If only there was a way that other people could benefit from your having learned it

It's a google search away! apologies for not revealing the punchline. I thought it was interesting, since Gibraltar and Venice aren't far from each other on a worldwide scale.

....Sewage transport ironically was a large use case. Natural tides come in, fill the lagoon, flush it out.

The network of bridges and canals were also key infrastructure for transport of goods and people.

Then I think you're missing the point. Any opaque head covering would not be enough to bring the drone in to capturing or sensor attacking distance. The point is to get the drone to close distance not to stop tracking.

Did we find the smoker?

The correct question is “have you found a smoker who smokes on a balcony”.

No, somebody famous had to influence you for it to exist. The real progenitors are always other people.

This is neat but I could have done without the poor diction, AI voice, and inaccessible subtitles.

I'm sure that's their state license plate motto regardless of your moral objection

In Wooley v. Maynard SCOTUS held that NH could not require it's citizens to use a license plate displaying the state motto.

It's still their license plate motto and it's still not dependent on your moral objection

Do you see anyone claiming the opposite? The point is that they will not write the motto on your license plate if you object.

I get that HN attracts a certain amount of pedantry, but I can't figure out what exactly you're even trying to be pedantic about. There's not single comment here that could be reasonably interpreted as suggesting that "live free or die" isn't their motto

His pedantic point is that due to the way the original question was written, the answer is “yes” regardless if you object or not.

The question was “isn’t that the state with license plates that say ‘live free or die’?” And even if you get a license plate that doesn’t say it, NH is still the state with those plates

Yeah, because you as the shareholder are worth more to the company and society than the people at the company.

Considering he paid to be a shareholder, and the company is paying the employees to be there, that makes sense.

The goal of most companies is to maximize returns to shareholders, not society or employees. If it wasn't that I wouldn't have invested.

It's part of the social contract. Corps and limited liability don't have to exist - they aren't some natural thing, they are something we made up because its useful to society.

Once it stops being useful we can axe them.

Yeah, it's hardly worth reading anymore
