   There are plenty of free VPN clients for every platform. I think the parent was referring to the server.

   Flying a plane isn't $500/hr unless you're flying first class, and it's not exactly what I would call entertainment or recreation. I wouldn't do the rest of it, anyways.

   Yea, I would not see a movie in theaters, and I haven't for years.

   That's not really a science either. While there are things like experiments and the scientific method, most of computer science is a confluence of mathematics and engineering.

   That's the kind of "prank" that's likely to kill people. I am at a loss as to how this is a prank. I understand different people have different senses of humor, but is there a context I'm missing in which it'

   Almost by definition, eminent domain is seized at under-market rates, because if it was the market rate, you wouldn't need eminent domain.

    Eminent domain is unfair. If you want the land, pay for it.

    Well, you're right that it's not a mathematical certainty that momentum is always conserved. But there's such a mountain of evidence for it that we should have a very high bar for claims that it's violated. Thermal effe

    I believe it's the majority of Americans, and among Hacker News readers, the overwhelming majority. But it requires modest houses, modest cars, and overall frugal lifestyle choices. You will not "keep up with the Jones'&quot

    You can fit your work into a fraction of a typical workweek and still maintain a 1950s-esque lifestyle. But the job market frowns on people working less than 40 hours per week, so if you want to go this route, the thing to do is work full

    Wow, I had no idea the situation was that bad in the northeast. That's honestly terrible for a supposedly first-world country. Here are the solutions I've enacted for myself in no particular order: - Don't live in the north

    I'm totally ignorant. What does "do the ramadan" entail for you? Can you just continue to refuse to rent to Tunisians and Moroccans? Does AirBnB have any way to detect that? Does AirBnB have recourse against guests who leav

    Classical economics usually take as assumptions that all actors have complete information and unlimited computational resources and are perfectly rational. In the real world, we have decision fatigue and may engage in regret avoidance and e

    The pileups are 'due' to people going too fast for road and weather conditions. If you can't stop within your length of visibility, you're going too fast, end of discussion.

    It's not ionizing radiation, so the only damage is from the heat. So they probably can expose their hand without damage.
