News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

It's okay to speak ideas whatever it is. It's also okay to dislike other ideas.

I do the same.

What is not okay is to promote violence against anybody you think their ideas are harmful. Who decides if an idea is harmful? I think liberalism is harmful. Through abortions, millions are dying every year.

No one should have the authority to say these motherf-kers are free to live, lets celebrate their defects and these other motherf-kers should be punched on the face.

This liberalism-atheism is a religion. They do witch hunting, they purge their heretics, they don't allow opposition.

However, Wolfeinstein 3D helped me to become who I am, even though it's purpose was the opposite :) Even a 8 years old feels if a game was designed to deform his thinking.

I was banned from Facebook for 2 weeks just for posting my opinion in a closed group. Imagine what would that mean in real life. NO!

It must be 'true' if it should be defended by prison sentences.

It's witch hunting and disbars healthy debate.

I'm not saying He was right, but neither accepting the propaganda of the winners as a dogma and go for witch-hunting for it.

Re:Yad Vashem's database of Holocaust victims' names on Tuesday April 25, 2017 @04:41AM (#14191768)
It's curious that people can be sentenced just by asking questions, isn't it? My other comment here was also deleted. Uh.

Re:Ask HN: Developers with kids, how do you skill up? on Wednesday March 08, 2017 @06:50AM (#13819637)
I have now 3 kids (1, 2, 6 years old). When the 3rd was born I realised I have to get up at 6 to be able to go to the gym as my wife can't walk the dog in the morning any more with 2 kids wrapped around her (She's a baby wearer). So I get up at 6 every day.

Things change and it's very grateful just looking at them playing.

I do have fun time programming on hobby projects, but less. I still have time for paragliding, but not as much as I would. I made a rocking pram using Japanese woodcarving tools. That's a new hobby :) I do learn new things at work as I advance in my career, it's very important to keep up, I don't have any choice right now.

But there was immigration without control for so long, with it's negative (and many positive) drawbacks. There should be a limit on that. Also, in big cities there are irreversible cultural changes which I consider harmful. Huge mosques, no-go zones, etc. I don't want my children to grow up in something like that.

Therefore, my presence is only temporary.

Same here. We just bought a house last year, these headlines are making my heart skip a beat :) Will I be kicked out but still need to pay the mortgage? Nonesense these false news portals these days are.

However, I believe putting a control on immigration is the right thing to do.

Re:Why Europe Is Warning of Pax Americana's End on Monday February 13, 2017 @08:55AM (#13635162)
I almost fell off my chair. First of all, every operation the US army did so far was the cause of destabilisation. While the military industry is a huge business alone, it's causing harm everywhere else. The US traded stabile far east for oil (Afghanistan), now they are creating conflict to find a cause to grow the military economy.
Re:Submarine cable map on Friday February 10, 2017 @08:05AM (#13615084)
It's because of rocks and mountains. It's easier to lay down cables at the bottom of the sea
It's because it's a crime to even carry a butterknife in your backpack.
Completely agree. I lived in Hungary, where the crime rate is relatively low compared to the whole Europe. But you can't actually go to an open market without securing your pockets. Now I live in Scotland, which amongst the highest crime rate countries in Europe, but it feels much safer to walk through Glasgow than to walk through Budapest.

This is because every single small pickpocket is reported and usually caught. Not to mention crime definitions like "breach of peace", with cases like "shouting in public" or "pointed his finger on walker". Police would laugh on a reports about these in Hungary.

I didn't like Amsterdam (or what I have seen of it) though, same insecure feeling.

Re:An Email Thread Between a Developer and Gigster on Wednesday February 01, 2017 @10:57AM (#13541656)
Why advertising something like I have been working on this project for the last 5 years would benefit me in any way?

They could guess that I didn't create it in the last two weeks, but then good luck proving it in court.

I have much better relationship with my employer now, If I hadn't I would quit tomorrow.

Re:An Email Thread Between a Developer and Gigster on Wednesday February 01, 2017 @10:37AM (#13541482)
I have it too. It would have been impossible to change, I was given a template contract and I do have side projects outside of my work. On the day I leave the job because my side project is making enough money, I would not be very nervous about it. How would they know?

I also have something like "should not work in similar area within The UK". Again, how would they know? This conflicts with data protection act, therefore invalid.

Re:How to Deal with Populism on Wednesday January 25, 2017 @12:08PM (#13483256)
Exactly the same thinking as mine. And what the liberals are doing? Whining more racism and continuing the same agenda.
Not in the EU (or at least not in The UK where I currently live).
Finally I get to know why my mortgage was declined :)
Re:Ask HN: How do I stop myself being toxic? on Wednesday June 29, 2016 @07:58AM (#12001030)
Probably just leave your current job. The problem might be with them, not with you.
So do not register your company in the USA, otherwise you have to deal with patent trolls.
I would mention lawyers and lawsuits a lot more during the visit in this hospital and definitely sue them with a 500 pages long claim.

It's fighting law with law. If they were draw a sword, I would draw mine too.

Re:North Korea makes more sense when you know its roots on Thursday January 07, 2016 @09:47AM (#10858151)
A read Mein Kampf in two different language, also I'm studying the works of Julius Evola. I have never read principles there like the death of head of the state would mean the death of the nation. There's lots of talk about hierarchy and of course, absolute power (but it means absolute responsibility too).

North Korea is rather an extremist bolshevik state, rather than fascist and also a very dangerous one, but making a parallel with Japan is not so smart. It's very far away from Yukio Mishima and so.

Re:Show HN: The new Windria – 2-5km precision wind forecasts on Wednesday December 16, 2015 @11:22AM (#10745240)
Yes, would be useful for paragliding.
Re:Show HN: The new Windria – 2-5km precision wind forecasts on Wednesday December 16, 2015 @10:56AM (#10745053)
Interesting. WRF is the model that RASP uses - so surface winds should be similar. It would be nice to have higher level winds there, too, although since that's a sailing site this is probably not a priority for the people behind the site.
Not a surprising act after the rest of the population pays "TV license" for decades to watch BBC lying.
When the Hungarian revolution of 1956 against communism was knocked down, I didn't hear the refugees smashed truck windows, left tons of rubbish after themselves in foreign countries, neither attacked each other or raped women.

Sorry for the exception, I really hate when people starve or cold. I know there are good people there, kids and women as well, but their culture is just not fit in to Europe.

Re:European Parliament votes against net neutrality amendments on Wednesday October 28, 2015 @06:53AM (#10463690)
I'm not sure it's BT or somebody else. Traceroute says there are 20 devices my connection is going through. Somebody working for ISPs or Bitbucket could confirm why some sites are fast, others are slower after a minute, I can only guess.
We are experiencing speed problems to many servers. Our broadband is BT Fibre. While accessing some sites is very fast, sometimes others are slow.

For example downloading from Bitbucket from the UK is peaking on 600kB/s, then after a minute, it's dropping to 60kB/s, then stays there for the following 15 minutes.

The same content downloaded from one of our servers in a UK data centre stays on 600kB/s.

I think this is a clear evidence that the service provider is cutting the bandwidth after a minute, which is not what we paid for.

Re:Agile Failure Patterns in Organizations on Tuesday October 20, 2015 @09:44AM (#10419035)
Yes, one of the sites I have to use an user css.

Otherwise painfully high number of failure points are true in the place I'm working, so a good article to show the management on the next scrum meeting (some point in the next two months) :)
