To be fair, this seems like a generally true case of how subreddits work. Leftist subs brigade, Conservative subs brigade, star wars subs brigade, subs about watching other subs brigade still brigade. It's unsolvable so long as people

I don't think it would be an ideal if everyone were born exactly the same. Seems like a lot of beauty in the world around us comes from our different faces, thoughts, beliefs, culture, etc, all born of how we're all different.

The article itself is interesting but I couldn't stop snickering after the author cited a Twitter poll as their research.

I know this is probably not a podcast that is frequently brought up here, but Chapo Trap House recently discussing their issues with the book White Fragility and brought up many of the same issues here (it's marketing material for a an

I don't know this is wholely true. Democrats and Republicans have been breaking rules of order for the last 20 or so years it seems, alternating based on who's in control.

What's going to happen when he's gone? Does the next leader understand well enough? How about the next? It's the same reason we're seeing so much strife in the US. In the US, societal opinion and legislative action hardl

Do any HN coffee drinkers have any recommendations for precise/scientific resources on coffee? I know a lot about brewing coffee in different ways and a cursory amount about the 'what' of what's happening to the beans&#x

As a fellow Be the Match donor, I don't understand your philosophy. As you know, going through the donation process is, aside from scheduling appts & actual donation, not that much work on your end. I spent probably 20 hrs total to

I think you can make an argument that people should have the 'right' (is there such a thing as a right held by a nonliving person?) to make an informed choice about their organs but this is certainly an ambiguous situation as to w

Doing a little over a long time will more be more comfortable and achievable. For a couple months prior to interviewing, pick up CTCI or another similar text and try to spend 15 minutes a day (at least) reviewing your algos, data structures

Is that objectively extraneous? I feel like it was not something I'd known prior.

I don't agree. If you ramp up production and millions get vaccinated with the expectation that it will protect them then it doesn't there will be tremendous antipathy and distrust of medical science as a result.

I have mixed feelings about Mike but I have to say Bloomberg's (the company's) commitment to customer service is seriously impressive.

What great news! I loved this comics as a kid and I remember reading about his reasons for putting them on the internet. I think Larson is a major reason for my sense of humor today and I hope he gets a wider audience because he's got

One thing this thread has made me realize is that the work culture (at least of Googlers on HN) seems to kowtow to the company over the employees. Really affects my view of the company.

How can you expect anyone to be anything but defensive of their actions when you essentially fire them on the spot?

It was one "John Smith". I almost feel as though it must have been many programmers and they pinned it on the guy who left before it blew up. No one wants that black mark on their record and it would be insane to think most people

I agree that the founder has some pretty odious beliefs, chiefly racist, misogynistic, fascist, and the ilk. That said, Urbit is one of the most interesting projects I've seen.

I wish I could find the resource I read but common law paths and easements have existed for a long time and it's not absurd that long-standing tradition can reflect intent or legal obligation. Domestic marriage after a certain number o

It's not the billionaire's beach. He has no legal right to the beach front which is guaranteed as public by California law. I don't think your second point is reflective of this situation and I think your first is only somewh

One of my first software roles was working with a legacy FileMaker database where most of the business logic was built directly into different GUI elements. I do not envy your work.
