They can't. My business is manufacturing for wholesale, nothing whatsoever to do with computers.
These kinds of over-generalizations and FUD only serve to reduce your credibility.
- daveidol 5y agoI think it was implied they meant tech businesses, seeing as this is Hacker News
- Kbelicius 5y agoIt is beneficial to all participants of a forum if everybody payed attention to context in which something is said. You aren't doing that here.
- eklavya 5y agoOn the contrary, these kind of extremely obvious knowledge bits destroy your credibility.

- ClumsyPilot 5y ago> Earth is round... No it's not, it's an oblate spheroid! These kinds of over-generalisations and FUD only serve to reduce your credibility. Now I can't take your warning about climate change seriously!
- sombremesa 5y agoHuh, and I thought people on this forum were smart and would not stand for obvious FUD. Personally I’d never choose to use rhetoric like this. (“My life is in danger because of X, and so is YOURS!”/“They are coming for you and yours next!”) - that’s the kind of thing leads to the worst of humanity. Good for you if you like that (and who wouldn’t, when you have a personal hatred of X, right?), but some people have to stand against it.
- ClumsyPilot 5y ago> that’s the kind of thing leads to the worst of humanity I think most people are perfectly capable of processing this statement correctly, it's up their with 'videogames cause crime and violence'.
