Thanks for the info I always wondered what was going on there. I've gone to Gabriella's in the mission a number of times. It's one of the only authentic New York slices you can get in the city for people who crave the taste o

Just picked up our Model Y yesterday. For us, it was the only EV with these properties: 1. Small enough to reasonable park in a dense city 2. Has 7 seats, so we can drive with 2 kids, Grandma, and some of the kids friends 3. Has 300

You could have just asked for the story rather than make one up. A homeless guy on a street full of druggies near Frankfurt hbh asked for a euro and I said no I can't help you. He walked directly to a spot nearby where he kept a knife,

I also came terrifyingly close to becoming a stab victim in Frankfurt. Those blocks around the train station are as hard as any place I've been.

The point your rhetorical question tries to drive home is bad which is why other commenters didn't let it sit. Thanks to dang hacker news has rules of conduct that prevent this place from degenerating into a cesspool, but now that anot

Laughing in bed because I always assumed I was the only one using froggy as my flexbox reference material. The worst is when you get angry and start blaming the frog for its lies. As if it's the frog's fault...

I think you're stuffing more meaning into my statement than I intended: I intentionally qualified the statement to the financial perspective only in which case it's appropriate to talk about assets and liabilities. I say this as a

Financially speaking, kids are an asset in non-industrialized societies, especially farming societies. But they are a liability in industrialized ones. I think that transition from asset to liability for nations undergoing industrialization

Wait so after a lecture on the principles of, say, kinematics you would then be able to nail an exam that required you to compute against those principles? I think that's unusual. For me in class even if I could follow the teacher perf

The court disagreed that the term was an exaggeration, and the fact that, as you note, not all undercover journalism is called this way in court should hopefully send a signal that there's something real you are choosing not to see tha

I disagree with your reading of the evidence and agree with the reading of the presiding judge. But I included the root document so that the rest of the thread can form an opinion. In all, starting from the court's high bar of impartia

Readers in the thread should reference a few relevant resources before accepting the "honest, hard-nosed journalism" description of project Veritas proposed by fidgewidge. Consider that they are also a political spying organizatio

Why? Because "emotional mistreatment" is a catch-all term. For example, it's easy to make the argument that time-out, a common negative reinforcement strategy among parents, constitutes emotional mistreatment. After all it is

by Erem 4y ago
By this definition, depending on who gets to define "mistreatment", any negative reinforcement at all would count as abuse, not just corporal punishment.

Curious about the homeless rates in Miami vs SF, I used the links at the bottom of this comment to estimate 1570 homeless living in Miami city limits vs 7754 living in SF. With SF's larger population, this corresponds to a 0.35% homele

Save your sympathy? Sympathy isn't a coin purse from which you judiciously spend and save. It's just a perspective on how you choose to view the world. You get to choose -- are you going to view the world from the perspective of p

The fantasy wasn't that weird. They drew a compelling scene that complemented the shocking lack of empathy in your comment.

The employees don't deserve basic human empathy because the company wasn't technically amazing and made no profit? In what twisted world view does that make any sense?

It is highly disputed among Christians that our holy books claim the God-imbued soul begins at conception as opposed to the first breath. Yet you are asking every citizen in a diverse nation of 300M to abide by your embattled interpretation
