That's because this site is a bunch of nutters. Have a browse through the site. Perhaps they actually have a point, but it's difficult to take seriously when it's a crazy person trying to make it. Anyone have a reputable link

It is a "less developed state". Software that worked, no longer works. That's what a software regression is . The fact that you don't even understand the definition you quoted makes me...etc etc

Probably because they have the discipline to close questions that aren't appropriate, even when people like the answers. Good for them.

Once again, vague accusations with no concrete examples. I'm not convinced. Sounds like you just have a bias against Catalonia.

That seems reasonable enough. If you're going to live in Catelonia, then it seems right that you should learn Catalan. How exactly is learning a language "indoctrination"? Are children indoctrinated when they're taught t

Since DeepDrive says, "we are restricted from providing resources using GTAV for legal reasons" I would guess that's the reason. And since legal advice is always "don't say anything", it doesn't seem ent

That's because the selection bias you are asking them to account for is based on the psychic abilities of hiring managers. Even if it exists, it doesn't matter because there are still people hiring overqualified people and it only

Ah, my apologies then. It's their fault for not updating the FAQ and you can hardly be blamed for quoting from it! There was an update to that 6 months later: https://www.cockroachlabs.com/blog/better-sql-joins-in-

I don't know what that means. Everyone knows that there is a massive Greek influence on Western culture. The only reason there might not be many HN articles on it is that it's so obvious.

That blog post is from a year ago. And since Cockroach DB 1.0 was only released in May this year, it's a bit misleading to link to that post as though it was the current state of the sofware.

No, they're given some of their society's money, since they're a member of that society. That money doesn't belong to any individual, it belongs to society as a whole.

Where did you get that from? There wasn't any market crash when he stopped working, therefore his passive income would have been far in excess of his spending. Where did you hear he had to work?
