It turns out that a calm, carefully written appeal for direct ethnic violence by an adult is more horrible than any unhinged edgy "alt-right" rant by a teenager. If I was calling f…

A good fraction of these in service or development missiles still use them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramjet#Missiles_using_ramjets And the no longer in service Sea Dart was re…

In addition to all the other stuff, I'll add that one thing employers like to see, in fact, it's one of the Official and simple metrics about whether a man will be successful in li…

And buy or borrow a copy of his iconic book https://www.amazon.com/Computer-Lib-Dream-Machines-Revised/d... it's not long, won't take you too long to read the first time.

Indeed, I can't disagree with anything you say. But here's something that instead of entirely delegating, that at least for me is "hands on work": teaching (note also huddo121's re…

That your biggest objection to the Nazis is their supposed socialism is a pretty big red flag. I said it was a "clue", which does not even begin to make it my "biggest objection". …

Well, you can always simulate this at home ^_^; my recent lifestyle changes (buying and renovating a home built in 1910, i.e. I'm cash poor right now) have resulted in my eating on…

and how few resources the rest of us have to combat it Review my recent threads in the last 24+ and see exactly how many people publicly support vs. oppose me. There seem to be a s…

You're just name-calling by labeling me a neo-Nazi, I'm pretty sure I've shown no such tendencies nor harbor any. That I assign the NASDP to the loathsome Left as they labeled them…

Nor do I think some calculus balancing good posts versus bad posts is being done by the mods. It is, though, based on ... dang's comments I think, in a previous incident. They to d…

Indeed they do, the national ACLU proper is a 501(c)(4) like the NRA, and both have 501(c)(3) charities for stuff that fits with and is legal to do under those constraints. E.g. th…

Classic NTP is hardly the only game in town. For example, see the NTPsec work in progress: https://www.ntpsec.org/ which I'll probably transition to someday, maybe even get an el-c…

Good point, and for that matter, a Dark Pattern they could decide is a bad idea (especially if it's not authorized at a high enough level) would be a lot better than a regression t…

Yeah, I don't do 1-Click (e.g. didn't start Prime until 2 years ago), and I've seen that sort of thing on my consolidated orders when I check out. Sometimes I can get it isolated t…

Another possibility is that 1 and 2 day shipping gets you put in different queues for available stock; if they don't have enough Exploding Kittens (?!?!?!!!) on hand right now to f…

Sorry, but you don't get to define what the Alt Right is, the members of it have that privilege. Any reason you don't show us the respect of self-identity that you, at minimum, des…

Direct replacement of a citizen or permanent resident employee with an H-1B visa holder is technically illegal. Weasel word because up to now, the DoJ has not seen fit to prosecute…

We don't know that. But we remember. Microsoft will have to continue to be a good citizen for years, probably decades , before we trust them again. Although it would be churlish an…

Previous discussion on why normal, "experienced" very much in the wrong way people were not picked for this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13040395 TL;DR: "neo-cons" + Reaga…

Thanks for your boost to my point about freedom of speech, but mine was more narrow, i.e. almost all large groups of people acting in concert form corporations for all the usual re…

No, you mistake not caring with not calling out those who misrepresent me, e.g. I didn't start it out with the Jews, eli_gottlieb did here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=130…

He's hardly the only one, see e.g. Sessions, his pick for AG, which will allow them to crack down on the white line illegal uses of H-1B visas without any need for new legislation.…

That doesn't work when it comes to states with even SYG laws. Really??? Evidence, please, for I'm not aware of this being a serious problem, and this is one of my domains of semi-e…

This has happened in the United States during the AIDS scare of the 80s. Hospices, hospitals, and individual medical staff refused to treat AIDS patients. Were you, you know, actua…
