This is wrong. The article states Asian males earn 117% as much, which is just 17% more. This is one of the things that turns me off Hacker News, an overly strong bias in defense of white men.

Are there any similar articles that are more simply written? I'd like to pass this kind of information on to the people in my life that aren't technically minded. At the moment when I try, I just sound like a conspiracy nut.

Goodness! This seems like an amazing opportunity - I have charges that will never go away under New Zealand's Clean Slate Act for buying from Silk Road when I was 17 years of age. This is truly progressive.

It's worse when you have a black mark on your record for actually hustling.

An insinuation of this kind of tech is that if you aren't carrying a phone, you aren't safe.

I'm seeing in the comments that the level of trust in companies is higher than the trust in your government.

Both very sad things.

Error 503 Backend is unhealthy

Funniest one I've seen in a while.

I didn't understand this, but it is probably because I am a machine.

I like to make a markdown as well as a site. It's usually different each time, which keeps things interesting. This isn't a problem for me as the number of sites I make is limited by the number of domains I have.

Github for my contracts.

My music collection sits on a server hooked up to my stereo. I had the disks in RAID-Z1, but when one of the disks pulled a Seagate I accidentally made the disks striped vedvs. To back this up, I boot up a rackmount server with larger disks in RAID-Z1 and use rsync.

This is the only data that I really care about preserving. I found this out through changing my operating system a lot and having my laptop stolen.

With the gimmick of slipping the newline in aside, you can really go nuts on the ampersand.
