Yes, I thought it would be another library. I like seeing the use of gofeed.

If the fees are applied only against non-California cars then it is likely those fees will be held to violate the interstate commerce clause due to being de facto discriminatory. Not that I agree with the outcome in this case. The interstat

If you disagree in this case you should be blaming the interstate commerce clause. I strongly suspect the union is going to eventually rattle apart due to being held together too tightly by its abuse.

Perhaps the only rationale (not that I necessarily agree with the outcome) is that California imposing such restrictions violates the interstate commerce clause. The test involved does not consider intent, only whether or not out-of-state b

True, I suppose. My comment was supposed to be commentary on the article in the vein of the original opposition to a fiat currency. On one hand I recognize that the conspiracy to manipulate the money supply is supposed to be in the best i

Can you be sure it is not connected to the Internet? I thought previously someone gave example of a Chinese TV connecting to open hotspots, or perhaps that was just a thought experiment.

I've lived my whole life under a recession, where is my bailout money?

The test is one that doesn't care about intent. If it can be found that, say, bespoke car makers (do they even exist?) based outside of California have a much harder time selling to California residents because of this law then it coul

There is an example I am aware of that was in my history book (but that I am having trouble finding now). States would set conflicting sizes for tractor trailer mudflaps in what seemed to be a de facto attempt to regulate trade between stat

If California regulation de facto prohibits out-of-state cars from being sold or operating inside of it the rules may run afoul of the interstate commerce clause. At least in the history book I used there is a direct parallel: a precedent s

It seems like he refused because of her association to Epstein (or perhaps just not being interested), and knew she was probably underaged and coerced despite her own coerced statements. People are giving Mr. Minsky flak for not refusing th

There is a comment of his talking about "voluntary pedophilia." This is likely (very likely) a misuse of terms, though -- having had this discussion with others on the Internet, they do not usually intend pedophilia, which is an

I did, and that is true but not what I am talking about. The claim is about the victim's willingness, not who RMS defended. Further do court documents and other testimony related to the Epstein investigation not agree with RMS's c

There was actually an article on HN recently about just this: executives who retained their position or high status (regardless of employer) despite "scandal" did not admit fault. Those that did never recovered.

This article is predicated on lies. Was the original not libel? Mid-page there is a link to a Daily Beast article stating RMS claimed the victims were willing, which is something he did not do.
