A Unique, High-Tech (Family) Computer

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-20 00:13:04

There’s a concept that many people have tried, with varying effects: the “educational computer”, a device that a parent can buy for their children to learn the basics of the computer, which everyone will need to know in the future, and can also play games, so the children will actually want to use it. These have ranged from plasticky VTech toys with little more than an electronic organizer, to the Wonder Computer of the 1980’s, the Commodore VIC-20, which was a full computer. This is a prime mar

Leah Feiger: I think the thing that really got me about this study and from Will's excellent write-up is that the main thing that you do in these entry-level jobs is figure out how to be a real human and how to live in an adult world and how to respond to emails and show up places on time. I think we have to actually be a little bit more forward-thinking.

Ford and the Birth of the Model T

news.ycombinator.com Brian Potter 2025-10-17 18:52:48

This is an excerpt from my forthcoming book, The Origins of Efficiency, out September 23rd. Ford’s status as a large-volume car producer began with the predecessor to the Model T: the Model N, a four-cylinder, two-seater car initially priced at $500. At the time, the average car in the US cost more than $2,000, and it seemed nearly unimaginable that a car with the capabilities of the Model N could cost so little. In 1906, the year the Model N was introduced, Ford sold 8,500 of them, making the

My phone is an ereader now I got a Kobo in 2016 after borrowing my mom's old one for a year before that. It probably is responsible for getting me reading again after high school. I used to be an avid reader, the sort of kid who would have to be told to put down the book and go to sleep, and who would then creep slowly to the bookshelf to pick it up again without arousing suspicion after the light had been turned out.

This double feature contains The Babysitter Lives and Killer on the Road, the first being a story about a night of babysitting gone horribly, supernaturally wrong on the eve of Halloween, and the latter a road trip from hell situation in which a hitchhiker-targeting serial killer sets his sights on a run

Olympiads are international student intellectual competitions in which students from across the world go toe-to-toe answering questions in mathematics, physics, informatics, chemistry, and more.

This ‘Magical’ Material That Dissolves Like Candy Is Exactly What EVs Have Been Missing

The irony of eco-friendly electric vehicles is the mountainous load of electronic waste they produce. So far, most targeted efforts to recycle EV batteries have been expensive and chemically toxic—and they haven’t stuck. That could change soon, however, thanks to a promising breakthrough from MIT.

The Mic 2 has been my own go-to wireless microphone (bought with my own money, no less) for over a year now, and it still feels new to me. What could justify yet another iteration so soon? It took about five seconds with the Mic 3 in my hands to understand exactly what DJI was thinking.
