Yea I agree. I'm super negative and I don't think I've ever liked any other USB before, but this standard is great. I only wish some of my older hardware had it, won't buy a new tablet without USB-C.

I disagree. I'm in the UK and it's every bit as bad if not worse than the US in all cultural spheres and academia. The difference is that there has been much less pushback, if someone like Trump managed to be elected - which is hi

In a company setting, debate more often than not actually exacerbates the issue. You don't want the conversation in that setting because the relationship in the company hierarchy is inherently negative for moral debates.

Trying to enforce characteristics for the network at the global scale is incompatible with the most basic degrees of freedom of expression. However, at some point all large corporations - so far - want to weaponise their control of the netw

But Section 230 doesn't account for it... I honestly don't think it's practicable as much as it pains me. You rely on some goodwill from the site, and if you open it to lawsuits you will get none.

His idea has better incentives. He doesn't have to insert himself or make consulting necessary, he has an incentive to make the running costs as low as possible, and the manuals as good as possible. Among other things.

It's a matter of scale. As size grows, rules become harder to enforce and the amount of comments that would derail conversations sky-rocket. Living under the same rules globally, esp. across ideologies and world-views, is a disaster fo

I think you are, sadly, completely correct. And that is why Section 230 in IMO unworkable as it was conceived, as it provides exceptions on a justification that is completely false. Honestly I don't see what's the best alternative

Yep reddit is increasing its conformity and intolerance to dissent at a very quick pace, maybe because it's election year? But in the past such forays have been one way only. As the subs where you can speak with some degree of openness

If you find that your skills and career make it unfeasible to find much realisation, then probably your best strategy is making work "just work" - there's a tendency to lying to oneself in this industry. The vast majority of

Really well put. It's a combination of this phenomenon and a push for commoditising engineers/makers. Paradoxically it's based on "sound economics" - the clear advantage of commoditising "resources" and th
