HN was never anything different than Reddit. The illusion that it is comes from people leaving Reddit looking for another online community that lines up with their interests, landing here, and saying, "ah, this place is…
One side: "We should acknowledge trans people and let them live their lives" Other side: "We should arrest or do violence to trans people, because they are abominations, groomers, and freaks" You: "You both make good…

He's responsible for a gross oversight in safety that led to an injured child. There were obvious and simple safety precautions that were missed. This wasn't just, "whoops", this was fairly gross negligence.
Oh, that settles it. Robot cannot do things that are outside of the rules of chess. Kid should have known better than to open with the classic, "break my finger" opening from the regulation standard rules. Industrial…
Yes, I'm going to make the outrageous claim here: children should not be expected to work next to industrial machinery with inadequate safeguards. I know this is controversial to some, such as userbinator, who believe…
I disagree, if they are running the event, they are responsible for ensuring the safety of participants. You go skydiving and the chute fails in a totally predictable way, the company who takes you up shouldn't just…

Because the thesis is that automoderation is a problem. The entire point of the article is using Twitter as an example of a problem, not the root problem itself.
Good.
The answer from the federation is unconscionable. They blamed the boy and then said they could not be held responsible. Fuck off, a kid made a reasonable kid movement. If the robot wasn't ready to be around children, it…
Is it? Are you planning on running your own Daily Stormer or 8chan? It's not a slippery slope, it's not harder to run your own website. Don't extrapolate from a few extremist cases.
What? Even with the best moderation, humans will periodically brigade a site with awful content because they think it's funny to do so.
The article isn't about being banned on Twitter. It's about automated moderation (a side effect of which is, yes, a Twitter ban.)
Thailand has laws about how one can talk about the king, right? Maybe there's no safe harbor provisions for websites, and a site this size is too small to fight, but big enough to attract attention?
Ok, so you are saying current and increasing beef consumption rates are fine? I'm saying we should price the externalities into the cost of beef. What other solution is there?
No. We were nature, but we're progressing faster than natural processes can adapt.
What? I'm not sure what you are saying... We don't need to eat beef, both here and in Brazil. We choose to, in both places. We, locally, need to regulate harder and push harder globally to protect things.
"Need". We don't need to do those things. We choose to do those things.
We disagree, fundamentally. Amicably, I'm going to suggest these threads have run their course. Handshake and agree to disagree?
