I haven't been banned from HN before, but I'm not surprised that some of my comments resemble ones from those you have banned. Help me understand, please: what about that comment makes it a flamewar comment? I was…

I asked you three specific questions: 1. What do you make of the many reputable, accomplished scientists, physicists, etc. who do not believe that it is soundly supported by basic science? 2. What do you make of the…
That is not true at all. What articles did you read? See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20071582
That makes no sense. Testimony from the pilots who intercepted the object indicates the object demonstrated awareness of their presence. Watch this video of a U.S. Navy F/A-18 squadron commander (not an average military…

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear. What I mean is, if these organizations made such an announcement, and assuming that they were correct, what would you think? Would that be good news or bad news? Why?
If, tomorrow, NASA, NOAA, and the UN IPCC held a joint press conference to announce surprising new evidence which indicated that anthropogenic effects on the climate were minimal, that we could not noticeably affect the…

So you're saying that you don't care what the original author named his software, and you're going to say it your way, just to be different?
He's trying to tell you, in an indirect, humorous way, that the name of your product, when spoken in English and pronounced a certain way, sounds like something other than the name of the planet and mythological god.…
> And that's despite the Swiss having an opinion for being like Germans, but without the openness and legendary sense of humour ;) Friendly help from a native English-speaker: I think you meant "reputation" rather than…
I appreciate your response. I don't expect you'll see this reply, since it's so old, but just in case: > Let me ask you a question, though you don't have to answer it. Do you feel like HN is biased against the point of…
Friendly pedantry: in that video, you referred to vi as "vee"? :)
> We can see by your sequence of comments that you're not in good faith. Whose sequence of comments? Each reply to izzydata in this thread has been by a different person. Are you accusing all of them of arguing in bad…

Those release notes are some of the best written I've ever seen. Clear, concise, comprehensive. Gives a lot of confidence in the project going forward. Nice work.
> What should we do now? :) I don't know what the solution is. I wish I did. My point is simply that there is definitely a bias on HN, and I think few people would seriously claim that it's right-leaning. A multi-axis…
From what I hear, PUBG just has poor code, so let's leave it out of the discussion and compare well-made games. Of course, there is an upper limit on how much latency CSP and lag compensation can compensate for, and…
Perhaps look at it from the perspective of a software developer, Dan. A user files a bug report about bad output. The developer is mystified, because he definitely didn't intend for the code he wrote to work that way,…
> Perhaps a better system would be to upvote only? Then constructive comments would raise to the top and who really cares what's long way down? I agree. That's one of the conclusions I've come to from having used…
I think you're one of the lucky ones, then, that the anatomy of your ear canal allows the earplug to seal the passage without the pillow putting pressure on it. What almost works for me is using two differently sized…
Go listen to actual competitive FPS players, and hear them complain about having 60 ms latency. Listen to them complain about living on one U.S. coast and playing on servers on the opposite one and having 80-100 ms…
