   Have you heard of the term "figure of speech" or the phrase "figuratively speaking"?

   I'm glad that you spoke your mind however unpopular even though I disagree with some of your findings/conclusions but it's really brave of you to stand up to the downvote goons on HN that all they care about is social enginee

   Again I have no prob with teetotalers whether for medical, social or religious reasons. The only prob I have is how to screen candidates to root out the fanatics and fundamentals from the moderate and regular conservative folks. Unfortunate

   Apparently I am not "culturally fit" for this "inclusive and tolerant" community or an HN material in general which should be a good news in and of itself if you ask me.

   Because I don't want to hire religious fanatics in where I work or bigot means that I don't share the same opinion as yours?

   With this stance, you and the OP are uncompromising on this issue which can be viewed as good or bad depending on context but I think in this case it's very unfavorable. Everyone has hobbies just take the time to think about it and you

   Drinking beer should not be the glue to any team. It is not about drinking alcohol either. It's about smoking out unfit candidates when it is inexpensive to do so and religious fanatics/fundies come at the very top of the list. Th

   If you don't like the taste of beer or alcoholic beverages for the matter is fine with me and I'd like to clarify that I don't have prob either with the religious cop-out but you'll have to forgive me if I get you under

   Gays wanted this way to be a top down authoritarian decision not a bottom up democratic one so there you have it. The govt should not be in the business of meddling with personal affairs in the first place except voluntarily and for minimum

    Sure! Like I said the whole US political system is a big joke but at least lawmakers can be held accountable theoretically for their voting decision to their electorate but to whom these appointed judges answer actually? I guess you know th

    If you are so intent on redefining/bastardizing marriage, while we're at it, please take a look at family bonds and friendships and see what we can come up with "novel" and "progressive" ideas to add to the con

    It's a slippery slope when you allow a bunch of unelected middle aged and old folks gather in a room and decide what is good and what is not for the rest of the population. The US political system is a big joke in my opinion.

    As I see it, most of the blue blobs are in Portugal and Galicia or the Northwest in general. Other population centers in Spain are growing despite the recession and stratospheric youth unemployment. Also worth mentioning, Spanish people are

    Anyone have any idea why in the countries most hit by the recession (Spain, Italy and Greece to name a few) there's striking divergence between population growth specifically decreasing Greece on one hand while increasing in Italy and

    Your admission of being a transhumanist and social darwininst should dissipate any fears I have after reading your comment. The good thing you are not one of those Gaia nutjobs still better than nothing.

    Reducing LOC is not always necessarily a good thing. I'd always favor a more readable codebase that takes some effort to explain its purpose than terse one that is vague and obscure that makes your head spin trying to figure out its ra

    Well there's a pecking order within musicians. Taylor Swift apparently is not treated like any other artist (America's sweetheart) out there and she must be appeased, and handled with extreme care and affection, and all her reques

    I compile JS files to CoffeeScript now only for the readability boost when I need to understand the code very quickly without all those parentheses or brackets getting in my way.
