I sub to twitch streamers I watch because dollar per hour it's the cheapest form of entertainment besides torrenting for me. There was a stint during the GTA V RP craze I had it on in the background and watched it for approximately 6-8

Are there not also mediocre traditional architects? Why are you comparing architects that push the boundaries of human achievment with the most mediocre of software architects who just advise people use AWS? Words change over time and it&#x

I don't see this same energy when peope want to nationalize internet or electric companies. Why is it that only when media companies moderate the content available on their platform do we suddenly not care about property rights? If we&

This is almost impossible to quantify because we can't determine how the pandemic would have played out without lockdowns. It could have gone from 600,000 dead in the United States, to 2 million. (Again, we don't know, it could ve

Nothing about the pandemic made my apartment a miserable place to live. It was alaways a miserable place to live. * There is no bike parking available, so 2 bikes occupy a large portion of my living space * The sidewalks outside my apartmen

Forgive me, but what's wrong with this?

Are we expecting full financial literacy from people who can't legally decide if taking a shot of whiskey is in their best interest or not? Or from the same people who often cannot even rent a car? Or people with no credit history? An

How is our credit score system much different than a centralized database used to control individuals?

This seems... Shortsighted? You can get any development project done without documentation; I don't think that's up for debate. The question is, can you make changes to this project, improve on it, explain it to another team durin

Yes, although in hindsight it's easy to say that was poorly executed. It looks far too big and tried to be more than it should have been in my opinion. I'm thinking more along the lines of small neighborhoods on the edge of a city

I think the disruption will come from the civil planning side of the equation. When we can figure out how to build a city on the edge of Arizona that people actually want to live in then we can begin to leverage more efficient and automated

What makes you think that there has been a recent loss of "humans just talking"? Seems like a fairly subjective position to take when I, as a younger person, feel incredibly connected to a lot of society via online communication.

I think it's important to note that product lead, system architect, and UX architect are distinct roles, each with distinct responsibilities, for a reason. It's not my job as a coder to care about your problem past what has been d

This sounds like an incredibly bigoted, or at best ignorant, stance to take. I think it can be safe to assume that the GP meant that LGBTQ creators can be marginalized based on how they act, look, or simply identify. There is nothing about

Wouldn't it be more resource efficient to traverse the graph ahead of time and prefetch all related resources with a single query?

Doesn't this violate the ToS for a lot of phones and providers?

This is anecdotal, and not explicitly about ATMs, but I have had those "Pay your bills here" machines at 7/11 and other convenience stores mishandle my money a couple times. It would report I paid $150 instead of $200, missin

I would think it could be argued that the incredibly rich benefit more from public infrastructure. Do you still agree with your statement if Amazon had to pay a toll for every shipment?

I am in the "Building MVP" stage of creating a platform for exactly this. Matching people of different disciplines to teams and projects they would be suited for, specifically in the gamedev space. Do you have any thoughts or want

From my understanding classic Marxists are very pro-gun, as a necessity to protect the rights of workers from the ruling class. "The whole proletariat must be armed at once with muskets, rifles, cannon and ammunition, and the revival o

I'm pretty fond of White Wolf's games like "Scion". Where you get to play the offspring of a god and mortal. Also, you can't go wrong with a good game of Cyberpunk
