I think that observation is far more wise than it initially seems.

If it's 80% women, why shouldn't it be devalued for men, and vice-versa? If 80% of your farming community is mexican, why shouldn't their values be more highly reflected? This is completely natural, it's reality and the

Dorian Abbot is a perfect example of why you're wrong. He opposes affirmative action and as a result got cancelled at MIT for a _completely_ unrelated talk about climate and life on other planets. If you yourself disagree with him and

What's funny is that everyone was attacking Jonathan Blow for being against LSP, but his primary argument is all that computation is going to be slow. He has a point, although the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for sure.

No, Linus has a way of seeing straight through bullshit to the heart of the matter. You may not like that how he expresses himself, but a part of that is making it very clear where the bullshit is. For example, his take on security bug pri

Thank you for your post, I find it very fascinating. I used to play MUDs back in the day and they had a protocol that, in theory, could allow you to move from MUD to MUD and transfer your character. I don't think it ever got really po

fair enough, I do think it's arguable that users of ChromeOS would regularly do that, but I get your point. Also, I had a System76 laptop for work once and absolutely loved it. I tried to buy it when I left, but they weren't happ

The service that sent that receipt was one of those 3rd party services for small vendors. You go to a bakery and they are able to magically email you a receipt, that sort of thing. So I very much doubt the person put their email in incorre

I think their point is that influencers have always existed, it's the underlying model that has changed. And I tend to agree. People bought into Logan Pauls scam because they trusted him, the same way that people will buy a product be

I'm not a fan of the whole "the market will deal with it" thing. Here's my analogy (I was talking about this as far back as the late 90's). 1. Assume global warming is happening. 2. Assume that global warming is

ChromeOS counts the same way that MacOS being popular means that "Year of BSD desktop" has already happened. Technically true, but not what is meant by that term.

I have a friend who has been in china since before covid hit, teaching english to kids. He just told me today that China has lifted all restrictions surrounding covid and are letting it run its course. As a result, he and his gf have both

And honestly, this is why I'm ok with big tech getting highly regulated. In many ways they're _ALREADY_ more powerful than state actors. They were pretty open about their attempts at manipulating the last presidential election, a

while I don't agree that they're better at trading, your response is clearly wrong here. A congress person is able to constantly make decisions with imperfect information and be successful doing it, one can imagine that skill coul

They're pointing out that something being illegal doesn't stop it from happening. But more to the point, you're wrong here and we know you to be wrong because otherwise white collar crime wouldn't exist, but it does.

emotions are way more complicated than that. For example, lust is an emotion with a very practical goal.

I've often wondered about this. It seems to me one of the bigger risk factors is attempting to maximize profit. If you're ok not trying to maximize profit it seems to me that you can mitigate quite a bit of risk in the short term

I have two gmail accounts and one of them did that to me several years back. But both accounts do nothing but forward to my fastmail account where I have rules setup for them. So it was a giant nothingburger for me. If they're so sec

yep, another super happy fastmail user here. I'm not opposed to hosting my own email server, I'm just too lazy to do it.

When I first got my iphone I purchased a game called Orbital, this was around the time the ipad 3 came out with its new "retina" screen. My buying habits very quickly changed once I realized that mobile "games" meant for

I think the issue is that a phone mostly sits in your pocket, a car is clearly visible to everyone when you "enter the room", as it were. The other issue is copying it is too easy, so even if Apple tried the look of it would very

right, you can't imagine that working, can you? The reason we're looking for a manager is that there isn't one, but the show must go on. One of those 3 teams was managed solely by me after it was created to build a new integ

After seeing this post my opinion has finally clicked over to "you're a shitty manager". You're imagining a managers job is to ensure quality. That's a tech leads job. And QA, if you have them. You're imagini

Not only that, in the future I'm more likely to assume this judge is acting in good faith in the middle of other "controversies". Recusing oneself as a judge is the ethical thing to do.
