Small correction with regards to AN-124's name, Ruslan doesn't stand for "condor", condor is its NATO reporting name, Ruslan is just a popular Russian name.

I wish more experts would give advice about careers/undertakings with this kind of honesty and a clear list of requirements to be successful. With programming they built this whole myth that "coding is easy, bro, trust me, you don

I think the misunderstanding comes from me using the term "fit" without actually specifying the precise meaning. I meant it more as having better general health in the colloquial sense(e.g. not having life-threatening congenital d

Can you explain what is incoherent in thinking that in times where you can't survive unless you're mostly physically fit enough to do so without medical intervention? I understand that most physically fit will be an outlier, but m

I know this opinion is probably going to be wildly unpopular on an engineering-centred newsfeed, but most of our problems could be solved by going back to a more primitive lifestyle or at least trying to emulate it. So far ever since we tri

Ideally, they should be packaged in an accessible format. Sort of like how in the Linux world Ubuntu is doing pretty well with making Linux accessible even to people who are not technology-inclined. The problem in "my perfect world&quo

Even if it happens within a platform it's still a very concerning problem. If a company decided to put cameras in people's homes to improve "customer service" that business would be out of business the next day. And yet

You're right. And I agree with you on the point that some features that even someone who doesn't like corporations uses and loves were made possible by said corporations. What I'm worried about is corporations becoming so pow

Alright, let's say that I have a general mistrust of corporations just because from some modest reading of history I know that if someone has power they'll abuse it for their own interest. So my opinions about Google and others ar

But you need to consider the amount of data Google is amassing from people using solely their services. And then sells that data to advertisers. If this trend continues eventually they'd be able to know more about you than even the clo

Even if we assume that allowing Google to exist as a monopoly does bring better services, that's a small price to pay for not having to be subjugated by a conglomerate. Countries can already barely withstand pressure from big companies
