You must be new here. Try mentioning anything to do with sexual dimorphism and/or genetics. You'll be banned within the hour, most likely by 'dang' himself. I've apparently skirted…

This is the main thing that jumped out at me. Any Ubuntu other than an LTS is not meant for end-users, as it is deprecated in 6 months. Why did they go this route instead of 16.04 …

Your remark only holds in the magical wonderland that is the USA. Elsewhere, medical credentials are required.

That well meaning computer shop probably assumed someone would understand that you could throw Lubuntu on that computer and have it work flawlessly. The common mistake people make …

Linux would have killed every other OS a long time ago if it had put its principles aside. Open source kernel, with proprietary, for-profit userland like Android on top to make mon…

It puts it into perspective that he's 19. Some healthy youthful arrogance. He doesn't seem to understand that 6 months to a deep neural net running on 200 GPUs and 1000 CPUs is equ…

You've confirmed all my suspicions regarding HN and YC's ideological positions. Thank you, I will not be posting further on this site or directing any business your way.

I have a policy to return hostility in kind. The commenter DanBC was being vulgar without making any points, so I decided to respond in a manner befitting his tone. But since you s…

A perfect illustration of my point. Sexual dimorphism is real. Your impotent rage and ridiculous ideologies will never change that fact. I will be greatly amused by your kind's zea…

> There won't be much difference beyond reproductive roles and other physical traits, but the brain doesn't seem to be affected all that much, no. Ah so evolution stops at the neck…

Yes, it's a bit of a massive story to digest without knowing what he actually did. If it was accessing user data, of course he should be fired.

New HN rules: Citing science as a defense against the current cultural paradigm is inciting a flamewar. How the mighty have fallen. I actively steer young entrepreneurs away from Y…

How interesting. So using a statistically significant population sample, there will be no phenotypic differences between carriers of X versus Y chromosomes? If so, science has prog…

Ah yes, the Y chromosome is indeed a culturally manifested construct. Good point.

Indeed, the crusade against biology is one I watch with great amusement. Don Quixote would be proud of those who hoist their flags in battle against evolution, biology and the laws…

We're already at zero sum when GDP is growing at near zero, a.k.a not growing.

> while a very small percentage of the population accumulates an increasing chunk of the resources... without any work. FTFY

Because he hired Henry Paulson, the ex-CEO of Goldman Sachs who single handedly devised the entire CDO ponzi scheme, as his Treasury Secretary. For those interested, more here: htt…

You nailed it. I've been banging this drum for a decade. There is currently no feasible career that involves advancing humanity forward. Only different forms of plumbing the digita…

How can HN promote capitalism on one hand, and open borders on the other? Open borders is the classic pre-cursor to a worldwide Tragedy of the Commons. Currently, we have problems …

>Stephen Wolfram does add a few self-congratulatory remarks. This is the man to a T. I think he would have done well in Victorian England. He is a clinical narcissist, and is incap…

Lineage the Bloodpledge, a hugely successful korean MMO was heavily based on NetHack [1]. It is still one of the most widely played games in the world (mainly in South Korea). The …

Biology is misogyny? "Words that do not belong here"? A dismissal of science combined with an accusation of blasphemy. Fascinating. Furthermore, instead of immediately attacking th…

Yes, it is. Marriage rates are at an all time low, divorce rates are at an all time high, never married rate is at an all time high, out of wedlock births are at an all time high, …

Compare the size of grasshopper to BO's little toy rocket. Grasshopper was a full Falcon 9 first stage, which is a production GTO capable rocket. What exactly is BO's rocket capabl…
