Press increasingly started abdicating their job when journalism was no longer financially independent of the people and institutions it is supposed to scrutinize.

I was about to write s/caffeine/theobromine/ when I double-checked and learned that theobromine is a metabolite of caffeine. Mind blown.

Not completely sarcasm, I left unsaid that the bed design is a result of the "cutting edge styling", they would've had to change the styling on the back side at the very least to make a bit more practical truck.

And I think they should have moderated the style on the back. Gone for more of a mullet LOL.

Everybody is focusing on responding to the title

but I thought this bit was far more interesting:

> I read a lot of printed papers these days. While I enjoy reading on a laptop as much as the next guy, marking up a printed document engages me better. Also, there's something about sitting with a whiteboard and a printed document that makes me rightly feel like I'm doing something important.

would be interesting to consider a totally new workflow of automatically printing off any "read later" stuff, including interesting HN posts.. and then actually sit down and read the paper, no distractions.

I think Cybertruck's mistake ultimately boils down to the bed design - it just wasn't practical enough.

There was a youtube video that analyzed those game ads and I think they found that the games being shown in the ad are mini-games within the real game.

Supposedly the ads need to be based on some element of the game, so what they do is they make mini-games and use that as advertising material. It's all a tactic to get people to their actual game.

It's basically bait and switch.
