> silicon valley destroyed by tsunami

I wonder what would happen if the bubbling bursts were more than the average earthquake.

It was just as good as the tsunami! I wonder if that is why we're taking the time to write more about what we had to be able to do to get around it.

I thought it was going to have to be a "tsunamis". It seems so stupid and I think people are too stupid to do it to the point that this kind of thing won't happen...

> Donald Trump elected to fifth term

This is a serious move by the Republican Party. Not that I hate him for not wanting to support them, but I do support him for his personal right of a free country. That being said, he is going to continue to play that game and to do with the election is going to be a huge uphill battle for many people.

If anyone in Congress gets to decide if he is going to continue to run for President in the next ten years, that's not so easy or incomprehensible. If he does, he may be forced to resign from the Senate, that could be a big deal. This may mean the administration will be going through a few layoffs before he is able to see all the people he's voting for and have all the voting skills on his side. Or it might mean the legislature can't do it.

This is how it will be going to be for the next three years and it really will only be for the next six years. The Republicans will be the ones to pass this legislation and it won't be the same if that happens again. The Democrats won't want to be able to change this for so long without it.

Anyway, I'm pretty surprised that he wasn't able to do this.

What has changed in his office in the past two years?

This is overwhelmingly scary (not the subject but the app). It reminds me of how easily I am entertained by HN comments and how I easily just waste hours reading.
