Is it very valid if they hired you as a remote employee to start with?

If this is the bar for “harming your wife’s mental and emotional state”, I bid you the very best luck working through literally anything difficult. And all relationships eventually do encounter difficulties. Something being uncomfortable an

The halting problem does not forbid us from discerning if SOME programs will ever halt. It says that there are definitely programs for which we cannot know. I suspect most of the MTG infinite loops are something like "A triggers B, B t

As this applies to DHH, are you suggesting that having and expressing an opinion can cause "harm"?

You are implying here that having and expressing an opinion on social policy is worth "holding someone accountable" for. Be careful with that hammer. It feels righteous to wield until the acceptable opinion changes in a way you do

I don't label myself conservative. Conservatives also exhibit this behavior, but it is seen as more "socially acceptable" to do this under the banner of liberal values. To address your point, I am not disputing Duke's _r

One of the things that has always tickled me about this bent of "liberal thinking" is that they generally believe two things at once: 1. people who commit crimes -- even heinous ones -- deserve a second chance and reintegration wi

I much prefer Linux but having used Macs a few times for work, I absolutely cannot recommend making GNU coreutils the default option on Macs. If you make GNU coreutils the first binaries in PATH, you can expect subtle, _very nasty_ issues.

I don't think people here have sympathy for ISPs. I sure don't. I'm still against this particular rule because it sets a very problematic precedent. There are other non-problematic ways to hold them accountable. Like fining I

Even from the "underserved people" standpoint, most of the people who have shit-tier internet are people living in very rural areas (read: overwhelmingly white). There is no valid reason to turn this into yet another performative

If you wanna go down that road, compel them to build the infrastructure where it was promised. Or issue a fine for the amount they were given, plus interest. We don't need to play silly "affirmative action" games to keep them

The loss here is the psychological impact of knowing your home has been violated, and thereby feeling less safe. Which is quite substantial for many.

Done is not always "better than perfect". A bridge that is done isn't better if it collapses due to poor engineering and kills people. All software is not life or death. But software can be something people come to rely on. I

It is specifically able to replicate when plaque is present in the arteries. With America's obesity problem, maybe China thought this virus could knock the US down a peg or two.

Yes, and what I am saying is that if people on your team cannot let a trivial, unimportant technical detail go, that is a people problem. You may have avoided the silly argument about code formatting. But if that tendency lives in your engi

Isn't this a people problem and not a technical problem?

If precision isn't needed, why do you need to know it was last week? Why can't the precise date be displayed for those who need it?

What I said was accurate. _I_ can play on whatever device _I_ want. :-) I take your point. Even so, Steam is leagues ahead of everyone else in this regard. I have Steam games I bought 10 years ago that I can still play on my current desktop

That might be useful if iPhones and iPads weren't gimped platforms. There is no Steam (let alone any other game store) on iDevices. Just Apple's store. As a consumer, I don't wanna pay for a game on Apple's store just so

I think the real problem is that human beings are biased and have a very strong negative reaction to things which are actually unbiased.

I don't understand why this behavior is surprising to anybody. If you have a list of three things, the condition must be met for three things. Likewise for a list of two things, the condition must be met for two things. The pattern hol

Is there any mechanism in the legal system to hold Kansas State Police criminally liable? Is qualified immunity so impenetrable that well-documented, repeat violations of citizens rights aren't enough to break it? If this sort of malic

It sounds to me like what you're saying is "data isn't important as long as I agree with the conclusion." These diversity "studies", as the grandparent points out, are light on data and heavy on marketing. Seve

Does anybody think that something like this is useful except as an academic exercise? I can't get there. There are many languages better suited to delivering native apps. The pitfalls of electron are already well understood. If you nee

How does this agency determine who can meaningfully participate in the study? Are they going to have the expertise to make that determination for _every_ study that could possibly be conducted? What is the difference (to a layperson) betwee

What is preventing someone from having 200 participants, but saying they only had 100 participants, and then only providing evidence for 100 participants?
