I like to use YouTube so I have a standard player across all browsers and platforms. I never know what the user is going to see when I use <video>.

Wow even some of Photoshop's more obscure shortcuts are the same. Embarrassing that it feels snappier than my actual copy of PS.

Any article calling out a network about fake news without mentioning Fox News sure as hell does not belong on HN.

Nearly every first world country funded their own vaccine development. And nobody said US is an awful country.

How is the US buying most of the initial vaccine stock leaving the rest of the world to cross their fingers they get some kind of handout, a good thing for anyone but the US?

Don't forgot they 'donated' much of this because the U.S. used its position to secure far more than they needed to hedge their bets. Basically offloading vaccine other countries could have purchased themselves.

I think it just comes down to where do you get the most bang for your buck. Money sitting in a bank/stocks (billionaires), or money in the pockets of people willing to spend it (everyone else).

Aaand voted down to oblivion. Pretty embarrassing the anti-vax crowd is so prominent on HN.

It's not your personal health choice when those refusing the vaccine are filling hospitals and pushing others out. And sorry no time machine, but I choose to trust doctors anyway.

You could make peace with the possibility of dying of Covid, or you know, just get the vaccine.

It's made worse by the iPhone's hilariously bad support in allowing users to update the URL in the location bar. Try moving your cursor to the very end of the URL, it's an exercise in frustration.

You are arguing that a vaccinated 80 year old can be compared to an unvaccinated 80 year old. A 80 year old Republican is less likely to get the vaccination. It's pretty simple.

So if 0% of those 65+ in one state have their vaccination compared to 100% in another state, we can still reliably blame this on states with older populations?

The Times article didn't get anything wrong, COVID is hitting red states harder. You can't just blame the older populations in red states, the vaccination rate is higher in blue states vs similarly aged demographics in red stat

It's funny how we all begrudgingly accept them booting people off for copyright infringement, but when it comes to personal free speech that affects you and I, people want to hold the line. Everyone has been subtly programmed that line

This should not have been voted down to oblivion. He's described himself as "founder" and everyone here is assuming he coded and designed the entire product.

YouTube/Facebook/Twitter have proven that anonymized free speech doesn't work. You have no way of knowing if the discourse is being generated by trolls/bots/foreign actors.
