    If you think Trump suddenly decided he wanted to make a big deal of this and hasn't been working with Barr and GOP to draft legislation from day one (of Barr's tenure) you've not b…

    Where did I say they can't go against the President? I simply stated the reality of the situation and then my idea of why he'd do it.

    They have survived so far paying SV salaries. The non-engineering positions are practically disposable but they make up a considerable amount of bloat at many companies. Now would …

    Can't imagine why you're being downvoted I can't think of a single news outlet that doesn't do this.

    I would hope the tanks roll in if they try to burn the city down. The politicians in SF/CA have made every attempt to disarm the public. What happens when the SFPD abandon their po…

    It's clear Jack doesn't want to kowtow or maybe his ego is bruised but I just don't understand what he expects to come of this. The President has stacked the courts in his favor. H…

    Why is this on HN? It's not remotely tech/culture. I don't want to be a jerk but please keep this stuff on reddit where it belongs.

    I don't think anyone is using his service, including himself. This page on his personal website uses a google form. https://www.yupitszac.com/life-of-a-contractor/

    Twitter has some automated method of determining whether a tweet is NSFW and it is very accurate to the point where I didn't even realize they allowed that content. They can figure…

    How often are people bootstrapping a social media site? That's not something you rollout with a tight budget. Most websites do not allow user-generated content. This won't have nea…

    Sounds like you're referring to DMCA where as I was referring to heinous crimes like drug/sex/child trafficking. They do have protection right now in either case.

    If companies want to allow user generated content they should be liable for moderating it. The legal protections that these companies have thrived on should be repealed. They don't…

    If companies are going to self-moderate their platforms then they should not receive any kind of legal protection from user-generated content. I wholly believe companies have every…

    Godspeed to the men on board. And God bless the SpaceX team for bringing it all back home.

    This goes back to the argument of first to market or best. I have yet to see a definitive answer.

    Why does facebook need to do anything about this? People have been disagreeing with each other violently or otherwise for as long as humans have existed. Do they think they can do …

    If all you're doing is creating an MVP do whatever is easiest. But yes ideally you would have two separate codebases and obviously it's dependent on your project how much tools can…

    It sounds like you didn't read my post. My complaint was that its lazy developing to just take your web app and put it on the desktop. I was not commenting on the merits of this to…

    Please, no. Your application belongs on the web. I can already tell when applications are written with middleware, cross-platform tools, electron, etc. because they always run like…

    You really don't need much land to get by. Alaskans who are self-sustainable usually have small greenhouses they only farm in during the summer months. In a place like California w…

    Many people actually survive on that one check. Alaskans are fiercely independent for the most part, and those living outside the main cities are typically self-sustainable. They o…
