Not the same, it's much harder to watch video content than content you can read. I don't have time to spend 30 minutes watching some in-depth video essay on a game, but I can read someone's blog for 5 minutes that hits all th

These subthreads from my comments are absolutely bonkers, people are willing to give companies that routinely lie to us again and again sometimes lying for literal generations to us! and people STILL give them the benefit of the doubt. Peop

For sure, I feel like that movie has to spend time showing the galactic jihad and the true horrors it brings. The book just skips this (which works too IMO, but not suitable for movies; ya gotta show, not tell).

I'm pretty sure Denis Villeneuve has said on the record that he plans on adapting Dune Messiah if the movies are successful, which is a great bookend to Paul Atreides story.

Makes me regret I didn't take PTO to watch it, half my team are. :D

I'm not talking about just banning plastics (it should be banned involving anything food related IMO) but actually taxing these materials as the hazardous materials they surely are. Why would you ever expect a bottling plant to move aw

Yes, they shed plastics: https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2024/01/12/plastic-bottles-n... The question should be reversed, is there anything made of plastic that doesn't shed particles? It seems like

We're seriously going to say that a substance that was very recently introduced to human society is as risky as food poisoning? How often do the commoners have to suffer through businesses ill-attempt to save money while poisoning us?

Should plastic containers shedding millions of nano particles be considered sanitary? The only reason it’s used is that the externalities aren’t properly taxed (or not banned IMO). Maybe we should not use things that are “easier” when they

I disagree, learning how bad certain business people are is useful for society. Jack Welch ruined the lives of many families and played an explicit role in giving people cancer by dumping waste into public spaces. Talking about this is doin

Would you care to speak about cases where Svelte added “one more feature” that ruined simplicity? Or were you referring to something else? Genuinely curious as I’m burnt out of the react ecosystem entirely. Svelte seems good but haven’t don

What do you mean by tech dead end? Has Oracle reached a tech dead in? Are they still a successful business? What about SalesForce, did they hit their tech brick wall yet? Are they still a successful business? I mean we all work in an indust

Calling it public theater is pretty laughable. The amount you get for $25 a month as a consumer is insane. I literally have a 24/7 consultant with surface level understand of any topic in human history. This consultant also happens to

You're making it seem like OpenAI is a dumpster fire and not literally the only company that is MILES ahead of its competition. Not too mention they're supposedly a billion in yearly revenue. Not even Google can compete. It could

I’d believe this argument if the house of representatives wasn’t capped and DC became a state.

If the board allows it, why should the public care? Aren't self imploding companies good for the economy? It allows newer ones to fulfill their place.

You don’t need to “limit power” (whatever that means), you just need to make people accountable. Getting rid of qualified immunity for most law enforcement agents would be a good start.

Has there been any in depth interviews with the creators of these products? Do they have a healthy relationship? Do they have children? Would they encourage their children to use these products? I want to know how these people think because

What kinds of tests are you acing? Also for learning wouldn’t it be better to actually challenge yourself and exercise the brain muscles when learning something new? I’ve met too many first year college students who breezed through high sch

I agree with the other poster, do you have a repo someone willing to share?

Is it any different than DataDog, Splunk, NewRelic, Gitlab, DigitalOcean, or any of the other publicly traded saas companies? I mean Figma seems more sticky than something like DataDog. I worked at a company that would hop from DataDog to N

That definitely sounds bad. I wonder what sort of justification they had to not tell people who left? Not having closure is one of the most common grievances people have about relationships, friends, lovers, siblings, or colleagues that dis

Is it? Watching animals attack other animals, suffering seems very likely. What’s the reason why science would dismiss it? That the animal doesn’t fill out a survey afterwards?

That’s perfectly fine for me. I can map the key items myself, the hard part is I don’t want to devote a solid 120+ hours manually creating the CSVs for 150 receipts. Is it possible you can discuss more what you did?

hmm, IDK if a scanner would help me. I already have pictures of my receipts. I might have to do more research because I feel like there's gotta be something out there where you can just show images of receipts and have it generate a cs

Didn’t the CEO literally fire the entire rust team, not start the team? I guess that’s a surplus good if you meant for all these highly skilled engineers taking their talents to other companies.
