When you provide someone who has built up a false image of what a liberal is in their head, if you provide them that image they'll more easily accept it as real.

The failure of the launch changes the real world situation. It's not irrational to argue that such a change also changes the pros/cons of a merger. The fact that it was related to a 3rd party is irrelevant.

Only presenting facts doesn't make something fair. Deciding which facts to present can affect a statement's fairness.

This is incorrect. As I already stated: the cross-breeding is to take advantage of hybrid vigor[1], it is not an effort to intentionally hamper successive generations. This same practice occurs in non-GMO, non-patented plant breeding, and h

This is an incredibly irrational comment and it's sad that it is the top comment for any article on HN.

He's writing this to citizens of Oregon, which doesn't have a sales tax. Other states would still have the "pay sales tax on internet purchases" thing that they theoretically already have that no one pays attention to.

Saying it is false and calling views "distorted" does nothing to further the conversation. If you're interested in furthering conversation on the subject try providing reasoning behind your statements instead of condescension

It looks like this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/oR15I.jpg I'm sure the TSA would be able to figure it out, but the goal would be to leave the person whose luggage it is without any reason to believe something is amiss or

Simple solution: Travel around until you get your luggage inspected, copy the notification paper they place in your luggage, place copy in any luggage you surreptitiously open, boom: TSA did it, not you.

That's why I was asking about if there was any information about this, or any studies/investigations done, since people can go back and forth forever with "Well, did they already check that part? Is it intentional? Was the do
