> UNIX-based OS goes mainstream What are you crediting Jobs with? What does this mean? It seems like your list fell apart after the first 3 concrete things you listed, the rest are just random things you like about Apple.

I thought this headline sounded overly pessimistic when seeing it after actually reading the report...

Being equal can easily discriminate against anyone because your definition of equality does not match everyone else's. So, in your case, being equal means that handicapped people aren't treated equally. What if you set your arbi

What are you gaining from removing disabled people from "everyone"? You're against protections for these people because it's not fair to you? Ever consider that your way is not fair to them and potentially any other arbi

In my experience, in-house hosted products have had much more frequent outages than the SAAS alternatives. Then when there is an outage, it's down for hours instead of minutes.

I don't like the trend of putting the environmental onus on consumers. If you want to stop single use plastic then ban companies from producing it.

The simplest explanation is that it's 'acceptable' to be trans in 2019. Plastic didn't make people gay, but the gay population increased in the mid to late 1900s just as the trans population is increasing now. There are

Couldn't we have just had a post about sex without making jokes or disparaging remarks about women?

What's up with the arbitrary scrutiny placed on sex? Where's proof that every other consumer electronic is good for anything?

Are you implying that their actions cannot be gender biased?

This logic doesn't give facebook a free pass to allow bullying to take place on their platforms.

Not all opinions are equal and there's no reason to treat them as such.

I think the point was to cite an opposing case where massive corporations are having issues with production as well.

It's pretty disgusting that you knew that this was a gap in policy, had been considering it for some time, and ultimately decided to run with it anyway and even took measures to obfuscate the truth. What's the point in pretending

I was just going by the trailer, which I'd imagine the Wikipedia page is citing, that references the azure AI and satellite data towards the beginning of the video.

I'm guessing the "AI" was used in the geometry mapping from the sat data they used for their region maps.

Continuing to allow businesses to take out loans against the environment is a net negative for society as a whole if those loans are never expected to be repaid. There are few industries that break down binary "free market or bust&quot

Wow, thanks for pointing that out, I missed it on my once-over.

It's not as disastrous as this person makes it seem. It's a rest call you can use to have slackbot do or say whatever you want for integration purposes. You can customize the name of the bot as well as its icon, which would allo

I find the XXTRA flaming hot cheetos to be particularly hot. I'm the type of person that finds most "hot" things to be rather mild, but these I have to pace myself with.

WSL2 is dependent on hyper-v, though.

It's not hard to turn that into a situation where it can work against you. What if it were your child's baseball bat? You can say that's what it's for but then what if the cop asks you if you'd use it for self defen

Right, sure. I don't think that's a worthwhile comment on a discussion about terrorism, though.

Sure, and I wouldn't want to be. Judiciously, though, I do not consider these people to be innocent just because they didn't pull the trigger. The number of deaths on this community's hands is non-zero, despite any pedantry s

I personally find this view strange. I think there's tremendous risk in breeding a community that promotes this behavior to a degree that it's difficult to discern whether or not someone is _actually_ talking about shooting dozen

This is similar to a conversation I had with my wife about inner dialog. I had always considered that one's inner dialog was literally conscious thought until I learned that some don't have that at all.
