The overall quality of the detractor comments says a lot too. There are a lot of generic hater comments. There are others that make no sense at all… like, Musk not wanting a PR department in his company being anti-speech. Wh… wha?? I’m stil

He makes everyone playing at performative ‘seriuz buzniss’ look unserious by juxtaposition, especially since he got the highest $core in their main game.

Oh, hey, I have this gem open right now on my taskbar. I do a lot of creative work in video, 2D and 3D animation, illustration, photo editing, music composition, and sound editing. I've almost never encountered a UI for a creative tool

I've thought about this a lot. It's so much more than "every generation thinks the next is awful" - that's too glib. By my count we've had 3 consecutive generations disaffected, disillusioned, and alienated. It

I was a child of divorced parents. It seems logical that which is 'better' depends on just how irreconcilable the differences are, relative to the parents in question. I mean, it seems staying together could only work if the paren

3. I misunderstood this one, and now I agree with you. 7. The patriarchy, institutional racism, rape culture. The extent to which these are comparable to conspiracy theories is a matter of perspective and proportion. But it seems obvious th

I can understand why you would make the distinction. Making distinctions is good, in general. However from my perspective as a frustrated user being antagonized by ‘my’ devices, it’s all the same battle to me.

Windows regularly tries to nag me into free features I don’t want too. At no time has the term ‘dark pattern’ ever been necessarily dependent on getting you to pay money. Your argument is that I sound stupid, so I must be wrong? There’s no

After the last iOS update, Apple nagged the shit out of me to setup Apple Pay, for two days. No way to say ‘fuck off’ - only ‘remind me’. No obvious way to stop the nagging. Finally I gave them just the tip, and then pulled out before the m

It sounds like you’ve already totally internalized the notion that what you said was incorrect because anyone at all had some problem with it. My response would be more like: And just who are you? So in a way, you’re right.

It matters a lot whether self-sacrifice and service are self-chosen, or whether they are forced by the state, or under threat of retaliation. Many people who are individualists advocate for self-sacrifice and service as virtues, freely chos

Mispredicted how people would read his essay. I asked him if he honestly didn’t see it coming. He said he honestly did not. That’s very naïve.

This part of the culture is in the grip of a mania. Mania is like improperly overclocked insight. Turn the zeal dial too high, and out comes confusion.

They’ll just say racism and sexism only exist in a context of oppressed and oppressor. It’s all been carefully worked out by certain academic intellectuals, long before it vectored into the mainstream (apparently by way of Tumblr)

I am too sensitive for grotesque images, but I do greatly enjoy maximally offensive verbal comedy, if it’s funny to me.

NTs projecting their own thinking / motives onto autistic people is a pretty major thing.

Wow. I thought about answering and decided it was too much to cover. Well done, teacher! They say your ability to explain to a beginner without misleading is a good measure of how well you understand a thing.

Is it odd, though? Anyone who gets loud without signaling unambiguously that they're one of them, gets called out for something. It's the same reason I'm about to get

It's common enough in the 'underclass' or whatever you want to call it, but they more or less live like it's 1960. Cash. Barter. For things like cel phone, well, I have a friend who will get a banked person to add her to

Don’t worry :) I’m a game engine developer and they’ve been pinging me every so often for the past year or so. Speaking of which, what are your impressions of working there? (You may email me if you’re inclined or would rather.)

Hardly ever. I switched everything to Bing some time ago. If I feel I’m missing something I try Yandex. I hear Brave is good, and Kagi and Neeva may be interesting newcomers. Even if Google were on par with Bing (which I don’t find it is, b

It would be naive to think 100,000 of the most elite practitioners at the company that became the verb for what it does working on the problem for 20 years would be able to keep up.
