Basic Income is Utopianism. It's appeal is a populist reaction to the uncertain times we live in. No different from rightwing populism such as Trump. The other problem is its association with Socialism, which has been democratically re

This article is nonsense, the author says the 4K laptop weighs "under a pound" and then admits in the comments that he doesn't actually know the weight. SPAM?

"I have no plans to travel to the US while Trump is president." Statements like this baffle me. Literally no-one in any position of authority cares if an individual doesn't want to come to the USA. Also, if you exclude the

My website gets 75,000,000 total requests per month through CloudFlare, so they estimate 6-11 leaks. I am happy with the way CloudFlare have responded to this.

80% of total members continued to use the website after the password reset? That seems too high. Perhaps they meant 80% of active members. Unless the website had an incredibly low churn rate.

I wish there was more acknowledgement of how NOISY the keyboard is on the new MacBook Pros. It's not possible to use it in a quiet environment without being embarrassed.

"While I'm at it, please explain why science has become so politicized by the political right." I hope I can answer this from a neutral perspective. The left gave up on implementing global socialism; it was rejecting by the

Regarding database abstraction, the author writes: "In 10 years, I’ve seen only one business make serious effort to completely swap a fully vested database. And when it happened, the “Magic file” did not help." Agreed. I almost em

"Most of us are here for evidence-based discussion." So far the evidence has been "I talked about x and a few days later I saw an advert for x". It's absurd cringy nonsense.
