I live in the real world where we have conversations and attempt to convince people and convey information. If we are digging into the bedrock of "can a thought exist" then you are not worth talking to.

"Seems designed" We don't believe things because they seem a certain way. You need to prove it is designed. And even if something is designed, how does that drag along the 2000 years of baggage associated with the popular rel

A lot of religion is an openly corrupt parody of itself. Joel Osteen, Pat Robertson, Falwell Jr. All of the scandals with the catholic priests and the subsequent cover-up. The catholic church and their genocide of indigenous cultures. The s

This argument is incoherent. I can prove that institutional racism exists and patriarchy exist in modern society. The same cannot be said for a god.

The carts and games are way more valuable than the consoles themselves, which were mass produced over many generations.

I grew up in a rural town around 4 hours from St. Lois. I was MISERABLE. I HATED IT AS A KID! A short list of things I disliked: - Completely car dependent as a kid. If my parents didn't give me a ride I wasn't doing anything. Bic

This is just not true. Everyone is talking about the homeless problem all the time. NOBODY is happy about the homeless situation in our major cities. I don't know a single city, liberal, moderate, or conservative, that has solved it. I

I also think turning our schools into jails for young people doesn't help. It was dystopic during my time in school and it has somehow gotten even worse. Most schools at this point are also running on fumes. It is constant triage and r

Lol I came here to say this. For many people, there is no comfort. For many people there is no hope for a future. 99% of Americans may be running on fumes, but the 1% are running on plutonium.

Hour and a half total round trip? Almost certainly more including traffic and navigating the city? Plus having to drive yourself ( or public transit) instead of a cab? How often are you actually making that trip? At that point you aren&#x27

It just grinds my gears. It is such a non-solution to the problem. Basically "if you don't like it leave." and it just muddies the water around discussions about affordability of housing. Move away from your friends and famil

So sick of seeing this. I grew up in rural Illinois, first 20 years of my life. Also spent 10 years in Chicago proper. 40 miles outside of Chicago is the middle of nowhere. It is not a substitute for living in a city. I do not see the draw

This dude is embodiment of why we created agile. What a childish way to look at engineering. Product: "What are you working on?" Engineering: "That is up to you. What is important? The answer can't be everything." P

I didn't use secrets because it is a prototype, and I need to explicitly give RUNs access to secret values, and I got sick of the boilerplate.

Yeah, that was what I was doing in the prototype stage. But then I thought "why do we need two task runners? " and ended up just going with task files. They sell it as a make replacement. Bazel constantly says "you don't

I tried using Earthly, great product. Unfortunately, we rejected it at our organization due to how verbose the commands are. I want my users to be able to say `earthly plan-stage` for a terraform repo, and for it to work. But you cannot. Yo

How often is information like: "What is the best quality X for this price point" evergreen to the point it is even worth writing down? And the entire point of the discussion is that astro-turfing has papered over everything useful

For me, Discord is the new reddit. When I want information about a product, I join the discord forum associated with that hobby and I ask for recommendations. Since Discord is a chat service like IRC, I get replies from humans instead of sh

I've had the same experience. Noobs are cheap but they write noob code. They can be useful if lead by a good senior engineer, but usually when companies start getting cheap, the senior engineers are already half-way out the door. This

Billionaires are toxic to democracy. How are we supposed to stand up to these people? They can out-spend everyone to buy all the news organizations they want, and then pay them to pump out propaganda. While we are arguing about pronouns the

I say this as a pretty leftist person: I also want free stuff. But I am an adult who understands that our roads, cars, and congestion cost money and it needs to be addressed.

I have heard this argument before, but there is an easy work-around: low-income people can request an exemption and if they meet the requirements they will be exempt from the taxes. Though honestly, at the end of the day, there are large co

I find it interesting that the traffic we experience every day is also what is causing the issues with supply chains. I feel that it is glossed over. Nobody talks about the larger effects of the traffic in US cities beyond: "You sit in
