In the sense that the center is where the action is, and votes are, and the left and right fringes attract too much attention and influence.

Your assumptions are wrong. Kamala lost because of inflation during the Biden admin and some related missteps. Also her gender and skin color likely worked against her. Also you're misreading my point, campaigning on these things isn&#

Part of the courage needed is not pandering to the left.

Instead of getting tangled up in social issues, liberal politicians should be prioritizing housing, infrastructure and government services supporting people's economic activity of all kinds. Delivering better lives for people, and havi

Because HN has become much like X, with an aggressive pro Trump element abusing the system. People claim it's because its due to "irrelevant politics" but HN is probably 70% off topic subjects, tangentially connected to tech,

Denying due process for these sorts of incidents is a hallmark of the current administration. Central to it is vilification of immigrants and false association with terrorists.

Why don't you address the point instead of prevaricating? The narrative you're describing is not based on any facts but simple hate for the EU. Rejecting the plain facts doesn't help you.

You're misrepresenting what the link says, and it doesn't even apply to bananas. What is does say is that certain fruits and vegetables don't benefit from "minimum marketing standards" and some misshapen products ma

War is the consequence of a lack of defense, not the opposite. Nothing could illustrates that more than the period since 1947 and the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Never has the world been so heavily armed. We have nukes that can wipe each o

Thats a good way to approach it, essentially customise your view of HN. The front page is pretty ordinary most of the time because of uninteresting items, or interesting items have fallen off. Of course the problem with flagging is it disto

No I'm not, I'm saying this particular subject should not be treated differently. I only reference politics because it's other people's focus, or excuse for censoring.

Whatever you think about Musk or Trump, it's very strange that government officials are pushing each other's stock. It's a hard sell you'd expect from a boiler room: "It's unbelievable that this guy's stoc

Your empty smear just reinforces his point. Those who are in the "out" group get one treatment, the "in" group gets the opposite.

Expect this post, and any even obliquely critical of Musk or Trump, to be flagged into oblivion. I've tried to not be cynical but it's bleedingly obvious that there are a group of Musk/Trump supporters here flagging these pos

I agree, but I'm wondering if Google are really going to allow people to have 3TB of storage free in perpetuity on a standard 200 user account. I guess people with unlimited users might create even larger pools.

It's good policy. I could go into detail but the short version is we live on a single planet, what goes around comes around. Some people think the US can isolate itself and not worry about what the rest of the world does or thinks, but

It's infectious and deadly, it actually doesn't have to do anything more to scare the bejesus out of people and have profound social and economic effects, should it show up in numbers in the future.
