I know it's an old man comment, but there really was a time the internet was friendly. It just wasn't 20 years ago. It was before the general public got online, and the internet was a refuge for specialists and early adopters. In

Wouldn't this keep anyone without a spare million from making copyright claims, and incentivise YouTube to encourage these "mistakes" since they get paid for them?

> I wonder what your investors would think if they found out you can't manage and need to 'hope you find suitable talent' and that you are incapable of growing it? Not hiring mediocre talent is a key part of management.

Denying a claim can not kill someone. Disease and injury killing a person. Claim denial prevents financial support for intervention in resolving a disease or injury. That is not the same thing, and equivocating them is sophistry.

The act of killing a human being is not inherently murder. It specifically communicates an unlawful killing, which the death penalty inherently is not.

This works in a small organization, and is probably the best way to run one. I've been part of multiple teams like this. Everyone is high agency, genuinely interested, and making decisions that are (at least intended to be) best for th

It looks like he's mostly concerned with flame wars and slurs, which makes sense since they destroy conversations driven by curiosity and turn them into bitter fights. That's not at all what is going on here.

How is this "race war"? No one is saying people should be punished or are inferior. We're talking about why schools perform the way they do in the US, not some "war".

Wikimedia is one of the bigger "fall from grace" stories of the modern internet. I really wonder how long they can continue to have any credibility left. I suppose rose-tinted articles like this help keep it on life support.

Kvrocks is pretty substantially different, from my understanding. It only shares the protocol.

Automatic breaking is perhaps the worst feature I've ever experienced on a car. It's jarring, takes control from the driver, and, in my case, was unnecessary to engage and dangerous.

Agreed. I spent about 10 minutes on bsky before deciding it was a blatant, seemingly intentional, echo chamber and abandoned any interest.

This is an incredibly obnoxious response. This isn't a court. People can site their professional experience in an informal conversation.

There's really no pleasing some people. Companies make cuts and don't give generous packages, they're evil. They give a package and it's just so they can dodge scrutiny. This kind of no-win complaining is tiresome.

Government funded research is not, at all, what makes them prestigious. Harvard was prestigious long before the American government even existed.

I'm surprised to see HTMX as part of the front end stack. I like the idea of HTMX a lot, but I always got the impression it wasn't widely adopted. Do people use it for production applications often?

Maybe baseless, but I try my best to avoid having food touch plastics, especially when hot. Tupperware is not an option, and feels like a relic of a bygone era.

They're not the same, exactly, but there are similarities. The actor framework isn't inherently durable workflows, for example. It does similarly distribute work though.
