Hacker News Reader

in regards to misplaced frustration and angst, pretty much, tech is mostly filled with frustrated, unattractive (physical and personality wise) middle aged men, who believe that the only way to find a mate is to swallow this liberal agenda so as to make themselves appear as more of a 'nice guy', and thus in their twisted little heads, becoming more attractive to members of the opposite sex. Typical beta mentality.

edit: actually, I should say that tech is not actually like this, its mainly the illusion that reddit and HN present.

emocakeson Results of the GitHub Investigation

github raped me! now lets start the misandric shitstorm.

emocakeson Did Israel steal bomb-grade uranium from the United States?

I hardly doubt they had to steal it. Their US puppets probably just gave it to them.

emocakeson The New Linode Cloud: SSDs, Double RAM and much more

incorrect, I have had kimsufi servers before and I'm not an EU resident

emocakeson Employee Equity

I worked at a startup, was employee number 4, and the 2nd lead developer after the CTO, I got offered a pathetic 0.025% over 4 years. Options like that are disheartening and really don't make you want to stick around for 4 years getting paid dirt to eventually be able to claim your $20k worth of options.

I left and now am getting paid close to triple my old salary with options getting close to 10% in a business model that is far more profitable than the previous. I think lots of people just starting out in the startup scene get taken advantage of and taken for a ride.

emocakeson OkCupid's CEO Donated to an Anti-Gay Campaign Once, Too

lets create a big internet shitstorm and make him resign. sad case about what happened to the Mozilla ex-CEO.

emocakeson Kimsufi: the affordable dedicated server

Just got rid of online.net, going back to kimsufi. I've hopped around between hetzner, ovh, online.net, kimsufi is still the best cheap dedi, imho.

emocakeson Dear first world dev, I am going to live your nightmare

who cares. maybe if '3rd world' devs actually produced better code and contributed to community (more than just joining IRC, asking for help, then leaving without saying thanks), they might be able to make a better name for themselves and in turn be able to bargain for better conditions.

emocakeson Meditate in front of your computer with Calm

Probably the worst place to attempt to meditate. Try doing it in a room with no wifi, nothing distracting, a room that has nothing to do with work.

emocakeson 2014: The year the Americans broke the internet

lol, yeah, everything is american, i forgot...

emocakeson Apple releases OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 with SSL fix

took me 4 reboots and 15minutes of waiting at something do with SD cards to get this crap installed. Even windows update works better these days.

emocakeson The Misandry Bubble

I'm with you on this one ^

emocakeson Ukraine protests: Before and after photos from Kiev's battle zone

no, of course not, I mean, the government is just saying that the weapons have been stolen, so that when they 'massacre' the peaceful protestors, they can point the finger and say, 'but it wasn't us, weapons were stolen'. Seriously.... you watch too much CSI.

emocakeson And this, too, shall pass away ...

Not so much these days, this place is getting filled with liberals who seem to have majored in the arts, not computer science of engineering.

"The Aegis BMD system is the linchpin of the Obama administration's plan for a missile defense umbrella in Europe intended to protect U.S. forces and NATO allies from Iranian short- and medium-range ballistic missiles."

Do your homework. (although I did mislabel the missile system, its aegis, not patriot that are being used here)

emocakeson [dead]

I certainly hope you were never on any debating team with arguments like those.

Of course the people of Ukraine have visions and dreams about their future. What you are seeing in this video though, or on any western media (and eastern media for that matter) is not indicative of what the Ukrainian people actually want. Jumping onto either bandwagon only because of what you read in your twitter feed is just stupid.
