Smaller subreddits (like the one you linked) are typically against shitposting as well.

Filtering an employer that finds having a couple clearly established moral boundaries "pretentious" would probably be working as intended.

I was speaking broadly; I make no claim of whether this person made a mistake.

I see where you're coming from. At the same time, what is the alternative? Is an employee of a company that you don't like condemned for life, forced to serve out their sentence or leave quietly? It's reasonable for someone

Oh, didn't think of that. I hope that's the case. Avoiding a gendered word would avoid this confusion.

Calling out women separately and grouping them with "freshman" is pretty messed up. No one mentioned gender and women could be part of seniority.

>1. 12 < 27. If I'm reading that correctly, one of the convictions was reversed; he wasn't found innocent. I don't understand. He served 27 years. You say he should have served up to 15. The difference is 12 years th

What's your point? Supposing that he received the maximum sentence for that, he still lost 12 (!) more years than he was due. I don't think that changes much.

A man lost 27 years of his life for something he didn't do. Just because he wasn't an upstanding citizen doesn't make that any more right. edit: To expand, if he were given a proper sentence for the things he actually did, h

The post title confused me a bit. The phrasing made me think that Murakami put together this collection and then "introduced" it to the world by publishing it. Actually, Murakami "introduces" this book in the sense tha

Treating "the industry" as a single entity doesn't make sense. Netflix takes that $X per subscriber per month and splits it up between all its different licensing contracts with different publishers. From the publishers&#x27

I feel like r/edc and r/buildapc run against r/ultralight philosophically. The first two are about having a bunch of stuff you don't need: for r/edc, stuff like multiple weapons and tools that rarely ever see use;

That's such a dope picture.

That's a big claim, do you have any further reading I could look at about this? That said, I wouldn't call purchasing cheap clothes "promoting capitalism". I'm still interested in user merpnderp's answer.

What does it mean to "promote capitalism"?

Also, styling your own thoughts as quotes makes them more convincing and tweetable!

There is about a 0% chance that this is actually Marky Z. It'd be pretty interesting if it is though.

Yes, combined with the fact that some HN poster touting three years of sick gains probably isn't able to beat a highly diversified portfolio.

I'm not arguing whether you've done better than the S&P 500 in the past three years. I am predicting with a high degree of certainty that you will not do so over 30 years (unless you sell right now while you're ahead and

Your comment and questions are only related to the post as far as they both concern higher education. From your phrasing it's clear what you think the answer to your questions are.
