If you’ve ever read Harvest and Sowings in conjunction with Pursuing Stacks then you’re already aware of this problem. Possibly the greatest intellectual troll of all time. Rip to a real one. Miss you Grothy baby.

lol. Yes you can. It may not be right or legal but the point is to intimidate and bully. Works all the time against tech workers who are generally pandering, emasculated individuals already.

Found the Facebook employee or stock holder. Literally the first paragraph says they claim Facebook withheld the information which was requested.

Homey just made up bartering as the norm in history. Had some good ideas but also some pretty dumb and fantastical claims that lead to some very misguided ideas as well. Dude was just clueless on money and credit.

Good thing that we saved all those fish since learning about relative baselines… A very nothing article. It amazes me people think some private company owes them anything like privacy or free speech. That’s not how that relationship works.

That depends which story will sell more ads. Elon Bust saying it’s going to replace us gets many eyes on ads even if it’s a dumbass statement. So just depends on the demographic your news sells ads too.

lol. You are an ad for fucking McDonald’s. Also I already know what you’re saying is true, doesn’t change the fact the food has something off about it now. I don’t recall people having midnight black shits and stomach pain from eating McDon

Do people think the first movie was not mostly digital? That’s been my impression and it’s not that hard to tell when you watch it. Furiosa just looks bad though, and I’m a fan of everyone involved in this film. But god damn does it look we

That’s all successful tech companies out of Silicon Valley. It is a silly place.

Lol, i hate the tons of crap I already have to keep in mind and do. Advice like this is what drives the suicide rates up. Expecting people to just "learn a language" like this is a sign of a psycho to me anymore. I totally concede

“Ultimately, initial conditions matter” Whoa. Mind blown. Worth the infinite scroll and meandering presentation. Condescending and pearl clutching read. I used the military to escape. Life’s tough, navel gazing and pushing college doesn’t h

lol. Yeah it’s amazing the hold Apple has on people. Look at the last ten years. Microsoft has gone from a closed off backwater to a forward thinking and multi-OS integrated, cloud powerhouse and made some incredibly savvy investments. Cric

I’m a combat vet from the infantry. I was a lowly enlisted, not an officer. I attended college after wards and now work in tech out west. I am amazed how confused, historically ignorant, but intelligent my coworkers are. It’s like they’ve n

So you can ship your shitty product and get paid. That’s almost always the reason. Engineers have this annoying quality of asking prickly questions and many managers, or people in general, aren’t exactly thrilled by someone constantly quest

100% agree. Had a manager that does this try and tell the Challenger story once. He had the lessons of the report exactly backwards. Instead of the managers creating an environment of risk by not understanding the engineering and overriding

Interesting young populations bordering all too real conflicts and war and existentially threatening neighbors are happier than people who have, by comparison, so much less to be unhappy about. Also the old are very rich in America. They ho

I can see you've never been to Nashville. I'm not a country music fan, I hate the music. But I lived down there for about 5 years and it's amazing how many incredible musicians live there. You can walk down the street and it

I suspect that’s a very Facebooky user base as time goes on. As in users have accounts but don’t login and use them. I have 2 accounts and I’ve not been to either in over 2 years. With ChatGPT I have even less reason to ever use those accou

I remember thinking I’d like to pick up react for some changes we were planning at work. I spent a weekend with Road to React making a simple web app. I was amazed how overly complicated it seemed and that I was being told “there’s no DSL”

I stopped using it when I noticed it had those strange banners about language in every single subreddit. It was weird to go talk about a programming question and see that. ChatGPT gives me most what I got on Reddit without the weirdos and c

Cool. So, where you getting that labor you smothered out for shareholder value all those years ago? I both hate this but support this. I hate it because no one will learn their lesson and Chicago economics will go on being a theory from aut

The Man Who Knew Infinity is pretty good, more accurate than some of the others on here. It focuses on Hardy (Jeremy Irons) and Ramanujan (Dev Patel). I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a good period drama with a good cast and nice
