Many people do enjoy the taste. This is why nonalcoholic beer and wine exist.

Also, my understanding of the word drunk is that it means "very or extremely intoxicated." Even if you hated the taste of alcohol you could still put up with the taste and have a small amount to feel slightly intoxicated and still not be drunk.

I regret not taking it. Hummer-Winblad really wanted to give us some money but I couldn't figure out what they brought to the table. In retrospect, it was marketing, the money could have paid for marketing. And because they were invested they would have insisted on marketing.

Did I mention we needed some marketing? We really needed some marketing.

So, while it's very common to ask about taking investment, also look hard at the whole picture and see if there is a part of it that you'll (perhaps secretly) admit that you don't want to do. If you are in complete control you can kid yourself that you'll get to that part and never do it. Or, in our case, not do it until it is too late.

Investment can be viewed as adding some adult supervision. I screwed up by not taking it, I was so worried about the dreaded VC's screwing up my company that I didn't consider the possibility that they could also help. Well I did, but was too stupid to value the marketing part (I'm a hard core engineer at heart).

Show HN: Sakura - a minimal classless css theme. Just drop it in and done.
Boston is the real deal when it comes to ID crackdowns. About 150k college students so some tens of thousands of fake IDs, plus a history of blue laws. I believe that legally they are even allowed to refuse legitimate out-of-state US drivers' licenses (most places do not do this, but they can). Foreign passports also can be refused. And that's not even counting the notorious "box scanners" which, to my knowledge, are yet to be beaten reliably with a fake...
Are the reviewers going to browse random content? Somewhat possible with trend detection (make a human look at quickly rising stuff) but very wasteful since most of that will be either benign or incomprehensible to the outsider.

Will they watch private streams and read private messages? That sounds like a privacy disaster even Facebook would prefer to avoid.

Which leaves them with reports from users. Basically, reviewing millions of "hate speech" reports and either effectively instituting a very strict speech code or ignoring vast majority of them leading to further complaints.
So I just released `v1.0.0` of my classless css theme "sakura" and thought I'd share it with you guys.

What is it?: It's a set of default css styles applied directly to HTML elements without needing to use classes.

Just drop in `sakura.css` to any webpage and go from ugly looking 1900's website/plain html sites to a pretty modern website in literally 0 seconds. No need to change HTML of the page.

I made this to bootstrap small websites quickly without having to add a ton of classes from the regular css frameworks.

>"this is designed to be good at killing people"

You are trivializing it. If you talk to a specialist they can tell you all about stopping powers of various calibers and round capacity of a gun.

And, yes, it is designed to be good at killing people and I am glad for it. I don't want to threaten an aggressor with a dull letter opener, hardly qualify as a deadly force. When it is used, it better serve the purpose, lives depend on it.

I firmly believe there are more good people than bad in this world. I would rather have my fellow human being, my neighbor, armed and able to help, than wait for cops to arrive.

I think prolific gun ownership can be an answer to honking and road rage. :-)

You may chose to not arm yourself, perfectly fine by me. When you say others shouldn't be armed either, that is when you are bigger enemy than the criminals.

Do you even believe that people have right to defend themselves, or should they let the crime unfold and then let the law take its due course?

Anecdotally, I was also a member of a small, online, gaming focused community for a long time. It wasn't as directly tied to emulator/roms, but there was definitely a focus on Japanese console games. Over the years, a number of those members have come out as transgender, which has similarly made me wonder what it was about that community that attracted so many people that probably felt ostracized in real life.

What not just use jq? https://stedolan.github.io/jq/
I doubt it's even regulation, just inertia.

There used to be (still is?) an API called HBCI, but to my knowlegdge that required a smartcard (maybe not to bad an idea) and was mostly read-only. I think in the early 2000s you could use things like Quicken and MS Money to do homebanking (is this why some people in Germany still have the impression that it is dangerous and complicated?)

I think what "Sofortüberweisung.com" initially did was just to scrape the websites of all major banks, and use the HTML as an API. Then the banks found out they could not do much against it legally (and also fearing backlash because they had no good website-payment solution themselves), and they made some agreements.
Or it reflects the low actual utility of college degrees.

I know someone who sews cute things; she'll post on Facebook about the progress, pictures of work-in-progress plushes, or purses, or coasters. She'll then go sell them on Etsy, and also post on FB for friends to buy. It's not a lifestyle business, but it's a way to recoup the cost of materials for doing something she enjoys doing. Often they're made from leftover fabric scraps from something she already made, so this is a way to recoup a little bit more from what she already sews.
What about the Uber example? That's seem pretty cool.

Ask HN: Should hw startup raise money from family and friends?
I'm exploring some startup idea with some friends.

to be honest, I'm not that into this idea.

a prototype is being worked on, and functional, but not polished.

the original idea was joining some incubator and looking for angel investment. however there were some setbacks.

now, the other two team members felt the difficulty of raising money, so they kinda have made up their mind to quit job at a point and burn own money and raise fund from family and friends.

we never had a formal discussion about this plan. they seemed to assume that I'm also on board with them and under social pressure, I feel that I'm pushed toward this direction and I don't like it.

I recall I constantly seeing articles talking about how wrong it is to raise money from family and friends, plus this idea has hardware involved, which is very risky. I remember, for example, one of the "how to startup" lecture talked about this, but I can't find the link.

what do you think?

Thanks.
There are a lot of similar "long tail" reasons that explain why once cost of electric cars is on par with ice's electrification will speed up.
To add to your "gas station" example, most of these stations make profit not from gasoline but from other stuff they sell like cigarettes, sodas, chips etc. Once the traffic decreases, the profitability will drop substantially so their demise will be faster than if you only consider gasoline sales.

My predictions:
- once electric school buses are available parents will push for their quicker adoption so their kids don't have to breath in the diesel and its waste products.

- since electric cars require less maintenance automotive parts stores and car service centers will be hit. No need to change oil every few k miles. No need change your muffler, transmission fluid etc. This will make ice parts availability to drop and price to increase.

- if Tesla is successful with its direct sales other manufacturers will eventually follow. Number of dealerships will drop

- some stores like Costco offer gas discounts for their customers. If they see that number of electric cars is increasing they will replace that with free charging spots for the best customers.

- electric cars will (presumably) not be required to do emission testing, which in turn will require states to lower number of emission testing centers. After a while it's possible that these emission centers will be few and far between, an emission testing will become even bigger annoyance that it already is.

- Once number of gas stations starts dropping all of the trucking companies that deliver gas will have harder time making profits. After few of them go bankrupt, gasoline deliver will be more expensive.

- Once sales of gasoline substantially decrease, refineries will have more trouble selling their products, so new refineries will not be build. This will again increase price of gasoline but also the price of heating oil.

- After electric cars hit 10% of the market, ICEs will be considered a "new smoking". Peer pressure will keep growing, having an ICE will be uncool.

- once oil companies stop being as profitable people on the stock market will start moving their money to other stocks. This will force these companies to stop their dividends, which in turn will make them even less attractive.

- states will have to increase taxes on gasoline to make up for the lost revenue. Eventually electric cars will be taxed in some way but before that happens gasoline will become even more expensive.

- once oil production is in decline because of decreased demand, countries like Russia and Saudi Arabia will have to deal with huge economic problems that could lead to crash of their economies. This will make access to oil even harder raising the price of gas even more.

- electric cars will lower cost of batteries, which in turn will make them a better solution for power tools, lawn mowers etc.

Couldn't everything be thought of as positive. Like in math. Just a 1 means positive 1. -1 though is also positive though because in writing that there is an invisible positive sign. +-1. -1 IS positive, because -1, IS -1, and it is NOT -- NOT, -1. Therefore the article is talking about something that only exists as something that "isn't something that exists", and there is no negative knowledge; or something, man.

That's impossible.

Edit: As CoreDog said, it would be a cost nightmare. Already airlines would suffer massively if any type is grounded. Ground 737s or A321s? It would be like 9-11 all over again, shut down most every flight of almost every airline.

Even grounding a specific version of a type, like 737-700 would be difficult to handle for the airlines that fly them. Alaska would have to cancel nearly 10% of their flights. And it's hard to imagine how the FAA could ground the 737-700 and not the 737-800 at the same time given they are almost identical, which would ground 2/3s of Alaska's fleet.

Airlines can consolidate their fleets around a few specific models because it's super cost effective, and the chances of grounding any single model are virtually nil. 737s and A3xx have flown many billions of miles safely since their last incident, it's almost impossible to imagine a problems so urgent and dangerous it would require grounding an entire fleet of planes that flies safely every single day.
Fact that anyone official commented on matter is big deal, but it's still worth nothing and change nothing. AMD for instance has proprietary firmware on GPU too and their highly technical Linux staff (John Bridgman and others) confirmed many times they simply can't open it even if they wanted to due to all DRM-related certification, agreements with IP partners, etc.

And it's much worse in case of PSP because first of all it's ARM IP and they wouldn't be able to change anything without agreement with them. Also after a little of Google-fu I find interesting document:

http://fileshare.arseniyshestakov.com/mirror/AMD_PSP_Briefin...

That's mirror, but you can easily find source. So AMD actually pitch it not just to governments, but also defence institutions and this is just much much worse than story with DRM.

What worries me is how these gatekeepers will be chosen. Will there be criteria that makes sure they aren't just applying their own biases? Will they come from all sides of the political spectrum, or will one political leaning be better represented? Will political content be reviewed by more than one reviewer?
The question is what '2M reports' means. If that means 2M reports are made by users, but they can be made on the same page/post/user, then they can be easily grouped. So, if you get 500 reports on a single post, the reports can be investigated in bulk and that would make the number of investigations smaller. I believe this is the case.
Realistically though, if you buy IKEA furniture and assemble it at home, it's not "made in my bedroom". The vast majority of the value created in the process of of creating an A321 will be overseas. Assembling it here is just a gimmick, for better or for worse.
