Yeah, noticed that too. I think humans are playing life like I used to play chess or even Civilization: like an FPS (first person shooter) game. Don't think more than a single step ahead, just shoot at the first thing that you see! T

If he knows how Trump has influence on Medium's business he didn't show it. I'm more than eager to hear that storyline. I would be interested in something more concrete than the numerous "the sky is falling" article

I don't see how anything "Trump" has anything to do with Medium and publishing on the Internet except by the most far-fetched and useless " everything is connected" kind of argument.

People who like modern UIs greatly outnumber people who like ones from the '90s. Maybe initially when the fancy graphics grab their attention. But as they start to work their brains notice the "fancy" less and less

It's like hitting someone very hard on the head and then apologizing. The damage is already done - 90% of the people who read the headlines won't notice the retraction. So preventing false headlines should have far greater priorit

With that attitude you can just pipe /dev/random to the comment section. What's the use of your comments if they contain nothing ob substance? Rhetorical question. I think /r/politics on reddit is far better suited

Source? Not just an opinion please, I mean an actual source - with facts, figures, data. Also, you would have to define what you actually mean by "better" (as well as what "fresh start" really means). Details. What kin

I don't agree with the idea that people, and society, are completely impermeable to analysis. Nice strawman - I never said that. This is just like medicine: You can theorize all you want, but in the end only a clinical trial

Coin flips are actually okay when you don't know something: Create many small experiments instead of trying the "world formula" solution. Also, create an environment where responsibility and decision making authority is as lo

You don't say a word if your parents use an Asian language interface? That's the parent's point, not Linux upgrades in general.

I'm not sure about it, but I think a restaurant owner I once knew told me that the German "Finanzamt" (tax authority) calculates what the average amount of tips should be for any given restaurant based on the data they have (

To clarify: My comment is in support of the parent. Could the downvoters please explain what they think is wrong that I add MORE information and a link to an extended explanation??

You are very, very confused about what is likely vs. what is merely possible.

Is the existence of a trust fund actually relevant for the story? Whether there was one or not, as you already said, Gates didn't have to fear failure. I doubt the family would have let him live in poverty on the street if he had faile

I think your comment is downvoted mostly for wasting precious comment space: You didn't say anything. People don't come to HN only to have to wade through layers of nothing, this isn't reddit or some major newspaper comment s

I'm not sure how you're calculating that DB regularly offers a trial BahnCard 25 special. Right now for 16 Euros. It is valid for three months - don't forget to cancel right away (right when you get it) or it's a

I always cancel immediately when I get a BC "BahnCard" (same day or week), these days usually the trial 25% version (3 months, automatic 1 year subscription if you don't cancel). It used to be pretty bad but nowadays you can

That's not what I meant. You didn't detach the subthread - you detached the thread and a sub-subthread but left another sub-subthread - my post - and now it has become the top-comment, replacing the former comment it was a reply t

Why do you mention a random country's police? For the record, the buyer... with a shipping address... New Castle, DE 19726-2079, United States. Both buyer and seller are located in the US.

So I checked in an anonymous window to see what you did - you moved the parent post and some of its sub-posts, but my reply to the guy still is here, now as top-level comment without context. That makes no sense!

I am seriously suggesting that a Senior Commenter would produce more intelligent and more enjoyable content compared to the no-effort nonsense you managed to come up with. Have a nice day.

That is a common phrase in ergonomics. I myself don't speak any Latin apart from a handful of phrases, like et al, et ceterea, pecunia non olet... - the usual stuff that I think most people have been exposed to. And "ceteris parib
