This is how Chinese citizens in China react if you ask them about it: https://vimeo.com/44078865 Do you think Americans would react that way if they were asked about the Kent massacre?

I don't get why that would be wrong. If law enforcement asked Binance about my account, of course I would want to know, and would choose an exchange that does tell me vs. one that doesn't tell me. Maybe it's illegal, but then

Your thesis is true, but we should keep in mind that outrage almost always comes from a perceived injuste in the world. We have always and will always disagree about political issues. Issues that from our subjective appreciation are destroy

> Mac notebooks have a camera indicator light to let you know when the camera is on. That's great, but we'll need the electronic schematics and the OS source code to trust that.

In the same vein that "hate speech" means "political opinions we disagree with", "animal cruelty" really means "animal cruelty towards animals we don't like for reasons we don't like"

I much prefer Facebook's relatively laissez faire approach instead of Twitter's politically biased approach where hateful things are allowed as long as they are from the left side of the political spectrum. Drawing the line on wha

I use Linux everyday, and it's a UX disaster. I have tried Gnome, Xfce, Cinnamon, KDE, I like none of them. The only DE that I somewhat liked (Unity) was discontinued. Linux sucks, but I use it becuase it sucks less than windows, for p

2. In the specific case of the College Board, yes. Keep in mind that maybe the license fee is based on number of institutions and every student would end up indirectly paying for the license. But also think about independent educational ins

Using HEIC apparently [1][2] requires a license and is patent encumbered[3], so I actually blame Apple for using a closed format by default. [1] https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/97036 [2] https://ne

At this point, each time I read "ethics" I think of someone proselytizing their political ideology in the most obnoxious way possible. I do have ethics, they're the product of my own analysis and are consistent with my world

As someone who uses Linux as their main OS, I can tell you a few: 1. Ugly UIs: Of all the distros I've tried, the only one that doesn't make me wanna gouge my eyes out is Ubuntu. Most Linux users seem to have accustomed to ugly UI

When mainstream media has been pushing pernicious narratives and outright lies for many years, I see why people would be skeptic about their claims. Unfortunately, most people don't have the means (technical knowledge, time) to appropr

What are these "better languages" you speak of? Because I've been looking for a good C replacement but to no avail. C++, D, Nim, Go, Rust, Zig, Odin, etc; I've looked into them but none convinced me.

It also penalizes non-fathers because employers assume the possibility of you having children, and that has an effect on your pay, even if you never have children. As a non-father, you have no way to say "I don't want paternity le
