Really? So like a system of if-can-pay-do-pay wouldn't be an example of reasonable cost offsetting, exactly like we do with being able to afford counsel? Surely you're not saying that we can't levy fines instead of prison ti

One might argue that your debt to society is ALL of the legal consequences of your crime including not just imprisonment time but also fees, fines, etc. In these discussions it often seems like people have the feeling that the prison time

I have accepted your terms and I am using your software in a manner that is compliant with your terms. Yet you are trying to burden me with some extra ethereal terms that you're coming up with after the fact and justifying through wei

I don't understand why people get upset about this. It's called open source for a reason. If you want recognition when someone uses your open source project, pick a license that has an advertising clause. This is similar to othe

And of course I mean this is totally untrue. I have no anonymous Twitter account and I follow the group think at every turn. I apologize for joking that I don’t follow the group think at any time. I will of course honor the group think at

I am a huge supporter of organizing and in general POWER TO THE PEOPLE. I believe that with my heart and soul. But the idea that you should be able to force the company to let you use company resources and systems that they pay for, for t

So entitlement to things paid for by others, that you have a “right” to for your own purposes. Got it.

Can you explain when the introduction of beer suddenly caused the crash in male fertility? As opposed to it being related to the huge push towards xenoestrogens? It’s cute to find a masculine form of victim blaming but there is literally

#disalloweffectiveadvertising to find the truth of social fairness!!!

by jgowdy 6y ago
Oh noes, what if advertisers chose to spend money on the most demographically effective groups and not in a way that reflected our social justice agenda?! That would be almost like self determination on their part rather than bowing to wha

Please give more information as to why factory foods created with vegetables aren’t similar between margins, trans fats, and other vegetable based foods and literally killed millions of people... but this time the vegetable based replacemen

by jgowdy 6y ago
The number of people willing to insist that phytoestrogens and other xenoestrogens aren’t related to why male fertility rates are quite really crashing is truly sad. You aren’t interested in an open discussion of the issues. You just want

And how are males not getting massively fat due to processed foods and the significant pressure of soybean oil and products based on soybean oil and other processed foods rich in xenoestrogens from factory foods? Yet you’re pointing to “be

Except maybe by word of mouth spread the existence of external forums for communication that don’t involve leveraging company paid resources and some kind of entitlement to use said resources for non-company purposes. Using external resour

How is this not exactly like margarine or trans fats from vegetable oils? Let's take something natural and replace it with something made in a factory through all kinds of industrial food processes, but since it's made out of veg

I should have been clear, I was referring to OP’s statements which were easily refuted by the Whois search. I thought that was relevant to tying this situation to some HN perceived history of this behavior.

Right, but they’re angry because Rogan occasionally brings right wing people on his show and lets them speak. Can you imagine? Allowing opposing perspectives to speak...

by jgowdy 6y ago
Yeah, I’m not right wing either, I just actually believe in free speech for everyone. Even people I don’t agree with. This new movement to censor and silence opposing perspectives is disgusting and should frighten people. Win with the me

It seems like you’re painting with a broad brush. Does the company literally allow those resources to be used for personal use without restriction? Or are there in fact terms of use associated with those resources? Can you use them to ad

I think you’re wrong and exposing some weird form of entitlement to resources that don’t belong to you. Of course you can talk to people and organize. None of that grants you the right to use their systems, equipment, or resources to purs

How is this not more left wing technologists trying to use their technology roles to de-platform right wing perspectives they don’t agree with? Literally threatening to quit if they can’t impose editorial content policing on the other side

I'm confused as to why anyone would presume to be able to use company equipment, resources, email, etc for these types of activities. Obviously you have a right to organize, but I don't see how they have to let you use their syst
