If you bet a player gets 0 points in a game and then you shoot them in the leg...you've essentially bet on them being shot in the leg!

But you didn't help create it. People with money did. So you must keep working 40 hours a week while they collect ever increasing sums of money with their capital proceeds. It's capitalism, not laborism, or humanism. Those with

Yeah. It's like our entire society has been turned into a Goodhart's Law based simulacrum of a productive society. I mean, here it's late morning and I'm commenting on hacker news. And getting paid for it.

It's still closed source. If this company goes kaput, you're hosed. If you need to customize it to make progress years down the line you're hosed.

Indeed. We got a bunch of stuff in Atlanta from them and actually came out revenue positive. And it could be argued that the Olympics is what helped propel Atlanta to the place it is today as the Capital of the South and a second tier cit

Brilliant. Currently dealing with webs of microservices myself. It's truly wild to watch something akin to the cambrian explosion with these things.

Enough ordnance lying around for them and their army and menfolk to have fought if they wanted to. At some point we have to say enough is enough. Thousands of American lives, trillions of American dollars, and 20 years ought to have been

Okay but that will affect hospital profits and our PE firms bought these hospitals specifically to wrench all redundancy out of these systems in the name of efficiency (higher margins and thus profit) so that just won't do.

I didn't say he hates his daughter. I'd suggest you reread.

I know that his trans child won't speak to him - I surmise it indicates hate, but perhaps not. Usually when people say things like "this is the final straw" it indicates anger. You can read more on the former by searching &qu

Sure, maybe it ought to be denoted in academic terms that in a particular geographical area that a particular linguistic form is reflective of certain socio-economic attributes of the speaker. The comment I was responding to was deriving mo

Linguistics as practiced for a long time is descriptive. It is the only practice that makes any sense given the extreme diversity of linguistic forms present in the world. How about you leave your pre-modern prescriptive prejudice out of

If you are interested in this kind of thing I highly recommend Dr. Geoff Lindsay's youtube channel. Deep dives into linguistic phenomena with a descriptive viewpoint. https://www.youtube.com/@DrGeoffLindsey/videos

Yeah for sure. I do set up crons on my local machine using linqpad scripts every now and then, because it's just my special little snowflake one off. But for Devops, build pipelines, etc. I prefer something a little more universally a

I don't think it's a choice. If you don't believe something, no amount of trying to make yourself believe it is going to make it so. A whole lot of people raised in a religion who are now atheists can attest to the extreme
