Rachel's posts would be so much more useful if she would just say what she meant, instead of twisting everything into knots to find a way to say it backwards so she can be sarcasti…

Let's say I want to donate $100 to IA. Here's how I do it now: 1. Go to https://archive.org/donate/ in any browser, on any device. 2. Click "$100", click "Donate", enter credit car…

Cloudflare's business lost them over $100 million last year alone. The way they operate right now is not a viable business, and we have no idea what they will change when they need…

No, that's not how a left join works. You really shouldn't act so condescending when you clearly don't even have a solid understanding of the basics yourself. That's a perfectly re…

What exactly makes that "one of the worst-performing SQL queries you've ever seen"? It has two left joins on foreign/primary keys, and 4 trivially-indexed where conditions. That's …

Why is a single tweet that doesn't say anything of substance getting upvoted? What value are people getting out of this?

This is just rewriting the info from the EFF report, without even doing them the courtesy of linking to it: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/01/ring-doorbell-app-pack... Discussi…

And now the HN mods have flagged this comment as off-topic, which causes it to be collapsed by default for all viewers of this thread. Everyone needs to specifically click the [+X]…

Please stop with this kind of garbage content on HN. If you want to read random people bitching on Twitter, just use Twitter.

I got the same error while deleting my account over a month ago when it was announced that their parent company LogMeIn had been bought by private equity: https://www.zdnet.com/art…

Blogspam of https://www.engadget.com/2019/12/14/snow-crash-tv-series-hbo... which is itself blogspam of https://deadline.com/2019/12/snow-crash-sci-fi-drama-series-...

If this site starts getting any traction, you're going to get destroyed by lawyers and copyright infringement claims, so I hope you're prepared for that. outline.com does basically…

What's the point of making an accusation like this without naming the users?

The image (which is basically the whole "article") even has a Budget Direct watermark on it. It's still blatant blogspam, whether the person/site doing it is well-known or not.

A meme-style image from cheezburger.com near the top of HN. These truly are the end times.

It's also suspicious that the page's title says $100 Million, and the headline says $75 Million. A bunch of the meta tags also say "$100" (without any "million"). Proof seems neces…

I hate this pervasive attitude that paywalls are some sort of annoyance that sites just "hastily slap on" for no reason. They do it because the subscription is how they make money,…

All laws start out as simple concepts. Then they need to be applied to reality, where very few situations are simple.

A comment like this being upvoted and responsible for a large portion of the "discussion" on the language creator's goddamn retirement announcement makes me embarrassed for this co…

A bunch of non-lawyers taking a tiny chunk of law in isolation and speculating about whether something "seems illegal" based on it is really, really useless. And this HN thread is …

Spend less time in incel communities. You're falling for baseless propaganda written and spread by depressed people looking for a way to "rationally" blame others for their unhappi…

List three examples of government shows of force that were successfully foiled by armed civilians. Should be trivial if you believe it happens regularly.
