It has to be people pushing companies to do it. Which is why it is exactly counter-productive to post "Of course companies won't do anything" when a person is demanding a company do better.

So which do you think makes more sense: Police are not allowed to arrest people, or everyone is allowed to arrest?

Again: I use it every single day. Not for "CYA". No need to be condescending.

This does not strike you as ridiculous, at all?

Forcing each user to maintain an always-online machine is not really a good solution compared to just... having the history available to everyone, always.

That is a tool that takes something like 10x the effort of having built-in file transfers. It is just not a good solution.

by DagAgren 7y ago
As I said, I use this every single day of the week. Not having it means it is not even close to a solution.

Yes, like Slack.

How do you work around the lack of a kept history?
430.
by DagAgren 7y ago
I am well aware of how to do this, yes. I do not find this a good solution. So dial back the snark.

I am an old-time IRC user, but IRC is missing tons of features I use literally every single day in Slack. It does not have well-functioning and reliable file transfers. It does not keep history of discussions. It does not have media embeddi

Except for the symbol the article is about.

by DagAgren 7y ago
Unambiguously, except for the symbol this article is about, which is ambiguous.
435.
by DagAgren 7y ago
The issue here is that this symbol does not correspond to a single position in the matrix, but varies quite wildly depending on regional accent.

They compromised the part that you already said was not important, not the "entire functional user experience", though?
437.
by DagAgren 7y ago
Why are you assuming that one excludes the other?
438.
by DagAgren 7y ago
I think that's the wrong angle to take. People who obsess over cringe are people who desperately need to find someone to feel better about. It's a symptom of low self esteem and self-loathing, amplified by internet-powered vicious

Furries tend to be a lot more open-minded about the entire queer spectrum.

No, I am arguing that everyone can and should do all they can to condemn hatred. That regular people should make sure there are consequences for being a hateful bigot. And that people should not get tricked by "both-sides" bullshi

Nowhere near as bad as the ecosystem around crypto, which is absolutely filled with scammers and criminals. Give me real money every day, I'm happy to pay a small fee in order to not have to deal with the hive of scum and villainy that

Yeah, no, you can't physically prevent that, not without a perfect panopticon police state. If you allow intolerance to spread, it WILL, without fail, hurt people. Sometime, immense number of people. This is not theoretical. It happens

Views lead to actions. You can not draw a line between them and hope people will happily stand on one side of it. If you allow intolerant views, you normalise intolerance. If you normalise intolerance, you ALSO normalise intolerant acts, an

Yeah, none of that is the case. The first thing he did after being fired was run to the far-right propaganda outlets. That was very telling of what he actually believed.

> Your colleagues are not an authentic social network who you can organise with and pursue activism. This is absolutely, 100% false. This is exactly what you SHOULD do, and this is what unions are for. Always organise with coworkers. Oth

Because it would be a challenge to implement, for instance, an actual user-facing application in Julia.

The most important thing to understand here is that these people are NOT actually that amazing! They are a wide spectrum of coders, artists and musicians of widely varying capabilities. What people do have is some very PARTICULAR skillsets.

It lives on the stack, it definitely isn't volatile.
