I don't really see amoralists creating laws to punish moral people. Generally people who don't like morals prefer ethical frameworks. But, I do agree that a lot of speech today has moral overtones, and that itself is wrong.

You actually didn't address why I said I liked cars, which is for road trips. My independence is really another. My point here, is rather than arguing for no cars , I argue for a society that balances both equally. I don't really

Looking through your comment history, it's filled with snide remarks and nothing of any real informational value. Maybe looking through peoples comments on isolated threads doesn't do what you think it does? Unless you think snide

I like being able to walk my city (I live in San Jose) but I can't imagine not having a car. Being able to take road trips to things like festivals where I don't have to pay incredible baggage fees or sit on a train without wifi

Moralism is a powerful thing and American moralism is far from dead. I think a lot of folks in America probably fancy themselves as being free from these chains, but subconsciously I think the chains of moralism are fairly deep and strong.

I had a similar experience getting out of the military. I had a known back injury, but nobody could tell why it was manifesting the way it was. I eventually ended up at a sleep doctor because I refused to be put on opioids but could not sle

I was leaving the house alone by 5 and 6. I'd go hours in the local forest, down by the lake, through the neighborhood, and to the city. My mom made sure I understood landmarks and what places that could help me looked like. Of all the

I agree, I was just putting in plaintext what I've heard others say over the years when I complained about living in a state where I was paid nearly a third of what people doing my same job in SF made. I think those kinds of comments a

I haven't had to do a chargeback, but it's the only reason I have a credit card. Visa just flushed all their value, in my eyes, down the toilet. Reward programs and fancy priority lines don't mean squat if I can't levera

ehhh, that's not what I said, and I find it a bit odd that you immediately reached for calling me a "groomer". Let me try to be a little more clear: If you're showing up to a conversation that has no relation to the issu

Depends on the context that it's brought up in. If you're just interjecting that fact, then yeah, I could see that being perceived as islamaphobia. That view is consistent, when a person from gender x is expressing their experienc

I think people's experiences will vary with tools like this due to company policy. For instance, your company allows you to make decisions about whether a vulnerability pertains to you, but many don't. I think that's how thes

Yes, at least one of the tables explicitly mentions that the statistics they use cover pedestrian deaths and the whole page is built using that single data set.

My plan was to work for really large companies with a high salary for ten years and then move on to smaller ones. I made this because where I'm from, software engineers don't make close to what they do at large firms and people we

As I said, it probably has to do more with our aggregate personal connection to animals in a given culture, because that will influence how we perceive their intelligence. If you've read the studies I did, they're not very good. F

Animals that are both higher intelligence in our perception and closer to us day to day will fall into the category of disgust, imo. For instance, I've had dogs my whole life. They're pretty deep creatures with emotions, intellige

There's an old paper on that networking, by design, is not reliable or efficient - which is more cogent than ever in large scale distributed systems. What Comcast would cite would likely be that, so I doubt it would reveal the quiet pa

I'll second that the best way to get better is to be a practitioner. Part of the reason that there's not more material on systems design is because the way we design systems is highly dependent on core systems that pre-exist a new
