I was still a rule following shepherd led church loving schoolboy back then. So no. I was the zombie back then, so I never formed those memories to member.

I've never seen anything like mass formation psychosis until now. It truly is astonishing to see how many people can be so easily hypnotized with the right application of fear and hope.

Not just uncomfortable, the shape doesn't even tell your hand which way is up. Every time I went back and forth between typing and moving the mouse, I would drag it slightly off axis.

Its ludicrous exactly how curated the news from "reputable" sources are getting. Oh, the largest truck gathering protesting the mandate and instead we're going to cover this one man who died refusing to get a vaccine to try a

Most HNers don't even read the article they comment on. In this case only a dozen tweets. But I still don't think half of them read through it given the comments I see.

People buy expensive art because its popular. They also do nothing but stare at it every once in a while. Is that intrinsic value? Because if that is, then so is crypto.

> Crypto so far is largely a vast space with little intrinsic value. So was pokemon. By my definition that's a crap game even without crypto. But millions of people have fun playing it and its a big part of their lives, so who am

Immunized against what exactly though? Is there even one thing about owning crypto that people need protection from? Its an asset class like any other and if you want an NFT buy an NFT. If you want to buy a pokemon card, buy a pokemon card

HN has foundations in math and engineering so I don't think it would collapse as easily. In real life it would be more akin to a developer convention. There would be purpose and connection to the shared reality. It wouldn't sur

Inflation as a way of life is living with a mercurial definition of a measuring stick for the promise of economic stability provided by someone else. Personally I'd say its a lot worse.

This perspective of blaming the motive of the perpetrator instead of the perpetrator itself leads to blurred lines of judgement that makes establishing common rules impossible. If you have ever caught someone doing something evil, you woul

Watch it again. The interviewer wasn't even trying to be mean. The argument just crumbled in on itself in the atmospheric pressure of the real world.

Just adding onto this argument. Reddit moderators just don't know how to take criticism. The lately famous /r/antiwork just had a moment. I tried to find the post where they were banning every dissenting opinion, but the th

The individuals chose it for themselves. Yes very selfish indeed. Selfishness when it concern's ones own self is very much a good thing. Its being able to stand ones's ground. But what's even more selfish is imposing one&#

Herd immunity is for the herd. The US is where it is because we have individuals willing to fight for individual rights. If casualty of individuals is the cost to keep individuality in this country then I say let it be. The vaccinated are

Sounds like a case of decision delegation. I wonder if anything like this exists in the corporate sphere.

But isn't building the system (0 to 1), harder than scaling (1 to 100)? Why do they need all the engineers now?

I think this is what OP is getting at. Its a question of maximizing the number of saved persons vs saving the individual. Mandating vaccines is a case of choosing to maximize numbers over saving a person. You might say they are the same th

Yes. It's incredible narcissism on the part of those that propose vaccination of other people for their own protection, or in the name of protecting others. If someone wants to protect themselves from the virus, let them take the va

Yes, but Apple could make their iMessage features available to non IOS products if their goal was to create a non-discriminatory messaging platform. They've had many many years to do this. Its simply not part of their plan. Their pla

Lets at least realize that Apple could easily have a department that develops a broader iMessage app, or release an imessage api, that can be used outside of its apple products to reduce the purported discrimination against SMS messages. Th
