sslayer··on Show HN: An extension to track your Wikipedia adventures
Basically, this is what college should be teaching you - how to research. What good does are useless facts? I don't want to walk around cluttered with a dictionary - I want to know where to look in that dictionary. Obviously in the sciences there are facts that you should know, but even with math, its more about how to derive the formula, than actually memorizing it. I mean, their called "Research Papers" right?

sslayer··on A Cycle of Misery: The business of building commercial aircraft
They already have been. Tell me what other industry has as much oversight. The FFA exist with the sole intent of regulating anything to do with air travel. Imagine if the USDA decided that McDonalds had to stop selling Big Mac's because they found 1 that contained listeria, and had to inspect Millions of pounds of meat prior to letting them resume sale. Car recalls exist, but you don't see us stop driving when brakes fail or hackers can hijack your CAN system.

sslayer··on Netflix says password crackdown working
We don't care that your right, and its working. We didn't love you for your business acumen and superior number crunching skills. No we loved you because you brought us the movies we loved and you tried making it an experience that we couldn't find anywhere else. Now?, now your just another soulless money grabbing company that's lost it's way and sold out to squeeze every dime from its customers. Your just another in a long line of businesses that we reluctantly hand our money over to because you have one movie, one series that we love more than you. Once you lose the rights to that, or maybe you just push a bit to hard, we will move on. You have become the thing you tried to destroy, a parasite, a tick that sucks every last drop out of your customer, until we violently rip you out of our lives. Yeah, glad you were "right" Netflix, enjoy it while it last.
