The inevitable devolution of HN's comment quality to the level of Reddit's? Sadly, it seems you're right.

That is possibly the worst analogy I've ever read on HN.

Then we're back to my initial point: they never should have started as one.

Then they should never have started. Why does every 'free' service on the Internet inevitably devolve into an ad-laden, tracker-enabled shitfest?

How's this company still in business? The entire operation seems to be a massive scam.

> I won't be voting at all, since I could care less if either Clinton or Trump get elected. That's a pretty ignorant attitude. The next President will be appointing 2-3 SCOTUS judges and a slew of Federal judges. You're to

> With this kind of officer-level illegal search and detainment, there is very very little that can be done to seek any sort of justice. If this kids mom wasn't a reporter, nobody would have heard or believed the story. Where's

Neat: a new way to waste 19 million dollars. Silicon Valley just keeps innovating.

So does the cult of caps lock, apparently. This reads like an email my crazy uncle would forward me.

We won't know whether she still does for another four months.

This is almost as bad as when people were arguing against long signatures on Usenet. https is the least of your worries in terms of overhead.

Unfortunately, the rusted-on wowsers in her district will never stop voting for her.

These days, interacting less with reddit can only be a good thing.

It also kind of depends on the crime. I would have less of an issue with these sorts of devices being used in, say, a kidnapping investigation, than I would if they were used to catch street-level drug dealers.

In the end, it's about controlling citizens and predicting their behaviour, not protecting them.

Add another reason to the massive pile of reasons I avoid everything to do with the Olympics, and have for 20 years. They get neither my attention nor my money.

It doesn't help that the developed countries want to flog off their increasingly-worthless coal reserves to developing countries.

Who are these clowns flying drones near airports, anyways?

by beedogs 10y ago
I knew those clowns couldn't have done it themselves. The FBI are more or less inept.

The vast majority of people are idiots who shouldn't be allowed to touch a computer with a barge pole, though. I don't really care what kind of experience they want.

I'm sure I'll see this on Internet Of Shit's twitter feed real soon.

I haven't seen anyone use Bitstrips since at least 2013. I thought it was finally dead. How on earth can this company be worth $100m?

I think the real problem is that we're putting people who should never be allowed near a computer, in front of a computer. I just can't understand the thought processes of anyone who lets their computer get infected by malware --
