One does not need to meet the bar of Auschwitz to be considered a death camp. A smaller death camp is still a death camp. This isn't a contest where only the worst one counts, we should be comfortable saying the holocaust was a uniquel

Sure, and as a teacher I can post my answer key out where others who are "legally" allowed access can view them. They are sharing the records with the knowledge that they are being sent to ICE . They could choose to stop sharing

"I posted the answer key openly in the hallway, how could I possibly know people would use this to cheat on their homework!" They are aware this is happening and are taking no action. They are as culpable as the other agencies.

There's a hugely material difference between deterring local property crime and handing ICE this information. ICE is deporting people to death camps (e.g. CECOT), not giving people due process, operating masked and with military suppor

It seems pretty clearly describing a state + an outcome. "(pilot control state) flight into (outcome of flight)" One of those pieces of jargon that feels silly until you go, "Oh, actually, this makes a lot of sense when you d

This is absolutely incorrect. It runs counter to every high functioning safety culture I've ever encountered. The system allowed the human to take the incorrect action. If your intern destroys your prod database, it's because yo

America is also killing a lot of people. Whether it's through deportations to inhumane prisons, cutting medical and food support, incarceration, or support for nations engaged in murder of civilians. to say nothing of the cuts to envir

Consider not. There are many accessibility reasons to not, and corporate america has screen reader users in it too.

I saw (on HN, actually) an academic definition for prejudice, discrimination, and racism that stuck with me. I might be butchering this a bit, but prejudice is basically thinking another group is less than purely because of their race. Disc

Some of TikTok is great. I mean, most of it is just dopamine hits, and it's potentially quite bad from a health perspective. But also, plenty of TikTok is news, or political theory, or thoughtful commentary, or explanations of how thin

The problem is not that they are fooling anyone. No one thinks a woman is marrying a chimpanzee. The problem is that the videos are obviously and openly racist and being spread quite brazenly. If I have to encounter a constant barrage of sh

That's probably pretty healthy -- phones these days should comfortably last you several years. I consider folks who buy a new phone every year these days to be engaging in pretty conspicuous consumption.

The law definitely is not code, but the law could require Apple to follow the same requirements they set for others. Then the government could sue Apple (or otherwise enforce this behavior.) It's not the worst idea I've heard, t

It's interesting that 600MB can be perceived as both trivial (e.g. on a fiber connection this is a matter of seconds) and excruciating (e.g. on a rural satellite line this could be 15-20+ minutes).

I don't know that this is true. A lot of people are getting sucked into "this is my AI friend/girlfriend/boyfriend/waifu/husbando" territory. In real life, other humans are not machines you can put kindnes

I don't think that's as trivial and invulnerable as you think it is. You are talking about a key that exists on a device, but cannot be extracted from the device. It can be used to sign a high volume of data in a unique way such t

Gamepass is the only thing holding me on Windows, and in October, Windows 10 hits EoL. I think that puts a pretty clear end date on the end of my Gamepass subscription as I don't want to upgrade to a new Windows version. If folks can f

People say, "Autism is on the rise" but as an autistic person I see a site like this and go, "No, autism was always with us, we just labelled it differently in the past". I mean that lovingly.
