I'm all for encouraging people to be honest with themselves, even if that honesty leads them to ugly places. But we are talking strictly about the ability to have fulfilling monogamous relationships, not the validity of "prince Ch

You're not required to "give up sex with others" if you don't want to. Hell, many people are okay with polyamory or casual sex in general. I was merely stating that committing sexually can in fact be a good thing, and th

Is there anything wrong with waiting to have sex with someone you're invested in? I've found those types of experiences to be worth it, long-term. It's interesting that some see that as naive--it's the opposite if anythi

Is this a 5% to 50% performance hit on all workloads or specific workloads?

American citizens are expensive, comparatively.

You've got it. And not only is university more expensive overall for these reasons, but a significantly smaller proportion of tuition/housing is coming from state funding. When education is treated like a business instead of a pub

Darn it, you stopped ranting.

This did not happen by chance. The answer isn't hard to arrive at--simply ask why college is so expensive compared to the 1990s, and why states cannot afford to offset these costs anymore. America is selling out its future by convincin

Pompous perhaps but sensible. Please don't stop ranting.

These are the arguments Ted Kaczynski laid out, if I'm not mistaken.

> It's sad that there seems to be little internal critique coming from within universities of the complete takeover of schools by administrators. According to the White House, everything in the executive branch is going wonderfully.

In fact, do they not study reactions in order to maximize the amount of time spent on their platforms?

If you have determined that the task is a net negative, is avoiding that task still a fear? At that point, wouldn't avoiding the task be the most rational/optimal decision? There have been many times where I have followed somethin

This is a topic that HN is particularly tone deaf on. Bringing this up tends to be seen as an attack on white or Asian people.

Culture doesn't mean being fashionable or trendy. I think you have a mistaken view of what culture means.

Then you've lived a sheltered life as a minority if you think middle America is as good of a long-term option as cities.

by ikeyany 9y ago
The luxury of living blissfully anywhere you want is most certainly not realistic to everyone, especially non-whites. HN as a whole seems to believe perspectives like yours are ubiquitous by default.

Don't you think it's worth taking a step back when you insist that culture doesn't matter?

Again, not everyone believes 15 years chain restaurants, homogeneous lifestyle, and isolated affluence is worth it.

by ikeyany 9y ago
Spending 15 years in a cultural wasteland (even with your own pool) isn't appealing to everyone. Sounds like the issue is that our cities aren't liveable in the first place.

You probably won't love it if you're black, if that makes a difference.

Why does everyone deserve happiness? That's nonsense. There are some really horrible people out there who refuse to change.

Your 'purpose' is to make the company money by designing things. Isn't that literally what you signed when you started working for them? Any 'higher' purpose comes from within.

Meaning it's bold of them to admit they're so out of ideas, they're willing to end the only thing that made them unique.
