Since when was DJ David Guetta a reactionary? (Yes, I read your comment history. I was tryinna figure out if you were in fact that guy and saw a bunch of conspiracy-ass right wing misinformation.)

I don’t like this interviewer’s tone, at all. It was like… confrontational but in a teenage way.

Yeah, for sure. That’s why I vote for candidates that refuse PAC money from crypto and otherwise. This goof is lazily and without evidence asserting that there exists no good option. I dunno if they wanna just be smug or if they’re actively

Sure but like… he’s just some fucking guy on a tech comment thread (as are we all). You don’t think the professional bribe guys know a thing or two about doing bribes? Nah. The people who won wouldn’t take their money. It had to be those lo

The article suggests something like 90% of their spend was intended to change results. Can you help me understand your comment? I don’t get it.

People who are not aware of a topic are not lacking courage for not engaging in it. Being damned without awareness of salvation is more of a St. Augustine thing. And Kant said my ancestors were less than human, so fuck him.

Hey maybe I’m wrong, overthinking it. Maybe the problem is that simple. Maybe you can only see things simply. There’s simply no way to tell.

This is as good an argument as saying that Americans with unhealthy diets bear sole responsibility, ignoring the massive corporate efforts to convince them of the healthfulness of highly processed foods. While, obviously, individuals have u

If I were to hear about it and google it, I’d first search “ink” and then admonish myself for the useless search. If I then searched “ink web” I’d get the React thing. I am not invested in this project. I might stop there. If I search “ink

It depends. Are the inputs to the algorithm themselves discriminatory? If so, then yes that would be appropriate. But that is a different conversation. They determined the passenger may be unsafe and did nothing. Mind you, these companies w

They could not be held accountable to warn her if they had not done the analysis. They did. Their organizational conclusion was that it was potentially an unsafe trip. Shit, they could have just cancelled the ride dynamically and re-assigne

I live in a Chicago neighborhood where these are in use. They have very bright lights, actually blinding you as you approach one at night. They move much faster than is appropriate on a sidewalk. They position themselves in the middle of th

No, I’m not. They asked for feedback and specifically called out their pricing strategy. It’s a critical part of launching a product, it merits thought. You just don’t know enough to recognize its importance.

Presale pricing is weird, or at least unclear. I am totally fine with pricing strategies where you buy a perpetual license for the current major version only but this seems like less than that. It appears that for $10 we can have something

Some stores do not welcome Instacart or Postmates shoppers. You can shop there. You can shop with your phone out, scanning every item to price match, something that some bookstores frown on, for example. Third party services cannot send emp
