Sad, but true. I'm all for preventing this scenario from happening in the future by banning the exploitation of these animals. However, the elephant in the story has been with it's owners for over 40 years now. Maybe it's Stockholm's syndrome, but I wouldn't risk the potential torment to both the elephant and the humans in this situation based on that amount of time. So while they should be able to keep this elephant, they should not be allowed to acquire a new elephant in the future.

Not when someone can banish it from the front page[1]. See this comment timestamp[2] and compare it with the sudden drop in ranking on the upvote tracker chart.

> highly recommend you try something like shrooms in the safe environment

Just listened to Seth Rogen's audible book (hilarious, and decent anecdata on shrooms particularly) and he would say shrooms are a lot more intense than LSD. Shrooms take control while on LSD you're "the pilot."

Seriously, not that you can source directly from there, but give it 20min and you'll figure it out. Hint: BTC & DMs

Depends where they are prosecuted. In the US, we'll use the EU's copy of the data, vice versa (wish this was \s)

Ugh, PG discounted his earlier works, again.

I can't relate to "workers" (employees) and I haven't been out of the workforce for nearly as long as PG.

Dalio emphasizes the importance of being believable, and I don't believe that PG understands the concept of work/life balance(or "work-life" or whatever).

> more valid grey opinion

What makes the "grey" opinion "more valid"?

Shady fly by night data hosting doing counter-intel, or better, Putin spending his precious rubles on running counter-intel ops for shady fly by night hosting companies, are both hilarious.

> Twitter blocking Trump isn't functionally different than the NYT or WaPo publishing the pentagon papers. It is a private organization exercising their right to push back against government propaganda. It is first amendment protected, and it should unequivocally be defended by those who believe in civil liberties.

This argument needs to be made more often. Thanks!

In-office work needs to be compensated differently than WFH. They will try to decrease WFH compensation initially, like the loss of benefits threat in the article, but the number of potential employers is higher for WFH workers, giving them leverage.

> located 11.7 million light-years from Earth

I might consider 11.7 light-years "unusual" or "baffling." But times that by a million and it becomes a lot less so.

I would expect more of that competitive advantage, too! Most people don't want to give up Working from home[1] and/or are only interested in "working" to collect a paycheck[2]. If the future because of in-office work mostly consists of ambitious people like yourself, opposed to the latter, then I'm actually more interested in joining. Thanks for the perspective.

Today NASA also announced new missions to Venus, discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27374233

And I didn't realize NASA hasn't been there in >30 years either.

Looks good. Reminds me of Prezi.
