Uber already is illegal in most places it operates, so... yes?

As a milk lover, I find this hard to believe

I've never seen a gallon go for above 2.99(if that) at safeway and never seen one below 3.99(if you're lucky) at whole foods

Gotta love hn where human rights concerns get downvoted, top voted comment? look how rich this guy is

Mining rigs

What makes you think laws aren't incentives? "Merely barriers to work around" kind of misses why laws exist in the first place. Making something illegal is what society should do if we collectively agree that behavior is to the detriment of society without any positive gain. What do we gain by allowing drug manufacturers to put false expiration dates on their products?

Or we could just make it illegal. Then again, with today's political climate it wouldn't surprise me if someone was unironically opposed to regulating drug manufacturers.

The problem is that most people (ie voters) have not seen things get better. Wages are not keeping up with cost of living. Things are stabilized for the upper echelons of America, but the lower income/wealth individuals (a majority of Americans) are getting left behind. By both parties. So you're always going to have a huge portion during each election that just wants a "change" in the hope it will finally make things better for them. Spoiler alert, it won't.

Isn't ES6 `.then(()=>{})` ?

Seriously? They discover rare NASA documents from the 60s and your immediate thought is "how much was it worth"?

It still is!

> Launching a ship toward America was irrational.

uhh.. no it wasn't?

That's fair, I guess you just don't see this that often. Granted, it could be more public because of Uber's situation. I've just never heard of something like that.

You act like every CEO takes a leave of absence when they experience a personal tragedy. If that were the case I wouldn't doubt it.

How is it off topic to question these sorts of "well obviously it's so" sort of comments?

I'm pretty sure Safari's features are intentionally crippled to keep their app ecosystem safe. See: web notifications.

Economic inequality, duh

> On the team we all agree that we want to keep building premium features in order to make the platform sustainable.

Is there any concern that paywalling features will reduce the number of users on the site?

Love Nautilus, it's a shame they aren't doing well. Wonder what their subscriber count is.

Good enough reason to close my account, thanks for the heads up. Fuck PayPal.

Maybe ad revenue isn't the correct way to fund a newspaper these days. Disruption!

Why not?

What harm is caused by using non-gendered language in commit messages? Time-wasting? Really?

If it doesn't matter to you, fine. But if it matters to other people, why complain about it? Do you really think Chromium is suffering as a project because the developers are wasting too much time on ensuring the codebase is inclusive?

10,000 years and still waiting

> It's not meant to be user-editable

I think that's kind of a stretch since regedit has been a part of windows as long as I can remember.

> In my opinion, he didn't owe the world anything

Maybe you're familiar with the social contract? The guy has made billions in the business world, he doesn't deserve to be lauded for donating a small fraction of the wealth he'll never need to survive.

It's the equivalent of a grocery store clerk donating $10 to the salvation army. I don't see news articles written about them. Hell, the poor consistently donate a greater portion of their wealth than the rich.

They have other animals that can take the place of mice if there's an adverse reaction, like pigs and monkeys.

Reasonable people can read between the lines.

Do you have a source for this comment?

What if some of the taxpayers feel it's warranted? Personally I have no problem with them spending time on these types of projects.
