It's a flimsy argument for sure. But we live in a reality where Meta, Google and other past bastion of progressive movements have taken a 180 turn upon Trump's first week of reign. Is it that much of a stretch to assume that a lar

I don't know if people who will readily accuse others of racism as a tool of retribution can be considered genuinely serious about their DEI endorsement. Now with the winds changing directions under Trump administration 2.0, the same p

Is this just pedantry or is there some insight to be gleaned by the distinction you made?

AI is quickly blurring the line between makers and curators. If the next wave of advancement in logo-generating AI will allow us to converse with it meaningfully and work with it as a creative director might work with her associate designer

If Biden created a branch of the government called "Freedom, Liberty, and Happiness for America" with enormous funding and filled it with his allies and sycophants with dubious goals, would you say its critics are "against fr

Not an Apple user here. What's changed? Can you share more details about what made them "dogshit"?

Being in an AI domain does not invalidate the fundamental logic. If an expensive tool can make you productive enough to offset the cost, then the tool is worth it for all intents and purposes.

When you highlight only the negatives, yeah it does sound like no one should hire that intern. But what if the same intern happens to have an encyclopedia for a brain and can pour through massive documents and codebases to spot and fix coun

For you, the question is theoretical. For me, I've lived it. Before I transitioned into software, I had a very a fulfilling life being paid a mediocre salary as a graphic designer, supporting my family for years and investing plenty of

Are you saying that for people making median level of income, the US is a horrible place to live compared to the rest of the world? As someone who was able to experience both perspectives (immigrated to the US and became a citizen) I cannot

The original unedited post included theories about the current president being a political transplant to secretly bring down the Korean right.

Please note that this is not a majority sentiment in Korea. This is a fringe conspiracy theory popular among the 4chan-like crowd in SK. Edit: It looks like the parent post was updated to remove the conspiratorial stuff. The sole fact liste

I think the old way works well for a smaller scale app that doesn't need to change often. Otherwise, I find the components-based code reuse to be a pretty valuable pattern, especially when working as a team.

Valve still knows how to make excellent games. Deadlock is a Valve game in alpha, and I think it's going to be very popular once released.

I'm confused. Do you not trust any mainstream media? Where do you get your news? World and local? Eyewitness accounts only?

by educasean 2y ago
... Most of them? Do you read the news at all? If you can't trust any of them, then why even bother?

Your argument seems to be that the majority of the world are the weak being sacrificed but are too ignorant to realize it. I wholeheartedly disagree with this theory.

The problem is that sports gambling introduces conflicting interests. It's one thing to coast and collect paychecks, it's a whole another thing for a player to actively sabotage their own team.

I wanted to make sure I understood which side of the equation I fell on. And I must say, it looks to me like a lot of people in the "weak" camp aren't helpless martyrs though, myself included. People are excited and enthusias

AI has given us an infinitely patient mentor, teacher, and conversation partner. AI has freed us from of many areas of rote work requiring basic reasoning capacity. AI has allowed people with little to no coding abilities to realize their i

How has the Internet? How has automobiles? Feels like a rather aimless question.

Who are the weak being "sacrificed"? And who is the one calling for action? Sorry for being dense, but I'm trying to understand if I'm the "strong" or the "weak" in your analogy.

Not necessarily. Some people are just less sensitive to latency, so even if a 20ms added delay might not be noticeable to you, it doesn't mean that other people won't feel it.

The downgrade in lens type is a huge difference in user experience. Pancake lens is strictly superior than fresnel in almost all aspects, unless you want OLED. In the case of 3S you don't get OLED anyways, so it's a pretty big dow

Yeah we're stuck with lame also-rans like Google, Meta, Apple and nvidia. California sounds like it really needs your help.
