What a bunch of hyperbole. Rome flourished following Caesar for quite a while. Only if you are sure that China is now beyond the event horizon and unable to change it's constitution going forward should you make such a statement.

What happened to the 'let's keep politics out of HN'? Maybe it's just me, but I recently seem to see lots of articles on HN with almost no content on this issue, trying to incite flamewars. Feels like astroturfing to me,

How is this a good example ? What's the quickly obsolete thing Google pushed to effectively kill Aardvark ? I'm with you that I'd like some better question answering service, but I don't think it's fair to blame Goo

Isn't the rationale of the current administration rather the opposite ? E.g., the proposed merit based system explicitly wants to only get the 'top-N' in, whereas your alternative would just deprive upstanding americans from

Aren't there rumblings that the current administration wants to actually remove the opportunity to indefinitely linger on H1B/advance parole status while the green card application is pending ? Sounds credible as far as current ad

That's generally my experience in Germany and Switzerland as well. Unless there are multiple hops involved e.g. Zurich-Würzburg with long waits in places like Stuttgart. If you have a non-stop connection it's great to work on a mo

AVs can react faster than humans - if all the vehicles in the tunnel are controlled automatically, distances could conceivably shortened quite safely. Not sure why "citation needed" was downvoted, it's far from clear no matte

Doesn't look that way in the bay area on the caltrain line from San Jose to SF. Tere, due to limitation and NIBYism along the tracks, but part of the argument of the boring folks is that a tunnel would not face the same political headw

This comment would make only sense if the train density on the track we're the same as the car density in a tunnel. Conceivably, the utilization of the tunnel could be way higher than the utilization of train tracks (most of the time:

Zeroing out a 4tb drive takes some time. Sometimes you might be in a hurry ;)

For quickly destroying hard drives, drive big nails through the entire case in several places. Restoration is at least very manual and annoying, in many cases not worth the effort. If you need more security, building a simple furnace isn&#x

I wonder how hyperbole compares to org mode. There seems to be some overlap and org mode seems more general on first glance.

Carrefour has also stores in Asia (e.g. a honking big branch in Shenyang, near the financial center). Edit: Google maps finds eleven Carrefour stores in Shenyang alone.
