I love this comment because it doesn't state a position and can be used as proof of being right no matter the outcome. Brilliant.

I find it difficult to take articles with such an aggressive tone and that exaggerate unimportant points seriously. For instance: > you’re back to approving cookie access every single goddamn time you load an article at The Guardian I ho

While the comments cover a lot of ground there are two things that aren't completely addressed in my opinion. 1. It's not merchant fees or inconvenience. E-wallet apps are very common in Asia and they let you load an amount once a

I think that this is a (smart) move to show Australia what they're willing to do and what they're not. I haven't yet formulated a complete opinion on this whole situation though. On the one hand the issue of Google showing be

Lobbying power. Similar to how the cinemas prevented any film that doesn't debut in a specific number of cinemas for a specific exclusive period from being included in festivals and being eligible for rewards.

When it comes to humor like that only HHGTTG -- that I (un)fortunately read first -- has been entertaining. Everything after that seemed as if it was trying to emulate it.

It's quite simple to set up on EC2. The ansible playbook works well.

I honestly don't understand how this got so out of control. First of all while there are so many contributors the vast majority of commits seem to be by elastic team members. Secondly, elastic provides a lot more than just the code. Th

As far as I understand it, you couldn't because the following commits would use be under the new license. And if I remember correctly from some other similar case, picking a commit might create a new version which is then entirely unde

And the AUS government can would then say "You're in breach of this code, billions please."

Isn't one of the reasons that the total cost of employing a person being significantly higher. I believe I read that in Europe it's often calculated to be about twice the person's salary. I could be mistaken but don't ha

I've been working remotely for about 5 years and the first two were like this. When I realized how unhappy it made me I made a conscious effort to stop. I set an alarm at 6pm and when it rang I'd stop working. The most difficult p

The Philippines are the most extreme example of logistics difficulties. Even so the issue isn't the spread out population but the fact that ecomm penetration in the Philippines is significantly less per capita therefore the profits sim

FYI the "Rezi Is A Resume Builder For Top Companies" sections doesn't work well on mobile.

I think the landing page should be adjusted so that the embedded resume doesn't look like the final product. Perhaps screenshots of the sections and features instead. A decent amount of feedback here seems to be because people didn&#x2

Anecdotally, my experience is that this is true however I get hungry earlier. So the net result is null.

One thing that I think you might not have considered is that wjile $2500 in rent does include the things you mentioned it is on top of the cost of the space itself. The landlord probably pays $1500 in mortgage.

Better title for the article would be: "Should I buy a house in the US as an investment?" For an actual answer whether to buy a house I'd consider one of the many region specific rent vs. buy calculators instead.

I think I really need to learn about how and why unrelated aspects can be part of the same bill. In this case the stimulus, Section 230, election advisory committee and election access disclosure. Seems like they should be at least three bi

I've been using the HN RSS for a long while. It works fine in your reader of choice. I am kind of disappointed with this submission though because I was expecting an analysis of the people who read HN, aka HN readers.
