> Immigrants have higher crime rates and we're taking in more immigrants, which is bad. This statement isn't the issue. What is an issue is that the establishment isn't willing to have a real discussion on this topic (ille

Then you don't need to do anything. Just use the default.

You're comparing immigration limits to being against abolition? What a strawman.

Eh? In my experience logs are some of the most valuable data produced by software. Debugging, experiments, software quality, auth trails, analytics, customer support, privacy, security, audit/compliance and abuse are all seriously usef

Isn't it wiser to donate $5 mil after you've lived a full life? Giving away your future nest egg is quite a rash decision for a young person. Especially when that money will almost certainly end up mismanaged or end up in the pock

Ah, yes, Joe Rogan, noted white supremacist... You speak of free speech with disdain when it's our most important right.

It's possible to hold two beliefs at once. I detest their ideology but I wouldn't dream of censoring them. If you're projecting the belief that everyone you disagree with should be censored, then you should take a look in t

I've seen centralised logging scale to FANG level, so I really wouldn't worry about bottlenecking.

I've been saying this is coming for years now, and honestly, it seems like people are really starting to speak up. I'm happy to see more comments like yours.

No offense, but this strawman is super telling. I don't advocate for the censorship of these employees, even if I do find what they're doing morally reprehensible.

Joe Rogan isn't even right wing - he's clearly a progressive (literally a Bernie Bro) - it's just that he's usually willing to talk to conservatives on his show.

Don't make excuses for employees demanding their megacorp do censorship. This should be unacceptable behaviour contract or no.

The problem is there's very few electable parties. I'm a fan of the Brexit Party but I doubt they'd ever get a real platform to get in. My only other options are protest votes, so all incentives point to the Tories. Being par

You're interpreting dang in the least charitable way. He's done more than anyone to keep HN a good place, so maybe listen to his advice? "X is racist" is not very substantial discussion imo. You're contributing the

Pretty much the Brexit issue and how incompetent Labour have been lately. When I was younger I definitely favoured Labour, but drifted towards Tory/Brexit party when Brexit happened. I don't particularly like giant power structure

> That's the point, isn't it? To understand that individual freedoms, and individualism, are not absolute and can be reduced temporarily when necessary. Yes and no. An individual right/freedom is immutable. It's not s

But those are vastly different countries, there are far too many variables to unpack before making a conclusive decision. Freedoms are being infringed, but I do understand the need to sacrifice. We're not being asked for a lot compared

Eh... Boris' job is literally to make decisions, some of which may be intensely unpopular or criticised by the media. Being spineless is not a vote winner.

Could this have been prevented? China was only able to act fast because of the authoritarianism (bolting people indoors) and the global supply chain is sat in their backyard, not necessarily because they're making the right investment

As an actual Tory (not popular around here I'll admit) I'm amazed at how Boris' attempt to make everyone happy has resulted in across the board hate. It's the same mistake that Theresa May made, so surely you'd thin

Positive discrimination is just discrimination, in all contexts. Older engineers don't need your charity.

It's still possible possible to build a house today and live in it, and there is plenty of land, even some going for cheap. But most people don't want that because they make that trade off for today's luxuries.

You clearly do not understand the economics behind renting. Wealth extraction as you call it, isn't pure profit for the layers above. Your rent pays for the landlord's mortgage, maintenance, inspection and risk being taken on from
