It is obviously not the case that women are equal in our society. Additionally, then, my town shouldn't have a big placard that says "home of Olympic gold medalist [some person]" since obviously being from my town is equal to

When people say things like: > The only strange word is schuleþ itself it makes me think Middle English is not easy at all. Out of the entire sentence I unambiguously recognize "to," "that/þat" and "men&quot

I think the point is the poetry of the contrast, the two extremes. The fact that she was the first woman in space is what makes her notable, not the fact that she was the first woman to be in both space and the bottom of the ocean. If it wa

Shareholders are not rational, and CEOs believe shareholders to be even more irrational than they actually are. There's plenty of research showing that CEOs do things they think looks good to investors, despite evidence to the contrary

Intelligent life seems rare on Earth. We all seem to like it a lot, but we're the only ones in the entire history of Earth, we've not been around for very long, and we seem to be slowly sabotaging our existence. How far could some

Just earlier this month, protestors a stat over adorned rifles and threatened the governor. This time, the police are ready to teargas and beat anyone for any reason. The response doesn't seem the same. They've turned protests int

Sure, but there's also culture and things go in and out of fashion and ideas go varying level of viral, too. I have certainly seen a post become popular and decide that an essay I read which has some passing similarity might likewise b

They're symbolic, not realistic. The only reason they wear a black hoodie is because a striped black and white shirt with a black masquarade mask is because it's too silly.

My guess is its one of those style over substance articles, like something by David Sedaris. Not really something we're used to on hackernews where we expect the author to argue X is bad, or we need more Y. The point is entertainment o

Even if the word isn't that bad inherently, the racist and dismissive way that its used in practice makes it a very foolish word to use if you're trying to connect with people rather than alienate them.

It's really weird when you hear people saying things like: > disbelief is not an option. The results are not made up, nor are they statistical flukes. You have no choice but to accept that the major conclusions of these studies are

The Iliad was the crowning achievement of a literary society with hundreds of years of tradition. Doom was a simple and early innovator. At best, it will be remembered in the way that some fairy tales are: the beginning of a trope, or right

It's possible that while AirBnB increased demand for housing, the market could have responded by building and allocating more real estate to housing, resulting in an equilibrium. So it is at least plausible to me that an implosion of

Most people are already familiar with procedural programming. If you want to grow as a developer, don't just learn more of the same, learns something that challenges you to work in a different way. If I only knew functional programming

After trying a few to get a handle on things, I decided to make guesses based solely on if the sentence makes coherent sense. I judged 14 quotes before getting a repeat, having gotten 13 wrong and only 1 right. Now, if it was 50/50, I&

I worked for a small, mostly-remote company that had regular DOTA breaks. The boss would be in a heated phone call, then stop mid-sentence and be like "shit, I have to leave for DOTA."

Ah! I've been saying we should do this for years now. Everyone in the cloud space is reinventing the wheel when what we need is a cloud OS that abstracts away multiple computers. I can see a bright future for a project like this.

The problem is that you want to control your users, but when and how they upgrade is frankly none of your damned business. This busybody attitude has proliferated in software and it's an unfortunate direction our culture is going in. F

Maybe I responded too strongly, based on other things I've read on other sites. "Currently unfounded" might have been a better way to phrase it.

Unfortunately to say, the President of the United States is not a reliable source. US intelligence agencies said Trump is wrong, and without any further evidence, it should be placed in the conspiracy theory category.

I don't think it's that bad. "is" shouldn't be used for equality like that and most people won't think to because it's weird. Maybe they should have named it __is__ so people know it's a scary operati

I've heard about these kinds of practices anecdotally. We really need some anti-trust action in the US. We have these laws that give the federal government a lot of power to force companies to play fair, but we don't use them beca
