> foreign bots

Everyone I disagree with is a "foreign bot". I swear this is the new form of American elitism. The fact that the leftists of the coastal regions apply this kind of thinking to even their countrymen only proves my point further.

> I'd take these warnings seriously.

Between the likes of "Iraq WMDs" or "FISA memo", I don't think I'm going to trust anything the U.S. intelligence and counterintelligence community says, thank you very much.

> you still have to leave after a year to get more than inflation

This hits home. I've been in software development for quite some time (10 years), I've been with 4 employers so far (full time) and pretty much all my significant raises have come as a result of me looking for a better paying position and then leaving. I may have been unlucky (I also did not work for a really large company yet), but I feel like the "career develoment" opportunities within software engineering companies are way under the level they should be.

Someone please explain to me why is this kind of thing on HN? This place is becoming more Reddit-like by the day. The problem? You only have one subreddit, the main one. Could we please stop filling it with garbage like this? Is HN really a place for dumping random people's opinions on investment opportunities?

If you don't see the "good sense" then maybe the problem is in you. Politicians should probably watch what they say, but they should definitely watch what they do. In the age of a random accusation ending people's careers (this year's events made this painfully obvious to anyone even outside of the college space, the #metoo overreaction and what happened to James Damore being prime examples), it makes perfect sense to watch who you're meeting with and under what circumstances. Don't "trust women"? What about just don't trust people. Blindly trusting women, as if they're a special case of a human, that's like something from a neo-marxist book of a social justice activist. Nonsense. Defending yourself from an accusation is infinitely easier when you can prove that you in fact weren't at the place at the time.

The other side of why this makes "good sense" is the temptation angle - you can't get tempted if you don't have an opportunity. Unlike what the lefties think, Christians are people too and they get tempted just like other people, especially when drunk. Men are like recovering addicts when it comes to mating (all heterosexual or homosexual men with regular levels of libido are like that, if you say this doesn't apply to you, you are a liar). Resisting a beautiful woman/man flirting with you is like being a heroin addict trying to not shoot up a dose in front of you. Of course you can resist, but it's hard, requires a lot of self control and most people are incapable of doing it without first experiencing the drawbacks. Is there another option? Don't put yourself into that situation in the first place... if you're married, there's no reason for you to be alone with likely sexual partners when alcohol is involved. All the cries about "sexism" of what Pence said are absolute nonsense and probably stem from the left's disrespect of traditional family values and marriage (they don't see having 50 partners in a year as a problem and an "open relationship" is almost a goal for them). There were multiple cases this year (not two, but like a dozen) of self-proclaimed male feminists who supposedly "trusted women" and "trusted themselves to demonstrate appropriate behavior" who should be the beacons of proper behavior when it comes to "respecting women" who ended up being sexual harassers, rapists or even murderers in one case. Does this prove anything? No, but it illustrates that "trusting yourself" is easy to say and hard to do even if your stated goal is exactly that.

Not that it matters, but since this accusation is very likely - no, I'm not a Christian... or a Republican... or an American.

Asking members to support journalism, The Guardian - I'm sorry, is this a joke? Buzzfeed (yes, that Buzzfeed... well when they're not making one of their retarded videos and actually do some investigative journalism) has higher journalistic value than The Guardian.

> I wish I could bookmark comments on HN

You see that "X hours ago" to the right of the username? Yeah, click that...

YouTube is demonetizing any and all content that is politically charged or even just not interesting to the advertisers. If content by Brady Haran is not safe, no one is safe.

I haven't looked at Go yet, but all these "is so easy to learn" and "generics are bad because they're not easy to learn" articles on HN, I have to wonder if this language is really so great or people push it because of the politics of people making it.

> you're more likely to have been exposed to bad OO code than any other type simply because there's more of it

That's certainly true, but as someone who routinely has to go in and bugfix/maintain classes contaning thousands of lines of code (sometimes in themselves, more often collectively in their inheritance hierarchies), the simple presence of extensively used member variables often is a massive cognitive load. I'm not claiming that I'm some rockstar programmer who knows better, but from my experience working with other programmers, member variables might as well be called global variables.

tl;dr: Mutation, mutation everywhere.
