I see that even criminals in Europe have manners. Until we figure how to replace domestic criminals with European ones, I'd prefer to keep 2A.

Without 2A, people like Breonna would have to rely on gentlemen like those that visited her apartment to defend themselves. For some reason I'm skeptical about this idea. Abolishing 2A would greatly increase safety for the rich, who wi

It wasn't a no knock warrant, though. They said they announced themselves. They obviously lied, but this lie exposed the truth that the raid was their own initiative for their own reasons. The lame warrant story is likely meant to hide

Zero accountability -> zero regard.

I've had the same experience. What could help is a constraints-driven drawing, i.e. we could split the drawing space into an invisible grid and say that these nodes must be in cell 1, those nodes in cell 2 and so on.

The protests and the surprising violence from the PDs have actually shown the value of 2A. If anything, I'd vote for disarming police, except maybe a few special units, because most of them are emotionally unstable and can't be tr

That's very good sarcasm right there. Perhaps the many years in the corporate world have made me too cynical, but I'd expect all and every protestor to be captured on cameras, identified later with face recognition software (remem

Does anyone know how a post with 200 comments and 230 upvotes published just 2 hours ago ends up on the 4th page?

Luckily, Linus is independently wealthy and doesn't need to play the corporate politics. I personally think his response is perfectly fine and may seem "too much" only by the distorted corporate standards.

It's apparently enough to have just a few people with visible power. I'm just saying, the reason we see so much snow everywhere is because it's the winter of the human civilization. And no, the winter won't end because s

It's a "toddler ego" that acts according to its naive idea of the world. Often, they aren't knowingly evil. It's known that kids are often cruel, but change as they grow. Same here.

Many comments here assuming that we can get out of this hole we've fallen into by changing laws or replacing the administration. Perhaps things are falling apart because of the massive influx of underdeveloped evil egos: they've g

Often, the driving force of such moves is not the founders, but investors: the company accepted a generous investment in past and had to sign a contract where the investor may wind up the company if the returns are low. In other words, it c

Nothing to see here. Ammon has tried a bold move to chase big money, used a few common tricks (release on Friday night, opt-out and other dark patterns), it didn't pan out and now he's doing damage control. When the dust settles,

You can even rent a trailer in the Seattle area and hire lawyers to explain you how to game these rules in the most legal way. When 500k/year are at stake, employees will be very creative (and, afaik, they are hired precisely for their

This is fine. Humanity has been descending into materialism to develop intelligence for long time and is now crossing the midpoint. That's why there are so many "ends justify the means" types around us. Soon the humanity will

Nice mental gymnastics. There's always a choice to not support the country by not participating in its economy and becoming a hermit. Ah, but that's inconvenient!

The entire premise of the app is that P[transmission] = F(distance, duration). I think this is a naive assumption and just the two input parameters have nearly zero predictive power, i.e. the variance of the estimated probability would make

From my armchair, the market situation looks very simple. When the economy hits the ceiling, people at the top create a crisis, collect the remaining value and let the newly poor labor work hard to earn a better life and create value for th
