I'm not arguing the comment was uncivil, I'm pointing out the irony that a comment was deemed politically incorrect on a story about the problems of political correctness. I get the HN crowd thinks very highly of…
Yes, mob rules, I get it. But this is exactly the problem with the PC crowd.
Methinks the commenters in this thread are exactly the PC problem those who support free speech are fighting against.
I'm pretty disappointed you guys are missing all my jokes. Someone got called out for name calling in a discussion about the problems with political correctness!
Sure, but the irony is killing me. I forgot, HN is a safe space.
You triggered, bro?
That's neat. If it's just a few microamps, I wonder if they could create a mouthguard to remineralize your teeth while you sleep?
SJW's are authoritarian, much like distasteful right-wingers. These people are like a secular version of the Christian Right.
Ultimately Uber is doomed. Being first to market is great for building a brand, but the barrier to entry is so low for this manner of service that eventually they'll succumb to death by a thousand competitors.
I gotta hand it to Butterfield's PR person because I see his mug everywhere, but there's such a thing as too much circlejerk and I think the guy's reached that point. Slack isn't a revolution, it's evolution, and…
I'm really tired of all the internet kids plugging nuclear. The numbers don't work, and the cost of failure is huge. We can put solar on everyone's roof and turbines in windy areas and it's completely safe, dumb nuts…
I'd bet a beer Apple comes out with their own version next year.
I bet Richard Branson did say that.
The salty beer you're referring to is called Gose. It's a salty sour (lemony tart) ale of low alcohol that was brewed in the summertime, starting in the early 16th century. Along with the electrolytes that plants crave,…
30% shared parts doesn't sound like a shared platform.
According to Wikipedia the Model S only shares 30% of it's parts with the Model X. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Model_X#Specifications
Lutz is right about cost cutting. The Model X is a boondoggle; even Musk admitted they over engineered it, and they should have made the rear doors optional for those who want a roof rack. A huge benefit of ev's was…
Pinnipeds are smart like dogs. Dolphins are smart like primates.
Patents are one of many market controls that keep capitalism from destroying itself. They are, of course, abused like many things.
I just moved out of a place I'd lived for 5 years that turned out to have black mold. I've had weird digestive issues and my immune system has gone to shit since living there but I wasn't aware of the mold problem and…
If you look up his father's history, it's pretty clear that this entire "controversy" was likely manufactured at the kid's expense.
Considering we have a serious homeless and housing problem in the Bay Area and wages outside of tech aren't keeping up with the cost of living I'm not going to feel sad for this guy. Respect the thrifty, but sad? No…
It should be noted, from the dates of these policy papers, that they are only a year old.
I'd like to see Facebook investigated for antitrust violations. If Google can be investigated, Facebook should be more so.
China has little rule of law; I have zero confidence this will be enforceable, but it's better than nothing.
