Yea, that's well known. Not just from federal law enforcement with proof of it, but twitter, youtube and facebook know it and admit to it too. Smarter Everyday interviewed all 3 and their folks talk about this directly. https:/&#

Yea... but they dont exist in a vacuum. What can we do about people who are easily fooled by stupid crap? That's a serious question. People keep believing in the dumbest things and defend that to the death. When I was growing up, there

I think you just fell into the trap op was referring to. Tech debt is used too broadly and has become a keyword without any real understanding. No matter what you do, there will be tech debt of some sort. There's no perfect solution wh

Critical thinking? Is it really critical thinking to understand that people have been dishonest to make money since... oh I don't know... the past few millennia? I know it's a fairly recent concept, but I think it's happened

It's a laptop minus the screen... that's all it amounts to. It's a keyboard with the proc and memory underneath it. I don't understand how any of this is revolutionary or special. Hell, it doesn't even have a batter

Y'all realize the silliness here? People are willing to end their family ties due to becoming a fan for a political figure. I don't care which side you are on, but to be hateful against someone close to you, literally an individua

A good base search would be "lease vs buy equipment tax benefits" for your country/state/city, just to get your feet wet. There are different incentives for different areas. From there, you should be able to google fu ar

Um, the real reason CFOs go for cloudserver solutions is tax reasons. The tax breaks for "leasing" instead of owning, are a cheap way of an exec looking good to a board (plus it's easier to do creative accounting). I promise

Okay, what are the rules to determining the proper sample? How can you objectively determine if one sample is better or worse than another?

81k is kind of a shitty sample size to make a sweeping worldwide judgement for 7+billion. Next part, since the focus of 2020 was Covid testing, I'm pretty sure flu testing resources were lessened in the process, if not borderline ignor

Yay! Someone got the joke! Though, I'm dead inside now since people took it way too seriously and got into a pissy fit that I insinuated there are no atheists. Thank you, because for a while there, I thought I was taking crazy pills ag

Do a quick search on Youtube, there's a recording of I Have No Mouth read by Ellison. It's ~40min long. It's so damn good but will also put you in a nihilistic funk for a while.

There's a part of me that believes in this age of humanity, deep down we still question whether or not God/gods is/are real. Thus, we're trying to commit the most insane and outrageous atrocities to humanity, science and

I think the biggest issue: there's more money behind "successful" US series compared to "successful" British. When a show gets big, more money is dumped on it. The issue with that goes beyond the standard creative p

Aren't both arguments just overfitting then? The article is an overfit of a situation unique to them (great walkability and on-time, frequent public transit is not commonplace) and the OP you're replying to sees a high need of ind
