Of course he does this. Does anyone honestly think he's for absolute free speech? It's human nature to do this kind of thing unfortunately for most humans they are just not in the position of power to do these things. So while we

Is their house made with paper walls? Seriously this seems less like a pickle ball problem and more of a cheap house problem.

You don't mention which university you went to to get your degree. Additionally doing a remote learning for a University degree does not look as well as physically attending. I understand back in 2020 there wasn't much choice to b

Why would a buyer trust your site? How do fairly resolve disputes? Do you have some certification as an escrow service? As a buyer if someone asked be for a deposit on a FB market item I'd report them as a scam.

I would respectfully disagree with your assessment that finding a way to safely accelerate a big rock so it misses us is cheap and easy even in a relative sense. I don't believe it is easy in any sense of the word and it is fraught wit

What I don't understand is why they want to call it the same thing and try and position it as a remake by abandoning the things that made it the thing. Of course people get angry when you stomp on their memories. How difficult would i

This seems to be a complaint about something but offers no alternatives that would help gain desired outcomes. By being a professor and writing this article the author seems to embody the principle of those who can, do, and those who can&#x

Yes. Depending on your agreements contracts with your clients you may not strictly have to but in general it's considered a best practice to do it. Some clients may not want to be listed, not because they are unhappy with your product,

I agree with most points in this article but there is clearly some FUD being passed off as fact as well. Specifically that Red hats EULA around free use of GPL code is valid. The author's previous post that indicated far less certain

It's interesting the article doesn't indicate how they reach the conclusion that it was due to "entitlement". The only thing that seems to actually be indicated is that conservatives would complain more in different con

Except this is a blatant misrepresentation. The CDC data shows that the covid associated death rate has dropped "normal", but all cause mortality rates are still above normal worldwide. This kind of smacks of the skewing of the nu

Which is funny because if they wanted to make $40,000 a year all they would need to work at is an Amazon fulfillment center or an Amazon warehouse and they will make that wage. So are they choosing to work in a low pay low skill job?

To a lot of people money is the end all be all and to me that doesn't make sense. Obviously more money is usually better than less money but money isn't everything. Often times people will conflate money with additional happiness

I've had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. I can distinctly remember taking the hearing tests in school and it was sometimes difficult to distinguish the tone from the tinnitus ringing. Of course at the time I never knew what it

Now you see a resort to personal attacks. If you can't engage in debate on the topic this is exactly what you do. Your own narcissism is evidence in the fact that apparently having an opinion is evidently offensive to you? Instead I m

Not only is the relevance to hacker news dubious at best. The article itself makes a statements with no supporting evidence not even bad evidence. The author is demonstrating the exact narcissistic and toxic traits of putting out sensationa

Except the evidence doesn't support this in any way. The data show that we are living in the lowest level of crime in the United States that we've seen in decades but the data also shows that we are living in the most narcissistic

That's a key a lot of the coverage of this issue misses out on highlighting. A contract fundamentally is a meeting of the minds and an acknowledgment of that. If former business had always been conducted between the two parties with pa

No it's actually much more nuanced than that. Because if this was the first dealing of this kind between these two individuals it's likely the court would have ruled the other way. Contract law is very nuanced taking in the mindse

The title is a bit misleading but at least this article goes in to detail about how the judge came to his decision. A lot of people misunderstand what constitutes a contract and the simple summary is it's a meeting of the minds and an

So the pads in this could last a bit longer, so you do it now or in 3-6 months, but the main complaint here seems to be the shop wanting to replacing the rotors. When replacing pads you should either turn the rotors and crack check them (m

But you see how they conveniently leave out which positions they worked for in those fields. So yes there has to be some sort of corporate conspiracy to say that the same position for a woman pays less than the same position for a man with

So reading this article I thought I would get some new data that's an ah-ha moment of yes there is an evil corporate conspiracy to pay women less for the same jobs. Instead what I learned was the same things that previously learned, t
