I don't think that's what they were saying. I think they were saying worst case you dealt with local bigots. These days the whole of America's bigots are coming for you because of the internet.

So you go to the building owner and say, "give them what they want or we walk." Security team probably doesn't want outrageous changes. Building owner probably just being greedy.

Citation very much needed. Society today is full of people in power who exploit others. Cops, ceos, spouses, etc. Very rarely are they "made an example of", and when they are it doesn't seem to change the intuitions.

I'm 50. And agree, back in the 90s things were different. But we're sliding way way way back over the past five years.

Because tests aren't completely innocuous? Because tests lead people to make significant medical decisions? Look at the supplements world, where grifters are shilling chemicals that cause harm and make radical claims for absurd markups

We sure do punish people for being weird, and it's definitely seeing an increase. Ask any gay, trans, disabled, neurodiverse, furry, anarchist, or other outsider group whether life has gotten easier lately. Guarantee it's almost (

So you are suggesting less truth is good? That we should come here and post lies because that's more fair? Absurd.

What if it's genuine? I use kagi. The results quality is pretty good, but I probably use the uprank and downrank feature all the time. Being able to report stuff as AI and get little indicators that a site is AI slop is good. As an exa

Oh there are many, many parts. By land area, probably most. But not by population.

Done. Now what? NYC is still being run pretty well?

No idea why you got flagged here, you've pretty clearly said reasonable things.

Did the parent say clean energy or cheap energy? Obviously yes, coal. Though coal has dropped as a percentage of their portfolio fairly dramatically, and in absolute twh has been stable since 2010, with other energy sources growing.

Why would anyone, even one of his supporters, care about the stated goal? The man has decades of pursuing goals other than his stated goals. You'd have to be profoundly naive.

My friend, sometimes the truth is partisan. And in those cases it absolutely belongs on HN.

Or they'll raise prices by that ten percent and become the marginal supplier. No way they're going to accept a loss. (Many items shipped into the USA of late have tariff related fees.)

I cannot understand how people can tolerate the crease. It's so visible on every foldable. And it's simply not acceptable to my eyes.

Do you have a citation for that?

Depends on where you work. And what "see a doctor" means.

This, with a decent regulatory agency, wouldn't be that difficult to manage. We really could just say "infinite scrolling" and then add more things to the list as needed. We do it with firearms, medicines, drugs, vehicle part

Where do you fall on "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" ? Israel saying things, the thing happening, but no clear orders from the top.

The only assertion I made about the right is that the proportion of antisemitism is higher. There are absolutely people on the right who are altruistic. Just like there are people on the left who are antisemitic.

One, China is also committing genocide. Two, the intent is clearly genocide. Listen to Ben-Gvir.

Don't we typically call that ad hominem? And secondly, is your claim that every single one of these hundreds of large orgs are historically politically or religiously anti Israel? I get that of course Iran is not a valid opinion, but

It sure does presuppose that. Because that's not really a factual debate at this point. See my comment higher. I agree not all wars are genocides. This one is. And people can get hypothermia any time their body temp is below 35C. Which

Not at all obviously. Israel is committing a genocide. This is not really a matter of discussion... you think several parts of the UN, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, the international association of genocide scholars, the i

It's really really really simple, and I can see you are struggling. Local, disconnected, highly visible cameras that store pictures for a single person's use? Great. Centralized control over a mesh of networked cameras, queryable
