Not everyone likes an egotistical demagogue, and he only came out as a right-winger as a distraction trying to dodge accountability. The left haven't moved anywhere, the world did, and the right was left behind, only to reinvent themse

The article was clear about that, the hopelessly addicted politicians, reporters and celebrities will stay, not question about that. The argument here is that heavy moderation will stay too, for one because that's how you make money, a

I'm seriously suggesting that denying someone's place in society is denying their existence, yes. Conservative government officials, media commentators and militias are regularly attacking transgender people with real-life consequ

They can do whatever they want, that's a given. The advertisers can do too. Welcome to hell, Elon. You fucked up real good, kiddo. https://www.theverge.com/2022/10/28/23428132/elon-musk-twitt...

A closest analogy would be the Babylon Bee making a joke about how you are not bipolar, it's all just in your head, or a satire about researchers trying to cure bipolar disorder instead of cancer, a real disease, and those would be fin

Not using a vanity name of a celebrity is not exactly the same as deadnaming. If Ye would have chosen John as his first name I could see it being similar, he obviously had a reason to change it, maybe he hates Kanye, but he choose Ye, becau

They don't think so. Some claims that they were born with the wrong body, so their deadname was a mistake. This is why they call it deadname. Even if you are not transgender, just imagine changing your name, telling everyone about it,

Women lost nothing because someone who might have been born in the wrong body and accomplished a lot receives an award for their accomplishment. It's not a zero sum game. Women wouldn't be better off by not letting these people li

They did it because of her accomplishments, not for being a transgender woman. There is an important difference. I understand the satire on some level, she was a man, she only transitioned later in her life, so of course there is always a q

They selected Rachel Levine as their pick for "Man of the Year", although she is a transgender woman. Babylon Bee says that she is a man, and the truth cannot be hate speech. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rach

This is a really childish, uncultured view. Surely even you want to be more than just an animal grazing on the field and leave a legacy behind you can be proud of. You only have this one chance to make a mark on the Universe, however small.

You are pretty much saying that all the world is in it, all the governments, all the independent institutions, universities, researchers, working together on a conspiracy to make the world a better, more sustainable place for no reason. Can

The IPCC reports don't paint a picture that things are going to be mostly okay, and those reports in many ways are conservative, because they can't include feedback loops and tipping points we are not entirely sure about. Complica

How is a scientific consensus religion? Millions of hours of research is going into climate change every month. Satellites, tens of thousands of sensors, 30 years of academic literature, computer simulations. Meanwhile climate change denier

For a second I was excited that they made some kind of hybrid panel, but they just glued two displays together, which is dumb. You can buy a holder for an e-ink tablet, arrange it more ergonomically, even remove it and bring it with yoursel

Not the most search engine friendly acronym. Those El Salvador success stories aren't exactly honest either. The country adopted Bitcoin, but it didn't do them any good. When Bitcoin was introduced 9 out of 10 people had no idea w

Always the victim. Even when Twitter was fighting for free speech in 2021 in India, Musk was on the opposite side saying that India is Twitter's third largest market, and it should follow government instructions. In 2022 Twitter challe

I'm fluent in both, these days I use Helix. Vim and Emacs users tend to be busy playing with their editors, it's a distraction most people don't need. I never did either.

I don't know to be honest, but big tech is not really as left-leaning as Republicans imagine. They are pretending to be for their audiences, but they don't like the accountability, the regulations. On the other hand the report is

I wouldn't put that much importance into a specific editor, even touch typing. Typing is not a programming bottleneck. Programming is thinking and talking to people. You would have a hard time doing that if you don't even know Win

I would probably start with JavaScript and TypeScript, because you can build so many things with them. You can be very productive and employable with them. But then I would probably want to dig deeper, and start learning C, Zig, with a side
