So... they just became profitable, and now they're about to spite a lot of users for about 10% of their revenue? I hope this day haunts them. I can't believe how many people are discussing this as if ads are the utmost legitimate

I'm fairly against arbitration and I'm fairly certain it's much more limited here in Canada. In this particular story, what strikes me is the amounts being discussed. 1 million dollars isn't chump change to anyone. If

I've read somewhere that driverless trucks are pretty much as hard as driverless anything, because there's always that last mile in a city. It's impossible for the ride to be 100% automated, and anything less is pointless at

This is very possible, but also there could be multiple reasons. I don't drink any coffee and have a lifestyle very similar to OP's, and usually can't fall asleep before 2am. It strikes me as improbable that people with simil

Yes, but YouTube is being absolutely overzealous for no legal reason. Rather, I think it serves the double purpose of keeping the government (and regulation) very far away, while pandering to big content producers at the same time.

They've surely realized very early on, they've just been trying very hard to be hush about it. Can't blame them, much as I dislike them.

I happen to have tried my best at that so far and I think this line of thinking is mostly an excuse not to develop empathy and show compassion.

Interestingly, almost no one in NA justice systems talks about evil. The causality between life events leading to crime is often ridiculously clear, and choice barely factors into it. Believing in evil is its own kind of privilege. I for on

As someone who is both a developper and a psychology student, your average coder knows about as much psychology as your average psychologist knows about coding. That is to say, not a whole lot. I am saddened but not surprised by psychology&

Not sure if I understand your comment. Alphabet is google's parent company, allegedly created to assuage the fear of a giant entity by turning it into multiple quite big entities.

Good to see philanthropy from up high. That said, I haven't seen the term "American dream" used unironically in years. I've never been shown it as something worth reviving, insofar as it's deeply intertwined with no

I'm sort-of leaving tech, but I've worked in web dev for 8 years, and this is the first I hear of Gutenberg. From what I understand, it's better WYSIWYG. Great, but we have entire essays demonstrating how WYSIWYG is garbage.

An interesting point and not untrue, but it's only important if we're trying to get at "human nature" in itself, which to me seems kind of silly as we're social animals by nature. In practice, there's nothing w

Good comeback, sad that it's relevant too. I've seen entirely too many sketchy books and articles attempting to link quantum physics and psychology.
