I have a hard time believing you've genuinely never had a lecturer take questions. I also genuinely have a hard time believing that last sentence is not, at best, a not-so-subtle attempt at putting my social awareness into question, or

To me, the main advantage of the lecture format is the possibility to have me or others grill the lecturer for questions, benefiting the whole group. From this point of view, a video of a lecture is already a compromise. In both cases, it&#

IMHO, it's not just DAWs keeping people on main OSes, but plugins. On the Linux side, Reaper, arguably one of the most popular options on Windows/macOS, has been available since 2018, BitWig is a good Ableton-like experience, and

Asia does about 50% the global emissions while having 60% of the world's population. The US alone does about 12% being 5% of global population. US approaches 15t/CO2 per capita. Every single country in Asia is under 9t, China and

Maybe this country focusing so much on keeping the gas cheap might have something to do with it.

How many CEOs actually do this? Can't say I've ever met one example of this outside startups.

Everybody eventually does get voted out in a democracy, including those who have done well. It's not a consequence but a natural process of the system.

You are equating installing personal security camera(s) to knowingly selling extra-judiciary mass-surveillance hardware and software to law enforcement. What's the point you're trying to make with this, exactly?

I would typically agree with the statement, but I have a lot of trouble giving a flying shit about the people literally selling Doxxing-As-A-Service getting doxxed in return.

Why am I still surprised to see such braindead takes on this site

The very fact they've managed to convince anyone that checking what OS I decide to run on the devices I own to check my own banking is any of their concern is a problem in and of itself.

Point me to a democracy where the failing leadership actually bears the consequences of the blame they face though.

I don't disagree at all, and as I said, I'd love for this approach to still be more of a thing. My point was more that it's taking an ever shrinking proportion of the advertising pie, cause your typical marketing people are m

While I agree with the sentiment, the world of Internet advertising just doesn't run like that at this point. The current advertisers all look like they're in the RF equipment supplier, which is probably, all things considered, wh

I read the point as "it runs in the environment I already use" for everything else, not "there are tabs".

Because anyone rational with very minimal education on history knows how little separates a free society from systemic oppression. I do realize "rational" and "tech bro" doesn't jive too well.

Who are we expecting to provide us with that plentiness of time and resources so we get to smoke a bong while they run the world, exactly?

Maybe. Honestly, it's just been the number one source of deployment issues in our stack, by a large margin, so that may be the frustration talking. It basically requires us to treat our Salesforce environments very differently from the

I mean, total societal collapse would absolutely suck, and there's indeed no guarantee that whatever will replace it won't fall into similar traps eventually, but if things actually are as you describe them, it only can get worse

Not necessarily. Opus used to become overly apologetic and started to second guess everything it did after getting insulted or "talked down", as recently as the beginning of the year. It was a surprisingly effective way to get it

For what it's worth, I had a "high-achieving" dad. The big house, going on vacation and all that jazz was nice, sure. My grandparents and the support system were cool too. I consider the grandma who raised us while he worked

How about other categories, in either direction? I seem to remember it to be a lot less clean cut at the normal/overweight boundary.
