Funny thing is that what counts as "politics" gets moved around a lot. Evolution was political once and, if things go as they are going, it will be again. Approximately as retro as debating whether diversity is a good thing in tec

This is the sort of a smug self-satisfied hot take that makes many non-SWEs recoil from this community. Outside of tech, there are plenty of thoughtful communities of practice, tended by community leaders no less wise and dedicated than dan

Why is this flagged? Is the climate no longer a science story?

"Just" is doing a lot of work in that problem restatement. It's not a word typically found in front of the phrase "cultural decision", although I commend the baldness of your ideological commitments.

That is how the guidelines read. If practice varies from theory, one must ask who, and what, is being practiced.

Why is this flagged? As a former foreign TN-1 visa holder, this sort of thing is (a) topically relevant to me, _qua_ software engineer, and (b) technically interesting. What is the valence of deciding that 'curiosity' (the HN gold

This "Marxists can't even run a corner shop" junket is hilarious in a context where the capitalist-democratic hegemon has just finished eviscerating itself and Chinese socialism, however pragmatic, is the winner by default. T

This claim seems true largely because we cherry pick examples and because this is how we feel the world ought to work. Announcing this belief is just a way of signalling prosocial stance, a nostalgic mid-10s catechism to us all just getting

Well, it means no changes _intended as_ changes [pertaining to the topic at hand]; it implies there may be incidental alterations or differences, eg this issue might be addressed in a blanket legal revamp (whatever that's called) but,

Somewhat. Our provinces have fewer rights, powers and responsibilities than US states. The experience is more homogenous. It's only a nightmare if you hate all taxes and labour rights. So, you know, YC

How is this flagged? Deepfakes aren't a tech story now? HN reveals itself again as the manicured lawn of the fascist tranche of our industry
