May I ask how you generated this?

There are certainly things Biden can be criticized for but your comment is hyperbole that has little bearing on reality -

> most of the major cities here are no longer safe

objectively, nearly every major cities is safer now than at virtually any time in the past 50 or so years.

> massive hordes of illegal immigrants

This uptick trend has been noticeable for the last 30 years so I'm not sure how this is attributable to Biden. Additionally, as a percentage, we are still not yet relative to the percentage of population that is an immigrant as compared to the late 1800s. https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/frequently-requested...

> But yes, I agree, ignoring the reality of all of those things, pretty good!

But yes, I agree, if you ignore reality, you can blame Biden for everything :)

I'm more impressed that only 25.9% have been killed by a moving locomotive ("Watch your step" achievement). Those things are murder-vehicles.

Each of the features provided by the above apps would also require an app to be installed for Windows, too. Not sure how this can be leveled as an OSX criticism.

If anyone finds this interesting, I would also like to recommend watching Jon Stewart’s Wordplay. It is much more interesting than it sounds.

Maybe I’m naive but what exactly is this? I couldn’t figure anything out from the website other than it’s a handheld device that shows a text console. What is a “fantasy console”? Why would a indie game developer want one of these devices?

This is not correct. All that means is that the inventory is stored and fulfilled from Amazon’s warehouses. Commingled is a (minority) subset of that.

> amazon only sells counterfeit books anymore

This statement is (obviously) false as 99.9+% of all books sold on Amazon are authentic. Yes, Amazon should do even more to combat counterfeit everything but inflammatory, false comments are not productive.

Serious question - mind sharing what you enjoy about NMS multiplayer? I tried it recently but the mission goals weren’t shared. So basically, we were playing two “solo” campaigns next to each other and got bored. Is there more to it?

I have AT&T and see “suspected spam” calls on my iPhone.

The code should explain what it does. In-line comments should provide explanation for any non-intuitive code that can’t be refactored to an intuitive state. The function comments should be about the intent of the code.

Beyond what others have mentioned about requiring the Chrome extension, I would strongly recommend altering the language in FAQ - "How do I make You.com my default search engine?"

It vaguely references "the monopoly" in ominous tones. This comes across as petulant and distracting. Just focus on the instructions to set it as the default and how to respond to questions that try to change it back.

Well deserved. It’s a rare show that is not only genuinely funny but makes you feel better about life.

What percentage of "sensible" Americans? If there's anything we've learned over the past several years, many Americans are not sensible.

My point is that I don't think sensibility is measurable so there is no way to assert "sensible" people want Amazon broken up.

Source? I consider myself “sensible”, do not agree with this statement, and haven’t seen any data that would suggest the “majority” would agree.

Yes. It is the only “channel” that seems to focus on quality programming instead of marketing/engagement. And the shows are just straight-up excellent.

In the article, what does CTR stand for? Did miss it?

We must not travel in the same circles. :-)

Of the people I know who have seen a David Lynch movie, I haven’t met anyone who enjoyed them. Speaking for myself, Mulholland Drive is definitely in the running for worst movie I’ve ever seen.

This post makes no sense to me. As one of the so-called FANGs, the data suggests Apple is one of the most desirable jobs out there.

What are schools like in Lisbon?

> Meanwhile, the liberals are in favor of big business above all else and will gladly vote to bail out companies while their attempts to help working class families is an utter joke.

Your definition of liberal seems very different than the typical definition.

Interesting way of managing risk. Curious - Does this rule of thumb have a name?

No, it's the opposite.

I'm not sure how Amazon was mediocre by any measure in 2008 but your second statement is incorrect - AWS only accounts for ~10% of Amazon's revenue. https://venturebeat.com/2019/01/31/amazon-earnings-q4-2018/

The minority on HN, maybe. Definitely not to the general public. The general user is almost certainly not using more than 1 tab at any time.

That's only one way of defining it. Without context, it can mean many different things.

Geographically, sure. However, "the South" can mean a lot of different things. e.g. "the South" culturally does not apply to much of Virginia, Texas, or Florida.

Seems like the post should provide some context. What exactly is the issue?

Seattle has some pros but, of the 9 points listed, 4 of them are wrong - #1-3, as mentioned above, are invalidated by the insane water rates in Seattle. #8 is subjective but this is literally the first time I've ever heard someone say Seattle had a great culture. Edit: Also, the weather in Seattle may be "moderate" temperature-wise but it's definitely not for everyone and the majority of folks would just classify it as "dreary".

> arguably the outdoor recreation capital of the US ... as long as you don't mind being damp the whole time. It's not a nice place to be outdoors much of the year.
