Similar impression here. I think we're not the target audience of this document.

I wrote the comment as someone who doesn't use social media. I still, for example, miss out on important life updates from my friends because media has taught us that it's easier to post a story than to manually select all 10-50 p

I agree with everything you wrote, but also think that if you actually care about the other person getting better, you have to be pragmatic. Set and respect your own boundaries, but tough love does not work on everyone.

I'm a meetup organizer and sometimes get this but the other way. People insist that our current platform is not appropriate or inclusive because it requires an email signup, or the group chat is on a Meta-owned platform, or whatever. W

I don't want children nor do I work with children, so haven't put any serious thought into how I would practically do it - I just don't think there's an objectively superior way to go about this. I won't judge anyon

I think it's a bit reductionist to say it's devoid of purpose and meaning. Have you asked her what she feels her purpose/meaning is? You can disagree with it (I would as well), but I wouldn't assume she doesn't find

I'm glad that you were able to convince all your meaningful friends and family to change their social media / internet behavior according to your values - but please don't assume that it's a viable option for everyone, w

You seem to be ignoring the fact that people plan things in real life over the internet. Conversations started online continue IRL, and vice-versa. Social media can be really bad, and maybe it's actually mostly bad, but it does facilit

My life is also better, overall. However, I do miss out on important life updates from my friends because I'm not on Instagram. I could be a hardliner and say "well they don't care about me enough to share 1-on-1, so they

The Bible, I absolutely would, the negative impact of dogmatic Christianity has been pretty bad on society IMO. Harry Potter, not so much, but still some yes. I still have to argue with some of my friends that the books have some dubious mo

That is certainly an opinion and a higher goal we could hold ourselves to, but education is generally just a way to ensure kids grow up to be good citizens - and today good tends to mean productive, contributing to the economy.

That's a very convenient explanation. Are there any good studies or research on the subject? Considering there's tons of research on the topic of global warming and climate change in general, and I don't remember hearing this

you/we are not the target audience. most people love the auto play features and just want a selection of playlists or radios to put on. this is the majority audience that Spotify makes the most of its money from.

In PHP, dependencies are just .php files just like your own code, it all works the same. PHP code is also typically far less complex than Python modules - modern PHP code consists of a single index.php with procedural code, and everything e

AFAIK, before PHP even accesses opcache for bytecode, it checks the file's metadata (last modified, most likely). So an updated file might never trigger a cache hit or miss.

Okay, let's keep timezones. You still don't know if it's appropriate to call your friend in Australia at 8AM their time, even if it totally is in Switzerland. Nor do you know whether calling at 8PM will interrupt someone'

Something about this whole thing made me think of how prompts are similar to laws and contracts. Just like with prompts, these are never really followed exactly either (in the way that we never read the full TOS), and are mostly there as gu

I really dislike the gut reaction to blame "left-leaning workers". It's not that long ago that AI models were accused of refusing to draw people of color [1], or other forms of pro-white racism [2]. It's obvious that cre

I think in situations like that, it's useful to take a step back and ask how much business value you're adding. If you really are the sole person working on a project, how likely is it that this one project having a bug or crash a
