People are still creating massive amounts of cool content, it’s just really hard to find. I play blood bowl, I care a lot about the statistics, and I’ve searched a lot on the topic over the past few years. The best result I could find conce

The best way is to use the Socratic method, if you have a lot of time. If you throw enough wilful ignorance, compliments, kindness, genuine interest and an endless amount of questions at someone, you’ll eventually get them arguing with them

I read about homeopaths on arstechnica the other day and I have to say that it shock me. How did we ever get to a society where people are injecting mercury to fight diseases? The worst part about it is that some of these people are the sam

You can answer no to that and still be GDPR compliant. You’re allowed to save personal information that is critical to your business. People can’t buy stuff from you and demand you have their payment data deleted before you charge them, or

The thing about working on yourself is that it’s actually work. Reading an article, or a book on behaviour, self-improvement and what else doesn’t actually change you any more than reading Harry Potter does. It’s the years of applying Zen B

From an American perspective, sure, but in a lot of countries we ask ourselves if letting these companies operate freely is a benefit for our society. I can see why moving money from Facebook to local news media would benefit Australia, and

We have international human rights, we could enforce companies to follow those guidelines everywhere if they want to do business on our own countries. Fact is that the US government puts money over the very human rights it’s supposed to bel

I’m not American, but isn’t the police about the only people you should ever trust (if any) with facial-recognition technology? If you can’t trust your police with it, then there is something fundamentally wrong with your society.

LinkedIn is the only social media that has had a positive impact on my career. I’m being followed by possibly future employers, networking with peers and talking about shared issues, planning working lunches at conventions and getting job o

Of course it is, the sole reason Microsoft is doing these things is to sell Azure. Don’t get me wrong, my organisation has a several decade long partnership with Microsoft and they are one of our greatest business partners on the tech side,

Once you stop browsing, you’ll start doing something else. Trust me, I used to use HN and other social media quite a lot, and I always felt like I didn’t have enough time to do what I wanted to do. Once that Apple screen time thing started

We shut down fairly hard and fairly early in Denmark. Our neighbour Sweden didn’t shut down at all. Their economy suffered roughly the same as ours, but the number of deaths per 100,000 population is 43.9 and ours is 10. We’re pretty much r

Oh, you’re absolutely right about that. I probably wouldn’t be able to pull off my hippie look in my position if I wasn’t a Scandinavian man. People just don’t automatically attribute me with financial power anymore. On the flip-side, anyth

I think it’s absolutely amazing how much we put into looks and first impressions. My story is the opposite of yours, being a fit white Scandinavian cisgendered male who looks the part of an IT/banking manager when I’m clean cut. The am

You can have a high amount of gun ownership and low gun related crimes. But the countries hailed for high gun ownership and low gun crime like Switzerland have some hefty gun control. You can’t buy guns without going through hunting trainin

I think it depends a lot on where you are in the world. In my country where access to education is paid for by the government, and the state pays you $850 a month to study for 5 years once reach educations beyond “High School”, work places

Albion Online is build with unity. It’s basically Eve Online in a fantasy more newbie friendly setting with league of lengends styles combat, ARPG styles solo PVE, 20 man raids, and, mining that’s actually fun. Works pretty well, even in ma

I work as a developer in the European public sector, we already took privacy and security rather serious because the laws governing it had always been and are still tougher than the GDPR. I actually like that the EU is doing something, and

I think the authors scope is way too narrow. If you’re a react developer who also knows vue, and perhaps enough ops to get side projects to run in Azure/AWS then you’re still a specialist. It’s easy to forget, because development is wh

I think anyone considering these wild setups should read about how stackowerflow is hosted on a couple of IIS servers. It’s a sobering reminder that you often don’t need the new cool.

Considering you’ll often find more informative links posted on reddit than you will see in your google results, I think it may be a problem with Google. At least for my anecdotal experience. Which is what makes other people having similar

Oh I look to reddit/HN and hobby forums when I want recommendations, but if I already know I’m going to buy something specific, like a yellow “specific brand” paint for my blood bowl team, I’ll google and look for the cheapest seller.

I didn’t think much about it, but now that you mention it, I’ve been typing “reddit” after my google queries almost every time I search for something that isn’t a technical problem or me looking to buy something.
