You’re pretty close to the 2A03 used in the NES, wonder if you could get that to work? I doubt the pin out is the same as the 6502 though.

A Microsoft employee speaking at a Microsoft event is going to be considered an official Microsoft representative. Seems like false advertising that Microsoft didn’t correct the record before it was convenient for them to do so and after a

I’ve been fully off Windows for about a year now but if I was using Windows I’d be a bit upset if I had bought the non-free version that Windows advertised as the last Windows OS you will ever need and now they are going back on that. That’

I’d be absolutely willing to bet your average American would not classify giving up their right to privacy as part of the American dream.

Which products are they selling and making medical claims about? It looks more like they are selling interesting science experiments rather than medicine.

If you don’t like Facebook just don’t use Facebook, WhatsApp, or Instagram. Don’t know why so many people here think parents and adults are not capable of regulating themselves and their kids. It’s honestly condescending to think you know b

People don’t have much control over their local police force but I don’t understand how making a national police force which citizens have even less control over helps. It’s also not clear to me that instances of corruption and nepotism don

Well crap, I guess I’m going to have to burn my diploma that clearly says I’m an electrical engineer.

Why are journalists, payment processors, and video content hosting services the establishment voices? Those are the platforms that are critiquing and banning him — not actual health experts. Just because a company bans someone from their pl

I think it’s a touch ironic that for all the time the French government spent mocking the US because of Trump that they are now pulling a Trumpian temper tantrum for losing out on a business deal.

This is an opinion article from Bloomberg — all Amazon is doing is opening fulfillment centers in places where it’s economically viable as far as I can tell? What am I missing?

I distinctly remember hearing how southern Florida would be underwater by now in class in the 90s. People have been making arguments for decades about climate change and while I generally believe the trends, I don’t think it’s as clear cu

Today, absolutely. The poor parts of the world have pretty much all made gains over the ~50 years. Take a look here: https://ourworldindata.org or (and I feel like a shill; this is my third or fourth time mentioning it) pick up

The article is written by a German who probably learned British English, so in effect this is some guy telling people they should write in the way OP learned to write? How did this make it to the front page of HN?

What hell do you see? The world is unequivocally getting better in terms of health, food supplies, education, economics, etc. I’d recommend reading Factfulness if you want data based evidence for what I’m saying.

As hominem attacks are not a good way to discredit an argument though.

If a carbon tax won’t pass in liberal Washington I don’t think there’s much hope for the rest of the US, TBH.

The temperatures are already increasing but the world is progressively getting less starved and malnourished over time, not more. Source: our world in data / Factfulness.

I’m pretty left leaning but I don’t think it’s right to leak all of their customers simply because some subset of the domains were used for unsavory purposes. That’s not a fascist ideology, I think people should have their privacy respected

I think you are either misunderstanding the US federalist system or are ignorant of how and why the system works the way it does.

> Yet public safety is rather low. Public school is bad. Those sound like complaints for the local government. The federal government doesn’t generally have control over local schools or state/local law enforcement. I also think you

How are they playing the nanny? Its in Salesforce’s best interest to relocate employees who might otherwise quit to move to different states.

I’d imagine the set of people who are not in a position to raise a child has significant overlap with the set of people who cannot afford (in time, money or both) to fly to another state for an abortion.

Given the number of articles from Facebook saying how they won’t censor speech (doing a basic Google search here) that all seems like false advertising. Note: I don’t use Facebook so perhaps I’m missing something.

What do you mean? If purchases are directed to a developers own payment system I don’t have a choice, I cannot force that developer to use Apples payment system can I?

As a consumer I trust how Apple payments work and like the fact that everyone was using it on iOS. Now I will need to cut back on apps and do more due diligence to avoid scams and other issues. Hard to see how this is a win for consumers in

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I think it’s a great idea to base fees based on your performance in classes after you’ve actually finished it. In the US there are plenty of scholarships but you need to have demonstrated prior achie

The article didn’t really mention exemptions, are you assuming no exemptions for medical / religious reasons or are you saying this from a clearer source?

Many college students already do this. I know I did. It’s only the rich with the luxury to not work.
