What is the end use of this product? I’m a commercial printer. I discourage clients from printing business cards. It’s an archaic form of networking. A paper based card is a waste of resources, both natural, chemical and labor. As a pcb board even more so. Please. If you have a mobile phone ask the person for their number and text them your info. Now you have a meaningful connection.


My first company after college would issue business cards to anyone for free if you filled out a form. It felt amazing. So far the only thing I've ever used them for is spreading thermal paste. I agree with you, the idea of business cards is so much more appealing than the reality.


I also dropped them into those restaurant fishbowls which claimed the winner would get a free soda or something. Hundreds of business cards, no free soda.


Instructions unclear. Will hand out burner phones with my phone number in the contacts in lieu of business cards.


Got ideas? I’m interested.


Would you mind sharing a few sites, I’m interested. Thx.


Game over for investigative journalists? Or did that train leave a long time already?


Once Hillary said anyone in possession of the torrent files would be charged with treason it was pretty much over.


Hold a moment. A politician called out publicly the following phrase: “Gas chamber for President Duda and Premier Kaczynski.” This, by any measure, is considered Hate Speech as it calls for extreme violence, ask any Jew or Pole who stayed or visited Auschwitz.

I think the fact that there had been no outrage reaction to his public demonstration of extreme violence and a call for his resignation means that people no longer remember what a great technological bathroom invention the German people developed in the early 1940s called “The Shower Chamber” which was provided free of charge to travellers exiting the trains upon arrival at Auschwitz.

Therefore, it is my opinion that this spot is a great way to reboot and restart the holocaust education of young and old people everywhere to ensure no person utters such Hateful words to another human being on earth.


> A politician called out publicly

Not a politician but a journalist...

> the following phrase: “Gas chamber for President Duda and Premier Kaczynski.”

... except he wrote it in Polish, not English, using the word "komora" that means both a [prison] cell and a [gas] chamber.

He also clarified later that he meant a [prison] cell, deleted his tweet, and apologized.

All of this is clearly outlined in TLA, which unfortunately you didn't bother to read.


@scythe two thumbs up. Amazing how blind the majority is even though they have black on white spelled out in front of them.


Kindle Paperwhite continues to serve me well for ten years of daily reading. I upload pdfs, various doc formats and all my ebooks to it all the time by simply emailing the file to Amazon’s whisper service which you get automatically with the kindle purchase.

No, it is not a note-taking device although short notes for highlighted text may be done. It is a reading device. And I highly recommend it.


These types of internet attacks amount to nothing but advertising revenue for media companies, as mentioned by many commenters; however, they occur during war time which means they are considered a direct attack, just as if a rocket had been launched, which makes the offender state an enemy engaged in the war. Everyone must consider the risk factor of such attacks as retaliation is imminent and much more severe.

I am more than sure Putin’s army has been preparing for all scenarios for years.


HN folks are all pseudo, amateur, professional scientists of all fields, at least that’s what I pickup from the conversations. A true scientist, ex. Marie Skłodowska-Curie, will perform every kind of test possible to ensure he gets to the truth. Here’s a scientific test for COVID: turn off all media, news and information sharing apps for 3-5 days, report daily your findings, continue with the test after 5 days if no abnormalities detected. Share your results with others.


Because they don’t have vaccines.
