>weasel words like may and suspicion On the other hand, do we want law enforcement to NOT use words like this, as though everyone they suspect of committing a crime is definitely guilty? I personally think it's preferable that they

This exchange is absolutely hilarious to me. We've got people complaining about Google doing something while praising Figma for not being so foolish or evil and extolling them as being exceptionally clever. Except oops, turns out Figma

Not sure if a price that "starts small" is enough at this point. It may have been 15 years ago, but it seems like now it won't be enough to stave off a massive disaster. If there's only political will to start small, the

This is a bit how I feel about advertising in general. Human beings' time is being taken and mouths are being fed not to increase overall output, and thus lifting the overall well being of members of society. Instead, Company A hires a

Those users don't have to be a majority to be money makers for the companies that put out the sites. And even amongst people who want to settle down, a fair share of them probably also wanna do a fair amount of looking around in their

Fuses aren't blown with a laser, it's purely electrical. You apply a sufficiently high voltage to some port on the part from a source that can drive a high enough current and then tell the digital block of the chip which address t

If you're not familiar with what those old philosophers said and how their arguments work, you're liable to make yourself look like a fool when you tread old ground not realizing it's old. Similarly with Jazz, if you wanna be

While I'm sure there's some kernel of truth to the benefits of chit chatting about random stuff and coming up with better ideas through that, until I see some evidence that in-office work provides this to a substantial degree, I h

I completely agree. In my opinion, the best subreddits all tend to ban memes or other low effort content, or at the very least restrict them to a weekly thread of some sort. If users were able to vote on mods, the ones that did this sort of

At least as of a couple of months ago, the lion's share of growth in the S&P 500 was from a few tech stocks, everyone else seemed mostly stagnant. You might respond that stagnant seems to be an overvalue, and I'd agree except

1. How do you plan on keeping them small enough? With mandatory federation and compliance with open standards, would this even be a good idea? 2. Sounds like a great way to encourage site moderators to bring down the ban hammer hard and fas
