I did grow up on Linux. My dad put OpenSUSE on the family computer. I learned to break it and re-image the machine. I learned to work with a command-line interface. There was no power broker that stood in the way. But then, that's

Interesting thoughts. How do they achieve this? And do you believe it will hold up to increasing automation? There are definitely good non-college jobs in America, though fewer than there were fifty years ago. Many are trades - welder, c

I've seen the same among most Republicans I know. They're despondent because the Republican party these days is just fighting against the far-leftists that are taking over the Democrat party. It's basically a one-way ratche

Meritorcacy is the worst form of allocating resources except for all those other forms, I'd say. How else would you suggest doing it? A meritocracy at least gives people a way to strive to do better. A system in which one cannot rai

It's not really a fuel filter. Or technically it is, but it's really a suppressor kit sold as a fuel filter. You may also hear them called or sold as "solvent traps". This is largely because a suppressor is largely a

> The PC version is not safe for children. I'm curious what you mean by this. What makes something safe for children or not? (This is an honest question from someone who doesn't have children and so doesn't really know.)

Yeah, when I think of wish.com, I usually think of "fuel filters" or auto switches. Not exactly a reputation for quality.

My point is that master/slave actually conveys a relationship between two things. It was picked for technical use because of that. Naming something "nigger", even in a technical would do what, offend some other piece of cod

by da_big_ghey 6y ago
Master/slave has a technical meaning beyond the sense of one person enslaving another. "Nigger" has no use case outside of making horrible and offensive remarks, aside from historical writing (e.g. To Kill a Mockingbird) or

> 1 might gain, but everybody will lose. Exactly. Based on talking with others about their salaries, I usually seem to be one who gains. So I will oppose efforts to normalize pay for a given role because I will lose and probably take a

I saw a joke on that the other day: After hearing about Oregon's recent de-criminalization of hard drugs, a bunch of druggies were celebrating by doing cocaine in a public park. An officer walks up to them and says, "Is that a pl

This is a delay of taxes, but does not avoid them in the long term. To be brought back and used in America, taxes will have to be paid on the money. It defers the tax hit, but does not remove it. If Apple wants to use that money for R&am

I meant LLVM monoculture, not Clang monoculture. All the new languages use LLVM for a backend. (There are, of course, exceptions, but the point stands.)

It's nice to see an LLVM alternative. I get the appeal of putting all of the optimizations in one place so that everyone can use them, but the concerns over an LLVM monoculture are also valid. Now all that's missing is something
