And the ones that didn't make that choice are unwilling to change things because deep down they know violence (in the short term) is the only thing that can stop the car going over the cliff. You’re fearmongering in an attempt to inc

Same. Unfortunately, I don't have four years to get a teaching degree, let alone a master's degree, let alone $50,000 to pay for one.

The alternative is that we have a DNS-style lookup of every city on earth which contains what each city has chosen for their daylight hours. You’d run into many more boundary-centric issues than with our columnar approach.

Thanks for having the balls to say this. It’s a terrible video game but a masterpiece of a story. In fairness, it was far from the only game of its time where not knowing things about the game could cause you to kids large swaths of it.

+1 for that book. I’m surprised no one has yet tried to work it into a movie or at least a made-for-TV movie.

Pretty easy to block malevolence. Just permaban advertisers that misuse the tools. It's not like you'll struggle to collect evidence on their misdeeds.

We do ban alcohol because of that though. Maybe not a total ban but we regulate the hell out of it. You can’t even drink until 21 and then you can only drink in certain areas and you’re cut off once you show signs of intoxication.

…and ensure online streaming services make meaningful contributions to Canadian and Indigenous content. Not loving that phrasing. The only reason you’d be this opaque is because you want to hide your intentions.

It’s a bad grocery store and an equally mediocre pharmacy. HEB does both better, faster, and cheaper.

It’s not that easy to just know how parenting is going to work the first time around. You can be lactating prior to delivery and then dry up for no reason. Even worse, your baby can decide not to latch or be tongue-tied. If your husband i

Many went without masks. Some had water spurting from their machines, but others had nothing to tamp down the powder rising in the air. Does OSHA not require masks in these cases?

What alternatives are there to Make? Popular C/C++ alternative build systems are SCons, CMake, Bazel, and Ninja. IMHO just bite the bullet and start with CMake. Make is such a pain to learn and is instantly useless once you realize y

"What are they going to do? Move to Godot?" I'm a casual observer in this space. Is Unreal not a viable alternative?

Raising prices is expected and literally every company does it, within reason. Increasing ad time, censoring shows, and forcing politics all thoroughly erode trust over time.

just fundamentally restructure your government and undertake decades-long construction projects! That doesn't help the people in the 20-year interim before those changes are made. God forbid wealth redistribution doesn't actuall

Does company trust mean nothing anymore? Once you lose trust, you lose consumers, even if you reverse the trust-losing decision. Look at Bud Light - they still haven't (and may never) recover.

The commute is what killed me. Doing what is essentially unpaid work to get to/from work seems pretty unfair when you’re losing potentially an hour each day doing it. I have to imagine companies would quit this RTO nonsense if they wer

It’s expensive and if you have kids, you’re potentially unfit to be a parent for 1-3 hours which your partner may find off-putting.

That was kind of my takeaway from this as well. They're no longer fetuses and these aren't wombs in any sense of the word. If these are wombs then everything else we currently use to promote the health of preterm births in the NIC

How about this: most code has hard chunks or even sections that can be nearly impossible to figure out without a significant time investment. We can skip the intermediate steps and just move straight to a document that explains the architec

It’s mostly likely an application of the Door in the Face technique where one makes a huge ask followed by a smaller, more well-received ask after the first is rejected. Here, they put forward an unreasonable demand. Later, once the trollin
