Hacker news is not relevant to politics. I don't know why I should put effort into validating other people's perception of what is factual. Notably, "observed fact" is an oxymoron. You mean observation of something you t

Similarly, I'd like one from outside both american/european AND chinese influence. I think you'd be absolutely insane to trust either of them. Honestly, if we're ever going to have a decent open hardware movement, I thin
