I want to feel bad, but shipping anything across borders is a huge gamble, or at least it feels like it these days. One has to wonder if the customs agent even knew what a floppy i…

> It's both the identifying thing and of course the steady (and mostly - high) income. It's the income for me. This career was my only ticket out of poverty, it actually saved me f…

> You say that, until you start spending those hundred dollar bills on therapy. The only people who wouldn't prefer that are ones who haven't endured true poverty. I have little sy…

Same for me as well. I've also gone as far as moving any paying business away from the US. I have completely moved off paid US services as of about a month ago to Canadian or EU eq…

> I’ve been to the U.S. a hundred times and nothing has really changed to make me blink at continuing to go. Let's hope you never get unlucky, it only takes one border agent having…

Again I do not care. The US has done more than enough to instill fear in Canadians like me. Would you travel to a country where its leader is constantly making threats against your…

The specifics of this case are largely irrelevant to me, the fact is I am scared to cross the border into the US at this point. For the foreseeable future I will not be travelling …

My favourite part of my .ca domains is that personal data is protected by default and I don't have to pay for it as an additional service. There's no need for people to know my inf…

Perhaps, but I can normally force myself in overcome fear/anxiety if there's a real benefit to me. When it comes to these drugs? I can only see neutral or negative outcomes.

I've read most of the comments on this post and I can honestly say none of them make me want to try hallucinogenics. It just seems like playing with fire and asking for trouble, es…

I'm not rich and I have this mindset. I make far less than most people on HN do, less than industry average too, but I've been able to live an okay life regardless. The goal was ne…

> So maybe seeing that at interview time is a good thing? Perhaps, but an interview is a fundamentally different environment than day to day work. There's no way to solve the inter…

That's completely unrealistic though. If you have a job that allows you to support yourself and doesn't make you want to veer into oncoming traffic daily that's about as good as it…

I am so tired of this gender war nonsense.

It's worse than that, if we're being entirely realistic most (all?) companies would kill you if they could profit from it. Proof? Cigarette companies, Dupont, and others were happy…

> What socialist laptop do you recommend? You have options other than Macbooks. The communist kid with a Macbook is a meme for a reason, they're out of touch. It's absurd to call o…

Even within the system you have options and ignorance isn't a good excuse.

Why such a hostile response to someone who cares about presenting themselves in a way they see fit? Your image is very important and it's logical that they want to control theirs.

AI haters? I don't hate AI I just don't want things I've created being used to enrich multi-billion dollar companies for free. These companies are behaving poorly and they should e…
