> One cannot claim that both A) masks are "not effective at stopping COVID" and B) "people in hospitals needed them more than the average citizen". It's a laughably obvious contradiction. It's not a complete

What makes you think that your experience is the typical one? I've had these problems as well and so have a lot of people I've talked too. Obviously that's just more anecdotes and doesn't prove anything but neither does

I found this reply to be especially interesting: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/19/1309 > I also have another concern from a legal standpoint I'd rather not review the ioctl part of this. I'd

So you're from a country where tipping isn't so engrained or important. Here in the US tipping is the main way service workers make money. Most base wages are simply untenable. Now, I'm not saying I like that, in fact I hate

What makes you think it's an aversion to testing? It seems to me more just general incompetence and slow response that caused the testing crisis in the US.

The first four utils were added 7+ years ago: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/commit/9653ed81a2fbf393f... This has been developed for a while. You're looking at the official GitHub releases which doe

You're really twisting words here. No that is not what is happening. I never agreed to any exchange. I should be able to tweet at Disney with that hashtag and not agree to their ToS. Nothing about a hashtag implies consent. It is not

While I agree with your point, and this doesn't change that, saying most of this country is rural is misleading. Rural areas cover 97% of the nation’s land area but only contain 19.3% of the population (about 60 million people). And o

I just wanted to add that SMR drives' performance is a bit more nuanced than you described. In most SMR drives, there is a PMR portion allocated as a cache. I've read the cache is usually in the range of 20-50G, depending on the s

Different perspectives help you grow. I can't imagine not getting feedback. We aren't ridiculed about code structure but given feedback that you can take, or not, with a discussion. It seems pretty problematic that getting feedbac

I'd say a big part of that is just you're more aware that your doing it. I bet the total count is similar.

We don't have much research on the subject yet so we really don't know harmful they are. I'd say it's pretty fair to say they are better than cigarettes but a big step to call them largely harmless. Your still running mo

It's the same argument people have for uniforms in school. It seems logical I just wish there were some studies that confirmed the results, though it seems hard to quantify.

I can't speak for all "other" languages but Ruby made the change years ago from 1.8 to 1.9. Ruby calls them hashes but they're standard maps. Obviously Ruby and Python are very similar but I think the point stands.

Not all software has the same level of criticalness. The difference between a bug in an airplane vs one in a game or entertainment software is gigantic. Sometimes it really is more important to get the software out quicker vs it being bug f

It's not? That's exactly how I've been interpreting it. Objectively, how is the Safari version better? Other than subjective design.

Do you not trust anything on Wikipedia? Of course you can't ascertain 100% whether a comment is true or not but going around saying everything is a lie because Ad companies lie to you doesn't seem very helpful. OP wasn't say

Personally, I don't think the Firefox version looks any worse than the Safari version, they're just different. It comes down to preference. Just like you saying it's the ugliest tab bar which I very much disagree with.

The person you responded to specifically explained that. It's made to look non-native on purpose so that users don't think a pop-up, phishing, asking for their password, is a native system prompt. Safari did the same thing. It&#x

In this case it totally is. Your free to not use 23andMe if you don't consent. I do think, however, it shouldn't be buried in the EULA but communicated clearly.

I'm not sure why you are stating these things like they are facts. These are still just allegations that Apple has put forth. > He started the company to sell tech he developed at Apple, back to Apple. If this is so clear cut, Appl

I don't understand. Are citizens of countries that do bad things not allowed to point out issues in other countries as well? I'm more than aware of, at least some of, the bad things the US has done and in some cases is still doing

I’m guessing OP was aware of this but was more questioning whether we know this was because of lead exposure or just the fact the school system isn’t good. It seems it would be hard to separate the two. Like was said: there are plenty of ci

I backed up 11TB. As long as we are outliers I don't think it's an issue. I can't imagine what would happen if everyone started downloading all the media they watch, though. Hopefully streaming continues to be realistic in th
