Don't forget to subtract CO2 for all the goods/services we export. It's only fair if you count imports!
7 days later... my account still exists. I guess I've quashed the "just email us and we'll delete you're account" lie.
What more do I need to do to have my account deleted? I sent you an email as per your request, but my account still exists.
One great problem it solves is namespacing all of your styles. I don't have to worry about classname collisions because the bundle handles it all for me. Instead of having one massive global stylesheet, I have a bunch…
Seems like I disagree with everything this site is intended to be. Can you please delete my account? I'm sick of this site and its biased, self-righteous mods. I even sent you an email and everything, just like you…
> Stocks have price appreciation typically due to higher current and projected earnings Yes, projected earnings. Speculation. Just like cryptocurrencies.
It's not off topic, this article is about HN's features and I'm discussing HN's features. Just because you have something in your FAQ doesn't mean it's off-limits for discussion. You can post whatever you want there,…
Yes, because corporate policies are the best picture of the current state of American culture.
Us Americans left behind the death penalty as well, so you are being a bit nationalistic (racist?). The death penalty is against the law in nearly 1/2 of US states. Even in the states where it is "legal," many have not…
The only flaw I see in your analysis is that you seem to believe Europe is better off in any way. Feudalism is making a resurgence all over the west.

I don't think communities would put up with foreign ownership of local land where said owner literally never sets foot in a 1000 mile radius of the land they "own." Even following your argument, this type of land…
Your computer fan is as loud as a lawn mower? You can't have a conversation in your room while your fan is running? What?
I think it's pretty clear what I'm trying to achieve. I'm trying to get you guys to implement an account deletion button in user settings like you should have. I should not have to expose my personal email by contacting…

> I have tinnitus at ~30 because of loud poor-thermal expensive work laptops. I'm sorry, but I just cant bring myself to believe this statement. There's no way a computer fan can get loud enough to cause hearing damage.
Seems like only one step is necessary 1. Strap in seatbelt behind you 2. Start autopilot 3. Remove yourself from the driver seat, into the passenger seat And now the car is in autopilot with no driver. TBH Tesla should…
Because I have bad impulse control, and dang won't let me delete my account :) Apparently once you sign up for HN they have the right to keep your soul locked up here forever. I've asked for them to delete my account or…
It's not that hard to notice, there's just no official documentation or explanation of what these mechanics are and that's the extent of how "secret" it is. I think if you search dang's comment history he mentions it a…
Yes, it appears that way because of the way the moderation works. Comments that HN wants to be hidden just get sent to the bottom of the comment stack, then grayed out, then hidden. You probably believe that only…
I disagree. I think HN is good in some ways, but awful in many other ways so much so that it overshadows the good. Unfortunately the good can trick honest people like yourself into thinking the platform as a whole is…
With the bar on the top and the uncloseable bar on the bottom, this site was too claustrophobic for me to commit to reading the whole article.
HN is an extremely authoritarian web forum, maintained this way solely to prop up the reputation of YC as an organization. You're not allowed to have certain opinions because it will make the platform look bad, but of…
Unfortunately they still don't provide a PPA for their developer build, so I have to update it manually which is extremely annoying. edit: I gotta say, why the fuck would someone downvote this comment?
