it's reddit-ization of the comments. Reddit -> facebook. HN -> reddit
what's happening here is reddit-style comments have been slowly but steadily creeping in. I dont blame the mods directly, but indirectly they should have just capped membership once the tone lost its tech edge and…
your username is pretty clearly a sexist reference too, isn't it? Don't deny it, you've already offended me.
YES! Uber should be personally responsible for reimbursing all costs. I'm glad you get it.
just be sure to allocate enough swap space for the gigabytes of bloat.
and we'd be better off if x+1 planes had improved quality/security software than x.
If there's one thing you should absorb from the Bible it's to learn some basic principles about kindness and love. Because nearly all your comments are tainted with hostility, snark, and utter rudeness. No wonder you…
I meant specifically in the US market where one aspirin pill is billed to the patient as a $30 expense. Not in a country with free healthcare.
They have that last part. It's called the count.
The fact that patients get infected doesn't mean the hospital rejects "germ theory".
The nursing shortage could be solved by hiring more. They overwork the few they hire so the MBA execs can buy nice things
Running a website is paying lip service to the problem. It's virtual help. You can't feed someone bytes. But go on thinking you're a superhero. While salvation army feeds tens of thousands per day.
How telling that you lambast one of the very few agencies actually doing something about the problem (for something completely out of their control nonetheless), instead of thank them for the aid they gave you. "If you…
Do you shelter your money into "tax havens" ? If so, why do you cheat the system this way (note: I didn't ask the question "is this legal", so please don't bake that affirmation into your response).
they should be sued based on the number of breached records, period. let their insurance company dictate what hash algorithm to use. Damages would be automatically awarded to plaintiffs based on what data was breached.…
People act differently when they know they're being watched. The government does not have the right to alter my behavior that way. Next reason is that their laws aren't enforced equally. This tech is more likely to be…
I heard about that. Local news interviewed a 7-11 owner who said he's toast because they're so low-margin to begin with, and shoplifting is already high. Maybe one good thing that could come from this: stores move to…
Steal from Grandmas porch: labelled a "porch pirate", told by police "we don't respond to property crimes, fill out a police report online". Steal from the richest man in the world: FBI is on the case with…
you keep backpedaling about bureaus, ignoring how 99% of the law in this nation is enforced. we can't have a conversation if you do contortions by reading the most implausible interpretation of everything I say.

Even with cigarettes, a product that kills its consumer even when used exactly as designed, congress wont' ban them because that would negatively impact a corporation. But you seem to think that corporations don't need…

teach them to shaft Bernie next time!
ok, they created a bureau, not a "rip consumers off and your executives go to jail (viz. wells fargo, HSBC...)" law. Great convictions are a start. but in order for them to actually pass legislation, they need other…
