Hacker news has been overtaken by evil insect-like people that hate freedom, and goodness itself.

These large tech companies hate people who tell the truth and expose their evil intentions. Alex Jones got kicked for telling the truth. Richie Allen got blacklisted to speaking truth.

Alex Jones got banned for telling the truth. Crazy people are allowed everywhere, because their arguments can easily be refuted. Jones was shut down because he is speaking uncomfortable truths that cannot be easily waived away.

Those Mirvish+Gehry tower plans look hideous. How did such a monstrosity get approved? What an absolute embarrassment for Toronto, lol.
Re:Martin Shkreli has been sentenced to seven years in prison

He really screwed himself over while he was on bail. He probably could have gotten off with what his attorneys wanted (around a year) if he just shut up until after the sentencing was over. But he kept trolling on livestream and twitter and acting like it was a given that he would get off easy. Obviously he was joking around with the Clinton "threat" but he should not have given prosecutors anything to use against him. I like the guy overall, his educational streams were pretty good, but trolling very powerful people while you are facing potential 20 years in prison is insane.

Can someone explain specifically what lies he told his investors to defraud them?

If you choose to have children then your career is raising children. You have to choose to prioritize one or the other, the idea that you can take large amounts of time off and still be at the same level as people who kept working is insane. There isn't any injustice going on here. Juggling an intense career path with raising children is a bad idea. Sending children to day care for large amounts of their youth has been shown to be highly detrimental to their development.

Any person or entity that manages to avoid paying taxes ends up doing a good deed. All tax money is wasted on making society worse, and contributes to growth of cancerous institutions that ultimately ONLY harm society.
Re:TempleOS creator Terry Davis is homeless and living in a van
on Wednesday January 10, 2018 @02:17PM (#16117973)
Does anyone have info about his current status? He has not updated his site since Dec 15.
As far as the van thing goes, he wasn't really homeless. He went to his parents house frequently and he could live there but chooses to live mostly in his van because he likes it.
