Interesting take. To me it feels like golden age of hackers in the 60s-80s (which was before my time but I heard stories about) where everybody is doing their own home grown resear…

Weird that people are floating the idea of kicking out of a tech forum the most important tech development of the last 10 years. Not sure what that means about the community, but m…

Not a museum, but you might be interested to know that a lot of historians argue that "the industrialists" in late 1920s and 1930s Germany went along with the holocaust because for…

Why are you minimizing my addiction.

Exactly. This reeks of snake oil. I'm addicted to sugar. I have some trauma now? What trauma? My life has been relatively smooth sailing. You're right, this is just a way of creati…

Were they? My recollection is that in the tech space a lot of people were saying "it's just an app, why do they need so many people"

You guys remember how 5+ years ago, an headline like this on HN would invariably prompt cries from the Americans that this was just the Europeans finding excuses to take advantage …

If I try to rob a bank and succeed, it's not my fault if the bank doesn't protect it's money sufficiently well.

Now ask: what changed? Think about that.

This is why we need free software and free phones. I want the software I run to work for me.

> Why does the pace of discovery matter at all? Because I'd rather not die from cancer than die from cancer. I can't comprehend you even ask.
