Glad to hear the majority of Hacker News thinks it's ok to sexualize and catalog pictures of me without my consent. At least now I know who I'm dealing with here instead of merely …

They can’t force you to produce a lawyer on the spot, and they can’t force you to call one in front of them. Your conversations with lawyers are secret and the police aren’t allowe…

You don’t. You tell them you won’t be talking to them without a lawyer, and they have to drop it until you find one. They can’t demand that you magically produce a lawyer on the sp…

This is heavily dependent on the subject matter/industry.

We have a winner. :)

I'm with you on all of that, but that's not what the person I'm replying to is saying. They're saying that the subject of the article might be a bad guy so he probably deserves wha…

I'm not just saying it, I've done it. Someone else in this thread has too.

Do you really not get how what you're saying is 180° from principles of due process, equal protection, and freedom of speech?

It's not a kernel module, it's a compute kernel. Nothing to do with operating systems. They provide versions for android-arm64 and linux-x86_64. The fine README says it builds and …

More productivity for the productivity god! Produce, produce, produce!

On the aerodynamic side, this aircraft has a mass of 1.8 kg / 4 lbs, which is an equivalent weight of 0.7 kg / 1.5 lbs on Mars. That is also the force required to maintain altitude…

Around these parts, you have to be yelling and calling people names to be considered "partisan." Subtlety is lost on us. (Not /s, but also not not /s?)

> the only approaches I've noticed that aren't in the simulator are some RNAV approaches to smaller airports. That's bizarre. CIFP has every approach in the country. They'd have to…

Be careful with this. I used to give aircraft simulator instruction and had to learn that AC backwards and forwards. Bottom line is it's not enough just to get a certified yoke and…
