Which ones do you recommend following? In my experience the quality of reddit is so much worse than HN.

Hm. No I mean more with the grassroots hacker nature that Hacker News has. A collection of links/news that are generally interesting, educating, newsworthy etc. Plus the discussion around it. Yes the subreddits maybe but they seem to

US is just entirely broken. Why don't you fix the underlying issues (guns) and not trying to ducktape the symptoms.

Caveat: if you read the full text/supplementary materials, it becomes clear it's actually about ethnolinguistic groups, not languages. I doubt that all the languages were unintelligible to each other given that intelligibility is
