It's a valid point but, is pretty different in its intent from what GP comment is getting at. This wasn't a result of "let's target this group we've deemed political enemies", it was "we're attempting

Really? For me it had the opposite effect. It reads to me that the level of prescription is unnecessary and scary.

Well, to be fair, that's partly because the trick is to not become overweight in the first place. That said I agree. It's clear most people don't have the means and/or ability to do that without policy level help.

Damn, indeed. The Uncle Bob people (or, really, any "this book/blog post/whatever says to do technique x" people) are my absolute least favorite. This is a good riposte. Or, alternatively, if they don't understand w

Huh? This is not the response I expected, and doesn't even really speak to what I asked. "How did you work more on the things you wanted to?" doesn't mean I expect to somehow magically only ever get to do what I want. &q

Can you elaborate a bit? When I have a project I'm really exited about working on I'm productive and it feels great, when it's something I have to do for the business but I don't love the project, I'm slow and doing

Vacant units. Which is to say, yeah, maybe we don't need to build tons more, but we do at minimum need to use what we have and we aren't.

They both still have a good amount of interesting stuff to say. No public figure is perfect. EX: I'd take Brooks over 90% of our existing elected officials...

The first main point of this article is already wayyyy off the logical rails. 1. AIs don't even need superhuman cognitive abilities to defeat us! 2. They could just, make a bunch of copies and work together, but like, way harder and fa

Well it's not _that_ confusing of a comment... My point is suspend states aren't important to big commercial users who are running linux servers. They have no reason to contribute to making it work well. Hence, it likely doesn&#x2

Yeah, I'm aware it's in the kernel, but it's only useful for PCs. So effectively it's a "desktop" problem in terms of people deciding to dedicate resources to it. And... hence why it breaks all the damn time.

I agree that the customization is a huge draw for me. But... I also want things like hibernate to just work, screen tearing to not happen on X11, etc etc. The polish is absolutely not there, and I agree w/ the article that's a r

I don't think your last point is a significant lingual difference, it's a cultural difference. We have those words (you wrote them, just leave off the "person" part), they're just considered offensive to use that wa

But, it's a good point that you rarely hear much in the public discourse about how much NFL players make, where tech CEOs are a constant target of this sort of anger. Mind you, I agree with you on the general point, but turns out peopl

Precisely, this is why I think the earlier comment's suggestion: > How about we not make the default that companies can do whatever they want and users have to take steps like a hardware-muted mic (which isn't always an option)

The NewsHour is fantastic. Occasionally they fall into the same traps that any news source can, but it's a great way to learn about what's going on with a minimal amount of sensationalism. I disagree with the post article that &qu

Eh, I thought the same thing but I've really enjoyed the classes. For me it's not about motivation, it's about getting structure to your ride without needing to plan it yourself. You also get things like the strength classes,

It also demonstrates how easy it is to ruin things by caring about monetizing them. A lot of what's great about it wouldn't really be possible if you cared about making money off it.

It's not that they need a reason intrinsically, it's that if the person being fired is of a protected class, the company wants to protect against that person suing for discrimination. Those sort of suits are definitely filed witho

IMO this is technically true in a totally uninteresting way. People aren't going to stop doing stuff. That's just fairly obviously not really on the table, despite the minority of people who are into ideas of going back to some pr
