You're wrong, because if your karma fall below a certain number, your comments wont show up anymore. I can show you if you like.

People shouldn't be blocked from commenting because their karma goes negative. Spamming, hateful talk, etc should be a completely different system. Just because what you say is unpopular (in one place mind you) doesn't mean your words should be hidden.

“Everything except what I do should be free to me.”

Remember that you can make your own textbook (and accompanying materials) using your own money and time whenever you want!

Good - the less government, the better

As a libertarian right leaning guy I opened your story with pessimism but I really enjoyed it and greatly appreciated the personal responsibility you took in your situation. People should be inspired by this - it’s precisely because of personal responsibility that you are so successful.

Yeah, it’s well known that oppressive regimes have 10s of millions of supporters.

Or maybe your ideas are just bad, and maybe the other side thinks your ideas are weak and doesn’t want any part of them.

How would you “fix it” without voting? And if it involves “force” why do you ever think we’d let you do that?

Many of us don’t care.

You’re pretending like the vast majority of people are being oppressed by some military government but easily forget that tens of millions of us support the president and aren’t intimidated whatsoever by anything people like you could do.

Very cool but the number of settings is overwhelming, not even sure what to do.

The trash thief will never be able to replace that. I guess insurance will help but that’s just another excuse for them to raise rates.

That thief should be indentured until he pays it back in full.

Because the manual usually sucks

You have to admit though, there is a big segment of the population that sees Burry's predictions, thinks of the Big Short, and then panics. There's been a lot of pessimistic news, but we've seen so many of these tech stocks win in the long term.

I tried to click on the link and it's just spinning with a 404

He's very often wrong.

There are always ways around it. Especially laws around business.

Your example about New York and Florida is a terrible one because it’s true statement. Why would you use that example? Are you saying it’s not true (demonstrably true with residential data)? Or are you saying it’s happening but not to the extent that the fear-mongerers express it?

Conflict is fine and should be tolerated. Breaking someone’s car because you’re part of some environmental doomsday cult or publicly identifying an abortion recipient is not.

I was in a fraternity and some city kids came down our street and busted into a few cars. A few of our brothers were up, woke the house and chased one of the kids down. He ended up in the hospital. People arent going to just call the police. You’re thinking you are nelson Mandela in jail and it’s not going to end up that way.

“Consider a world where you’d be mocked and shamed publicly for having an abortion. People would have them less and there would be less dead fetuses in the world due to those willing to sacrifice themselves by spending time in a jail cell for their acts of shaming.”

Just wanted to make sure you knew how that sounded, since either political side could try to justify their bad behavior.

What about the relationship thing? Most significant others don't want to live with their in-laws and fear failure to launch. Clearly not the case of a failure with your great income. That said, this isn't as much a buy a house point as it is a get your own place point, which could be either rent or buy.

Opened a small round bottom flask of this when I worked in the lab. Closed it immediately when I felt burning in my eyes as did others around me.

It’s toxic but not insanely toxic. Isocyanates, phosgene, gaseous cyanides - now those are insanely toxic

Came here to say this but you beat me to it- sorry to the author but home ownership gives you a real tangible piece of equity for the rest of your life if you maintain it reasonably well. This is especially true for people who aren’t good with saving money.

Not sure I agree. They have plenty of cash and can wait it out. The drivers don't.

I personally don't care about this as long as the costs aren't passed on to me.

But all Christians aren’t Catholic which is my point.

You mean Catholic believers, not Christian

Just skim the rest of the blog posts…

So to be clear - distros used by experienced Linux users are better than distros preferred by non-experienced?

You can easily change most things you don’t like in Omarchy.

Pretty clear by the other opinions this author has on his “blog” that he dislikes DHH for more than just the Omarchy distribution.

Here’s a fact - Omarchy opened up Arch to a whole crowd of people that would have never tried Arch given its notorious difficulty to the uninitiated.

Glad I am not the only one who found that title and the subsequent readme completely unhelpful, despite standing up and maintaining a VPS server for my son and friends.

HN is great but sometimes has the ultimate “tell them about the features instead of the reason why you should care/benefits” posts and many people probably miss out on good links as a result.

Well then provide the money and you can show us how it’s done. Seriously.

The workers take no risk. They can pick up and move anytime they want.

Ok, in the US we call this stealing. My bad.
