I think that this sentiment is jingoistic and stupid. I hope the US ant-war movement comes back, and bigger than ever.

Do you have any sort of proof that this happens on any sort of statistically significant basis? It appears most of the people in this country live in urban places and that this has been an upward trend for a long time... https://e

I make and upload electronic music to SoundCloud. Once I sent a joke DM to my friend, another SoundCloud user, mimicking a typical spam post at the time. SoundCloud's spam filtration system autobanned and deleted my account. I had it b

The point I'm making is that my opinion is that the founders here were unfair and that American laborers should expect fairness, not that they paid them some specific amount less than they should have- though I suspect you know this. I

If it's that unclear then I'll rephrase it: If you make a gamble that requires someone's help to pull off, and the gamble is successful, you should share a reasonable amount of your success with the people whom made your succ

It is weird, but I think we deserve to be able to both want both a world without needless war and safe communities for our children. Note that I'm not necessarily anti 2nd Ammendment. But to your point, yes it is very weird. War has be

The most troubling thing for me, as a typical millennial, is that my little brother has lived his entire life with his nation engaged in some far off "war" that consists of carpet bombing an entire region - and yet here (in the US

Is my comment somehow unclear? I don't think I said or even implied that anyone forced anyone to work anywhere.

There's another great thing about the west coast that cheap houses can't get you- and it's a beautiful culture of outdoorsiness and insanely easy access to mountains, oceans, and desert within an hour or twos drive- this is t

I absolutely believe our money is being squandered on a military industrial complex that is a net negative on the entire planet. I also believe that we need more progressive taxes, and to sit here and pretend that capitalism is flawless is

You're presenting a false dichotomy where the US can't have social welfare programs and be great - this is simply not the case. FDRs social programs and the labor movements of the last century arguably improved our country in its

This is it right here. A safety net(including healthcare, education, retirement) intended for all would be an awesome way to spend all of this money, but instead it gets squandered elsewhere.

Yikes! As someone who can't stand being the center of attention and also can't stand talking about themselves (yes I see the irony here), this is terrifying.

I was recruited right out of college to work at Cerner. Its probably still fairly trivial to get a job there, but you have to live in Kansas City.

The level of discourse you're pursuing isn't tolerated on HN. It should come as no surprise to you that no one is engaging with you- that is, of course unless you're being serious...in which case I feel dreadfully sorry for y

Some of these have come up for me recently, particular sed, awk, and xargs. Xargs in particular is really gnarly and opens up a lot of possibilities from the command line when used in conjunction with other tools. Love it! Not a program, bu

Cool Anecdote - but I don't see your point. It's still more expensive than it used to be, and you can't expect every 18 year old to make the same perfect decisions you did. I worked my ass off too and still came out with debt

I think you're right on. A lot of my friends are of various ages and backgrounds with different hobbies. Some friends I only see once a month when we want to get together for some beers and catch up. Some less than that - and there&#x2

It's a habit I picked up very early on when I was doing IT internships in college and it's so effective I can't see myself ever making checklists any other way.
