This seems reasonable, they have a warrant and the judge seems to have considered the case fully. I don't get why so many people are advocating a world where the government can't do this. Why should your email hosting provider h

This isn't really an HN quality comment. It's dismissive, you don't make a strong point, and it's not really interesting - this is just a rehashing of a common political opinion/disagreement with Citizens United. Pl

I really don't believe that's realistic, and if you think that it's possible I would encourage you to broaden your social groups. The idea of a private company holding an election to choose my representatives is completely un

Is this what the halt state for Western civilization looks like? Very high quality of life, long lifespans, and essentially no crime, but at a cost of rampant ennui. The shrinking population thing is basically happening in every first world

Ah yes, this of course is why urban cores nationwide are so cheap and empty! Honestly though, this is your experience and nearly decade of car-hostile planning has paid dividends in cities across the country, even if it doesn't work fo

Definitely not, my rent is much less than that and I'm 10 minutes from the city in a nice part of Queens. Hip areas are expensive, but say, Staten Island is cheap af.

The Times has gone steeply downhill the last few years. It's hard to balance cost, profits, and quality - the coverage of local issues in particular is weirdly off. Sometimes it can feel like someone in Oregon describing my neighborhoo

I agree - even with the VSCode stuff, they're missing their major competitive advantage: Visual Studio.

I feel like it's coming back as the "just use this" after the flashes in the pan of the last few years. C# seemed like it had a shot at the throne but the ecosystem is in deep disarray these days, tooling wise.

One of my colleagues constantly taps my headphones during webmeetings when they want to hang out. Drives me bonkers. Maybe it's half that we don't have societal etiquette around open offices.

You are incorrect. Brooklyn and Queens have subway networks that are each larger than the next largest subway networks in the US. Brooklyn has a slightly better network than Queens, but both are fantastic. Eastern Queens (after the end of t

Yeah but I bet you can't name 15 cities larger than LA that depend on an outdated tech like trains. When's the last time you saw one of those at TechCrunch Disrupt? Seriously though, this is a solved problem everywhere but major U

But the article is talking about the top 49 non-music channels (so Vevo is excluded). I would agree with you - my behavior has shifted from Youtube to Spotify - but this is channels like PewDePie losing views. It seems to be something algor

IG has copied a ton of Snap features outright, and this is Snap firing back at Facebook. They're essentially the same thing, but Snapchat seems to be dying. They tie into life because they let people announce things, show what their up

I really, really wish that was true. I have done a ton of work with the homeless, and so many have very serious mental health issues. Where I worked, we had a holistic approach with therapists, case workers, social workers (for benefits and

I promise you, that is a harmful and completely untrue conspiracy theory. Please, please do not discourage people from seeking help. The people I know that go on meds and get therapy have flourished, those afraid to - often because of half-

Are you sure that it's not sitting in a bullpen next to the sales guys? I know that ducking footballs and ignoring constant shouting really make me and the other 20 devs here more productive.
