I'm pretty sure I'm shadowbanned by the HN-righteous-bot, but are you sure the FBI pursues with vigor? Have you seen how long it takes them to make a case? Years up to and includin…

Think of the metrics, won't you please think of the metrics. What will all the data scientist and marketing geniuses discuss without their metrics!

There's a new piper in town SV. You're still paying the old one, and so is NPR.

You write as if you've never heard of Nassim Nicholas Taleb or realize, this is an exert from a book. That has editors. And publishers. And have sold many copies.

yes, but that doesn't give you self-righteous, America-shaming browning points on the internet.

John Oliver gets his paycheck from Time Warner.

Just poke Mark Zuckerberg on facebook. He's really good at saving us from anti-consumer practices.

The stupid ignorant masses don't appreciate their intellectual betters on HN. They ignored hollywood, silicon valley, the media, and voted for Trump (with Russia's help of course).…

I prefer stateless machines myself.

I'm old enough to remember when our pre-bubble, pre-amazon "web"team found about javascript via the web monkey website with it's animated moving arms! Prior, all interaction was vi…

What if they didn't intend to be willfully negligent when they broke the air gap and removed documents from an internal network to a public network?

If you want hostile, read "The Inmates are Running the Asylum"

More difficult, but more fun once you got the hang of visiting sites that linked to other sites based on direct relationships. Oh wait, that's what the genius larry page commodifie…
