You've confirmed all my suspicions regarding HN and YC's ideological positions. Thank you, I will not be posting further on this site or directing any business your way.

I have a policy to return hostility in kind. The commenter DanBC was being vulgar without making any points, so I decided to respond in a manner befitting his tone. But since you seem to be a levelheaded individual, I would like to seriousl

A perfect illustration of my point. Sexual dimorphism is real. Your impotent rage and ridiculous ideologies will never change that fact. I will be greatly amused by your kind's zealous need to tilt at windmills.

New HN rules: Citing science as a defense against the current cultural paradigm is inciting a flamewar. How the mighty have fallen. I actively steer young entrepreneurs away from YC and HN, as it has become incredibly in tune with the echo

How interesting. So using a statistically significant population sample, there will be no phenotypic differences between carriers of X versus Y chromosomes? If so, science has progressed quite far in the last few years that I've been a

Ah yes, the Y chromosome is indeed a culturally manifested construct. Good point.

Indeed, the crusade against biology is one I watch with great amusement. Don Quixote would be proud of those who hoist their flags in battle against evolution, biology and the laws of the universe itself. Keep up the good fight, dear gender

We're already at zero sum when GDP is growing at near zero, a.k.a not growing.

You nailed it. I've been banging this drum for a decade. There is currently no feasible career that involves advancing humanity forward. Only different forms of plumbing the digital infrastructure which pay well. Everyone I know wants

How can HN promote capitalism on one hand, and open borders on the other? Open borders is the classic pre-cursor to a worldwide Tragedy of the Commons. Currently, we have problems keeping public parks clean. Imagine if all of the earth was

Biology is misogyny? "Words that do not belong here"? A dismissal of science combined with an accusation of blasphemy. Fascinating. Furthermore, instead of immediately attacking the host of a file, perhaps consider first indulging

TN allows for 3 years per visa and unlimited visa renewals, so as long as you demonstrate that you aren't trying to gain citizenship, the US embassy shouldn't mind. As a Canadian, I have no interest in becoming a US citizen. On a

Does Triplebyte do TN visas? They're almost trivially simple to do, so the candidate could take care of it themselves without any help from the sponsoring company.

Women in the United States gained the right to vote in 1920. The majority of men (non-landowners) received the right to vote only 50 years prior in 1870 [1]. This doesn't seem to be the work of a nefarious patriarchy behind the veil, b

I struggle to understand why you've been downvoted for this. Perhaps HN has finally become the bastion of neo-oligarchs it purports to train? It's all high and mighty to speak of taxes, but as the esteemed commenter above states,

The "pressure" for these women to find their ideal spouse is similar to the "pressure" startups face in finding ideal employees. That is, they want the absolute best at rock bottom prices. If you read the article, many o
