And quite distasteful when many people have collaborated on your software. If you deserve some compensation, what about all of them? Will you share whatever you earn from it?

What's the need of stigmatizing these people? If they did wrong, they have been fired for it. They don't need to be permanently punished for a mistake. That won't help anyone.

I wouldn't compare HN with Twitter. On HN barely anyone would give you a nasty response (in my case, I rarely even check the name of the commenter, which is easy due to the lack of avatars and all, so I have even less reasons to take a

Sadly it's an unhealthy profession. Spending 8 hours a day sitting on a chair with your neck fixed in the same position watching a screen harms your body a lot, even if you try to keep a good posture and do stretches from time to time.

It's bad for other reasons. What I'm criticizing is clamming to be an adaptation of the books when it doesn't even get the most fundamental thing of the book right. > You’re disappointed because you have set expectations T

I don't know why people keep saying that, since the books were narrated as a documentary, it's impossible to do a decent show about it. That's lack of imagination in my opinion. It would have been easily adapted with mini sto

If my memory serves me right, Foundation was never about individuals but collectives. That's what psychohistory math was about. The show fails completely to transmit this idea which for me, is the core of the books. So if they don&#x27

The less I want is to defend Facebook but I think lately people don't want to acknowledge their own responsibilities. It's like every time there is a problem, the cause is someone/something else. I don't think Instagram

For some reason I don't know, the Japanese entertainment industry is quite against globalization. I don't know if it's the fear of losing control over their product (through digital copies) or an archaic mindset. They have a
