Then how can you see and reply to my post?

kaffeemitsahne · 5 years ago

Because I vouched for it first (requires some amount of karma I think).

One can argue that light degrading a centuries old stone wall counts as a long exposure photograph.

I'm pretty sure I've seen some examples of this but I can't find them now. Besides the better-known pinhole photography, there is also pinspeck photography, and some random object standing in front of the wall could perform the function of the pinspeck.

Here's an article which discusses it, and it appears to explicitly not be lenticular.

"There’s a lot more to the evolution, enough for a book on the subject, but if you had to create a list of what kinds of technology and methodology went into the Looking Glass (since they do not list it), it might look like this:"

Pure speculation.

I see. It makes sense, thanks. I guess that's actually the problem that silo'd discussions solve (if you see only what you already like, you won't rush to disagree, and your comments won't shock people). Although, that's quite a depressing conclusion :)

Out of curiosity, do you have any leads on what may replace a voting system for emerging insightful content? It sounds like a job for AI, but I guess any bias in it would be hated even more passionately.

Most HN threads are not that big, I think it'd do just fine with (reverse?) chronological ordering.

Every experiment in UBI says otherwise. Direct cash grants usually lead people to do more work, because now they can do the work they enjoy.

Also, look around groups of wealthy people. The ones who don't have to work anymore. Sure, some of them live a life of leisure, but many of them still work, because they get bored otherwise.

>Every experiment in UBI says otherwise.

Has even one of these been a permanent (for the recipients) experiment?

> Can you get a decent synth, sequencer, and sampler for the money? Well, not necessarily.

Not even close to true. Deluge, MPC Live, AKAI Force are all waaay more capable and cost about the same new as a used OP-1.

Ah, but can you power all of those from a battery pack and keep them on your lap on the train after taking them out of your small backpack? And all at the same time!
