If you find logic puzzles interesting, take a look at "Games for Your Mind: The History and Future of Logic Puzzles" by Jason Rosenhouse. There's a whole chapter on Smullyan and his Knights and Knaves problems and is a generally good guide for getting into formal logic.

The part I enjoyed the most in the book was "The Empuzzlement of Gödel's Theorems" that uses a twist with Knights and Knaves.

I think this article does a good job in describing why I always found Tesla's tech demos so jarring.

There's a certain amount of "movie magic" that goes into any tech demo to make it work well on stage but Tesla's demos never gave me a sense that what I was seeing would actually line up with how their cars will perform in the real world.

You have to be ambitious and aim high in the tech industry, but at some point you have to level out and stop getting high on hype.


For a long time I've personally felt that if someone in my life is going back and forth from being friendly to being mean, I mark that relationship as being negative. Not a question in my mind.

Relationships are to be judged by consistent behavior over weeks, months and years. If I have to keep guessing if I'm going to get the stick or the carrot from someone, to me it's a no-brainer that I shouldn't expect kindness from them.


I think this was a good and balanced take on the situation. Patreon giving their entire security team the axe without any notice should make anyone step back and rethink using their service.

Unless some major creators that use Patreon begin a very public exodus from the site, I'm not sure too many regular users are going to be leaving though. The blackmail risk of having your subscription history leaked won't even register for a lot of users.


> Patreon giving their entire security team the axe without any notice should make anyone step back and rethink using their service.

It's really hard to get people to take their monthly contributions to a Patreon competitor. The inertia is really hard to overcome. So in a sense its kind of like lock-in - if you move you'll give up some % of your income.


This is one of the most clickbait-y titles I've ever run across.

If you want to talk about objects in executables and your new programming language, that's what Hacker News is here for! But you don't need to trick people into clicking your technical review.


This is where a sense of humor would come in handy.


Same problem happened with me. When I opened the page with Edge/Chrome everything loaded in an instant.


This gets shared a lot whenever Assembly is mentioned on HN but this is a pretty good intro to arm32 Assembly. The tutorials and examples can be run on a physical or emulated Raspberry Pi :
