What was that 1 second of bad content? Or do I have to listen to 4 hours of sweaty ranting and hope I don't miss it?

Police Chief Medaria Arradondo said more than 100 officers have left the force — more than double the number in a typical year — including retirements and officers who have filed disability claims, some citing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder linked to the protests over Floyd’s death.

That's just beautiful. Having your hands tied while criminals go wild is maddening to me, I bet it really was traumatic for cops.

Any criticism of Apple and people come out of the woodwork defending them. Like above and beyond giving them the benefit of the doubt. Total subservience. As you might guess I use Android personally for various reasons, but don't think I can't rant and rave about their bullshit too.

Also there was that post about Trump and H1Bs the other day. I was really shocked at the posts from people that felt entitled to be in the United States and "take" American jobs. I want to believe it was just salty Indians but I'm sure there were plenty of Americans who want open borders too. Look at all of the posts piping in with the usual talking points about how only the US has such a racist and xenophobic immigration system. Right? Then again with the topic and headline I'm sure it attracted lots of people ready to give their political opinion. There is definitely a lot of astroturfing going on. But I never thought of HN has a smaller forum as it seems very influential in the tech community.
