- darawk 8y agoAnd yet, you're here, commenting on Hackernews, when you could be donating your computer and time to the poor. Note how the authors stops at 'even millions' presumably, just shy of the order of magnitude of his own net worth. Funny how that tends to shake out: "Everyone richer than me is immoral for keeping their money".

- shawn 8y agoLol. Congratulations on being the one negative comment. I was scrolling down and down with baited breath, but there you were. I wonder if it’s possible to do anything without someone criticizing it.
