I corrected my math. It's 93000 schools. One in 2500 kids will be at school during a shooting. That's 2500-${dead} that will likely suffer from PTSD. Know what people with PTSD often do? Hint: rhymes with suicide. Phones in scho

Is this the "math" you're referring to? > I have a friend who is a high school principal and as the article describes, far more young people are harmed (up to and including suicide) by phones than guns. The sexting, consta

You're not completely wrong but you're heading that way. Almost every public and private school in the country does shooter drills now. Kids who haven't been through a school shooting suffer PTSD. They are genuinely afraid th

School shootings are not like plane crashes, they are like plane hijackings by suicidal terrorists. (Because that's what they are.) There are now kids who have loved through two school shootings. You're downplaying this significa

In the increasingly likely event that there's a school shooting, I want my kid to be able to call the police and me. I can't fathom an American parent not wanting their kid to have the ability to send an SOS any more.

And the "delete account" functionality appears to not work. That's also very disappointing.

No Linux support. How very disappointing.

You're missing a valuable difference: consent. If there are people being forced to compete the same way we force animals, that should be shut down too.

A similar thing can be said about those who see certain ideas as dogmatic. They're so resistant to hearing what the categorize as dogmatic thinking, they often can't hear good ideas. User stories are great, when they make sense an

I do not need this. At all. Not one bit. Not for a second. It would be foolish of me to spend money on this. Two, please! Very cool.

Really? We had the opposite experience. We got the impression that sales loves to sell against their cloud. Probably commission related.

At my last org, we spent hundreds on confluent and then they did a pricing adjustment and our bill went up 4x. No exaggeration. We moves from kinesis to confluent because it was cheaper. After that, we moved back to save money.

This is brilliant! I've kicked around the idea but I've never taken the time to figure out the details. Thank you! I have so many devices lying around and some aren't even fit for women's shelters.

I adjust my speech patterns based on the audience. I've done it since I was a kid. Different groups of friends speak differently and convergence ensured I wouldn't stick out as weird. It wasn't an entirely conscious decision

This. I have written a number of documents recently that are AI assisted but definitely my own work. I use the LLM to help me cross reference topics, clean up some of the language, improve the flow and prepare for the potential follow-up di

Hold on there bud, please don't speak for all of us. I'm quite confident that I and most people, even some other men, do not share your risk profile. I prefer to just be a decent person.

Very well stated. It's not that we have to or need to conduct ourselves like we're being watched, we should just be decent human beings because we should be. I don't have to worry about the sexist or racist or bigoted emails

I have a "greenfield" scenario I ask SRE candidates. I give them unlimited time, resources and money to build whatever systems they want to ensure that code is production ready before it goes to prod. The only constraint is that t

While I wouldn't pay for YT either, they do have serious infrastructure costs so it's not quite as you describe.

General usability. DataDog is intuitive and easy. Grafana is rough and requires a solid understanding of statistics and data analytics. The bar for using it is pretty high, so most engineers I know push it to someone else, which means there

Technically suicide is a crime and shooting yourself with a gun is a violent act, so... Seems about right

What you're saying, in the specific and the broad sense (beyond the scope of this conversation) is controversial. You're making a very bold claim. Can you share the data? Collective mental health across a single geography would b

Sorry, I thought we were talking about mass shootings.

I'm confident it's white men with a history of misogyny and access to guns. The data supports that too. We love screaming about the one offs but that's smoke and mirrors.

Don't forget to view the trend lines. Don't go any place where they're headed up. Checks data... that means... No to America.

At some point we'll be saturated enough for that "Polite Society" we've been promised by being an "Armed Society" will kick in and we're all gonna feel pretty dumb. Any day now. Any day. /s

Do you have evidence for that because psychologists disagree with you. But let's pretend they don't. I'm all for universal mental health care. How does that help? What can we do to curtail gun violence, if we take the stance
