I think your information is very much outdated. You apply for DUNS number with Apple. I didn't have to go to D&B's website nor I had to pay anything to anyone for it.

I just recently did all of this but the experience was not as bad as you are describing here. I got my DUNS number in 10 minutes. The only challenging part was using a Google Voice number for the acco…

That paper wasn’t even peer reviewed. If I remember it correctly it was published in the AER Papers and Proceedings.

Reminds me of this GOP Jesus video - https://youtu.be/SZ2L-R8NgrA

If the US history tells us anything, there are never any serious consequences to any terrible things the people in power do. And thanks to the John Robert's SCOTUS, presidents now enjoy total imm…

I don't think what you are doing is dishonest. But my opinion hardly matters. My advice is to talk to your dissertation committee chair to understand whether they think it is dishonest. Further…

> (a) shortage of skilled laborers; (b) high cost of labor; and (c) exorbitantly much red tape Does the red tape also stop the Syrian refugees from working in construction? It's a genuine ques…

100%. I see more and more young people appreciating Carlin’s “it’s a big club and you ain’t in it” quote because they have come to terms with the rigged game. I think the GFC was the starkest exemplar…

Or maybe it was just learning to fly

Damn that's some nightmare! I hope you don't live in Texas.
comment
The video of the crash is quite scary. In Texas these flyovers tend to be very tall. I think the Cybertruck didn't jump over the retaining wall only because of the light pole in its way.

Got it. I will try it out.

I talked to someone who is hosting an international academic conference. Usually they have about 40% international attendees. This year it is like 3%.

Thanks for sharing that. I also checked YT for reviews and found one video that went over the set up step-by-step. I thought it looked pretty good. But I couldn't figure out whether CC has access…

I have to work for 3 hours in a place with no wifi and no power outlet twice weekly. I physically connect my iphone to the MBA and it works great. The phone stays charged 100% and the laptop drains ma…

The cheating is mostly related to homework assignments, class projects, etc. For exams, most students cheat the old-fashioned way.

> The IRS already has your W-2s, your 1099s, your brokerage statements. It knows the tax rules. For most Americans, the government could calculate their tax bill, send them a pre-filled return, and…

You had two choices: 1) read the article or 2) be racist about Indians. You chose 2. From the article: > In October, two federal judges in the US were called out for the use of AI tools which led t…

Citation needed. I have seen these kinds of assertion all my life without any evidence to back them up. For example, when I moved to the US, I was told, again without any evidence, Chinese students ch…

From the article: > In October, two federal judges in the US were called out for the use of AI tools which led to errors in their rulings. In June 2025, the High Court of England and Wales warned l…

> An amazingly powerful, affordable device that is totally locked out of being used for general purpose computing. That doesn't irritate you? I'm with you on this one. Hopefully, Tim Cook…

Comments like yours just go on to show how narrow the worldview of many HN users is. Just because you don't know how people are using their iPads doesn't mean iPads "can't do a…
