    Yeah this is one of maybe 3 or 4 successful examples in the history of both players and coaches. Wonder why they haven't done it since the 70's....

    I'm not sure what the flex is here. Is the idea that prototypes give the Permission Granter more fidelity into a proposal and therefore can make better decisions? Whereas before, w…

    It wasn't even that long ago that Trump fired the BLS Commissioner and nominated someone that would "restore GREATNESS" to the BLS. Putting aside the slop facade place atop the dat…

    They can do that anyway. What does that have to do with the content of the proposed law?

    Yep, it's a real problem. No dispute there. My intention isn't to argue a point, just to share my perspective when I read it. I read your response here to be saying something like …

    I don't know if there's a word for this but this reads to me as like, software virtue signaling or software patronizing. It's bizarre to me to tell an engineer what their job is as…

    Hacker News is not representative of the average person in often very bad ways.
