What’s racist about it?


presumably something related to DEI


Ho ho ho the comments here are vitriolic. For anyone missing the point, Not Boring is an experimental studio that creates highly sensory everyday apps like weather and calculator.

It’s functional art.


Behind a paywall and platform-segregated. I guess even the Mona Lisa is behind a velvet rope?


If you’re doing a lot of layoffs but your company is doing well you need to give a clear reason to your existing employees so they can stay focused.


"low performer" seems like the most conflict heavy route to do that.


True for a year or two, but after that your warm up sets get so heavy that you’ll need at least 10 minutes to get up to your working sets.


I've never warmed up before. I'm not a super advanced athlete, but I can put 315 on the bench and I don't weigh very much.


Theres not really much documented benefit of warming up for injury prevention as far as i know. I think it improves performance, but its definitely an area where much time can be saved.


You may as well wonder why there were railroad barons instead of railroads being public access.


Were the parents on medications and/or obese? “Co-sleeping” is the instinctually normal way to sleep with your defenseless infant.


It's true that e.g. medications and alcohol can increase the risks for the child, but many people also have apnoea (often without knowing) which can also lead to sudden movements in your sleep.

The article says there's no socio-economic factors; the data says the risk is the same for all babies.

If you don't want to change your habits because of an article, that is fine, but people should be aware of the risk.

We use a co-sleeping bed next to the parents bed and the infant is just as close, but safer from harm


Something being ‘instinctually normal’ does not make it inherently the safest option


Don't worry my friend. It's just a teaser trailer. It will be followed by a gameplay trailer, just like movie teasers are followed by longer trailers.


How about if we control for IQ?


Other people can't tell I own Apple products when my phone is in my pocket and I'm not listening to music.


Do you not where you're Apple Sneakers everywhere?

(It'd have been funny if Sotheby's had titled the size "Leopard.")


X has a ton of cultural impact today—it’s just that the audience has shifted from neoliberal to classical liberal/libertarian. Lots of politics, philosophy, tech news, and culture thrives. It’s just not happening in your bubble evidently.


What on earth do you think ‘neoliberal’ means?

Are you claiming there has been a mass exodus of Thatcherite/Reaganomic thinkers supportive of the Chicago School of market led small state capitalism from the platform?

I guess I don’t see many Pinochet apologists on Twitter these days.

I suggest a quick read of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoliberalism


Neoliberal is a general purpose snarl word meaning, roughly, "stealth reactionary". Drew DeVault, for example, describes Hackernews as neoliberal because it does not do enough to muzzle Nazis and signal-boost progressives.


That sounds like the exact opposite of what the original poster intended. And I’m pretty sure when either Drew DeVault or the OP is picturing a neoliberal neither is thinking of Margaret Thatcher.

I guess words don’t have to mean things any more.
