Telemundo was founded by Puerto Ricans/Boricuas in Miami FYI, and both expressly target the Hispanic public in America with content of various origins.

Majority of Black Americans are a distinct shared cultural group, like Hispanic folk, who come in many different pigments, also like Hispanic folk, who also tend to have an identifiable manner of speaking and protocol, also like Hispanic fo

Hi, Black SWE here. Grandparent isn't making a sensible argument by any means and is largely grasping for straws to code their outrage ("fine wine... but grape juice box" is particularly telling). Wish you all the best.

Strangely Telemundo/Univision's American arms don't have to deal with this type of criticism. The "for" is clearly indicating a target audience, not that you can't sign-up if you're not Black with photo id

Separate and excluded? Bruh, they're not requiring photo identification on sign-up as proof of Blackness, LMAO, lotta people in this thread are reaching for them grapes. I hope you sign-up, maybe you'll like some of the content. L

LMAO, you're really reaching for those grapes. The courts ruled that "cakes for straight people" meant cannot be sold to non-straight people , which is in fact discriminatory and also illegal. I don't think BlackOakTV i

FYI in 1900 it was illegal for Black folk to occupy the same commercial spaces as European Americans, and were relegated to designated areas in many public spaces, and that wasn't because Black folk wanted to, or imposed that law. Your

Really? Hipsters vs Squares is an equivocal history to that of LGBTQ+/Straight socio-political dynamics, or dare I say, the history of racial dynamics? Did you consult any queer folk on that one? Did you ask any Black folk about that?

Saddening that the top comment is a banner rally for questions that are posed naively whose direct answer can easily be gotten at by asking an actual Black person in real life instead of a niche space like this one. But that's not the

I listen to a lot of drone, dark ambient like Stars of the Lid, Tim Hecker but lately I've found those "Sound of rainfall, black screen" videos on Youtube to provide a background that blocks out sound outside at a decent enou

Those few big cities have lax homelessness enforcement. Chicago used to have a massive homeless problem up into the 90s (homeless died in the winter all the time), particularly underneath the freeways and Wacker Drive downtown, then they pr

You can't say this kinda stuff on HN since too many people associate their job with creating said progress. Michel Foucault spent his whole life making this exact argument - things simply change.

I mean those sermons and talks are literally where the code of chivalry evolved from, are we saying the Romans in the East and the Caliphates didn't have access to more resources and knowledge?

Yeah, Western and Northern Europe were, as Taleb so aptly put it, backwaters for most of human history. The Dark Ages merely described their loss connection to urbane, cosmopolitan civilization, which never ceased in the east, and had been

XState seems more useful as a tool to help a non-technical layman, like a Product Manager, think through developing a prototype of a feature or something on their own. Engineers who have some notion of what the meaning of their code is know
