On the other hand, I remember that there were lot of Czech companies that were privatized into Czech hands and most of them do not exist anymore, because they went bankrupt a long time ago.

At the time (during the 90s), most of those companies that had foreign investors/management grew and survived and those that didn't were often tunneled-out by a corrupt management and were closed down. There were definitely some pretty big cases in 90s. Also there was a big public discussion about this at the time, and many politicians were against the foreign investments in general.

So I simply don't think that it's so clear-cut issue and that it's not like most of Czech people are completely unaware of the problem.
I upvoted you. Please do not downvote, if you have never been with someone who is seeking specialised help with anxiety issues. You simply don't realise the enormity of the problem.

I was with someone who had very very high anxiety issues. She also had ADHD and I'm sure some other disorders. She was on lexipro, lorazepam, clonazepam, diazepam, zoloft and other medications.

Thankfully I was with this person for just 1 year.

I was able to get out, but at such cost to my own mental health. Even after 6 years, I still don't have my own pieces together. It's like they say, once something has broken. You just can't put it back together the way it was.

> My best advice is to get out NOW

Best advice ever. You have my admiration if you are able to work it out and have an understanding partner. Unfortunately, I did not have an understanding partner. Even though, I moved heaven and earth to be there for her in every way, it just was not enough.

Although I should be saying, I hope she finds happiness. Except, I really feel bad for the guy she is with now. As her baggage is enormous. Instead, I hope she is getting the professional help she needs!
They wanted to fire someone that wasn't even their employee.

Since that I've recommending against them.
/r/CrappyDesign went through this same drama when the big dust up around /r/IAmA happened due to one of the female employees at reddit getting fired. The moderator there felt like the community was all about him, and he therefore had the right to close it down.

And yet as soon as he shut it down, someone opened a request with the admins to take it over, it was granted, and the community now is stronger then ever. If mods want to leave reddit then so be it, but they need to stop any delusions that they are the keystones holding their communities together.
It's an open source project, feel free to patch!
Ugh. I had to check the url twice to make sure this wasn't a story from the Onion.
There have been exactly ZERO r/The_Donald posts on the frontpage, ever. It is not and never was a default subreddit.

You are talking about r/all, which almost no one browses according to the Reddit admins themselves. And as of a few months ago, at most 3-4 posts from any one subreddit are on each page of r/all.

Why exactly should they be banned? I can't help but suspect that the real reason is that you want to silence their politics.
Hey bradfitz, thanks for coming over to HN. I created an alt account just to appeal to you: Please do not delete r/golang. I happen to like the subreddit and the community of people on there. It's great place for me to find news & learn more about the language, and it would be very hard for me (who doesn't happen to be in a physical environment that fosters the discussion of the language) to find a similar community online.

If you happen to dislike reddit, please feel free to step down as moderator and move on. Please do not use this opportunity to grandstand and destroy the community for the rest of us, who do not happen to care about the drama surrounding the CEO (personally, I think it was childish of him, but I would not go to the extent of disrupting the community for others).

Thanks for listening.

You have every right to take this position, and if you feel strongly have no obligation to stay. What I cannot understand is the next step of proposing to close the entire subreddit. Don't want to moderate it anymore? Then don't. A subreddit is made up of it's users, not just the moderators.

I think it's hard to say what exactly is the specific sin of high-frequency trading, and that it appears as an indistinguishable part of the current market.

Thus critizing high frequency trading appears of critique in general of parties who merely leverage the existing information disparity in the market to the fullest.

The main benefit of the market is that it removes transaction costs. Money has lower transaction costs than barter, bank transfers have lower transaction costs than coffins of money, etc.

Inducing some mechanism that would guarantee full information parity between all agents in the market sound to me like it would eat up lot of the benefits of the lowered transaction costs. Although, I'm not an economist and can be persuaded with better information.

I think even saying the comments were critical gives them too much credit. He edited comments that were harassment to, childishly, redirect them to other people. But this is small potatoes really.

Reddit has multiple faces; if you're in your technology subreddit you exist in another world from all the literally crazy drama and harassment that goes on. Running reddit is not likely to be a pleasant experience anymore.

If spez wants to fix this, he needs to set up a trusted third party backup of comments as they evolve in time, to guarantee that comments remain unedited by admins. It needs to be done in a secure way that prevents tampering.

This service could be extended by the community to other social feeds and blogs - just archive them to have traces of their change in time.
It's irrelevant really in terms of the petition, as the site is a mechanism for British citizens to bring their concerns to the attention of parliament. I assume you would have to go down a different avenue to lodge your objections.

But it's more than that. If it's illegal to spy, that means you can't disseminate the fruits of that spying far and wide. You need to resort to parallel construction and carefully safeguarding your sources.

This allows a massive expansion in the scope of capture and use of that information to more agencies in a "legitimate" manner. At least when it was illegal they had to contain the "conspiracy" lest it get out.
Did Reddit modify your content? Was the CEO's action in anyway suggestive that he would pose an actual risk to the Go community? Because I'm seeing a theoretical and unlikely risk as opposed to one that's something about which to worry.

I think this is an overreaction. If Google were found to be manipulating search results, would that be cause to leave Google? If Google were collecting information in a means inconsistent with user privacy agreements would that be cause to leave? How about Google collecting wifi data in violation of several countries' laws? (To be fair, the wifi issue is a fact the others are just hypotheticals.)

My point is if we are becoming self righteous about the CEO of Reddit doing something stupid, must we also maintain similar outrage when Google does something illegal or unethical as well?

We might run out of internet if we disengaged every time a company did something stupid.

The question that really should be asked: is this an ongoing pattern of behavior that harms users or is this just a knee-jerk bout of self-righteousness?
Congrats. I did it around 6 months ago. Much happier now :)

Building an app once for each platform is not economically viable for a lot of teams, 'serious' or otherwise.
Because the power is there and it's tempting to use. Restarting Buzz may not have economic sense for Google, but abusing admin-edit powers has obvious value for the abusers and may be hard to catch if the abuser is not an idiot. "Opportunity makes a thief", and all.
I thought it was a joke but I realize they are seriously considering doing this.

Overreaction much?

People want to talk about Go, regardless of how the Go team feels about reddit's ethics. I'm not sure what doing this will serve except lead to the creation of another Go subreddit that's no longer moderated by the Go team.

> Many of these comments are about the colour wheel, when in fact the real discussion should be about whether or not it was correct to change the colour wheel to satisfy his wife.

He didn't make the change to satisfy his wife. He felt that his wife's underlying point: the wheel didn't work the way she expected, was valid, and made an adjustment.
Gets better when she has an issue but does not admit it, and when he has an issue, he is just "inventing" it, because you know, men are privileged and can't have problems?

The part of the Net Neutrality debate that is so often disregarded (and probably the reason conservatives oppose it vehemently) is that it gives FCC (an unelected body of government, part of the executive branch) power to legislate.

Not passing judgement or touching the merit of the whole subject but it is a very consistent position of the right in the United States to oppose regulation passed down by unelected officials of the executive branch instead of legislation created and approved by the legislative body through their elected representatives.

It is a similar phenomenon to the one occurring in Europe with its maximum exponent being the Brexit process, also motivated in a lot of ways by the perceived interference in the day to day life of the British by regulations passed down by unelected officials of the European Union instead of legislation created and approved by the local legislative bodies through their elected representatives.

In America, opposing FCC mandating net neutrality through regulation is akin to other similar rejections of "legislation by the executive":

- DEA or Department of Health legislating controlled substances

- FAA legislating personal drones

- FCC legislating TV language and obscenity

- ATF legislating gun ownership, possession and storage

- Treasury Secretary legislating penalties for failure to enroll in government approved healthcare (Obamacare "Tax Penalty")

It is all part of the same phenomenon, people pushing back against what they perceive as a federal overreach in areas that deny people proper representation in contesting the regulations imposed.

Trump got elected on that exact platform by the detractors of such overreach and it is only natural that he is going to follow the desire of his electoral constituency.

They also get a monthly fee from the seller, even if the seller sells zero products.
In most contexts, an entertainment event being "presented by X" just means that X funded the event in exchange for having their name associated with it. E.g., "Thursday Night Football, Presented by Bud Light" -- Bud Light has nothing to do with the content or transmission of the event, it just paid the most money for advertising.

However: you're totally right that they may do some cool tie-in with the phone itself in this case.
The only people that this is good news for are the VPN providers. Do we really trust "the state" with this information. History should tell us that once can never be sure of what use data can be put to by future regimes.

I had to deal with something similar, and I think I would add a few practical advices (outside of my other advice):

- if psychotherapy does now work in first 3 months, than problem is somewhere else

- check sugar levels, diabetes.. it is often misdiagnosed with psychiatric problems

- if she has paralyzing fear, you should talk to good psychiatrist and get medication. Be careful what motivations he/she has, he might try to sell you expensive doses for long term.

- we had good experience with psychiatrist outside US. Most consulting was over skype

- MRI, blood test... usual general tests. Anxiety can be result of infection, head concussion...

- Phenibut is quick & cheap solution to anxiety and sleep problems. No side effects, but you develop resistance fast, so it can be used only once a week. It takes edge-off before proper solution is found.
You don't need to rebuild reddit. Just add offsite, trusted backups of comments. If you want to be fancy, allow redditors to enable monitoring of their comments with a bot command, and get notifications in their inbox.
Appeals Court Concludes That IPOs Are Legal
I don't think Trump cares much about net neutrality in particular, but it wouldn't surprise me if he abolished or severely cut back the FCC.

The big deal to me is mostly the last-mile infrastructure, which is more of a local/state issue anyways. If the telecom companies mostly handled the backbone, losing the government enforcement doesn't even seem that bad.

Regardless of what happens at the federal level, California and New York are completely controlled by Democrats, so HN commenters should find it relatively easy to push through state net neutrality laws. And bigger companies like Netflix can probably bribe the smaller states by promising to set up a call center in Montana or something in exchange for net neutrality laws in that state.

Frankly, this current system where an unelected official gets to pick and choose the scope of his agency is a bit silly. I wouldn't mind if the whole agency is cut out, if its scope changes so wildly depending on who's President.

Vehemently disagree. You can extend the same argument to the NSA conducting effectively unrestricted surveillance on citizens. Those of us who are technically minded knew it was going on years before Snowden showed up. That still doesn't make the action morally correct, nor justifiable in any way.

Then someone would have complained that this site needed JavaScript to handle those click event.

Or, would have complained that it was stupid to actually use an anchor tag to link to god forbid another complete page load.

Or, if they used a javascript framework to make deep links someone would have complained that they used a javascript framework for a static page, or even maybe they used the wrong JavaScript framework.

> Spez's actions harm himself more than users of the site.

I'm not sure. If everyone would say "alright, it was incorrect but we don't want any internet drama", then how exactly would it hurt him? Closing a subreddit seems to me like exactly the kind of thing that could communicate a "not OK".

I think it's especially necessary as the edits had been done in a trump support group subreddit. Even though I don't agree with them at all, I think setting a precident that manipulating discussions are ok if I don't like the political content would be even worse.
