What does support mean to you? Funding it? Accepting common core? Accepting agendas that teach there 56 are genders? Your advice seems virtuous. Only support people who fund public education. However, is public education, as it exists today

Watch out for aging. My mom spoke French and Spanish aside from English. As she aged, she reads both and doesn’t understand why we can’t read too. My wife has a patient that speaks five languages. Her husband speaks 3 of them. As the patien

The Chinese appear to think, collectively, that authoritarianism is better than democracy. They could revolt. The Chinese military is under funded with failing equipment, though they are trying to improve in areas. The sheer size of their m

The iPhone allows the ability to use old headphones if you use an adapter. So you have to remember to carry that with you. You then have to buy another adapter to charge the phone at the same time as using the headphones. Say you want to us

Let's take nuclear. Jimmy Carter and the Liberals of his age were against recycling of fuel. They regulated that all spent fuel had to be stored in a super complex system that protected humanity from the fuel. The regulations are so on

Sadly we have to today. For example, I said that we shouldn't be forcing the idea that people should attend college. Rather we need to tell people to attend vocational schools to replace those who are retiring. I made the argument that

To truly seperate the controller from the process of invoking the use case and view. A better question is why does the use case have the presenter pushed as part of the invocation? You could easily have a use case take an input and nothing

Yes. The common use of the word Liberal means Progressive. Progressives, while sounding like they want progress, want regulation of anything they don't like. They want to regulate speech. They want to regulate the energy source that wo

I like Clean Architecture. There is a particularly annoying, but powerful piece: the Presenter. While it makes for some awkward code, it does separate concerns. The controller has a use case, which is the business logic, injected into it. T

I think the arrow points the other way in Europe. Their passenger rails are smooth for a nice ride. They run cargo over the smooth rails. In the US, once you leave the East Coast, you're on freight rails which are bumpy and annoying.

I phrased that poorly. I personally liked the look of Ionic. I read Medium post after Medium post while researching telling me I'm crazy to use Ionic since iOS people pay for apps and demand native appearance.

I know the article says that mostly techies will care, but has there ever been research into seeing if normal users care about native? When I look at many apps on the market, they are so heavily themed that the nativeness is hard to find. W

Thank you for replying. Do we have the infrastructure to compete with large shipping vessels? Part of my curiosity is the switch over that supposed to happen soon in diesel fuel. If the price of fuel increases, will it make manufacturing in

I'm curious about logistics in general. If the US rebuild its train system, by expanding it, would it make more economic sense to have production centered here? Could the US transport clothing from say, Indianapolis, to EU member state

Put the mouse pad at the top of the keyboard, not under your hands. For most people you only need a 1"x2" pad. Maybe have two for lefties. It makes more ergonomic sense. If you need more than that, you're probably better off

Think about how great this will be in the US. Finally, we can tag people who think incorrectly. They can be given low scores. All those people in fly overstates can just remain there. Hopefully the thought of a 72 hour car ride to a civiliz

In places like the West, the poor have air conditioning, refrigerators, plumbing, and large high-def screen TVs. While the people on the top have a lot of money, they can't spend it. The people on the bottom are living better then the

Who's dang and why are you self-censoring? Are you afraid of getting banned from HN? I don't think the site can remove your comments. If you are banned, I'd take it as a badge of honor.

I ask this out of genuine curiosity since I can't pick a definitive meaning: outing options? Is that ability to go somewhere or the ability to be publicly gay? My confusion is the first two adjectives tend to imply not pro-gay.

The species would be better off if we, in the West, did not have the centralized government. The population would be lower and better off without it. Starvation is a motivating factor. We've removed many people's will to go on by
