Screenwriters re-write portions of scripts all the time, yet are rarely granted writing credit on the script. Every hollywood script has had at least 4-5 writers on it, yet only on…

Now if there were only a way to automate the showing up, preparing the paper work, competing against other bidders, and the remainder of the apartment leasing process. Task rabbit?…

They also do this in a TV series called "Charlie Jade." In the show there are three known universes and each has its own distinct color and hue. You know which one you're looking a…

You didn't answer my question. What legal right don't they have? Or, as you say, what legal right can't they exercise?

but isn't it at least a little exaggeration to say that Silicon Valley is the main "trench of the global gender war" It's an exaggeration to say there's a gender war at all. It's f…

being so stupid and shortsighted as to be almost unbelievable. If something seems to good to be true, it usually is. When somebody writes an article alleging something too stupid t…

I posted a question elsewhere in this thread asking why the tech industry has been getting the brunt of the diversity shakedown. That's easy: it's influential. They started with th…

Define equal. Then tell me what legal rights women have that men don't have. Because I can name about five legal rights that women have that men don't.

The enemy isn't the patriarchy, it's feminism. They create straw men to attack because they want power. There is no global gender war. It's being fabricated in real time to justify…

Name one right men have that women don't have.

> I'm grateful that HN's more active moderation is taking out some of the trash. I don't see it that way. I read those comments and there's very little vitriol in there. There's a …

They didn't lose. On the contrary, they won.

I sympathize with both sides. It does frustrate me as well, but if the interviewers did that, people would stop agreeing to do interviews with them. It effectively prevents the int…

Have you ever tried to program a controller? It's hard too. You need special hardware, special software and know how to connect them all up. It's not just copying and pasting code …

We have computer-controlled braking and throttles now Couldn't the same case be made for doing your own mechanic work, though? We have braking, which is hydraulic and throttles whi…

A framework must CALL YOU. It usually gives you a piece of code that loads itself and lets you customize what it does by passing your code/configs to it. Then you tell it to run wi…

It used to be that people who bought property became owners. Depending on who you ask, that stopped being the case the minute states started charging property tax. It's not yours, …

The owners are obliged to leave a path open so the public can access the beach. Can you be held liable in Brazil for things that happen on your property? For example, if somebody h…

I don't know the pertinent CA laws, but in NY you can be fined for not shoveling snow off of your sidewalk and you are required to keep the sidewalk in good repair. If the sidewalk…

I'm US based and I've been taking things apart for 25 years. I've seen hex, torq, hell nintendo used those weird Y screws for a while. Had to google Posidriv and I've never seen on…

If you've never worked outside of Tech, I can understand why you would think that. If you have, then I apologize for the miscategorization, but I find this attitude prevalent in Te…

Isn't that basically rolling your own framework? :) shrug Personally, I don't see it that way. Frameworks are more generalized and reusable. They tend to be so large because they h…

I actually had to look up what doxxing is! I realized I had never gotten a proper definition. Doxxing refers to the practice of investigating and revealing a target subject’s perso…
