When I see the stereotypical sitcom dad, he keeps fucking up to telegraph to the audience that he's a fuckup, AKA Barney Fife, not to be a morality play "don't do this or this will happen." Barney can't not be a fuc

If I watch an action movie, I am not intimidated by or identify with the cool guy in the movie because I'm not the guy they're portraying. When sitcoms and commercials emasculate and defame the everyman, I know they're talkin

Terms like "thug" "lynch" etc have always felt weird to me when people insist that they are racialized, but in the media the last several years I've heard it in higher correlation to a black purported criminal than

I'm sorry if I came across too whiny, your service is fantastic and we are still very happy users. I had to engage your support team a while back and it was handled great, far better than I have come to expect from Internet companies.

A guy in my church is a doctor, and a couple years ago they had to treat a teenager for temporary blindness because of this garbage. It is a sad irony that if marijuana had been legal, it would have been safer.

Requires their highest tier of service, enterprise, which their docs say average 5,000usd a month. Guess we'll keep sharing passwords with no 2FA :-(

Yeah even the paper cited notes that it's a technical challenge to make multiple races in the same shot look good using either film or video cameras, and so in the past things were just optimized for the predominant racial category in

I don't believe that "downvote to disagree" is compatible with "encouraging intellectual diversity". I tend to only do it when disagrees particularly poorly, eg bad evidence or reasoning, or is being a jerk. But I d

"derpy" is a third-removed phrase that is short for herp-derp, which itself is short for hurf-durf, which came from a Metafilter comment. The original usage is something like "HURF DURF ${oblivious_statement}" and it mea

There could not be a more stark difference between feminists I know in person and some of the cranks that are popular online. At least part of the problem is that social media selects for bombast. What horrifies me is that this mode of thin

There's a cadre of people who troll this site for crimethink, then screencap it and post it to Twitter under the hashtag #hnwatch. If you have your name or company in your profile, be careful about posting here too.

That cartoon was offensively terrible. Like, "you wasted your money making this" terrible. I can't see it working for anybody. There are some artists that could make an amazing SDF cartoon, like Kenichi Sonoda or Katsuhiko Ni
