If I were Apple, I'd try to arbitrage these exploits by getting somebody on the inside to find out where the attack vectors are. I blame the companies for being exploitable.

You could technically buy real shares and sell synthetic shares on the blockchain, harvesting the price difference. This would generally have the same effect as the blockchain user…

The parents choose where to spend the voucher. Unless you think parents value "100% on their tests" more than receiving a quality education. I trust a parent's judgment more than a…

The idea is that schools would compete for as many vouchers as they could, meaning they'd be willing to send buses out to your area, or find other ways to accommodate the parents w…

I like the school voucher idea a lot. Give parents a voucher, as good as cash, for their child and let them choose the school. Private companies will compete for those vouchers, al…

If you think about it, this kind of culture actually hurts minorities because an employer will think twice about hiring them in the first place. Why hire a black, hispanic, or LGBT…

I would rather have a work environment with crazy conspiracy nuts than orthodox SJW purists.

> I believe it should - otherwise we are in a capitalist dystopia Should we tax the automobile for displacing the horse stableman.

I think this whole thing is a great example of why you don't ban alternative viewpoints, even if considered "conspiracy theories". Zerohedge was reporting this early on, and Twitte…

"Pay your fair share". I cringe every time I hear this from people. Rich people pay WAY more than what they get back from the gov.

Honestly, I hope San Fran dissolves into the rest of the country. The mono-culture bubble in silicon valley is nauseating.

Employees forget that they sell their labor. Sell your labor to the highest bidder.

There needs to be "content as a protocol" in the same way email is. If I don't like one email provider, I can always move to a different provider without losing access to all the u…

This is only a short term issue. ETH is currently transitioning to proof of stake with ETH 2.0

I've learned to just avoid people that get caught up on such petty semantics. Language is a way of conveying meaning. Hyper focusing on the words being used, diminishes time spent …

The medium of exchange has transitioned from smaller local groups to larger groups. It's like a group of people all screaming in a room trying to talk over one another. The only vo…

The underlying principle here is competition. A worker sells their labor and a company purchases it. When everyone lived in SF, a worker wouldn't accept a job paying below $100k be…

I'm curious why people are so tender to the capital riots and not to the Chaz "autonomous zone" and the riots, continued even to this day, by BLM and Antifa. Is there a distinction…

It allows any react native components to work in vue native. Pretty valuable actually.

Say what you want about Trump, but at least he didn't come up with some new "Patriot Act" given the opportunity coronavirus provided. Never let a good disaster go to waste. Seems l…

The court system moves slower than the news. Many of these lawsuits are still ongoing. Simply stating "they were discredited" doesn't make the evidence presented less true. If you …

There is still meaningful court cases going on, in relation to this election. If you're curious to see all the evidence Giuliani and other lawsuits brought forward, here's a compil…

I think it comes down to group size and subject matter which drives meaningful debate. When group size is large, conversation is shallow. HN is a relatively small group with a rela…

Just having a paid priority issue section or a direct line contact to the core dev would be worth paying for. It seems to work with Youtube superchats and Twitch messages.

I appreciate businesses like Cloudflare that stay neutral and just provide their service. I don't want to have to think about the political beliefs of a CEO before deciding to use …
