I'm left-winged with absolutely no love for Parler and believe a lot of people have blood on their hands for the violence incited last week. The security researchers were wrong to make this information publicly available but the fact t

Deleted mine way back in 2010. I'd been on it since high school in 2005 and treated it like the new version of MSN Messenger (oh 2002...). After a while it just got stale and it felt like I was pouring way too much of my personal data

I'm a junior C# developer who started last year. When I was in school/interning I focused a lot on firmware, networking, operating systems and web development (eclectic, I know). Also primarily worked with Linux. This year I learn

I wouldn't think there's just one pendulum that governs how people view an issue either but there's certainly a continuum for how emotional people will get over certain issues. Obviously if you have no emotion over an issue y

Apologies, I meant 'virtue signalling.' Disparaging others with the intention of trying to show your own value and grandstanding with no intention of actually refuting someone else's argument, isn't debate either. Exampl
