I'm literally shaking. We can't let this keep happening on HN.

Thanks for the link, I saw this post yesterday and completely disagree with the "experiment". You can see dang messed with one of my comment chains last week because my decent argu…

lmfao. "I agree, stories like this are very triggering. I come here for code only. I don't want to know about anything related to governments, politics, and fake news EVER again. T…

Why is the monkey being forced to pay for services already rendered to him that were paid for by taxes? Is there a budget shortfall somewhere? This is like saying I need to pay Ora…

You are correct. So then why do those same citizens yell at me to pay my taxes, when I am not concerned as they are, and don't want the sub-par and expensive defense services they …

I appreciate your response :) The real question is why are medical procedures so artificially expensive. The only thing I would really need medical insurance for is a rare emergenc…

Thank you for your well-formulated points and civil response :) Re: roads, I agree that not all roads are toll roads. The good news is that roads are relatively inexpensive to buil…

Humans have contributed knowledge and technology both privately and publicly. The real question is, why is it that today we have education and health care "systems" that have ridic…

I 100000% agree! The only issue is that on this Earth, far away = Antarctica, Bouvet Island, a barge in the ocean.... Surely there needs to be some middle ground where I can live i…

I greatly appreciate your accurate and civil response! I think it is achievable at some scale. The right number of course is somewhere between 5 monkeys on an island, and 7 billion…

Why is the average able bodied citizen unable to protect himself the local and national level? Why don't the concerned citizens pool their funds together to pay for their own defen…

I appreciate your POV, but why is this monkey not able to produce his own bananas from the trees and the soil?

I hope my POV can serve as a piece of history some day then :)

Now now now Mr. Monkey, these fighter jets are for your protection! And the blanket banana surveillance we conduct on you and your community is also important so that we can collec…

I am an American and I pay for all of my medical care privately, without insurance :)

"But since he does..." This is a fatal assumption to make ;) I personally pay income taxes, do not have health insurance, and on the off times I require medical/dental care, I go t…

I appreciate your response and POV :) Why can we not assume that the doctor monkey is operating a private medical practice, his daughter is sent to a private monkey school, and the…

"If you live on a farm off the grid...." I agree, the monkey that does what you described shouldn't be forced to pay taxes. But I am still confused as to why the monkey and his fam…

"1) Cheating on taxes is quite literally stealing from every other person in the country. That being said I think there is a lot of small scale cheating going, especially for small…

I actually completely agree, I would only use my version ("said to him") in formal/business settings where I am not very well-acquainted with the majority of listeners in the room!…

Also, "And I said to him, 'What are you doing here!'"

They are laughing yes, I don't want to speak for everyone at Dyn, but the people I know are laughing at how hard it is to escape Big Red!

I would say that we all have become numb to the negative aspects of this job, which as you can imagine, usually include: 1) (rightfully) angry customers 2) painfully arbitrary and …

As an employee of Oracle that sells Sun stuff, it really isn't all that bad :) But we are all lol'ing at the parallels here. A number of our colleagues went to work for Dyn recentl…

I agree, but surely as a public company there needs to be some kind of vision somewhere :)
