A CEO of a large AI company is hardly just a "messenger" here. Come on now.

But it isn't "from scratch", is it? It's "from Claude".

They weren't saying your _post_ was spam. They're saying you build tools for spammers.

Because that's what they'll be used for.

Whatever it is, it needs to be a pun on "oak trees", because they're _eggcorns_ that grew up.

This is sarcasm, right?

EVs may have reduced use of the friction brakes, but I still wouldn't budget 0% to their maintenance ;)

Your interpretation of what HN is about is narrow at best.

Furthermore, the justices explicitly called out Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell as cases that could potentially be revisited.

Where's the [sic] overdramaticization?

How long do you think it takes for a woman to know she is pregnant?

Never assume Ted Cruz is operating in good faith.

Because the heel hurts "the other" - marginalized people - more than the average person who voted them in. They're willing to suffer a little, as long as the right people suffer _a lot_.

New comment by JustResign in "YouTube is banning anti-vaccine activists and blocking all anti-vaccine content"

In Texas, as a schoolteacher, you must agree not to boycott Israel. Is boycotting violence?

New comment by JustResign in "Congratulations, Mini, you made the stupidest turn signals ever"

Given Mini's British origins, this is brilliant

New comment by JustResign in "Ultra Wide Monitors – A pain in the neck? (2020)"

JustResign — Sat, 07 Aug 2021 14:54:19 +0000

It's worse: the author took common diagonal sizes and then assumed those were _widths_. 34" and 49" are diagonal measurements for monitors.

If you egg it on, what makes you better than the "others" you distinguish yourself from?

Small things can still be unethical.

New comment by JustResign in "Cost of a 51% Attack for Different Cryptocurrencies"

JustResign — Sun, 06 Jun 2021 15:08:04 +0000

Either I'm missing something big, or this site is.

It assumes you can rent this capacity via NiceHash, but the whole point of a 51% attack is to run _different code_ on the majority of nodes.

Surely NiceHash would rent you capacity running the vanilla e.g. Ethereum code, rather than your fork?

To assume otherwise basically makes NiceHash remote code execution as a service.

New comment by JustResign in "On Smoking"

JustResign — Tue, 01 Jun 2021 08:21:03 +0000

I certainly did. I still remember the feeling of "oh no, I've fucked it all up" in the dream, and then the feeling of relief when you wake up and realize that you didn't actually smoke.
