He didn't say everybody. He said most people. It's impossible to give everybody awesome treatment, unless of course you want to pay for it.

Actually, you are likely right. If I was in Berkeley, the ANTIFA and left wingers will attack me because they can do that with impunity. Good point.

This is the Hacker News' equivalent comment of "Let them eat cake". I hope things are going well in The Capitol. Where do you suppose they would live? Under a bridge in San Francisco? Unless you are going to host them.

Weeeell, I am sure if I go to the largest White Supremacist parade or enclave I have 90%+ probability or more of making it out alive. However, if you put me in Hawija or Mosul I will have about 1% of making it out alive.

This is super interesting (car sales). I know you have probably a lot of better things to do than answering strangers' questions, but, if you could, would you mind spending 60 seconds trying to find the post and post it here?

Daryl reminds me of Ben Shapiro. Ben has (most times) flawless logic and understanding of the issues that triggers many of those, typically left wingers, who lack the same level of depth in their beliefs. I'm buying Daryl's book.

Take this advice on the "Live. Live well." But don't take the advice to focus on smoking weed or on drinking beer or recklessly driving a car, at least not only from a self-described doper. Living has consequences. The fact t

At least this is a little more creative than HP Enterprise's "new" logo: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/dc/a4/bc/dca4... I wonder how many $Ms that cost.

How much should we tax you, as a 0.1 percenter?

Agree. I would say that if they can't afford that then they are not your customer are right now. Serve the ones who can pay.

The market says a CEO deserves $100m per year. Is that wrong?

They aren't rich? Let me get my tiny violin out! It's not about whether they are rich but about whether they produce income that can be taxed to pay for the needs of the poor.

Of course it is supply and demand, but they are creating these conglomerates that inefficiently aggregate wealth into a few. All of them are part of the problem. Why are only the top 1% ones the problem? Those are the ones who created the s

I think the top 5% is not a complete source to pay for healthcare. But I think the top 15% is. Under some assumptions of incremental tax increases across the board, to distribute better and pay for healthcare needs, taxing the 80% at a flat

But why would engineers be excluded? Why should a software engineer make $250k+? S/he is just sitting in a chair typing, while the person who cleans the bathroom or make the food in FB' cafeteria gets nothing. Isn't that unfa

But didn't you have to provide your SSN to them? That would seem like a huge risk to give your SSN to some paralegal somewhere or some Wordpress plugin and MySQL unsecured database right?

I registered. I figured my data is already exposed, so this is not incremental. I got a date in mid September, so I will see what to do next then. I figure I am already exposed anyway, and the protection will be needed. Now, I wonder if it&
