Your son probably needs therapy if he's this terrified of a non-life-threatening incident that is quite rare more than the incidence of death from covid-19. it was never about being afraid, it was about taking part in society and helpi

> “all this for…” — you’re employing someone for 40% a full time duration. of course you need to do the right thing, ensure they get the right wage, if you need to pay benefis, etc. this is such a privileged position and you think you sh

pretty weird take, am neurodivergent and recognise showing up for my role is important for opportunity. nobody is living in poverty bc FAANG promote more people who are f2f, that’s silly. not every role is for everyone

funnily enough, elon himself gives me such great shame. he perpetuates an us vs them mentality with his personal beliefs, boosts racists, fascists, and antisemites, and uses his loudspeaker to attack minorities almost every day. he has put

what? that’s just shy of 32k a month. enough to save for all your retirement, pay a mortgage, support a family, go on holiday, do whatever you want. and if this supposed dev did $999,999 he’d only pay 15%. hardly anything left? i made less

people commit crimes with: cars, money, public transit, restaurants, food, bathrooms, roads, … why don’t we get rid of all that? we don’t remove all rights to privacy for people in their homes because criminals use homes too. tech should be

leetcode interviews and intense algorithmic problems for roles which don’t require such acumen can definitely be ageist the pronoun issue is your own, however, and speaks nothing to the character of colleagues who may be genderqueer. they a

why buy one if you saw the wwdc vids and already believe apple is locking you out of… their own product? sounds like an excuse to be on the hating apple train

said OS underpinned iOS/iPadOS/VisionOS/tvOS etc., has more users than linux, and is the only other major OS that consumers think of besides windows. it's also hugely relevant for sw dev. i don't quite get what this

translation doesn’t always carry the same weight. look at the bible— entire sentences that have different meanings or subtext. in one language, a verb may mean “to do something as your responsibility” and in a translation it may simply be “

small languages have also died out because of colonialism, national identity laws, and a host of other factors. i agree, though, that computing could be sooo great for these languages if we moved past weatern paradigms

have you heard of licensing for chip technologies? maybe from qualcomm? the reason apple doesnt pay carriers is that the market has changed and handset makers have more power. also phones work on wifi too ;)

this analogy doesnt work because it’s not at all even in the same realm of utility or function. the reality, as you say, is that development and operation of services and APIs isnt free, and you are not entitled to sell your apps to apple’s
