Yeah, I believe the stall-out issue is sabotage, but it also visibly takes longer to just render the page. On FF, a YT page jumps around for almost two whole seconds while it renders for me (not to play the video - to render the page). This

Why the insult with no explanation?

Laziness. Also I swear YouTube runs much worse on FF. But that's secondary.

"even Microsoft" is an oxymoron. Microsoft is exactly the entity I would expect to fail at implementing complex standards.

Only? No. Best? Yes, it's not even close. I got the Chrome extension that adds the "Open in Firefox" option to the hyperlink right-click menu. That's how I view all YouTube videos. I'd switch completely to Firefox

No need to be sarcastic and mock my username or my culture. I'm not asserting that you're an asshole or something because you don't agree that there is cultural disruption and/or replacement in London or parts of the US.

>Must I show my work when adding 2 plus 2 or can we agree that the answer is 4? This is arrogant in a damaging way. You should prefer to answer the asked question, since that would be an effective piece of information in this case (i.e.

No, I am sympathetic to his critics if that's what he is saying. I just don't see that in the article. But on the other hand, since this is an example of cultural replacement where the new folks happen to be disproportionately b

I disagree with the parent's wording and agree that the whole "people are free to say what they want" thing is generally not a compelling point in internet arguments, but there is a distinction you are omitting. People aren&#

It seems like a useful distinction (that, yes, is very easy to hide behind if your real opinion is just "I hate people based on skin color", but I have no way of knowing what's in Cleese's heart).

You specifically called out security vulnerabilities, but the point missed by the commenter you are replying to is that people who ridicule something originating from DHH or AI are generally not based on nothing . "People just hate X

This non-constructive attitude (the implication that race X is more racist than other races and therefore should be treated in a racist manner) is one of the purest forms of hypocrisy we face in Western culture. It is in my opinion, hateful

This is "gotcha" style internet trolling. It doesn't belong on HN. To be specific, for clarity: "Most" is a dishonest word in this context, and regardless the parent did not imply a legal distinction. As for definit

>Gupta described it as “DEI” to “prop up” Americans as a “preferred group.” This is easily one of the most eyebrow-raisingly dangerous things I've ever seen a leader of any kind (business or political) in the US say out loud. It sum

That's a great ideal, but is obviously impossible to the extent that you are implying, until we can eliminate national and legal borders entirely, which is a distant-future goal. You're putting the horse lightyears before the cart

Maybe in one thousand years we will all be one joint geo-political entity, which will be great, but until then it is an unassailable fact of physical reality that nations must prioritize their own citizens. That doesn't mean ignoring e

Absolutely, but this is just the opposite logical extension, corollary to "if we allow infinite development, there will only be a dystopia of super-high-density living everywhere". Both things are bad, and we must "prioritize

It sounds like you think "NIMBY" sometimes refers to one's own property, but it has always referred to things that affect one's home and community that are not occurring literally on your private property. There are alre

You're projecting the image of some kind of specific asshole onto me, personally, for no reason that I can discern. This genre of comment is hideous, and should not be on HN. My family and I participate extensively in our community, bo

>I feel like the main thing that NIMBY fear is change, any change. Broadly disparaging large, diverse groups of people like this is what makes things harder, not easier. This is tribalism.

You're confusing amount of money with amount of people. Financial investor mindset is a real and dramatic example, but a minority in the set of reasons that individual people care about the community they worked so hard to live in.

No need to be obnoxious. Just say that your opinion/experience is different. It seems natural to me that the majority of emotions regarding one's home and community are in regards to the idea of home and community, rather than the

Well, increasing housing supply does not always decrease home value, but I also think the home value concern is a secondary distraction. More saliently, I don't believe you're right to imply that "young professionals"
