What makes a person so negative? Have you really never asked yourself where you come from? You don’t think that’s an interesting conversation piece?

My favourite programming language is supreme because of some objective reason and totally not because it’s my favourite. Yeah we’ve all heard that one before

I’ve been programming in Java for about 10 years now. I would consider myself an expert - I’m not just some guy who built crud apps, I’ve gotten messy with Java. I came up programming for minecraft servers - lots of interesting challenges t

We must have a “new features since Java 8” post every other day.

Only God creates souls. I think the idea of two bodies sharing a soul is plausible. But I’m not a canon scholar.

And why can’t the logical conclusion be that either one of them could be the original Riker? Why does the original have to be gone?

I find my answer to this question in my belief in God. What happens to the soul during transportation? If this technology were to exist, I would defer the question to The Church. I know that region isn’t the answer that will satisfy most of

The idea isn’t repealing 230 - it’s to recognise any platform that’s manually curating content as a publisher. Then if that publisher hosts illegal content, they’re liable, because if they can curate some of the content, they should be resp

It’s the default system that will always arise. Even in the USSR, there was a black market.

Do you actually think VC money is predatory? I have a $1m MMR startup that I founded without any external funding - but mostly because I was naive to such structures existing at all. I would have saved years of struggling if I had an initia

This is HN, not Reddit. We don’t say stuff like that here because half of us are using private jets.

Yep. I have a personal US address and obviously a business address. They had no problems opening the account.

I had a horrible experience with Mercury bank. I’m a US citizen, but living in a foreign country (which is a US ally…). Mercury had no problem opening my account - but then a few months later froze my account for a week with no heads up. Al

Same. Do automatically opt-in newsletters really turn a profit? I would think that for something like a newsletter, explicitly opting in would end up being more profitable, since if you’re sending an email with eg sendgrid it’s not free. Ca

I completely agree with you. In my country, we use telegram to communicate, rather than WhatsApp or SMS. Older people might use Viber, but Viber is a total nightmare. Just having it installed, I get dozens of spam messages per week from sho

Almost everyone naturally falls into meaningful relationships without “making them happen.” For example, did your dad have to approach 200 women on the street to meet your mom, or did they naturally meet through a social event or a friend g

It seems like you’re referring to pickup artistry, because who else would get drinks thrown at them? Yeah, that’s really great, I did that stuff all the time. When I was like 16. But as an adult, you have to respect yourself enough to not
