A weird comment to make to someone who already has children, but I guess at least we can all be happy that my kids are being raised by parents that can read?

I'm sorry but your summary of what I posted is so selective that I have to assume you're replying in bad faith.

> If you claim to be changing your life in any way in response to this then you're just putting a fig leaf on decisions that you've already made. How insulting. Bad faith arguments have become way too prevalent on this site.

What? This happened a few blocks from my home: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/08/17/dc-arrest... As did this: https://www.thedailybeast.com/ice-goons-tear-down-pro-immigr...

Yes, this article is about the US. And I live in a place single digit blocks from multiple places where ICE agent behavior has made national headlines. I have no financial reservations.

The fall of this site after 2016 has been sad to watch. Basically turned into low-volume reddit.

Living in a city that this administration has constantly been attacking forced me and my wife, as well as many of our neighbors, to put off our family growth plans. Not only did many of my neighbors lose their jobs, but others are simply fe

I suspect anyone using wikipedia do justify their inability to find a partner is generally undesirable.

Kind of on brand for this site these days, tbh. A brand of anti social that believes disruption done for anything but monetary gain deserves extreme punishment, regardless of circumstance.

I think you're right, unfortunately. Looking at the causes and the current actions of the US government (and, other governments worldwide tbh), this looks like an almost deliberate attempt to create a new class divide and supply of low

What does this even mean? You literally say that you were working harder than your coworkers. Was your job under threat or something? This just sounds like an unhealthy case of imposter syndrome. > But let's not gate-keep or be naiv

I certainly consider myself a skeptic in the current AI craze, but this entire piece (of which I find the technical criticisms interesting) just reads like attack on Altman/OpenAI. Even if you want to make fun of the (alleged) snake oi

So turning cafes into coworking spaces? They even use AirBnb as the base example, and we've seen how that's gone for cities around the world. This sounds tragic.

Commenters in this thread citing NPR as a reason that dollars shouldn't go towards helping kids learn how to count and not be antisocial is the kind of win right wing media could only dream about a decade or so ago. Absolutely embarras

I do find it tiring that tech oriented people still feel the need to denigrate people who are in the arts or athletes (tbh lumping them in with podcast grifters may be the greatest insult). Children can and should have a variety of role m

I think the last few years (probably longer, it's just more pronounced now) have shown us the social impact of lowering the time kids spend together, particularly at school. This person thinks that they've hacked the system, but i

The article is clear that this was a reversal, or are you questioning the integrity of Ars for the original scoop?

Curious -- To me it just seemed pretty standard (for any industry). Did you think the tech work environment today was somehow more enlightened than previous generations general working environments?

This doesn't make any sense. You stood outside of an airport for an hour instead of walking over the the taxi stand where the taxis that you're so worried about were idling waiting for passengers?

You'll be shocked to learn there's more to sf than soma and the pier. Visit sometime.

by throwawayohio 3y ago
Genuinely curious where you experienced this on a regular basis in sf? Do you also live in a business district?

by throwawayohio 3y ago
> These things happened at SoMa, which is objectively known to be a "nicer" neighborhood. i'm having a really hard time reconciling 4 years in sf with thinking soma is one of the nicer parts of the city.

I just don't understand a comment like this. They show prices up front. The way to combat this business model is to not use these services, but you still paid $40 for a pizza.

If it's so egregious is it really that hard to find an example of the bias? Calling the integrity of a single person operation into question, but then backing out with no evidence and even saying it might not have even been them seems
