I wasn't talking to you, so it's awfully uncharitable of you to assume everyone else disagrees for such "noble" reasons such as yours. When people tell you who they are, believe them.

I’d grant that benefit of the doubt if the rest of the thread wasn’t so illuminating on how HN feels about “woke” and how apparently a modicum of sensitivity towards historically disadvantaged minorities is the end of civilization.

>"Screeching" in english (at least North American english) is typically a gendered derogative. When HN can't tolerate such an obviously true statement such as this, yet plenty of dog-whistles supporting homophobia and raci

Same experience here. Maybe TikTok appeals more to teenagers who have an underdeveloped sense of self. I remember at that age conflating popularity with accuracy and authority. Now when I watch TikTok it's just an exercise in frustrati

Why not pair the limited storage with something more long lasting? The long-lasting could be a heavy-duty ssd that holds 8tb or something. That is weeks worth of audio and data. If that's lost in a crash or incident, so be it, it was p

So these tech giants just happened to all do layoffs around the same time. What a coincidence. Almost like they are organized against their workers.

You have to include the fact that the pyramid, while being hogwash, was still better than the average American diet of fast food and candy. So it may have been a net positive overall despite being existing somewhere on the scale from heavil

The fact they didn’t take off with the mechanical issue should be a point in their favor, not against them. More accurately though, safety critical things are not allowed to go wrong. If they do, they get investigated. What is and isn’t dee

It seems to me, as a layperson, if MOND was hypothesized first, it would be the dominant theory. It’s so elegant and simple with so much explanatory power. However, because it was hypothesized much later, the fact it matches past prediction

And then you find an obscure service doesn’t come back up on the 10,000th or 100,000th reboot because of <any number of reasons>. And now you have multiple states, because you have to handle failover. It’s turtles all the way down.

Of course The Fed is a generator of inequality, but if taxes were set properly, it could be counterbalanced. We can see this in European countries with much lower rates of inequality because of high taxes on excessive wealth and income. The

Whatever they’re paying, it’s not enough, because inequality is increasing. In other words, they’re paying an outrageous amount of the taxes because they make an extraordinarily amount of the income (and wealth). I’m not talking about someo
