I would arguea HN thread about home security systems that shoot intruders upon home invasion would be tolerated on HN. So self-defense / death alone are not enough to flag a commen…

The comment you linked was an (perhaps poor) attempt to prove the absurdity of free market ideology by taking it to the extreme.

My goal with the term 'population removal' was not to be uncivil or inflammatory. Killing people is wrong, but forecfully moving large groups of people is something practiced by ev…

As a Turk, I think the identity issue is not that the Armenian/Assyrian/etc genocides didn't occur. Its that the exact same sorts of mass executions/population removals had occurre…

The Linux Desktop was never a thing so how could it be killed?

They don't have their shit together because the stock has barely moved in a decade. If you think Wal-Mart has their shit together, you've either been living under a rock for the pa…
