Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

"The sad thing is that if the officer had not made a few key missteps … he might have covered his bases well enough to avoid consequences." Yeah, so sad.

Okay, this is HN so not assuming malice might be the wrong idea, but I legit thought is sounds like "the sad thing is that he almost got away, and it would be better if he had no chance in the first place", not "the sad thing is that he got away".

Agreed, I read this as saying that the cop would otherwise have got away with it & that this was a /bad/ thing.

Also, the experimenting on babies thing is hilarious.
