I don't think it's trolling, it's just having a lighthearted moment in an unexpected situation. You can't blame individuals for doing what they're supposed to do, i.e. replying to emails; at that point it's the

It depends on what you want. If you're in it for the money, try working less hours as you find a place with better compensation or benefits. >being on-call almost 24/7, sometimes for straight 7 days for months despite only gett

Neural networks, at the end of the day, are still advanced forms of data compression. Since they are Turing-complete it is true that given enough data they can learn anything, but only if there is data for it. We haven't solved the pro

It is sexism when those women specify that they are being mocked by men. Being mean is not a trait inherent to women or men as the prevailing attitude in these comments implies. >for talking about how painful it can be isn't helpful

On the other hand, this article read almost like satire. This man described almost nothing other than his shortness, as if it were the only reason he couldn't find success in dating. I refuse to believe that any one thing could hamper

I can't downvote or flag, and I don't really care to moderate my language. So I'll use the tools I'm given I guess? Sad to see so much focus on a discussion of moderation, rather than the sexism and bigotry I thought was

The comment I replied to wasn't referring to complaints about work, they were referring to complaints the dating game. There is nothing wrong with being condescending towards men who talk about "women" like they're a dif

To be sure, I don't go looking for it. But I don't feel bad in making a bigot feel unwelcome.

I mean... in my case, there wasn't really much of an argument. I guess it was "rich people are better than poor people," which, I do want to discredit, but also don't want to legitimize.

I've been meaning to properly learn complex analysis. There's a whole wealth of what seem to be magic spells that are possible merely because of root(-1) or something. There's also Clifford algebra, which turns geometry into

I think this makes sense, but luck is a weird way to put it. I'm sure Bill Gates' family had plans to create generational wealth; at the very least they didn't ignore the possibility. The question of whether or not Bill is

Yeah, the implied causation is weird. Do we know with certainty that cortisol causes a mental state?

If you aren't resigning, show us what you're doing. Because you probably can't do anything other than voice your useless opinion. You are as weak as anybody else, don't have delusions now.

Nobody in the 0.001% (the "we" this troll identifies with) made it there through sheer will and determination. If you grew up in the slums you might make it out with a good, stable, comfortable life through good planning and will.

Then statistically speaking, you aren't in a position of power. I doubt that you even are. The "we" you used earlier was certainly a mischaracterization of your supposed "power".

Yes, it isn't your fault that your parents have money/connections and your ego knows no limits. No, that doesn't mean you're better than anyone. When was grace in power determined to be a useless quality?

Paranoia is categorically the mental illness that prevents someone from recognizing a friend (and maybe catatonia/coma). But when you say "someone with a serious mental illness" you make a sweeping statement that's jus

>What does friendship even mean for a seriously mentally ill person? That's a really fucked up take. You can be mentally ill and be capable of recognizing love.

I do think there is a problem that merits discussion. But to ring such alarms and place it in this context doesn't do that discussion justice. There is more nuance to be had.

Meaning, Google offers Docs to you as a service, not as a consumable. You are not entitled to full control of their product, because that would be antithetical to what a service is; the point of a service is to deal with tasks so you don&#x

Right?? People on this thread are blowing up this issue to hyperbolic proportions, while issues of those proportions actually exist. Makes me sad.
