Oh wow. I didn't know about the SA part. That changes everything. You could almost call that attempted murder.

Yes. People have issues with it because of Thiel's far right politics, but keep in mind what Gawker did. Publishing a sex tape is a sex crime, or damn close. Imagine if Hogan were a woman and its obvious. Imagine if they published a se

It could be a crime, but if not it is incredibly civilly actionable. Since Bezos came out other less powerful people have made similar claims. Personally I hope he bankrupts that trash rag.

This is worse than Gawker outing Thiel as gay. In this case they're attempting blackmail ahead of time, which may be a crime.

Hidden in this article is perhaps an explanation for the monstrous hyperinflation of house prices that has occurred since the early 2000s. (The housing bubble corrected in 2008 but has since at least partly re-inflated, so it never really e

It's possible that as with Keynes' advice about counter-cyclic spending the Chicago school's views on monopoly and antitrust have been distorted by politicians and lobbyists. In the case of Keynes counter-cyclic spending beca

Another thing the pricing test favored by the Chicago School doesn't consider is the effect of consolidation on entrepreneurship. Huge consolidated companies become de-facto standards that are hard to compete with for many many reasons

The only exceptions are revolutions guided by good ideas and solid values. Just "overthrow the current leaders and then (??? magic happens here ???) and then we get a better society" doesn't work. You end up where you started

Cookies date back to the late 1990s, and it's relatively easy for browsers to implement anti-tracking features that block cookies except for their respective sites and block cross-site tracking cookies. Firefox and Safari have features

There's a middle ground here. You can decide on a case by case basis how much lock-in you are willing to tolerate for a particular aspect of your system. You can also strategically design your system to minimize lock-in while still lev

From what I've read and heard I've always seen them as partial shut ins or at least deeply alienated with friends online only. I think the deeper similarity that I see is "young men who feel completely rejected or without a p

Why would they be "incel" then? There are loads of right leaning women who probably complain that there are no men who want a traditional family anymore. There are seven billion humans. If you can't find one with common value

Society seems less uniform today than ever before. There are more subcultures and belief systems than ever. All this cis/trans/gender fluid stuff is adding more normative genders, not less. As I said elsewhere I do have some issue

I don't think a philosopher or mystic who chooses a life of contemplative solitude for a period of time is at all the same phenomenon. There might be a superficial resemblance but the intellectual recluse will be thinking, meditating,

He sounds reasonable until he doesn't. My overall impression of him is that he is a mess of contradictions who is trying to have a lot of things both ways. Maybe he thinks he's searching for a synthesis but in the end he just ends

I would take him more seriously as a critic of the excesses of "PC" ideology if he weren't a believer in IQ based neo-racism and if he weren't an actual misogynist. That doesn't mean I have no problems with the APA

It sounds like they're just going with a somewhat more incremental approach, which makes a lot of sense for a system full of so many new things.

I've found that for issues that are this extremely politically polarized and where there is this much misinformation floating around, the only way to really know would be to buy a plane ticket and go there. You can't trust any sou

An even more unnerving example than Cosby from the "they were always a creep" files is Jimmy Saville, the British radio and television personality who was "later revealed to be" a serial sex abuser of virtually any sort

There are also a ton of subreddits that seem full of clinical paranoids, like the "Mandela Effect" crowd.

I don't disagree with you, but the two are not mutually exclusive. I tend to use streaming for some music but when I really love something I like to have it. It's also not that hard to organize music files and 128gb of storage is

You don't have to outright restrict. Just adding a little bit of friction will keep 90% of users away and will completely destroy adoption for any independent business. I really think it's time to drop Chrome and to campaign for o

I think a lot of Google people hang out on HN, so there's a downvote brigade for Google criticism. Same with Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, and other large or cult following tech companies.
