Great. Now onto drugs next. That's the main way to reduce violence, get addicts help, and save a ton of money on wasteful police resources.

Oh nice. Continuing America's tradition of slavery and forced labor regardless of laws. And of course judges and the government are involved. These people should all be thrown off high platforms or tall trees. Without any harnesses, ro

Yes. I'm saying that you should default to assuming malice because in most human endeavors and motives it's the primary factor. Even stupid people can and are evil. The motives I list above cover probably over 90% of human actions

The only conclusion is that the NSA simply cannot be trusted in the future. I'm sure our illogical lawmakers will not draw it, but this is clearly another case of being told this program was crucial and people's rights needed to b

Except the quote is generally wrong when it comes to issues of profit. It's simply backwards. People are fucking evil when it comes to money, profits, power, status, pleasure, and generally getting ahead of others. Considering those ar

Yup. I did a similar assignment although much shorter. The company then decided not to hire anyone. Never gave feedback or even looked at it. Since they I won't do this type of shit anymore unpaid. If they pay, we'll see.

I wonder if you will immediately get notified of your account closure in person when returning things in a way Amazon doesn't like or will they just send you an email after the fact?

Of course. This is the least controversial opinion out there and it borders on fact. Anyone who claims otherwise is an idiot or an exploiter. There's simply no substitute for sleep in any discipline or in life in general. It simply doe

Of course they do. This has been part of the culture for generations. It's an ongoing delusion that fuels the inequality and lack of social services and keeps most people poor while the rich get richer. It's exactly this kind of d

If pretty much every single implementation of OO languages misunderstood Kay that just means Kay either didn't explain himself well or OO as he intended it is so easy to misunderstand it's almost useless as a programming paradigm.

I've been promised a job by the CEO after all the interviews and he reneged a few days later. Companies lie all the time like that. At least I got a nice trip to SF out of it, but I expect this to happen. I always set salary expectatio

It seems like our free market is working exactly as intended. It sorted itself out just like its proponents said it would. Sure most people have no broadband or are locked in with a monopolistic provider, but it was left to its own devices

Only idiots invoke "Hanlon's Razor" not jokingly. It's such an incredibly shallow and stupid thought indeed. I like the way you put it: "thought terminating." That's what stupid people generally prefer to

Apple makes shit hardware now and has for a few years. The Apple of old is gone. People need to accept that. The keyboard is shit. The trackpad is too big. And the screen has issues too. Desktop/laptop software, other than OS X, has al

Don't attribute to stupidity what can be attributed to malice. No, I didn't get that backwards.

Pelosi is a moron who doesn't even know how the current insurance system works. Of course people lose their insurance. And ACA insurance often doesn't cover the same things as the employer-based insurance. If people need to get on

"We can choose to become a retirement community like Europe" Sounds pretty fucking amazing to me. How do we choose to do this? The more like Europe we become, the better life will be for millions of people. The path seems to be to

Yup. It should be illegal for non US residents to buy residential property in the US, especially in areas of high demand like the West Coast cities. Vancouver, BC implemented a tax which is somewhat helpful but clearly not enough. Land is a

Those who can stick with a 996 are either stupid or desperate (I assume mostly desperate with enough stupid sprinkled in to keep this going). This idea of working your life away for a piece of shit like Ma needs to die. The culture in such

Productivity is irrelevant if quality is low and generally, developers who don't use proper tools produce low quality code. It might be small issues, but details matter. Wrong or missing docblocks, bad formatting, no linting, unused va

British people usually have no problem with my name. I guess my issue is that people don't even make an effort. It's one thing to Americanize the name when you've never heard it pronounced correctly, it's another to cont

The author should learn how to torrent and stop complaining. After all, he already purchased a license for the content so we're simply talking about getting a backup copy that can work on all his hardware which is perfectly legal.

I used a 4k 40" monitor for a few years and now I'm back to the 27" 1440p Apple thunderbolt display that I had before. I have another 27" like that I could use but don't. The 40" gave me rsi and I spent a lot o

Yeah seriously. Almost every single American mispronounces my name even after I say it multiple times. Hell, they mispronounce common, one syllable American names like "Lou" more than half the time. When I tell them my name is lik

This is the reason not to ever use any of these scummy companies. What next? Should I sign over the rights to my DNA to them too so they can charge me for cell division and reproduction? Monsanto already does this. Fuck these people and the
