I think the number of right wing political violence attacks is larger than the number of left wing political violence attacks and political cancelling a combined.

I guess, but we just had a huge violent assault on the center of US government from the right, attempting to main and threaten to kill members of their own right-wing power circle for not helping too illegally overturn an election.

Tweeting was the trigger. Hysteria was the problem.

"colored people" is a wonderful illustration of this farce because NAA CP kept the name so long that it went from preferred to offensive and almost back to preferred, with "people of color" being the PC term in US (and

What happens if the name you chose for yourself doesn't match the name a Twitter mob chose for you, and they attack people using the name you prefer? Approximately 97% of "Latinx" people do not identify as "Latinx".

Nope! "Person with" was almost instantly rejected because it is insulting to an unremovable aspect of someone's existence, condemning someone as broken and lesser. Here we have a too-common case of virtue chasers on the &quo

Completely different. Calling police with a false report of an extremely violent crime is hugely different from calling police on an actually crime. And declaring war on policing is a horrific response to the (huge) problem of under 0.1% o

Joining a website where nasty people make comments. Imagine if every redditor was fired or or had their employees quit because of the absolutely horrific things some other users post there.

It not okay to libelously lie about people like this. Please stop.

Another PoC author got her book dropped and brigaded by abusive harassers on goodreads, for the crime of tweeting a gripe that a subway employee illegally ate food on a subway train.

This is a bad take, the wrong side of "paradox of tolerance". Firing/boycotting someone for doing nothing wrong, not even for something "offensive", but just for appearing to have some observable qualities vaguely s

Meetings, email, and ops are working. Playing ping pong and taking 3rd lunch and faffing on HN are not working.

Oncall is a bit special, usually counted as partial time work for time spent not responding to calls, or with overtime rates for time actually called in.

That's still work. The surveys are talking about goofing off like we are now.

When people say they "aren't working" they are talking about chitchat and watching YouTube, not doing the engineering part of software engineering.

How can that be true when DDR5 is only 2x as fast as DDR4 and even a low end dGPU vastly outperforms an iGPU?

Canada also adds 1% to its population in babies, who can't work at all, and are fully dependent on others for housing, healthcare, and social programs.

That's not a reason for the company to stop releasing new versions of their apps forever. If a company is willing to break the law and its contracts (which I severely doubt is happening) I don't think Apple's privacy label is

Why do you assume I would buy more houses if my current house polluted less. I only have one me. And even if I did, why do you assume I wouldn't eat 10x more veggies if I stopped eating meat?

Considering that they colluded to avoid paying talent, it seems that do have some trouble. Having money isn't the same as spending it.

Do you mean a "'pter"? Helicopter is (like gyro, from the Greek) a helico-pter (whirl wing)

by srtjstjsj 6y ago
> "Gyro" is pronounced just like it's spelled, That's tautologically true in English and every language. Why would you assume that a Greek restaurant owner would roll their eyes because English dropped the s for gramm

Use a keyboard shortcut. Since you only need it when typing, your fingers are there when you need it.

It doesn't "mute your keyboard" it "mutes everything" which isn't very useful in a meeting.

Please don't post sarcasm. You can make an equivalent statement ("it almost seems...", "I can imagine...") without the needless twist into a false/sarcastic formulation that just makes your post needlessly hard

Although Force Touch is simulated clicking, the trackpad does flex slightly when pressed hard. It doesn't depress as a button, but it doesn't maintain rigid position. I don't know if it's intentional or just weak metal,
