Israel is more ethnically diverse than almost every country in Europe[1], what are you talking about? Regardless, do you want us to think that it's fine for the Poles to have Polan…

Would you have written the same sentence only with "China" and "Tiananmen Square"? It's really interesting to see these small mask-off moments when relatively veteran HN users allo…

I find it utterly perplexing how we as a society agree with a situation wherein critical communication infrastructure is allowed to be controlled by private corporations with no re…

I honestly consider it to be the best video game of all time. It holds up surprisingly well, which is pretty amazing since it's from more than 30 years ago.

The site rules are what they are. Besides, I'm not sure your search will be as fruitful as you imagine, mostly because reality has a well known liberal bias.
