Upon watching the evidence and trial, it's clear it was organized. They had Save the Dates months ahead (at the exact time the election was being certified) with continued rhetoric that the election was stolen and that they had to marc

I watched the whole trial, it's pretty hard to excuse. Even GOP minority senate leader agreed he was guilty of inciting insurrection (despite voting not to convict on a technicality he created). Sorry if it doesn't match up with y

Yeah, I think many people speaking out against "cancel culture" did not read the article. Few people would argue that Twitch would be wrong to ban a pedophile sharing CP or a domestic terrorist.

"Terrorist activities, child sexual exploitation, violent extremism, credible threats of mass violence, carrying out or deliberately acting as an accomplice to sexual assault" This does not fall under free speech.

Oh, I also made a 2D version too you can glance at the API design, it's just not super documented. https://github.com/ngokevin/pframe

Cool! Not currently working on it personally anymore but I co-created A-Frame which is also declarative gamedev library (using HTML). Seemed successful at getting non-gamedevs and webdevs to build 3D/VR for the first time, and was popu

Fitness is very popular in VR and one of its retaining values. I've even developed some WebVR games that thousands of people used daily for exercise (and preferred over big studio games like BeatSaber / BoxVR) and had people pay m

Seriously, my phone is just getting bombarded by insurance and stimulus spam calls and texts. I did try RoboKiller but didn't seem to catch the calls.

Oh, wow. I used Chatwoot in the past, happily surprised you went through YC! I did have trouble self-hosting once, I think I had to enable task queues in my Heroku or something. I might've eventually switched over to the hosted option

I actually mentioned the movie `White` Tiger, and a `liberal` Indian-American woman, but you're right, I don't agree with that response.

Yup. See Digg.

Brainwashed capitalism reasoning :D (America at least) conditioned to think market caps and stock markets and GDP are the only meaningful metric.

Yeah! I actually do have some users learning Japanese together with a platonic friend with the app. It seems to work well. The use case for learning languages with friends and other family is wide open, just taking the baby steps!

Yeah, it can be a flip depending on implementation, whether you can beat something that is just pixels and GPU with the DOM + browser rendering engine, which has more layers and unpredictability.

I think speaking for the oppressed is better than actively oppressing people though. While there is always more that could be done, hanging out a BLM banner is better than...supporting suppression of black voter rights. Though I understand

Reminds me of the Netflix film, White Tiger. A liberal Indian-American woman comes to India, pretends to care about how the lower castes of India are treated as slaves, but in the end, is just going through the motions and leaves a servant

Okay, sure. I’m just drawing an equivalence to how Asians are treated to how whites are treated, rather than how I think they should be treated, as POCs. That’s my point, a point of comparison and contrast.

We ain’t known for speaking up :) It is a time where we are getting violently targeted. And while people are jumping at the bit to speak up for every other group, we’re forced to uncharacteristically muster it up ourselves. I imagine if I w

Never in tech have I seen conversation about Asian Americans been brought up. When I say, they're treated as white, it's more like they're treated "not a POC", which only leaves a designation of white. Except Asians

It fits the bill. Asians are treated as white in tech. There's never any conversation around Asian-Americans. It's awkward because we're not quite Asian, but not quite treated as fully American either. Many programs have chec

"they're wrong" is not very convincing. It's not the same person writing the articles, and I'm not the same person you've been responding to over and over.

Well, their selling point was that it was easier to develop on locally. We weren't even running Docker in production.

Awesome! I'm just starting with a clear niche and solving my own problems. Where many of my friends and myself are in bilingual relationships that have been trying to learn our partner's languages. In the US, 15% of new marriages

I used to work on a team that was trying to adopt Docker. I was pretty much the sole developer of the frontend and one of the top active developers on the backend. It was really overkill to install an entire VM and spin up my computer fans

When Sketchfest becomes a thing again, that's improv heaven. My favorite was when UCB did their show where they improv off of an audience member's Facebook feed. And this woman had an old Facebook official pirate theme that change

I think they're looking to kill it in favor of a sideloading channel they can control. They announced it but I forgot its name.
