Thanks, but not the one I'm looking for. Its from a few years ago, made it to the top of HN and had lots of comments to go with it.
The reason I remember it is because there was an implication of influencing the subconscious somehow. The first few lines didn't seem to be very pointed or hard hitting or driving a conclusion, but were terribly important in influencing the outcome for the person reading the article.
Honestly I just wish they'd give him a clicker for the presentation. He was like this for the neuralink reveal but at least then he had other people talking to add some structure.
Golly. Persistent live usb has been a thing for like, ever right?
It makes me feel a little bit like open source projects aren't doing documentation right when someone could have easily googled for this if they only knew the right vocabulary.
But, I'm not super worried about having lost this specific person since they're so quick to call linux as a whole "crap" and developers "stupid." Maybe after undergrad and some time in the field they will come around.

Not only that, but it's definitely possible to install, e.g. Debian onto an external drive and not touch the internal bootloader. It seems that the author ran into a limitation with either Linux Mint or perhaps Ubuntu.
Interesting, wonder if that's how they are up and running faster then. I was wondering since I know California has their huge rail project, but missing deadlines and might even have to payback federal funds.
Was also reading Miami has a trolly, the MetroMover and also one of the talk walkable areas. Kinda didn't realize they were that invested in public transport but I guess it is a huge tourist area. Plus also a top walkable city too, however I know other parts of FL is very bad for walkability, was reading that Broward County for example issued hundreds of erroneously jaywalking tickets and also infrastructure for pedestrians were poorly built, such as lacking sidewalks.
Seems like Broward County is one of the most mismanaged parts of FL. Was just curious and looking on the website and if you want to dispute a ticket without showing up, you have to purchase a form "Affidavit of Defense" and then the site to download it says "IMPORTANT NOTICE: All Report and Form Downloads are compressed in a file with an “exe” extension and are available for download within 7 days. If you are not using a Windows Operating System you may not be able to complete the download process or access the contents in the download file."... Wow seems so outdated, have to download a exe? Why not just offer PDFs... I guess Mac users are screwed unless they run a VM. I wonder if library computers would even let you do that, since some block running your own programs. Also seems horrible they charge for digital forms which should be free and cost literally nothing to offer for a download. Wonder if other parts of the US is this backwards.
One of the things I want when I move, walkable would be nice. I think people would be much more healthier if didn't drive everywhere, and then of course it's warm there. Hurricanes is a worry though but does seem like a great area. But it seems like my mind of where I want to move changes a bunch over the years... Seems like like no place is perfect though, part of me dreams of being a nomad traveling full time earning money passively from investments or owning a business managing it remotely.
The buildings are 4 blocks apart but there aren't many buildings the same height as those two between them (maybe the Radisson and Marriot). Obviously some of the more significant buildings on the Minneapolis skyline. The answer is obvious.
I wonder if making sure your site is readable without JS also has the effect of making your site more legible to screen dictation. I haven't met many web devs who make accessibility a primary concern. Mozilla seems to note that heavy reliance on JS can break accessibility.
