I don't disagree about the number of absolutely toxic business owners and I've worked for a few of them. But there are some real bad employees too that don't understand how the world works. Maybe the toxic business owners sho

It's a simple business arrangement. Corporations give you money, you provide work. Yes it's possible and maybe even common to be taken advantage of in a business arrangement but that doesn't negate the concept of honer. You h

That is the antidote the toxic attitude. Go into business yourself for a bit and see the world from an entirely different angle. If you don't make it and come back to employment (most likely) you will be a much humbled and more enlight

It's a little dangerous because it generally just agrees with whatever you are saying or suggesting, and it's easy to conclude what it says has some thought behind it. Until the next day when you suggest the opposite and it agrees

So was Kimmel engaged in defamation? These excuses to go after political opponents leads to a very bad place. I will keep repeating this and hope it soaks in because it's a very important concept in a free society.

They bankrupted Alex Jones and Rudy Giuliani, paraded Steve Bannon in handcuffs. Kicked people with even moderate right wing opinions off social media. I fully disagree with cancelling Kimmel due to any governmental pressure (if that's

100% I love middle age (54). It's not that things get easier, they don't and I realize I can't do what I could at 28 but my attitude about life has changed. Less chasing sex, less impulsive actions, less neuroticism. More con

The politician industry seems to love 70+ year olds! (But I think you have to get in at a younger age).

I did switch over to Vue. Well not technically switch, I never learned React properly because I didn't like it when it first came out and by the time I gave it a second look there were already a gazillion React devs so I just stuck wit

An eye for an eye eventually leaves the entire world blind. Better we just act out of principals of liberty and charity in my opinion.

For sure. The doxing and firings and deplatforming over Covid views, Jan 6 and general Trump support etc were awful and people rightfully complained but this is equally as bad. The hypocrisy is astounding. It's like we have abandoned a

I had a roommate back in college that was a devoutly religious catholic. We went out drinking one Saturday night and he started talking about church (I was and still am irreligious). He convinced me to go with him to mass the next morning.

Would you require identification to copy and tape up a bunch of fliers around town? Anonymity is necessary sometimes in my opinion.

New Mexico government does things very very poorly compared to other states I've lived in. Corruption at various levels of government is very common. I actually really like this idea (even though I'm red leaning) but hope they are

New Mexico has some serious generational social issues. Extreme poverty, lack of education, lack of work (or most anything else) ethic are very common. Drugs and alcoholism are endemic. I wonder if some of the intent behind this is to reduc

I live in rural New Mexico and medical services are very bad here. I took my GF to the emergency room once with chest pains (turned out to be a lung infection). After an hours long wait we got to see the "doctor". The doctor came

The stimulants don't help ultimately. You are just taking out a loan that eventually will have to be paid back. With interest.

It was an "order of magnitude" more prevalent on HN about 10 years ago. But this is orthogonal to the original topic.

The system (in general) hasn't been rewarding hard work since the late 80's at least. Instead it has rewarded financial flim flams and rent seeking. That being said, "hard work" has become a bit of rarity in the West and

Any chance you could help keep this site political flamewar free? Not everyone agrees with you politically and it's unpleasant to have to wade through these kind of rants to read about interesting things. You have strong feelings, I ge

Same. I have a Pixel on Google Fi and get like one spam call every 2 weeks. And it always shows "possible spam" in big red letters. My girlfriend on the other hand gets several a day with a Samsung on A&TT. And it's worse

I know and don't believe I implied they were. There is also the final sentence about preferring to take "neither". Which of course indicates _two_ substances. But just to be safe, I don't think the liver and the kidneys

For code no, no shame as long as you understand it and agree. For internet comments or blog posts or emails ya, shame. In my opinion. But I'm a native English speaker and (I think) a decent writer. But if I had to write something in an
