    > Immigrants have higher crime rates and we're taking in more immigrants, which is bad. This statement isn't the issue. What is an issue is that the establishment isn't willing to …

    Then you don't need to do anything. Just use the default.

    You're comparing immigration limits to being against abolition? What a strawman.

    For sure, but I don't believe it's the majority.

    Eh? In my experience logs are some of the most valuable data produced by software. Debugging, experiments, software quality, auth trails, analytics, customer support, privacy, secu…

    Isn't it wiser to donate $5 mil after you've lived a full life? Giving away your future nest egg is quite a rash decision for a young person. Especially when that money will almost…

    Ah, yes, Joe Rogan, noted white supremacist... You speak of free speech with disdain when it's our most important right.

    It's possible to hold two beliefs at once. I detest their ideology but I wouldn't dream of censoring them. If you're projecting the belief that everyone you disagree with should be…

    I've seen centralised logging scale to FANG level, so I really wouldn't worry about bottlenecking.

    I've been saying this is coming for years now, and honestly, it seems like people are really starting to speak up. I'm happy to see more comments like yours.

    No offense, but this strawman is super telling. I don't advocate for the censorship of these employees, even if I do find what they're doing morally reprehensible.

    Joe Rogan isn't even right wing - he's clearly a progressive (literally a Bernie Bro) - it's just that he's usually willing to talk to conservatives on his show.

    Don't make excuses for employees demanding their megacorp do censorship. This should be unacceptable behaviour contract or no.

    The problem is there's very few electable parties. I'm a fan of the Brexit Party but I doubt they'd ever get a real platform to get in. My only other options are protest votes, so …

    You're interpreting dang in the least charitable way. He's done more than anyone to keep HN a good place, so maybe listen to his advice? "X is racist" is not very substantial discu…

    Eh... Boris' job is literally to make decisions, some of which may be intensely unpopular or criticised by the media. Being spineless is not a vote winner.

    Could this have been prevented? China was only able to act fast because of the authoritarianism (bolting people indoors) and the global supply chain is sat in their backyard, not n…

    As an actual Tory (not popular around here I'll admit) I'm amazed at how Boris' attempt to make everyone happy has resulted in across the board hate. It's the same mistake that The…
