    As you can see from Mussolini's own writing on the Doctrine of Fascism, they hate individualism, and love the State. >7. Against individualism, the Fascist conception is for the St…

    It's a big holiday weekend in America, and having an outage seems like a minimal inconvenience, especially for those of us without an account. There are entire communities of peopl…

    Thanks for weighing in with some actual first-hand knowledge. It is appreciated. The latest on cloud hosting is from a week ago, and I'm guessing you don't have any more recent inf…

    His claim is that there are a few hundred scrapers causing issues, which makes sense given the recent changes to the paid API. An assumptions of good faith was once a well-held pri…

    I think you might benefit from reading HN comments about Twitter from ~2010. You will find many you agree with, yet Musk had zero to do with the service.

    Twitter could've simply announced they were going into maintenance mode for the weekend, and most people would've taken the hint about reduced availability. Many of us privacy frea…

    That's why none of the explanations given can possibly be thorough, and I'm finding very few plausible explanations on HN either. Most seem to be happy to blame whoever they view a…

    This is quite a ridiculous blog post. Hyperbole is way too common these days, and this is the type of submission that drove away many of the smartest HN users. I will always rememb…

    People say Twitter is not real life, then you proffer 4chan as real life. Touch grass, my friend. I went from pharma research (my degree) to tech to the restaurant world. We use lo…

    Without digging, I'm guessing you thought Musk was just doing a 'pump and dump' when the news broke in April, and that he would never acquire the company. This assumption of bad fa…

    Twitter acquired and shutdown Vine, Periscope, and Posterous (what could've been substack) among many others. They seemed rather complacent and uninterested in innovation, or even …

    Your entire first comment was an assumption of bad faith on the part of Musk. Given that Twitter is now a private entity, there's no motivation to act fraudulently. I think Musk's …

    I've got no problem with your characterization of Carlson, but do you honestly believe Blitzer is an objective arbiter of truth? I don't, and I think this myth among so many in "ne…

    TSLA is currently trading at less than half of its all time high. He could've made the same comment to a reporter from the NYTimes or Wall St. Journal with the same effect.

    The question, as always, is who watches the watchmen? We saw what happened with broadcast and telecom regulation for phone and radio/tv in the USA. ABC, CBS, and NBC held a virtual…
