to be fair, every country i've visited/lived in pales in comparison to Germany when it comes to environmental friendliness.

yup. i'd be willing to bet that the guy who ordered it can be found in Mr. Saleh's follower/following list on instagram.

johnmarinelli | 5 years ago | on: A lot of “idiotic” things have reasonable explanations (2011)
Sure, I didn't mean to sound like I am stomping on the Dream. What I meant was, how specifically did this family that came from poverty accumulate $300k?
Quick research says that Mike Bezos worked as an engineer for Exxon after graduating college, and saving that money wisely can add up to $300k.

I don't know much about Jeff Bezos so I try to reserve my judgement about him. But I am confused - how does one come from a poor family and then receive a $300k loan from said family?

Hopefully Germany will do the same with the Bust of Nefertiti.

+1 for being a rad dad. I built a box when I was younger with my dad. Fun times.

I used to do this, but I've found that having a little bit of social accountability helps more than having absolutely zero. I like to play mysterious and make small morsels of what I work on public as time goes on

I'm sorry that my mind is in the gutter but the email reads "Solo Fap" to me, you may want to consider changing it because there are probably plenty of other lonely 20-somethings whose minds are also in the gutter

I've been working on an audiovisual project that gets data directly from Ableton Live and feeds it into my THREE.js app. You can see a couple of demos here:

Great project! I've been doing this manually on HN and found the predictions I was tracking to be totally wrong. Please continue on this project, I'm not a movie critic but I give this project two whole thumbs up.
johnmarinelli | 6 years ago | on: Ask HN: I'm a software engineer going blind, how should I prepare?
No idea on how to prepare, but one of my colleagues is blind and is one of the most detail-oriented backend engineers we have. One thing I've learned from him is that Apple products are MUCH less accessible than PC.

johnmarinelli | 6 years ago | on: April Is Canceled

i didn't mention it in the video, but the new react-three-fiber library has also been a huge help in this project
