It's become a thing over the past few months if not longer. People tell their stories in the sentence per paragraph form, thinking it adds drama, I guess. I find it a bit annoying.

Agreed. There is Computer Science, Software Engineering, and then Application Programming. SW engineers work in OSs, drivers, firmware, and applied areas likes comms and robotics, where "move fast and break things" isn't th

I think you're just ahead of the time at which this will become acceptable. In the early 2000s when the UK started deploying cameras everywhere, the end of the world was predicted.

Do you think such comprehensive enforcement would be limited to traffic violations? While you might not want it, you're advocating for total surveillance, and severe authoritarianism.

Yes I have. Guarding national security is one thing. Keeping a new consumer gadget secret is another. Apple isn't so important.

To be honest, that doesn't sound like a "good" friend to me. Doesn't trust you enough to share not only any work details, but not even an opinion either? Maybe too much self-importance?

Purposeful != functional, and I don't argue that they serve no purpose. My point is it's a lot of detail work (i.e. BS) for something that does no 'work' -- it's a lot of overhead for a visual cue.

I think the point is look at all the BS complexity just to display a non functional icon.

So, speech about fat or trans people must be limited to "caring about their rights"? If you can't say something nice then you're not allowed to say anything at all?

My wife and her family immigrated to the US from China -- they all believe that MSG is bad, too.

And yet more than a million people migrate here every year. They must not be good students of history.

Basically the advice is "when learning to use a hammer, see everything as a nail. Nail everything, and use no other tools." IMHO terrible advice.

Doesn't the California Nurses Union strike almost regularly, anyway? Assuming that nurses have a better understanding of the virus than average laypeople, and given the facts of the number of positive cases, plus the facts which under

I think China has been playing us for years, and doing so masterfully. There's no _good_ reason for the US, with our economy and standing, to be ripping itself apart from within -- but, indeed we are. Not only is China growing in powe

When California enacted their bag bans, I shifted a lot (more) of my purchasing to Amazon. If you really want retailers to make it even more inconvenient to shop at a brick and mortar, beware the consequences.

I see it the other way around. Musk's success and impact are of of truly historic proportions, and his being in California helped lift its credibility and reputation. It's sad for California to lose him (and the loss of his busi

Man, you're sounding just like I did 6 years ago before I left -- and I realize (with sympathy) that it's only become more intense there since that time. You'll be very happy to escape. Good luck!
