coffeedan··on 'There have to be consequences:' Judge ups sentences for Capitol rioters
Literally anything we haven’t seen is “possibly exculpatory”, isn’t it?
coffeedan··on No One Wanted A&W's Third-Pound Burger (2016)
If we’re going to do away with fractions, can we also fix time? What kind of insanity makes this true?

12am < 10am < 11 am

coffeedan··on Ask HN: Any unfinished side projects to give away?
I've had similar idea running around in my mind - would love to get a headstart. Shoot me an email at the reverse of moc.eborpdnes@nadeeffoc
coffeedan··on Status Quo Effects Upon Hiring Bias
Wait, so you're saying the odds of a woman being hired increase when there are more women in the candidate pool? I think my five-year-old could have come up with that.

yep, those Are Kiva robots.
coffeedan··on Humans are slamming into driverless cars and exposing a key flaw
Who said anything about stronger driving laws or taking away the right to drive? Whether or not you have the right to drive, you don't have the right to drive illegally - with today's laws.

Reminds me of http://news.slashdot.org/story/14/04/30/2227243/grading-soft...
coffeedan··on Ask HN: How should I hack the hacker?
Easy to say, but you try having someone file tax returns on your behalf, order debit cards in your name, etc, and then not feel like he's deserving of a little "street justice".
coffeedan··on Ask HN: How should I hack the hacker?
I got mail from Experian containing an access code to activate "my" account. Apparently, this guy failed the standard credit report info test so they sent postal mail to the address on file to ensure he was legit. He wasn't of course, so I got the postal mail.
coffeedan··on Dataset of datasets shows no warming this millennium
that's great, but what's the "other issue" that you say the comic is about, if it's not about global warming (proven or not)?
coffeedan··on Dataset of datasets shows no warming this millennium
You've got to be joking. You don't see how a comic about a character denying the increasing heat surrounding her relates to people in the real world denying global warming exists?
coffeedan··on Starbucks Does Not Use Two-Phase Commit (2004)
If I have no choice but to get my coffee at a Starbucks, I will always order a "brewed coffee". The order is filled by the order-taker and therefore not subject to any of this barrista bullshit..
