   Yeah when you read the whole "setting a blog up part" you see he's adverting for a website and gets a kick back. Feel like a lazy ad to me...

   Some of the ads I was reading were would take extreme stances that make the other side get a distorted view of a group. I saw an LGBT ad from Russia that suggested we make it illegal for heterosexuals to adopt. This would do damage to said

   Plenty. You'll find it in more enterprise-sy and older software shops, not so much startups. edit: sorry I mean other than startups you'll find plenty.

    Doesn't your argument also apply to the other side though? That we can't just say "It didn't work in the past so it won't work now" without any context or actual evaluation?

    I've been seeing this more and more on HN in the past few weeks (maybe months?) of unpopular and dissenting comments getting down-voted like on Reddit.

    The only thing I've read that doesn't completely fire off my "bullshit warning mode" is something like "fasting can enable stem cells, and have immune system destroy old cells" like explained here: https:&#x2F

    It looks "cool", in a early 2000's kind of way, but after watching the video it didn't seem to solve any new problems other than maybe enhancing collaboration a little bit. I feel that new platforms/OSes need to hav

    I stopped using soap and shampoo for a year or two and it caused horribly clogged pores all the time and it wrecked my skin. I'm very oily :(

    So systemd at least compiles without manual settings, and convention over configuration trends. It would be ideal if they just setup their own NTP server for the default though. I think from a practical perspective though the whole thing wa

    The main developer has rewritten the whole thing in version 5 in NodeJS and HTML5, it's pretty slick now. I have it running in a docker container on GCE.

    I'm testing out tiddlywiki ( https://tiddlywiki.com/ ) as of right now. I really like it so far. Used to use org-mode, then plain old google docs. Right now for me it's between onenote and tiddlywiki.
