Good lord. The god nitpick.

I’d love to see the numbers on this. I suspect that the middle class families buying a rental to Airbnb are largely inconsequential to the housing crisis compared to the corporations buying thousands of homes to cash in on rent for the rest of eternity.

Towing cars at all without a very crucial reason should be illegal in general.

Taking someone’s transportation that they assume they have access to, without their knowledge, and without them being able to find out until the very second they need that transportation is dangerous. Emergencies happen.

If you’re taking someone’s car you better have a damn good reason. And “you accidentally parked in the wrong parking spot doesn’t clear that hurdle. That’s what tickets are for. “Really wanting to see the recordings from your car camera” doesn’t clear that hurdle either.

Not to nitpick your nitpick, but “more” has more than one definition.

Tumblr is one website. Not 500,000. Even though 500,000 people have a blog there, it is still tumblr.com. Even if you do set up a subdomain such as my-blog.tumblr.com it still just redirects to tumblr.com/my-blog. Counting tumblr as 500,000 websites is like counting everyone’s Facebook profile as its own website.

Do you have to have seen a human die to know that a human could die? Surely Cain had seen plenty of animals die. I think you might not be giving Cain enough credit (or maybe too much credit) by assuming he couldn’t have put 2 and 2 together

> However very few individuals are more important than thousands of octopuses

What do you mean by this? Are you stating this as an opinion? Or something people generally agree upon? Or something else?

I think most people, if forced to choose, would save 1 human at the expense of thousands of octopuses. Not saying this is right or wrong. Just wondering what metric you’re using to gauge importance.

Do you have a source for this “almost certainty”? Because Musk says they are offering it for free because they can no longer accept payments (due to the bank freeze) and they don’t want to cut off peoples internet in remote areas.

Are you just assuming the worst?

Perhaps you have said this elsewhere, but why shut the site down?

Damn. If there was ever any doubt about why you should get off chrome, this seems to put an end to that.

Touch grass buddy. In their first sentence they openly admit this isn’t their area of expertise. Hence them asking a question to people who know more than them. “Don’t behave this way to your co-workers” is much better advice for your comment than for GP’s.

Pretending that someone can’t use your software because they don’t want to create a login through your providers is idiotic.

Open to everyone, but requires a computer. Has the definition of everyone changed?

No. Not at all. SpaceX is much closer to “agile” than Boeing or NASA, and I don’t think their success is a strike against agile.

GP just seems to have beef with agile and seems to be trying to loop any random failure, whether or not agile was involved, into the discussion.

Here is a past HN thread discussing exactly this. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23856590

Firefox has supported this since 125. So if you are on ESR 128 it should work fine
