"Great content" === what are you referring to exactly? The left-wing propaganda that dominates the front page, passed off as "news" or "science"?

Reddit pushes certain communities to the front page and suggests them to users, and quarantines/bans other communities.

I've been permanently banned from almost all of the top COVID related subs for daring to discuss disallowed topics, like the Wuhan lab, as well as expressing anti-lockdown sentiments. My appeals have been instantly denied as well. I un

Having consistent, memorizable maps allows someone to make progress and improve at the game by learning the map and developing, testing, and iterating on strategic positioning and movement. Having random maps doesn't encourage that, bu

This distinction never mattered. Any discussion of the theory besides refuting it as "debunked" was banned on Facebook.

I don't really care about service size. I care about service division across logical boundaries, namely encapsulated responsibilities. A properly architected service should be responsible for a particular domain, say payments, messagin

The orbit needs to be actively maintained. The telescope was designed for a 5.5 year mission, but NASA says it could last up to 10.5 years with proper fuel management. It has two different types of thrusters under the "Propulsion Subsy

If you got the laptop in a sealed Apple box (purchased by employer), and set up macOS yourself, created your own admin user and everything, does this remote access still apply?

How often are conversations in the political/SJW space “reasonable” and “professional”? Never, in my experience, because the said activists tend to accuse anyone who disagrees with them of being a bigot.

One possibility is an organization that wants ordinary application developers to have a Heroku-like brainless git-push-to-deploy experience, and also has a dedicated infra team that has the bandwidth to manage a self-hosted PaaS.

What do the three countries that you mentioned have in common? Total authoritarian lockdowns. Authoritarian lockdowns are effective at suppressing Covid. I won’t deny that. They’re also a complete non-starter in most countries in the world.

Even the Western countries that "responsibly" treated the virus are having pretty serious surges now. I guess anything short of a total and complete lockdown was irresponsible. I'd say that the release of a highly transmissib

Safety issues at US labs are not kept secret, as the author of the linked article has literally reported on them before, and they have also never caused a deadly global pandemic.

I don't think China is evil incarnate, but I do know that it is confirmed that they have performed GOF research ( https://www.newsweek.com/controversial-wuhan-lab-experiments... ), that there were reports in 2018 that th

I agree that the leak was likely accidental. That said, I think you gloss over the fact that Gain of Function Research (artificial selection) was certainly taking place inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and that US intelligence has co

1. The virus did not originate in our own house. Seems like a deflection to say we should focus on ourselves when we're starting at evidence that Chinese missteps could have caused a global pandemic that has killed millions and upended

Couldn't Robinhood just disable margin trading without disrupting cash trading?

Sorry, as a noob, why does Robinhood need lots of cash to facilitate trades, and what connection does that have to volatility?

What makes you think the guy in the ad is a "suburban dad"? These companies sell to police, private security companies, military, and yes civilians. That segment of the ad looks like its targeted to more of a private security&#x2F

The idea that a fledgling social media company needs a moderation effort akin to Facebook in order to be allowed to even exist seems very anti-competitive to me. Content still slips through the cracks on Facebook too. Parler had a moderatio

Is the implication that one instance of objectionable content is enough to warrant deplatforming of the site? That seems like a really easy way for one competitor to take out another.
