Who are these "scholars" exactly? The only reference I could find is Jim Mattis, and the context was very specific when he said that. Furthermore, this is a "what if" scenario since tactical nukes have never been used.

Nuclear vs conventional and tactical vs strategic are 2 very different things. There absolutely are tactical nuclear bombs.

OK, so I'm right. They are specifically talking about the contribution to the EU budget that would remain at home. They did not talk about the economy as a whole. There is no "heavily implied". Other replies are hilarious,

Reading is hard I guess. I'm saying Brexit was not sold as being positive for the economy. Yes the bus probably existed, and as I said, the argument was made that the excess in EU contribution would be spent domestically instead. Bu

This is incorrect, the official Vote Leave campaign focused very heavily on immigration and overall sovereignty. Remain was the campaign highlighting risks for the economy. Of course the argument was made re: EU contributions staying "

I like posts like this one because they are completely reasonable, perfectly accurate and easy to prove with links to articles, etc, and yet get downvoted because they dare to question TheMessage. HN resisted a long time compared to Reddit

I can see the shelves, kind of, but seriously, $2000 for a simple table seems very hard to justify.

OK, I have something similar with an L-shaped desk, one "leg" is my monitor/keyboard/blabla and the other side is where I write, read, build models, do non-computer hobbies. OK. I don't think people are too (d|n)um

How is it "rude" and "terrible" (dramatic much?) to infer a loose profile from someone based on what they willingly decide to share with the world? Maybe parent is wrong, but that's their perception of the author b

I got to admit, whoever at the town hall or whatever sent the cop to this woman's door really has some balls considering the color of the water. I feel like when this is the water your citizens get out of the faucet you should be b

The difference with Europe may be that in this case the charges have already been dropped. Not saying it's great, but at least it was stopped, and she may sue for reparations. I don't think the "hateful posts" cases in

At this point you barely "make the decision". They train and train and train to the point where it's automatic as soon as they know there's no way to avoid the crash.

Hum, I don't know man, I'm always up for venting the stupidity of the world, but this looks very shallow and naive. I can imagine that the world has always been complicated for "the normal guy kind of close to the bottom&quot

Totally unrelated pet peeve of mine, I hate when people write this: "MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery)". You first use the full words and then introduce the acronym that you're going to use in

Is your argument that companies would be forced to obey the laws if they are mandated to open source discontinued games? And it's a... bad thing?

I have to say, I took a one year break from HN and only came back a few weeks ago, and I'm astonished to see how "garbagey" it is now. We're not yet at Reddit level but it does feel very different from a year ago.

Done this a long time ago. It wasn't prices that drove me away from Netflix and Co. It was how old contents started to be "updated" for "modern audiences/values", and how movies/shows kept being moved ar

I cannot tell if it's satire. The writing gave me a literal headache.

I couldn't make it through the whole story because the hum... "writing" (?) gives me a headache. He's a horrible person just for writing like this.

Sure, it is well known that in a divorce women just walk away with nothing /s A quick google search shows you that the average is 50/50 when it comes to the division of the assets. Why do you feel the need to lie about something s

The difference is the "de facto" advantages - provided by nature for example - and "de jure" advantages - when the law is not the same for everyone. I happen to believe it is pointless to "fight" the former, wh

This is not "being able to serve", this is "being forcefully drafted". Can you share a few links highlighting how vocal feminists have asked for the draft to be extended to women? Thanks.

by dudul 6mo ago
Always funny to see the most blatant lies be so forcefully put forward. Men were drafted while women were evacuated to the West. There are literal videos of that all over the place.

You got to admire the fantastic mental gymnastic some people are able to pull off to evade the arrows of accountability and integrity...
