Apologies if this question is too stupid, I mean no disrespect, just trying to understand things better. If gender is a complete social construct and 'man' and 'woman' are something that is traits observed within an ongo

When reason fails, use fear or violence eh? The US is in a bad state today because people have forgotten how to speak to each other respectfully, they don't agree to disagree, they violently disagree. Fear mongering and labeling will o

A HN reader not knowing Jim Keller is a bit surprising. He is a well known name in tech communities.

I know is a massive overkill, but how is the experience of reading books (pdfs)on the iPad Pro ? (Reading books on a laptop is a pain and phones are too small)

Thanks for sharing your story. Real life stories like your give far more insights to life than cooked up biographies of billionaires.

I don't know where you are from, but for people in developing countries even a lower middle class American life is far better than being relatively rich and fighting the daily hassle of living in their home country.

There is a reason we differentiate terms like "accident" and "collision" in the English language. Using the same term to define multiple things is not helping men or women. Feminism, I believe, needs to make better use o

This law if intended for capital preservation is solely aimed at the middle class, the rich already have means of moving their money out. Panama papers and Swiss Bank fiascos proved that well. India's iron handed squeeze of the middle

I have asked this previously, asking again, believing bitcoin will become digital gold is believing - * US will let go of the petrodollar / reserve currency status. * China will allow a democratic process to control their currency &#x2

A few questions I need help with - If bitcoin becomes a store of value / digital gold and people increasingly hold their wealth in Bitcoin countries will lose the ability control and regulate their own economy. 1) Why would any countr

This is the one podcast on Naval's Youtube channel that I found wired. Most of what Naval says makes clear sense to me, but the conversation with Kapil & Kapil's twitter+website gave me all kinds of wrong vibes. I have seen to

The poor get swindled most by retailers. Small and large retailers bribe too, but with cartels, vote bank politics and threats of violence. Should the end customer eternally pay for these middle men because they bribe politicians and use em

This article looks at data without understanding the reason behind it. Many educated Indians choose to buy from these 33 Amazon owned / equity linked sellers because of the experience they offer - odds of receiving wrong/damaged p

In that case every rapper who says the N**a word in a rap song or calls his buddies that should get banned from all platforms. A terrorist speaking in an encoded message to cause wilful harm is still liable for it, even if the words don&#x2

How many pandemics have we had in our lifetime ? This is like saying buy a Hummer for that one off road drive you take in a decade and suffer its drawbacks for 99% of your use case. Have vast sprawling houses protected US from COVID-19 ? Le

In support of your comment, why can't apple have a few DIRECT EMPLOYEES at each major supplier factory full time to monitor the working conditions and terms adherence on a day to day basis ?

I have nothing against Apple. I respect them for their stand on privacy, I respect their innovation in hardware, but, this is not the first time their suppliers have used slave labor. It happened multiple times in China, now its happening i

I have wondered for a long time why can't we have a Kickstarter / some crowdfunding started to port Linux to ARM phones. We spend so much money on phones, if we donate $1 a month for a few months and fund a few top class open sou
