Saying that evolution necessitates cooperation is actually similar to saying economics 'necessitates' cooperation. Single companies (organisms) end up cooperating internally to compete with the unforgiving environment of free mark

Not sure what's up with down votes here. The sad reality is that this is a common reason for estrangement in the US both for parent-child as well as spousal relationships.

I just finished reading The Wright Brothers by David McCullough. A fascinating aspect of the book is how no one expected two unknowns to solve a problem governments had been pouring money into [1] with no success. Every one of the high prof

How is the sports concern illegitimate? It seems it's already a major issue today, as we speak. We're past the point of hypothetical worst-case scenarios in that respect.

I think that's what I'm saying too unless I misunderstand. 2012 was 9 years ago, and Obama was anti gay marriage. So was Clinton for that matter until about 2015. https://www.eqca.org/hillary-clinton-has-a-new-posi

I can't imagine what this debate must feel like to someone who grew up in the 50's, 60's and 70's. Until 10 years ago gay marriage wasn't official policy of Obama or Clinton or I believe the majority of the Democrat

I also have lived in Pittsburgh for the last 10 years as this author but I have to say I have a different impression of the city. One of my employers had an orientation on Pittsburgh a few years ago and brought in some city planners who tal

I grew up in Lancaster (just south of Lebanon county) and still visit family there often. There are all sorts of country stores and meat shops in the small towns. Each small town also has its own local chocolate company with Hershey being t

My org has started to strongly recommend squashing before merging (in my opinion one step less extreme than the forced squash-merge mentioned in the article). I tend to consider this a decent principle in general but rules are made to be br

I have to concur with the author on Rust. I remember when I read the book a few years ago I had just spent several years doing professional development in C++ and Python, and had recently discovered the GIL much to my dismay. After reading

Be safe out there everyone. Squash with caution, don't force push master. And remember, reflog is always there to help if you get into trouble.

Disclaimer: I work for Microsoft. This idea that 'no military contracts can be justified for any reason' doesn't make sense to me. I think there's room for debate on each contract's potential value to civilians, but

It's hard for me to see how you're reading Ephesians 5 in good faith. Wives submit to your husbands, husbands sacrifice your lives for your wives (like how Jesus ya know, was crucified for his Church). And you read this as misogyn

I came to rust from c++ and I have to say I have never understood the 'darn complex' complaint. In c++ there are foot-guns on every turn. Follow the links for some goodies: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp&#x

Thank you for calling into question my underlying assumption (that media representation of BLM could be taken at face value). I found this summary of the BLM language online to be pretty fair: https://www.iwf.org/2020/1

Thanks for the reasoned alternative perspective. He misses the whole point of the video though, which is: Emphasizing race as the most important determinant of an individual is regressive, not progressive. It's possible for a reactiona

My assumption when I write comments on HN is that readers can make opinions for themselves. Perhaps that's a bad assumption? I don't have to agree with an article to post it on HN, why should I have to agree with everything a yout
