Somehow all I can think of here is Business Secrets of the Pharoahs, from the comedy Peep Show, which begins: > The first thing to note when discussing the business secrets of the Pharaohs is an acknowledgement that their era was so comp

I totally agree. My objection is more to things like "my opinions are as good as science because science is all just made up too."

I agree, but how do you measure that though? Or prove that it isn’t an incredible thing regardless of if it was given to you by god?

Science and technology would not be able to produce concrete things if understanding it was practically beyond 99.999% of people or if it was remotely nearly as fundamentally corrupt as you are describing.

What is the (sometimes) clear and measurable evidence of what god has done for someone?

Some (most even that is relevant day to day?) is quite easy to validate and yet we still have flat-Earthers.

Yes, and my response is that the average person doesn’t rationally need to intellectually revalidate every scientific and technological fact from first principles because we are surrounded by overwhelming evidence, and that highlighting tha

This idea that science and technology is just another random religion is so frustrating, but I encounter it online way more often than I would expect. I don’t need to personally review and understand the details of why electricity and the i

The typeface was familiar to me as a child even before Comic Sans came out as it is based on a lot of the writing in comic strips.

It feels like there is a really big, unexplained jump from the principles provided to the strategies that are shared.

Really interesting content, but its almost even more amazing how many ads they were able to squeeze in there at least on mobile.

Devices are much more portable since the 90s and are likely to change networks frequently.

I have something like PTSD from a similar situation.

Funny, for me not shipping is a source of anxiety and I get paralyzed at the getting started point.

Nice to see my town mentioned! I hope we remove even more of the current traffic roads in the center, it is great.

Do you have animations generated from this? I would love to see rotations in motion. I feel like there is some game that could be created from needing to manipulate objects in this space.

That is a really interesting distinction. I have had a couple hobbies that ended up being “buy all the things as if you were going to do this hobby” more than actually enjoying the hobby, and they were spectacularly unfulfilling in the end.

I have proposed doing it during work hours and got a positive response.

I don’t think we need to do anything of the sort. Companies will sort themselves into all remote/all office/hybrid before “lets make everyone moderately miserable equally” becomes the mandated approach for everyone.

There is this problem where: 1. A situation becomes political, and all kinds of claims are made by demagogues without evidence in order to score points, based on whatever they would like to be true. 2. There is lots of arguing, and subtle p

March 2020, but even that seems quite late for a term that must have peaked in 2005.

Slides are terrible in most situations. I have found it is better to edit a document together, if you need to share your screen at all. Then the source of truth is updated automatically as the meeting outcome and there isn’t a proliferation

I can imagine a drunk person reacting as described, but mainly because drunk people are unpredictable. I think otherwise though it you smile a lot for no reason people will think you are a little foolish or loony, but it isn’t dangerous. I

What a great game. A modern version that kept the simple and pvp nature of the original game would be cool.

Check out the whole article at the link, it contains more and goes into that. It is a good one.

Is this satire or a parody of something? I sincerely can’t tell.

Wow, what a nightmare! I remember a project or two like that in my career that I wish I could go advise my younger self to avoid. I have been around long enough to remember when people bore this sort or abuse as a mark of pride almost, like

Very cool. I am definitely going to give this a try, it is something I have always wanted to learn.
