I don't know what to tell you. If you haven't noticed the overwhelming mass-production of engineered outrage over the last few years, then perhaps we don't frequent the same places on the internet.

People ought to have as much a right to be as stupid as they want, as you have the right to be as smart as you clearly are.

I'm from one of the poorest countries on the planet, which is neither politically aligned with the US nor the Chinese, because it isn't geopolitically important enough. Though to be entirely honest, it's aligned with whoever

So what? Well, we get to choose which side we allow to spy on us. I mean, I suppose we could make an argument for all people being equal in all equal ways, but don't forget that the each state actor is driven by different sets of moral

Bizarre title. Why mention Bezos when the article has nothing to do with it?

I agree with you, especially on the bit about making something entirely and fundamentally different. I do see an alternative that the tech-savvy will flock to, perhaps they already have by deleting social media etc. How do you get the rest

I'm going to take a cynical stand and claim that the internet as the greybeards envisioned decades ago is just not going to happen. Or perhaps happened for a short window in the early 2000s. I don't see how we can just turn things

FZF/rg combination is so much snappier than Ctrl+P on my vim setup!

As I stated, I made a decision to not have kids for other reasons, not because I want to save the environment. But the decision to not have kids will have more of a positive net effect towards saving the environment than any other lifestyle

I'm not doing anything directly through work or activism, but I have made a decision to not have children(albeit for other reasons), as have my siblings. I guess that will have more of a long-term impact than recycling, going vegan or

Last couple of years have led me to err on the side of caution and assume that pretty much everything I use has backdoors. Also, Slack is so bloated that it doesn't even make it to the shortlist of the communication apps I'm looki

I like your question about actual work. I suppose anything that helps pay the bills should count. So I definitely agree that bring a social media influencer should count as real or actual work. It's just that there's a "bad t

I had the same 4-5 hours sleep issue until I started to exercise/run regularly. Being a recovering addict/alcoholic, I usually avoid any dependencies, which is why I can't start taking a substance, even if it helps with sleep

The goal was never to end extremism or fundamentalism. Conflict is very very profitable to all sides except the common person. I guarantee that a lot of elite Iranians prefer war and conflict over peace, just like the US.

Anything from these brands will be decent - Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Audiotechnica, Shure. If you're not actually producing music and just looking for casual music listening, anything within the lower price range($100-$300) should be

Also, a lot of it depends on how much of it's culture China is able to export. I could see certain places accept the Chinese language, ideologies, arts etc. in exchange for greater trade/economic benefits. How openly and rapidly t

For learning to actually "play" any instrument, I'd recommend starting out learning some songs you like. The theory/effects/gear stuff develops in parallel. Songwriting will help too, even if it's something sim

I agree with this. I mean, a lot of psychedelic trips made me feel that I was "one with the universe", a transcended higher being or something bizarre like that, but at the end of the day they were still just trips. I also imagine

You may like the "Pasta with Italian Grannies channel" channel. I recently discovered it and it's the best.

Somewhat tangential, but how many internet users(except us old-timers) really make use of domain names in their use/workflow these days? I wonder if there's some research on this. I'd assume that most of the internet populati

All these lists are great but as someone who comes from a place that has no respect for free thinking and the right to free expression, the only indicator that matters to me personally is a "freedom of speech index". Peace doesn&#

I'm on my second year on a 23:1 fast. It's worked out great for me. I did the whole carnivore diet thing initially but introduced carbs and other things slowly. Now I pretty much eat anything I want as long as everything fits on o

It also seems to me that the possibility of a revolution, in any sense of the word, is getting more and more miniscule, no matter which angle you look at it, whether it's because many people simply don't care or are happy to volun

Apple is even a more unreasonable comparison. Do you build hardware and a complete software experience for the customers who buy your hardware? Well then no, you shouldn't compare yourself to Apple.

So "law and policy is just something a bunch of people decided was a good idea". What do you think ethics is? If we're going to be really strict, then everything about humans is "just a bunch of people decided was a good

Or you know, we could worry about both the US and China? I come from a third-world country where my own government is looking to screw me over. There is some consolation in at least getting to choose who screws me over.
