What is information and what is spam really? Both relatibe to humans' interpretation. Isn't it a bit egoistical to call such a hypothetical state of the universe "dead" just because there isn't anything of interest

Which leads to the conclusion that some form of god exists. The only "logical" explanation if you accept the universe had a beginning. But then you are introducing another paradox. When we refer to the universe we mean "every

For theories dismissing an infinitely old universe, here is the true paradox: How could the universe have a beginning? How did you get everything out of nothing?

I just hate these overgeneralized titles trying to inject drama where there is none. Literally got a quote from a single guy and made up a title portraying all developers aligning with that statement. Give insight into the oppisite view

The title shows a huge lack of understanding of how human knowledge works. Never was "everything wrong" with contemporary theories on any field. If existing (applied) theories were 100% wrong then people wouldn't use them at

I can see what people find annoying about cypress but to me, it's "cleverness" and tight browser integression provides such a much better experience than anything else I've used. It is not perfect but I think they have t

I explained the logic: By having tooling and tests it place, I am protected against gotchas and I haven't ever encountered a problem. Thus, i do not advocate you must ommit semicolons. I am saying "it doesn't matter what yo

I used to be on the "always use semicolons" side of this argument. Having shipped multiple projects using both methods my verdict is clear: It doesn't matter. Why it doesn't matter you ask? Because 1) I am enforcing eith

Have used both manjaro and ubuntu. Have used an nvidia gtx 770 and an amd apu on ryzen 4700. I'd say I've had a few issues with both, majority of problems can be resolved with a days worth of tinkering. Glad to have done that, hav

Apologies, my mind completely erased that for some reason. Although this detail is false the validity of my point still stands. The creator's sponsor doesn't have anything to do with the action youtube has taken nor with the conte

Again, I appreciate the existence of others. Do we have any knowledge of them doing what CIA has? Have they organized dozens of coups on the other side of the globe or something?

Interesting article. I think black and white is never a good rule, so although I would side on the conflict-theory perspective it would be very naive of me to claim that incorrect analysis doesn't ever contribute to dissinformation. Sa

That is very interesting. Can you provide a couple resources?

I like the idea, but the author doesn't seem to care enough for the root cause of dissinformation. That is, at it's core, the existence of conflicting interests. Because if literally everyone was on the same page, there wouldn&#x2

Asking out of curiosiry. Do you have an contemporary actors in mind that operate on the same level as CIA? Because it seems to me like there is much concern about other "conpetitors", but I do not know of any. Not to be missinterp

Agreed. Also, there is a spectrum between extreme skeptisism vs not questioning at all For instance, getting back to the egg example, questioning what is the best way way to boil the egg can reveal to you a few known unconventional methods.

Accept the duality of your human nature. You think as a collective and as an individual at the same time. It's a matter of budget. When you do things that don't matter too much to you, you are damn happy to think exactly like the

Am I the only one who thinks this is a terrible name to help a product spread? I can't even imagine myself saying "I am using mmhmm for this effect" to my colleagues. They would be like "what was that you said?"

This deserves to be heard. I will also add to this, since it is known we can use addons to disable tracking and fingerprinting but addons can themselves be used for fingerprinting, why don't we get a feature on firefox (or even one mor

Even those people have specific salary ranges. They still are commodities or as the corp-speak put it: "assets". More expensive ones, for sure, but still the same rules apply. My living cost will be a hugr factor of my salary even
