maimeowmeow··on Google just deleted my nearly 10-year-old free and open-source Android app
Google has a new policy to not rock the boat, including snitchin on anyone who might be.

Probably not that large of a group of people that both read hacker news, read this exact article, even care about such things, and work at google. At a company of that size, they are maybe fancy cogs, but still replaceable.

maimeowmeow··on Boom in Dodgy Wall Street Deals Points to Market Trouble Ahead
My take is that financial crises only happen on years that contain 8, 9, 0, but you should be more careful if the year ends in those numbers.

Always get anmoyed to see the crappy stock background image being so distracting, while using most of the screen real estate.

Kinda like how you wondered what the government does with tax money, Im just wondering how each kickstarter dollar is allocated.
