Because he hasn't been charged with murder yet. Same reason why his face can't be shown in NZ at this point - not formally charged.

We don't avoid saying the name of ISIS, or Al-Qaeda, or the provisional IRA or any number of other terrorist groups. We don't avoid naming Stalin or Hitler just in case another one…

Fair point, but she certainly could have done it without making it a big deal. But again, political opportunism. I bet it was a great day for her, huge for her career. Bush probabl…

According to his manifesto he expected this wouldn't make him famous, and used the example that very few people can remember the names of the 9/11 hijackers. What he wanted - again…

I found it incredibly childish that she did that. Like she's trying to stick her fingers in her ears and sing "LA LA THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN". He's not Voldemort.

yeah I thought I might drop in and make a well reasoned point in good faith. the shower of down-votes shows me I shouldn't have bothered (: HN is a bit of an echo chamber, unfortun…

We've passed that sci-fi trope where corporations now wield more authority than governments. I have a better relationship with corporations more than governments. A corporation has…

I don't know how you managed to turn a story about a gun massacre in New Zealand - a country with strict gun control laws - into a critique of Americas loose gun control laws.

You didn't go through the education system of the republic of Ireland - ie victimhood 101. The Poles moan about the Russians and Germans less than the Irish do about the English, i…

It comes from China, was developed in the republican era. It's based on a shorthand modification of seal script - though Japan was very influential on the elite of China at that ti…

I'm simply not interested in where laptops are going. I'm a healthy adult male, so a few hundred grams of weight is not an issue. I also find thin laptops very uncomfortable to use…

If that were my service, I'd be pretty embarrassed by the number of unhappy users who have commented on the blog posts about cancellation[1] and refunds[2]. Doesn't seem like a goo…

In 2019, it all looks terribly misogynistic. No losing your house, no alimony... maybe they were on to something. Let wives also be able to sell their husbands and bring it back!

The biggest impediment for me would be finding clients. IME most programmers dont meet a lot plant potential clients when they are maintaining internal software. Even if they work …

To deal with traffic you almost have to 'give up' on the notion of doing something quickly and resign to the reality of it, which is what happens if you have to deal with it daily.…

If the "UX collective" thinks that site is what user experience should be, then I think it's time for a military coup. It's really hard to read.

They can't stop being European - because Britain is in Europe. It's a bit like saying Japan doesn't want to be Asian.

At a guess - the various popular test runners are slow and bloaty.

Bundling + dev servers are place a heavy load. I'm actually looking into a way I can avoid using bundling for production but still get some kind of "hot javascript file reload" in …

That argument goes both ways. If your family was impacted by violence, corruption, and poverty wouldn't you pack up and look for a better life? Absolutely, and I would never deny i…

You're right. It's also because we live in 1st world conditions, and once your basic needs are met, we strive to address the higher ones, like fulfillment and meaning. I live in th…

I happen to think that immigration and customs enforcement is a net positive. I guarantee those people would be as well if they were effected by it personally. If you're not person…

This reads like something a child would write. Are you an adult?

If you think 8% is insane, then sell it yourself.

Lobbyists are probably fighting laws you don't like as well.
