this is the classic pattern that has been used by ecommerce sites for over a decade now. Once the checkout process starts, the number of links that may distract your checkout process drops dramatically.

it will be impossible to park another car close to a self driving vehicle - it will always move away.

BanzaiTokyo | 8 years ago | on: Developers who use spaces make more money than those who use tabs

that would be the most logical explanation, but the article mentions that "The effect is smaller in Europe and especially large in India, but it does appear within each country, suggesting this isn’t the sole confounding factor." Which makes me think that there are other factors at play that add up.

I think a website falls into the category of things that you can use.

BanzaiTokyo | 8 years ago | on: Ask HN: What are some examples of successful single-person businesses?

I suppose there is very little public information about such companies because they have no obligations of sharing it.

"No" what? Could you explain what do you mean by that. Just to be clear, I didn't make any statements about control.

borderline industries such as drug and gun production are heavily licensed and controlled by the state. I believe this case should fall into a similar category.

if you can find a Sony DPS, just buy it. If you are thinking about buying one, you should get one.

BanzaiTokyo | 9 years ago | on: Understanding Aesthetics with Deep Learning

I believe that there are factors that go beyond visible composition. Just a though experiment, I imagine that the brain would evaluate easthetics of two similar images differently depending on whether it is an image of an object it recognizes or not - when evaluating the image with an object other qualities of the object (that are not necessarily visible in the image) will be taken into account.
