You've just described an anti-LGBT organization while claiming it is not

This situation proves those people were right.

Governments are not a force of nature either. Sure, they're more likely to win over Eth, but I personally always remain hopeful for change in incumbent systems.

>I can login to with just a password If you can, so can anyone. Although using a unique/rare password (globally, not just among your accounts) is probably enough to make this a non-issue.

That's a drastic oversimplification. For one counterexample, consider a prosecutor who believes x but also y. The community agrees on x but not y and consider that a dealbreaker, so the prosecutor is not elected. And this doesn't

That was concerning my bit in parentheses: "more broadly Microsoft products/services".

A company forbidding the use of Windows (and more broadly Microsoft products/services) would be a huge green flag to me. I don't even care why. I would miss VS Code though.

I wonder if this is compliant with CAN-SPAM, let alone GDPR. Would like to see a web unsubscribe option added, though overall I'm not too upset about it.

Would you be opposed to using your tax dollars to fund a voluntary euthanasia program for these people?

I don't think the human condition has substantially changed since the end of the Bretton Woods system. Or are you referring to a period of time further back?

This reminds me of the idea that most people's actual job is to make/keep their boss happy, and what they think of as their job is just a means to that end.

Textual seems to be the right fit for a project I just started, but I have some concerns about its maturity and longevity. I feel better about both after reading the post (and seeing the call for applicants at the end despite the economy).

Is this satire?

I genuinely thought this would be about the pigeons when I read the title. Seems more appropriate for a "syndrome" than what it actually is.

I think so, because it keeps me in the app and watching content.

I think it's just simply better at it. As users, we provide signals to these systems in the form of engagement metrics. But these systems have to interpret those metrics. If I'm highly engaged with a piece of content, the system h

Having armed militias / mafia organizations that operate state-like is just outsourcing violence to a different entity. For something to truly be an "other" option, violence would have to be something held and used at the ind

I've seen anarchy described as the removal of "unjust hierarchies", which feels like a cop-out that allows for hierarchies as long as they're "just"? But who decides that? Naturally, it'll end up being the

Using TikTok made me realize that I'm not fundamentally opposed to this approach, but it needs to be done well. That is, it needs to recognize what I care about and show it to me. Facebook, Reddit, Twitter and YouTube have never been g

Outsourcing violence to the state is probably the single biggest source of suffering in modern society.

Do Amazon and Google sell data to 3rd parties? I always figured they wouldn't because it's literally the core of their value.

The difference between ransomware/spyware/extortion/espionage and whistleblowing/free sharing of information is just one of perspective.

The common wisdom is that they're afraid of being sued. For example, imagine someone with Bipolar disorder in the midst of a manic episode scheduling and performing a tubal ligation. Then later on, they accuse the doctor of malpractice

Unless it's specifically a period where operations wind down, don't companies try to stagger leave?

That's obviously not ideal for your family, but it's precisely what property taxes (or more directly a land value tax) is designed to do. If your grandparents couldn't use the land in a way that covered the property taxes, th

We apparently use it at work, which is all I needed to know to determine that it's awful.
