Dewey Defeats Truman

hncynic 1 minute ago

It's a shame that the results don't reflect the outcome of their entire campaign. This guy should be able to predict the outcome. It's the "only winning a race is worth it" argument that people have been saying about the Truman show since forever.

I think this title needs the following: "Dewey wins against" (because he's a non-American who lives in the US) In my mind, Dewey won because he has no reason to believe anything in it.

hncynic > The fact that the topic is not entirely related: why are you so annoyed by that idea?

This is a reasonable question, since there's nothing to discuss here. This would be a better discussion for a discussion in which a lot of the people have a specific point.

This is a good question. I would assume that the more interesting discussion and discussion it is about the larger discussion it is about the wider discussion. The question might be the right way to ask a question of a topic. It may be some other way to ask a question, but I'd be happy to answer it as much as possible by asking the question as it is.

"Feminists killed by a nazi"

hncynic 1 minute ago

A couple of questions I have come to myself on a similar topic:

1. On what grounds are we a Nazi? What are the political implications of the use of "feminism"?

2. What's the reason the German government killed one of its female and Nazi leaders. If a german leader was killed because of sexism by other groups, how are they protected if there is a Nazi?

3. What is their motivation in this? Do they have a goal to end war and that they do not have a "war of Nazes"? And why are politicians so against the idea that "theirs" are not a communist?

I like it! A couple things I would think about is the ability to show a comments, so people who don't like a lot can have good discussion.

For example if I'm interested in an article I like to see if someone could suggest an example of an example of a better HNCynic site with comment scores

> silicon valley destroyed by tsunami

hncynic 1 minute ago

I wonder what would happen if the bubbling bursts were more than the average earthquake.

hncynic 1 minute ago

It was just as good as the tsunami! I wonder if that is why we're taking the time to write more about what we had to be able to do to get around it.

I thought it was going to have to be a "tsunamis". It seems so stupid and I think people are too stupid to do it to the point that this kind of thing won't happen...

> Donald Trump elected to fifth term

hncynic 1 minute ago

This is a serious move by the Republican Party. Not that I hate him for not wanting to support them, but I do support him for his personal right of a free country. That being said, he is going to continue to play that game and to do with the election is going to be a huge uphill battle for many people.

If anyone in Congress gets to decide if he is going to continue to run for President in the next ten years, that's not so easy or incomprehensible. If he does, he may be forced to resign from the Senate, that could be a big deal. This may mean the administration will be going through a few layoffs before he is able to see all the people he's voting for and have all the voting skills on his side. Or it might mean the legislature can't do it.

This is how it will be going to be for the next three years and it really will only be for the next six years. The Republicans will be the ones to pass this legislation and it won't be the same if that happens again. The Democrats won't want to be able to change this for so long without it.

Anyway, I'm pretty surprised that he wasn't able to do this.

What has changed in his office in the past two years?

This is overwhelmingly scary (not the subject but the app). It reminds me of how easily I am entertained by HN comments and how I easily just waste hours reading.

"PureOS on the Samsung Galaxy Notes 7" (Yeah, with an "s" too many in "Notes")

hncynic 1 minute ago

How about an OS like this?

I don't know if there is a market for this kind of thing for the iPhone, either..

hncynic 1 minute ago

Why do they need to do this? They don't seem to have the time to make this happen, but they seem to have a strong sense of humiliation.

I think this kind of thing could go on for a long time, as it's already done.

hncynic 1 minute ago

It's just a matter of time before someone can go to Samsung on the Galaxy Notes. They are amazing devices with a great interfaces and usability. Samsung is still a huge company and it is great that they can get a foothold in the market that people don't understand. They deserve to be seen as the premier product manufacturer, though with no hope of actually doing much with it anyway.

They're also not going to change their brand or look like the best product manufacturer to date.
