If you're someone who offsets the typical HN vocation with outdoor recreation like hiking, cycling, climbing, mountaineering, etc., then consider the weeklong Wilderness First Responder (WFR) course. Much more practically useful than EMT for the majority of time where you don't have an ambulance handy, and you can scratch a similar itch as the author's by doing volunteer Search and Rescue work.

I appreciate the minimalist HN aesthetic, but without some context I'm not willing to click a mystery link to "Tender Lovemaking dot com".

I love a good taste-of-their-own-medicine story like anyone else, but the headline is false.

It seems that this is about a YouTuber stalking a Flock employee's vehicle through traffic for 10-15 minutes, which is why the police were called.

It's an evolutionary curiosity that their DNA study identified 17 species within the genus Lanmoa, but L. asiatica was the only species which produces this hallucinatory effect.

There are several very commonly found boletes within the genus Lanmoa in the US, including L. pseudosensibilis and the "Bouillon Bolete" L. rubissima.

I purchased a bottle of good Vietnamese fish sauce after reading a thread on HN about its mythical flavor profile.

Added a few meager drops to a noodle soup, and I was so overwhelmed with nausea that I threw out the entire pot, and threw the entire bottle of fish sauce into the trash.

I can't imagine want an unholy stench this decades-old fish sauce plant must produce. I would have evacuated permanently, without question.

TLDR: The new variant is that the word "repair" was changed to "service" in the user manual.

Seconding this for geospatial dev projects, which may have absolutely massive binary data files.

You've described every recording ever made.

I'm describing a band playing a concert to an empty ampitheatre which has been silent for two millennia after its inhabitants perished together in an instant.

The Live at Pompeii "concert" in that empty amphitheatre has always felt to me like they were playing to an audience of ghosts or spirits.

If you have the opportunity to see it on a big screen or IMAX, it's an incredibly moving experience.

That really improved things! Now each rabbithole goes deeper and deeper and deeper...

This is why we can't have nice things.

Looks like someone scripted `curl` in a loop and generated thousands of permutations of hate content.

It seems like the site's algorithm is that every newly-generate page includes multiple links to not-yet-existing pages. So it doesn't matter that existing pages are cached, all the "leaf node" pages link to multiple uncached new pages.

That's a pretty absurd complaint.

Are you aware of any XML parser ever which preserves the plaintext formatting of the .xml file while magically inserting and modifying an arbitrary amount of XML data anywhere within the document?

SVG is just XML. Save your file in Inkscape, and then run `tidy` on it, or whatever you like for format your XML with.

(As a fellow hand-crafted XML fan, I feel your pain. But I also know when to choose my battles!)

This site is going to be expensive when a web crawler hits it. A honey pot that burns tokens.
