How did you break the constant need to touch your face? I tried to do that, and in 5 minutes I am back in touching some part of my face.

I recently changed my relation with video games. I used to play a lot of FIFA (or Football Manager), which are games who are just here to entertain yourself, but there is no backstory at all. Now I see video games as reading a book, or watching a great movie: focus on the story, the art design, the sound design, and the experience in general.

I still play a bit of FIFA, but I reserve it to my social time (even though I find that FIFA create a lot of tensions, while Mario Kart is funnier to play, and the level to be competent is lower).

The problem with most of IAP games are that they are in the same category than FIFA or FM. There is little backstory. While paying upfront for a game (on mobile, a dozen of great games exists, and you can play some of them during short period of time like Limbo...) create a sense of connection with the game, because you invest money in it, and you are ready to really invest time in it. On the opposite, IAP are games where the goal is to make you play as much as possible, to pay as much as possible.

How can a single coin attain $100,000 ?

As someone who has dozens of thousands of dollars (not in Bitcoin, I sold some of them) on an exchange, what should I do with that money ? Should I ask the website to verse everything on my bank account ?

I seconding you on that. The material design (MD) seems to be empty of my computer. I think Google right now is confusing the ability to read a website with a smartphone, and the ability to read a website with a computer. Sure, MD looks great on my phone, but I also love to use Google products on my computer (and I use them mostly on my computer).

To give a scale, Tesla has more than 30 000 employees [1]. That is just a little above 1%.

I think that some people in the recent years only sees him as a some porno-king, while, as Larry Flint, he was a leader on a lot of conflictual subjects. Some of the interviews in Playboy are also legendary (I am thinking about the one with Larry Page & Sergey Brin, and the one with Steve Jobs).

Ok, I am not be the "usual" reader of Hacker News (HN). I am reading HN since 2012 for disclaimer.

So basically, Facebook (FB) is for socializing in real life. Since I am currently in exchange, It is useful to create parties and to invite people to them. It is also useful to talk with your friend on the other side of the earth (more than Whatsapp), to keep up to date with them. And it is also the best way to get into groups, to exchange ideas, or into the group of your university.

So basically, FB is my social life. Do I like that ? No. But would i have a social life without FB ? No. Most of the people here are seeing FB as the devil, but it helps me to invite to parties girls I want to hang out with or get invited to parties, and since everyone (or most of the people, more most of the people) are looking for raising their number of friends on Facebook, it is really useful to connect with new peoples. But, yes, I am invited to parties without FB, but not as much.

Also, for group projects, it is the closest thing to Slack for College students.

So as much as I hate FB, it is really useful, sadly.

Ok, I a

Being able to pay someone, being able to command something out of the app. Being more like WeChat, literally.

Is the code open source ? I live in Europe, and it would be great if, with the same product, we could choose the time at which we want the news to be delivered, and the language in which we want it delivered.

They also still use Lync on Windows, but it is unusable. Most of the teams in the company I am working for right now are either using Slack or Hipchat.

Well, Lin-Manuel Miranda won a Pulitzer for Hamilton. There is more than just journalists who can be awarded a Pulitzer Prize. For the full list, see the Wikipedia : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulitzer_Prize#Categories

Tallinn is a very small city. When I travel, I love to walk alone in the city during the night, and despite a few big buildings (mainly hotels), Tallinn does not look that much futuristic.

Their targeted customer are the kind of people of want these kind of products. But if the only exclusivity of the product is about being rich, and all my others friends are rich, where is the exclusivity ?

How much companies have succeeded at reinventing themselves after a scandal ?

I did the same than him, and I had to recreate a facebook account. Reason n°1 were for group project : 90% of the people seems to have forgotten how email is working Reason n°2 were for the associations i am part of.

But I definitely missed last year (scholastically), and i feel that all the social network are addictive, so I am trying to avoid them (I only use Facebook through Messenger, I don't have Twitter, but it never took off in my country, Snapchat). I also don't use Youtube, because it is for me the television of the 21st century.

I am going back to college in 2 weeks, and I am slowly deleting all of my last online accounts.

Your link does not seems to work for me, but after a small Wikipedia research : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_sex_ratio

On another note, the ratio for Arabic countries in the peninsula are quite fucked up. If you see the TV show "Generation Kill" from HBO, the character played by James Ranson has a theory, which is quite interesting watching the numbers : there would not be a single war if there was enough women in the Arabic Peninsula.

> Excessive use of anything tends to be bad.

Many of those 'alarming' articles are mainly studying the point from where the use of anything is dangerous for our health. It is easy to get the numbers and to publish, and the website gets a clickbait.

It's widely knew that too much coffee is dangerous. But a normal dose has plenty of benefits, and a lot of research supports both points.

Il y a plus de 200 écoles qui sont des grandes écoles, donc ça n'a plus vraiment de signification. Si tu devrais le refaire une nouvelle fois, qu'est ce que tu conseillerais, et dans quel pays te serais tu installé?
