More attempts to change society by changing our language. Is there any documented evidence that solutions like this may work? My company tried to get everyone to use "folks" instead of "guys". And almost no one follows

I think this problem can be solved quite easily with the following mindset: Do something that might make you happy. If it doesn't make you happy, try something else. If it does make you happy, keep doing it. If the thing that made you

Epstein has connections with a lot of people. Not all of them were engaging in nefarious behavior Billionaires have their own private jet sharing, and Epstein provided a lot of funding to the science community. Epstein was shady and connect

Again, if you read the article you'd be able to answer these questions. Here's the math: - 2.89 billion hectares of land is used for pasture, one third of which (870 million hectares) is suitable for growing crops. - 538 million h

Your point is was that “you can’t do anything else with the land” - which is flat wrong. We can allow it to reforest. Which is doing something. Your claim that the human population cannot survive on a vegetarian diet is also wrong. The arti

Huh? Vegetarian/Vegan diets use a fraction of the land compared to a omnivores diet. https://ourworldindata.org/land-use-diets

I like the idea to try to improve these. But it may be a lot like suggesting updates to a coding style guide. Sometimes you can find some changes that improve utility value, and are worth the effort to collectively migrate to, but largely,

There has been plenty said about the topic. Have you read Clean Code? The Wikipedia page? The Pragmatic Programmer? The depth on the subject has been expanded far more than just “single responsibility”. Here is Bob responding to OPs link:

You’ve never seen SRP in practice? This is honestly concerning. You’ve never seen like a User class that only encapsulates fields and methods relating to a User abstraction?

Joseph Henrich, a professor of human biological evolution as Harvard, has some pretty good theories on the subject. He defines culture as, ”the large body of practices, techniques, heuristics, tools, motivations, values, and beliefs that we

I don’t find this critique strong at all. This essay seems to largely evade the main arguments brought forth by the hoaxers and retreat to attacking the imperfect mapping to Mein Kampf. The hoaxers did not care so much that their paper mapp

The internet is also a public place in many ways. If someone overhears my name and sees my face and discovers my personal website or LinkedIn page, then they have only discovered MORE public information about me. There is no privacy breach
