"Market forces" is just another way of saying "individual choices". Restricting individual choices has certainly been practised across a number of political and economic systems but there is always a question - who decides what to restrict?

Apologies for correcting but it's "a number of people", not "an amount". "People" are countable.

The article's title is "Senseless". HN's title, I believe, is bound to distort one's impression of helmets' usefulness.

Re:Wayback Machine points to pro-Russia rebels in downing of MH17

I was following the news from the conflict in Ukraine and when the plane got downed, pro-Russia rebels were celebrating all over the internet (thinking that they'd downed a Ukrainian supply plane). When it became obvious the plane was civilian, the celebratory posts and videos started to disappear with blazing speeds.

I am your guy hitting his head after a cycling accident and being fine afterwards. Would it surprise you that, in spite of being fine, it is right AFTER this accident that I decided to start wearing a helmet? Judging by your argument, you would call me illogical.

"anybody talking against mass immigration...will easily be classified as 'hate speaker' too" - please cite a single law of any European country classifying those as hate speech. Up until then I'll say you are spouting utter rubbish.

It's only acceptable to use "she" if the character in question is positive. Using "she" or stock photos depicting females to refer to a negative character is sexist.

From a developer's perspective - perhaps. But look at it from a business perspective (cost, risk management), and you'll often see it differently.
