Wow, this really shows the power of lobbying and possibly Trump's EPA. I would not have thought this was possible. In my mind "asbestos" has as bad of a media image as "Zika", "AIDs", "Al Qaeda",

Since this is obviously a fanboy war post: I prefer Apple because I feel like their products are more user focused. Android and Google's mobile environment feel like a platform on which they can collect data and sell you ads (not that

4 out of 5 of your examples are about income inequality, which isn't the same as how strong the economy is IMO. Everyone could be living in a shack and the poverty line = no shack and by your definition the economy would be strong if e

I'm sick of people romanticizing ASD. It's like people watched The Accountant and were like "wow this disorder makes you a super soldier". No, it doesn't.

Since it wasn't mentioned in the article or in the comments, max 16GB of memory has been the main complaint among our engineers. In the article, some of the gripes about macOS software is just filler. Safari runs very well on macOS and

Sometimes an article and the upvoting thereof express HN's insecurities so well it makes me wonder if every single post is in someway tainted by similar psychological issues.
