It's not a matter of "affording" food/products or not. It's a political decision, to not prosecute people for crimes against property. And it's an extremely dangerous decision. The rule of law, and the freedom

Exactly. You can see loads of videos online of 5, 10 people, entering a regular Whole Foods or 7-Eleven and simply looting the place and leaving without pay. This kind of thing doesn't even happen in 3rd world countries like where I li

As a non US citizen that does not live in America and just looks from the outside, I'm always amazed at the rapid transformation going on in the last decade. If hackernews is a sample of the general american population, you guys are be

He does have some videos about locks that neither he nor Bosnian Bill have been able to pick. It's usually a combination of circular core plus a very eccentric key that needs to be inserted a cerftain way to be able to access the pins.

Exactly. By definition, if you reward competence and hard work, and punish incompetence and lazyness, you will obviously generate different outcomes for the individuals involved, and that is FAIR and efficient. The opponents of a meritocrat

Good luck if yoy think that anyone can become a virtuoso on the guitar. I believe you do not really understand what this expression means. And on the singing thing, it's just like playing an instrument, you are born with a baseline har

As an amateur singer, I feel deeply disappointed by the fact that Chris Cornell isn't on this list. The range this guy had was unbelievable, even in his later years. I personally find it easier to sing Guns and Roses songs than to sing

History is a series of bad remakes that should never have been made. The US seem to be going on a very good direction, toppling Washington and Jefferson's statues lately.

It's just the same that is happening today. If you want to create a socialist, send your son to Paris/London/Seattle. Send him to Cuba or Venezuela and you'll create the founder of the Next UBER.

Exactly. If they were honest about it, it probably would b less impactfull to their bottom line. But now that they decided to take a side on the cultural war, conservatives would be happy to boycott them. I think it's worth it if they

Uber should not exist. If it's still alive after the pandemic, it will only be because of governments all around the world forcing the hand of people, with interest rates near zero or even negative, to pour money on unsustainable busin

You have no idea what you're talking about. I presume you live in the US. You definitely have no sense at how much an average brazilian/argentinian/russian/indian guy can improve their financial life by driving for a rid

No, they are the ones driving it. And now they will be out of their job.

Tell that "Uber is not an essential service" to the millions of otherwise unemployable people that were able to feed their families using it. In countries like Brazil, where I'm from, the fall of Uber will have a gigantic imp

It's just sharing the connection it gets from my wifi router over USB to my laptop. Since my laptop's wifi antenna does not work, I have to give it access to the internet through USB tethering. My laptop is always plugged to my TV

I just go to Android settings and enable tethering over usb. Unfortunately, this creates another step every time I turn on the laptop, but I'm actually used to do it already. This "smartphone antenna" is being used for two ye

I use an old Android smartphone as a replacement wifi antenna for the notebook I use plugged to my 65 inch TV. It's my main workstation, and is a very good machine, but for some reason there's a short circuit on the motherboard an

Bazilian dude here. The problem is the hacker was asking him "who should we get the telegram messages from next". If a journalist know before hand about crimes that WILL BE committed and instructs the guy to continue, this is way

Interest is already negative in Japan for years, and now it's negative on Europe too. The US is heading fast to this insane reality of negative interests too. Since 2008 the FED has multiplied the amount os dollars in circulation by wh

It's probably because of "personalized results". If Google knows that you listen to Nirvana it will assume you want to hear the song, instead of showing you the MOST RELEVANT RESULT, that is the freaking Wikipedia article abo

For something like two years I've been using bing more and more. Google is filtering/censuring the results so much about anything remotely controversial, i.e. torrents, streams, politics on a certain political spectrum, news etc..

Is everyone in silicon valley a flaaaaaming, communist level liberal? At least Hacker news is frightening so, and I believe a lot of commenters here live in California and work on the industry. I mean, I live in Brazil and it shocks me to s

The article states that 3 out of four ER doctors are male. So, out of 50% of 75% of the sample, they found a very slim, close to noise, discrepancy. They are not focusing on a very strict group, they are simply taking 60% of the group and c
