Yes, but only 10 million times.
I really like this.
I think this is more the rule than the exception. The idea that states exist to serve the individual would be laughed at for most of human history. Be it God or the state, man exists to serve. Conscripting and killing…
Theres a lot I don't know about the Soviet Union but the "Enemies of the People" were the leaders of the Constitutional Democratic Party, not supporters of the party. I agree that people like Giuliani and even people…
The government imposes its will all the time. It prevents you from shooting me or overthrowing the government. Surely this imposition is just? Surely this is more benign then letting you shoot me or letting you…
We can definitely make systemic changes that help people make better "decisions." I don't believe in free will and you clearly do so we're kinda approaching this problem from fundamentally different frameworks. Stupid…

Maslow put "employment" in his hierarchy of needs. As a trust fund kid I've never had to worry about living in the streets but found that without the purpose of work I felt pretty worthless. If you live in the first…

This is a pretty first world-centric perspective. There are slightly higher rates of dissatisfaction and hopelessness but quality of life is drastically improving in the second and third world. More efficient production…
Thanks

These posts feel like ragebait. On the Hacker News welcome page there is a section about what constitutes "deeply interesting" and I feel this story falls under the category of a "robbery" and is thus irrelevant to…
"The Guardian was founded as a socially-engaged newspaper for the working classes" My point is that the pieces like this are inaccessible for the vast majority of people. Its meaning could easily be conveyed without so…
I've never worked in journalism but how does "You know something sceptical’s afoot when you find Larkin on your bedside table instead of Montaigne and La Rochefoucauld " get past an editor? I think I'm pretty smart but…
