To sum up the weird way that we all watch a ton of porn but don't talk about it, sex spreads disease and risks childbirth. Reading doesn't. Because it is so dangerous it becomes a taboo thing, it can't be public and widesprea

I just read the first few paragraphs of this article before I stopped, but my very first instinct reading this is that it feels a lot like old me. Disdain for basic human things is not a great sign. Eating food and enjoying food is not prim

I'm honestly amazed that out of the top million sites, which probably includes a ton of tiny tiny sites that are idle or abandoned, only ten percent are offline.

I am confused, nothing in this video seemed to address what I was talking about. Is there one of these points that you think is relevant?

Ants aren't humans. They do not share, condense, or process information. If you look at the limiter of human advancement you find that single points of high computational power aren't limiting us. Instead, it is human ability to

We are not limited by either of those things. Sure, single individuals might be, but we aren't single individuals, we are a group. As a group, most of our advances actually come from individual going out and experimenting and having

I think fears of that are incredibly incredibly overblown. You're going to have to show pretty conclusively quite a few assumptions to be true before I'd be willing to be scared of it. It's kind of the computer science equiva

You really just have to follow the trend of human energy use, eventually we're going to get to a point that planetary scale changes are within our reach, and eventually they'll be easy. Technically we're already changing the

An inevitable step in human progress is to seize control of the planet's climate for ourselves. We should not accept that the world will change around us, we should make the world fit our interests. On a time scale at which the world

This is part of the reason I'd be all right to move to something that relies on the JDK. I had heard this before when people were talking about how c sharp has gone open source.

I have heard it's catching up with C#, but the implementation in that link where you have a person model and you have to write a function just to get/set a string turns me away. That said, there's actually some interesting st

Google is another one of those companies that controls people with whatever power you give them. I don't want to be reliant on them as much as I don't want to be reliant on Microsoft. I'm sure their engineers are great, as i

I guess I should say I don't want to code in a purely dynamic language, and because of that it is reliant on TypeScript. I don't want to use JS without types. You 100% can do that, I just don't want to.

Unless I'm wrong, my understanding is that Java is just kind of a bad language. What makes C# great is how heavily it has leaned towards functional programming. Java, As far as I understand, is still very object-oriented and very clums

As someone who there's a lot of programming with C# and loves it, are there any good alternatives? This plus the stuff they're doing with Minecraft recently has me very much wanting to get away from them. They've made it cl

Horrible is the wrong word. It's like meeting someone and they stink. In my experience the people who consistently fail to draw these lines also tend to end up being some sort of toxic to you and or your friend group and or your compa

Anyone is fine to share porn online. Just make a spare account and have some shame about it. When it's part of your public persona is when it's a problem. Unless it's literally of you, then things get a lot more complicated.

This, assuming it applies to the open source dev teams as well, just makes the windows store less worth using. The option to buy a convenient copy of krita from the store while also supporting the devs was amazing. So, now it's just a

Something that worries me, if someone cracks our current encryption using quantum computers couldn't they be logging everything we say right now and everything we say right now is actually unsecure to someone 10 years in the future?
