of paper and hid inside my neighborhood Starbuck's sofa.

Lmao my NYT guy actually switched into a stereotypical Chinese accent when I didn't catch sth he said and asked him could he repeat (my surname is Chinese)

He said 'almost impossible'. Big difference.

It makes you wonder if sometimes people make opinionated comments on here just to elicit free lessons in some unfamiliar topic.

I mean, I do that sometimes. Once there was a thread discussing an app, and I wanted to know if the app has a certain feature. Instead of just asking whether it has that feature, I posted a comment saying "the only thing preventing me from switching to [app] is its lack of [feature]", thinking I'm more likely to get a response that way. And indeed right away I got a correction from an angry poster with just the information I was looking for. lmao

same can be said for "bush did 911" lmao

Wow nice, I can easily imagine using this to manage my custom keymaps.

Currently I store everything in Excel. All the modifiers and modifier-combinations (lctrl, lalt, lshift, lctrl+lalt, lctrl+ralt+lshift ...) correspond to columns, all the modified keys (a-z, 0-9, ...) column to rows.

But being limited to 2 dimensions can be very inconvenient. For example since you have at least 6 modifier keys (ctrl, alt, shift keys on both left and right, 8 if you include windows keys, 9 if you include remapped capslock), trying to cover all the modifier combinations (e.g. lctrl+ralt+lshift) leads to combinatorial explosion and make the number of columns totally unmanagable. (It becomes even trickier when you want to define vim style sequences)

This looks like it's designed just for that purpose!!

lmao that ain't his reasoning muh brah. His point is about target demographics. The typical person who buys a knock-off -- is s/he such that, had the knock-off been unavailable, s/he would have purchased the real thing instead. Only if you answer to that question is yes will you assess the cost to be $100.

minor: 1. Coach (US), not Gucci (Italy). 2. The author is a legit economist (expert on monetary policy), content from his blog has been posted on HN regularly. He recently posted a series of comments on China. If you're interested check them out at:

> Yes. A $100 counterfeit handbag costs American companies at least $100 in lost profits

What do you think is the reason the economist sounds so dismissive of that idea?
