You can't just respond to something unrelated and say "trust in CNN is evaporating" or whatever the parent comment was going. What does that have to do with Trump's new social media thing using the more dictatorial names

My 2-cents on this as someone who owns a Peloton. Riding a bike is great but doing it for 30-60 minutes 5 times a week is a bit hard to do. We do most of our riding while our toddler naps. I certainly can't leave him alone at home to g

I could be wrong, but some of those companies are probably agriculture companies. Those 100 companies produce those emissions in response to demand. No demand for coal? No coal emissions. No demand for farting cows? No fart emissions. I kno

That's literally the case with every government-imposed rule in existence. You're asking a question that has been asked and answered 100 times. "Why seatbelts? Where does it end?" "Why can't I shoot someone? W

I personally know people who's calculus on this is literally "I am going to catch covid explicitly so that I can build immunity to covid." These people are idiots. I probably was too hasty assuming everyone in the comment ch

Fair, but you don't get to choose what you catch and it's extremely unlikely (like, < .001% in the US) that you'll catch Delta instead of Omicron. I'd for sure choose Omicron, though.

You can catch it more than once and you are contagious before you’d reasonably have the knowledge to test. Now you’ve spread it when you didn’t have to.

But to do that you first have to become infectious, right? I'm no longer being snarky, I'm curious what I'm missing in the thought process.

I mean this without hyperbole. Loseing what.cd was one of the saddest moments of my life. Losing it was on a tier below the burning of the library of alexandria, but only a single tier.

That's probably a good option for someone who writes for Vice or you and I, but for the average user that's pretty unfeasible. I think even with this knowledge, the point of the article still stands.

I doubt the person who could not identify Kanye West could also identify nearly any other musician. Do you think they'd be able to identify John Lennon?

This feels like the same argument you'd here when electric guitars became ubiquitis. Or synthasizers. Can you not create emotionally resonant music without vocals? You'd be hard pressed to find someone who doesn't think you c

> family that depends on my income to get by I doubt they depend on your income as much as they are used to a certain type of life. Do you think your family could get by with less in exchange for a happier family member?

Setting up a database takes way longer than 10 minutes. Data can be teeny tiny. Data can not be performance critical. You literally know nothing about the commenter’s application.

That’s interesting. I was going to take a stab at reading that first since I frequently use DynamoDB (Amazon product) at work.

It felt so grounded in reality that it took very little creativity to write or think about. Making 1-to-1 comparisons of things and people isn't very interesting. Such thin layers of abstraction don't add much value in media just

Are there any good "baby's first CS papers"? I read maybe 1 paper in college and have not thought about anything more than the very practical, day-to-day applications of my degree since then. If I wanted to dip my toes into r

Why does it matter that it's vanilla Javascript? I don't think this would actually fit the general definition of vanilla Javascript, but I'm more curious why it matters at all?

Isn't it funny that all of these conversations around federated data are happening on discord? I'd love it if Discord was indexed by search engines so I didn't have to fight to find that conversations that I am interested in.

> That reads to me as click bait, which gives the impression, "Mask Mandates in Schools Is Junk Science." It strictly does not do that and neither does the article beyond the headline. We'll agree to disagree.

I agree! In fact, they just did it with their 5-day quarantine recommendation. Which is why I think it's important that the facts they use to publicly justify their decision are under constant scrutiny. If they are not, the CDC's
