I would humbly suggest that the bevy of reactions to this innovation that amount to 'eww ugh this creeps me out' is evidence of precisely the cisheteronormative bias that this voice was designed to mitigate. I invite you to intros

I'm a big fan of this, as a non-binary trans woman. Also, it sounds like me ^^

additional testosterone means you read as (and possibly are) queer more often, which in turn means you gotta pay the butch tax. This result, correctly interpreted, will be unsurprising to most queer and trans people.

Canadian talent will go to the US on TN-1s and Canada will still see a net increase from overseas. Did you read the article?

a fun game to play is to guess how many of the commenters here on HN who think this is defensible have a uterus and/or are women. I guess this mostly seems fine to those who are not even potentially affected, as usual.

I don't see how either how (a) where it occurs in the article body or (b) what flavours of politics are vivid to you, and which, in David Foster Wallace's memorable phrase, taste like the inside of your own mouth, would be relevan

I stopped reading at "social justice bandwagon". Without interacting with the central claims of this article, which seem to hark back to the breathless realm of nineties _Psychology Today_ grade neursci, I believe I can safely ign

better question: why do self-described rationalists breathlessly report anything with the word "transgender" in it while discarding any pretense to rigour? No, wait. That headline isn't breathless enough. Better: Why are cis

As a non-American who has spent some years in the U.S., it fascinates me that you could subject your youth to so many horrors -- student debt, school shootings, not to mention the present administration -- and yet there is this profound thi

I fail to understand how I assume they serve a greater purpose -- they simply provide consequences for debtors, something increasingly difficult. I hate them, but it fascinates me that some folks can't even bear to discuss how the meat

Downvoters, why do you disagree? I'm sincere and I believe myself to be correct.

Oh, easy. Collection agencies. Collection agencies are a vital part of the capitalist financial apparatus. Banks rely on them to enforce loan term agreements, and in turn defend them when in negotiation with e.g. Apple, when e.g. negotiatin

it evolves quickly because the whole field is based on a couple of hacks, and the possibility manifold is being constantly dilated via the tiny hole they opened. ES5 plus XHR rent a hole to a bizarre parallel world where the whole page was

wait, hold on. it should be possible to use Falcor as a transport and something like Apollo Link to provide a GraphQL interface. Basically apollo-link-state but the store is shared with the server via Falcor

This was so interesting to read. I greenfielded a project recently and while we went with GraphQl (largely for the same reasons they did) I also admired Falcor a lot, and well remember the day I saw it hit 1.0 here on HN. Falcor has been my

The brilliance of having Canada do the arrest is actually breathtaking. This way the US still gets to fire a shot across the bow of the PRC while Canada (my country) suffers the "grave consequences" with a trading partner we can&#

We already did standardize. With standards. By a standards body. This is more like, "and all cars on the road have a Toyota motor." Gonna be waiting a while for those figurative Teslas...

The new UX is beautiful, well-thought-out, consistent, and sporadically hangs for tens of seconds at a stretch on my 2017 16gb i7 MBP in both Chrome and Firefox. My theory is that network interruptions during pageload cause the balance of t

I used 'bodies' specifically, because that is what we, the precariat, are to the systems that govern our lives. We are warm bodies. Useful for interfacing with other warm bodies. When those bodies cool, they are discarded. Yes, it
