Given that Americans have committed more war crimes and human rights abuses than all other countries combined and has caused unimaginable destruction, pain and suffering in the world - I find it funny people complaining that China’s acrions

As someone who is fat and socially awkward, I am generally greeted with scorn if I smile at an attractive woman. But that does not mean I want to harass or assault them. It does not also mean I don’t have the right to smile - if you are unc

No need to "go" anywhere - thanks to RMS, you have got the freedoms promised available to you like any other user. If you don't like him, your freedom allows you to do what you want with the software (as long as you respect t

The same thought came to my mind when I saw the headline and the intentions became clear once I read it. Lots of indirect attacks on "free software" once RMS is back on the board. I honestly don't understand it - lot of peopl

It is covered if you hear the full podcast episode. Coincidentally, I heard the episode only last week and was one of my favourite episodes from this podcast so far.

It's sad that a perfectly good and neutral comment is getting down-voted without good responses. Just because it does not agree with the "functional programming is the best" trope.

Yes I could not find the original link too. Closest I could find is (the link mentioned in the paragraph below is broken) - "Interesting defense. While Chen has a good point about Microsoft taking the blame unfairly over this and perha

On Microsoft dominating - because developers don’t matter, users do. None of these superior technology would be willing to make an exception in the kernel so that SimCity can run (look up the story from Raymond Chen if you are not familiar)

Agree. I wonder what would the reaction be if Joel Grus was a woman.

I logged into post the same comment - instead up-voted yours. While online courses are often good, I hate the idea of learning math by answering multiple choice questions. The fact that this provides the complete proofs as answers will help

Not the OP and I cannot provide any evidence. However, for a large number of controversial topics, I try to guess the top comment in my head before opening the comments page. My estimate is that 70-80% of the times I guess it right.

Down-voted as it is factually incorrect. See comment by reportgunner below.

Same reason why every article about Kobe Bryant's was flagged to death in HN and not restored by the moderators; whereas an article about Bill Gates' father or random people not linked to tech get so many up-votes and comments.

Funny that you and jakelazaroff above are getting downvoted. I have observed that lot of free speech advocates generally get annoyed if someone speaks the truth.

Open source never had any principles. Open source is just a libertarian hijack of free software to ensure that it is accessible to companies without any legal issues.

Start by self reflection on your hypocrisy. Do you feel bad about regularly using services from a country which has committed and supported some of the worst war crimes and genocide in history? (if not obvious, I am referring to the US)

[Off-topic] In the Mass Effect games series, Geth (a synthetic race) warships don't have windows as they are considered a structural weakness. In the game, there are some interesting conversations based on that.

Funny how being against racism is now considered left-wing politics.

While the rules make sense, it is often not realistic due to business constraints. What tends to happen in real life is that the profiling and optimization of bottlenecks is forgotten once the software is "ready". I would propose
