It does seem irresponsible as a father to illegally cross a country’s border with your child in-tow and enroll them in the school system knowing that you are breaking the law. IMO it is a bit more forgivable as a young individual looking fo

Not accusing you of this directly, but this sounds like trying to get people to just accept lower living standards.

Just assume startup equity will be worthless (which it almost always is).

GitHub has zero incentive to do this because it would hurt their analytics/metrics.

There's a huge gamble with roommates that you might be stuck with someone terrible in a year (or longer) lease. Most people who can afford to live alone would prefer to have their own place. This is just a sign that people are getting

Sounds like we need a nationalized search engine company then?

Sure, just saying the optics of this is unlikely to garner much sympathy from the public. They should instead ask their bosses to cut down on H1B hiring then instead of ICE raids if ICE has nothing to do with tech.

From what I’ve seen, tech companies are very lax about visa overstays. I’ve never heard of a tech company that actually enforces visa overstays or violations. (Why would they?)

If you are calling for an indefinite pause on immigration enforcement, the optics of that are de-facto pro-immigration, e.g. who is going to enforce worker visas overstays if not ICE?

I think people would be more sympathetic to this if the tech job market wasn’t completely frozen as it is now. Hard to make the case for more immigration when so many American CS grads are struggling with unemployment. E.g. I think they sho

They have to due to shareholders. So it’s not really up to them.

Most of the people today with nothing to lose are just self-medicating on weed, sports betting, Netflix, etc. I don't think there's much to be worried about.

We're already past the point of no return IMO. It's why people are having fewer kids.

It is. Reddit is probably 99% fraud/bots at this point.

So then people also won't be able to one-shot prompt an ad blocker on mobile either then. And mobile is where most of the ad money is.

> I can't think of a single thing that big tech has done to improve my life, or society for that matter, over the last 10 years. Apple silicon has been pretty transformative for desktop/laptop-class chips.

The upshot is that having everything be AI slop could be what breaks our collective addiction to chronic screen time/usage.

There's probably a selection bias in that people who opt-out of dating/relationships probably just want to be left alone most of the time. I doubt there's a huge overlap between people who want to share meals with strangers a

I meant it's been true forever that people with partners generally have a financial advantage over single people. (Even if they're not in a two-income household.)

by OGEnthusiast 9mo ago
Hasn't this been true forever? Of course people who have a partner will be better off financially since they can pool incomes and split expenses.

I just tried that on Tahoe (26.2) and it didn't drag the window with Ctrl+Cmd+drag. Is it supposed to work on all windows?

I actually wish macOS would clone Alt-dragging from anywhere to drag and Alt-right clicking to resize from anywhere from Linux (at least GNOME and KDE Plasma have this built-in). That would certainly solve most of the complaints in the orig

It seems odd that the US government doesn't have enough resources to just go after everyone whose in the country illegal, and instead has to prioritize and triage based on e.g. money or melanin. I think people would find it more fair i

Which is odd since visa overstays should be more "legible" to the government in terms of at least knowing their name and when they entered, which should make them easier and more efficient to deport. Unlike illegals who hop the bo

Yeah I think Trump/MAGA doesn't want Algerians in the US so that's a feature not a bug to them.
