  The tests are in no way scientific. Do a little research and you will find some horrifying truths about what is presented. https://medium.com/@randomuser_11627/the-telepathy-tapes-is-a-scam-606f7e11963e https://jonogden.substack.com/p/lets-talk-about-the-telepathy-tapes https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/the-telepathy-tapes-more-fc-pseudoscience/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Microsoft Fire IdTech Team at Id Software

  Console vs PC is a red herring since UE games still stutter on consoles, people just notice that less because most games run at 30 fps anyway. You can read Unreal's own blog posts on this and they'll actually explain that this is mostly down to their material system (and game logic/scripts reaching into it) being designed to create nearly infinite shader variations on the fly in response to arbitrary world/game... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Why migrants come to Germany for work and then leave again

  I'm no expert on haplogroups either, but cursory googling seems to indicate they are far more numerous and nuanced than the late victorian, scientific-racism derived classifications used today - i.e.: black, white, asian etc. But we don't need to be specialists in population genetics to observe that human cultures interbreed. We can't reliably correlate visible biomarkers with genetic origin, especially in... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Footage Shows Cop Stalking Woman After Surveilling Her with a LPR

  I think it's intresting to read about the guy who made yolo, take a look at his website and later, his thoughts about the monster he may have created. https://medium.com/@graham.wallington/the-evolution-of-yolo-joseph-redmons-departure-and-the-ethics-of-computer-vision-66d9b75f0eca https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (May 2024)

  I’m a writer and editor with an interest in content strategy and a technical bent. I am especially good at pulling together the threads of tech history (which you may have seen on my newsletter Tedium, which periodically shows up on HN) but also have two decades of work history in marketing and journalism. As a freelancer, I’ve written many popular stories for Vice’s Motherboard and just published a story in Fast... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Do newsletters work? Why do websites push them so much?

  Newsletter author here. I run two actually—Tedium (https://tedium.co/) and MidRange (https://midrange.tedium.co). Yes, they work. Beyond the ROI benefits already mentioned by other folks, it’s seen as an “owned” platform, something that you control, versus social media, where the platform is operated by someone else. You can make changes and adapt more efficiently to subscriber needs than somewhere like social... - Source: Hacker News / almost 4 years ago

• Craft CMS 4 Released

  I have been using Craft to run my newsletter, Tedium (https://tedium.co), since the start of 2019. I moved from Ghost, which at the time was not really designed for newsletters at all. I find Craft an amazing tool when I want to add new things—a big difference from Ghost, where everything is just kind of set for you and you have to rely on external integrations to expand functionality. I custom-code my emails and... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• The Complicated Futility of WordPress

  I run Craft CMS for Tedium (https://tedium.co). I could push it further but one way I use it is by creating a custom view that “spits” out a completed email template with all of my desired layout considerations and quirks already considered. I could push it further and run the newsletter through Craft itself, though I’ve chosen to pay someone to manage the sending of the email. (And while not particularly... - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago
