I'd be happy with the generous severance package and move on with my life. But do you honestly care about a generic exit interview? Do you think any employer cares that much? Seems like a total waste of time for everyone involved given

FB has an unlimited budget, a financial incentive, and reddit basically handed them the data. This is not even close to overkill.

I'm not making any leaps, I provided a link that explained it. I have no trust in Israel to begin with due to their uncomfortable control over US politics, this was just further evidence to support that decision.

HN is about one step away from becoming reddit with this type of baseless speculation. There is no indication this administration wants to suppress votes, the president has explicitly said he wants to institute voter ID's to protect th

I wouldn't trust anything coming from Israel ever. Their government appears to have a mandate for installing backdoors, evidenced by the scrapped Iron Dome project which they wouldn't hand the source code over for. https:/&#

It's not obvious? Facebook has enough of your conversations to fingerprint your writing style. Now they can de-anonimize your reddit account and serve you even more personalized ads.

Comcast/Xfinity broadcasts their own Wi-Fi from the routers they rent to you. That is the backbone of their mobile phone service, with Sprint towers as the fallback for out of service areas. You are essentially paying (electricity/

We didn't even have FDA approved test kits until last month, I imagine that similar agencies exist in Japan which required government intervention to expedite the process. I know you want to believe they had nefarious intentions but bu

Unfortunately I agree here. We're not out to save as many small businesses as possible, but jobs. If we want so save small businesses, we need to earmark more money for small businesses only ; especially should this extend beyond Apri

Japan was certainly trying to save the Olympics but when it became clear nobody would attend, numbers "skyrocketed" the same way US numbers did, ie. we started actually testing people and confirming what everyone else already knew

I think you are diminishing the amount of traffic between Europe and US on any given day. Closing the borders to Europe may very well have saved us from catastrophe. Numbers exploded everywhere in March.

In that case I wouldn't trust any country not to fudge the numbers. As far as Japan goes, I believe the numbers are close enough. They have a very high population of elderly and smokers. People would be dropping like flies and making a

IIRC rice isn't very nutritious, it's just calorie dense. In that regard adding hemp seeds to your diet may do more in the long run.

I believe I did answer your question. Washing your hands will always be better than not. Many modern buildings also have automated water/soap/towel dispensers. And you can always use the towel to open the door.

The US did quarantine and test arrivals from Diamond Princess. Those who showed no symptoms have been sent home afaik and are under self-quarantine for a couple weeks. It is ironic that South Koreans would be worried about Americans and Jap

Not sure if you've been to Japan but they have some of the cleanest public facilities I've seen in spite of all the traffic. I'm sure people are coming through multiple times a day to wipe down all fomites.

Don't make light of cannabis, it is a drug and like all drugs has side effects. Even moderate use can seriously retard and arrest brain development in teenagers and it can accelerate the onset of schizophrenia in those who are at risk.

With regards to the paper you posted, I don't think it does enough to escape the fallacy of correlation/causation. It stands to reason that a news event implicating refugees for a crime will attract anti-refugee sentiment, likewis

Anecdotally I would disagree, I know plenty of men and women who just can't find the right words when it comes to the opposite sex but have no trouble navigating social situations otherwise. I'm skeptical that you've never co
