sib301··on Americans – including many Republicans – are losing faith in capitalism
Yea CNN is trash, but if you’re worried about liberal bias, the article is referencing a Fox News poll.
sib301··on Steam Machine launches today
Incorrect go spec something on new egg and you’ll get a very similar number.
sib301··on Autoland saves King Air, everyone reported safe
I am indeed impressed but not at all surprised considering what we used to get to the moon!
sib301··on In a U.S. First, New Mexico Opens Doors to Free Child Care for All
Perhaps if you take them to a dump. The wonderful people at my daughter’s day care are absolutely invested in their development and spend 6 uninterrupted hours per day with them focused exclusively on that. It’s stupid expensive though.
sib301··on In a U.S. First, New Mexico Opens Doors to Free Child Care for All
The fact he only supports women staying at home should tell you everything you need to know about the caliber person you’re dealing with.
sib301··on In a U.S. First, New Mexico Opens Doors to Free Child Care for All
What if the husband wants to stay home and raise the kids?

Also no, women (or men) who stay home don’t “know best” by default. That knowledge is earned and requires intent.

sib301··on How we’re responding to The NYT’s data demands in order to protect user privacy
Can you please elaborate?
sib301··on Commercial jet collides with Black Hawk helicopter near Reagan airport
I just listened to the ATC recording from immediately before the collision. ATC instructs the helicopter to pass behind the CRJ. I’m fairly certain a few minutes before that, ATC instructed the helicopter to maintain visual separation, which is common. They typically ask, “do you have the aircraft in sight” and if you respond in the affirmative they rely on you to maintain safe distance.

I should mention that in the recording you can only hear one side of the conversation, so I don’t know whether or not the helicopter said whether or not they had visual contact with the plane they collided with.

Either way it doesn’t seem to be the fault of ATC. Of course we’ll know more as additional information becomes available.

sib301··on Gemini 2.0: our new AI model for the agentic era
This has happened to me zero times. :shrug:
sib301··on SpaceX Super Heavy splashes down in the gulf, canceling chopsticks landing
You believe him?
sib301··on Ozempic keeps wowing: trial data show benefits for kidney disease
I don’t disagree with most of what you said, and I wont say big government and more regulation is the answer, but I’m super skeptical that small government would yield better results as it relates to public health. Is your point that government, big or small, won’t solve the problems we’re facing, so why waste the money? If so, that seems like a defeatist attitude, which also doesn’t jive with me.

Many of the regulations in place today absolutely have a net positive impact on public health. Even many regs enforced by the FDA. Anyway, I’m just wondering what your solution is if big govt is the problem. Thanks.

sib301··on Is This Amelia Earhart's Long-Lost Plane?
What you’re saying is possible but understand that things will shift and settle in the 90 years since she went down. Most plane wrecks I’ve seen photos of show mangled fuselages, snapped off wings, tail sections, etc.
sib301··on Amazon's Ring to stop letting police request doorbell video from users
They blur people from view with street view so it isn’t quite the same.
sib301··on Show HN: Made some progress on character consistency for AI storytelling
Seems really disingenuous to compare to corridor crew’s video which had to film real actors for each scene they want to create.
sib301··on The U.S. has a plan to store carbon dioxide under the nation's forests
Isn’t underground carbon sequestration essential how the process occurs naturally?
sib301··on The US is quietly arming Taiwan to the teeth
Singapore does not have any bases in the US. Not sure what you’re talking about.
sib301··on Someone is trying to rebuild Friendster
I’ve never heard anyone say “ops doesn’t matter”
sib301··on How to run 50% faster without external energy (2020)
People fall off bikes and lose their teeth in the process all the time.
sib301··on Amazon's Fallout TV series gets a 2024 release date
I recommend you check out The Last of Us on HBO.
sib301··on Why higher-income workers in California may get surprised by tax hike in 2024
Thats what he was saying…
sib301··on Ask HN: Code signing certificates, and Stripe Atlas
Thank you for the response. On the sites I used, it seemed like they funnel you to EV - probably because they're more expensive. I'll look into DV certs.
sib301··on Apple Vision Pro: Apple’s first spatial computer
I’m fairly certain that you can just create a virtual monitor in the vision pro that just mirrors the MacBook like any other display would.
sib301··on Show HN: Beesy – Record Google Meets for free, download locally
Because in some states consent is required before recording a conversation. Regardless of what you plan to use the recording for.
sib301··on Twitter suspends pg's account [fixed]
Of course he will do it. He plans to step down regardless of the results of this poll.
sib301··on Twitter’s mass layoffs have begun
Every time this debate comes up, someone suggests that companies like Twitter are in violation of the first amendment when they remove a user's post. To me they often sound like the ignorant ones.
sib301··on YouTube Premium price increased by nearly 30%
There are adblockers that work for twitch without issue.
sib301··on Short story about my Steam Deck
You’ll be fine. My experience with their support has been great. Seems to be the case with others as well.
sib301··on Zuckerberg says FBI warning prompted Biden laptop story censorship
Did you read the article or watch the clip? What you’re describing isn’t at all what happened.
sib301··on Hikaru Nakamura's Forbidden Platform
I think you're right that it's mostly subjective. I slightly prefer chess.com, to lichess, but I wouldn't call either "outright unusable".
sib301··on Scientists have finally found the potential “cure” for baldness
Because we as a species can multi-task. Many billions of dollars are spent on cancer research every year by the NIH alone. Imagine if we did all our research as a species in series as opposed to in parallel.
