While I agree that we need to not consider collapse a self-fulfilling prophecy, I have to object to that characterization of Chinese civilization: modern Chinese civilization (as in the People's Republic of China) has only been going o

I think the behavior is so wildly inconsistent that it's not really justifiable, regardless of being a statistician or not: https://github.com/tidyverse/design/issues/13#issuecomment-4...

Not the original poster, but the language has some really weird edges. For instance, check out this wild behavior: http://www.hep.by/gnu/r-patched/r-lang/R-lang_41.html

I'm not arguing there is no biological difference – there absolutely is. I am arguing that there are different lines people can draw and that the example given is absurd and reductive of these considerations.

How is calling transgender women "not women" "well established and reasonable"? Whether you intended to parrot what I said to be so snide, this is quite disrespectful.

I apologize for misunderstanding your initial point: couching the pro-trans movement as an "ideology" had read to me as a dismissal of the pro-trans movement at large and if that is not your intent then I retract my initial commen

Unfortunately, as a society, we've allowed people to tie their livelihoods to it: people spend their lives training for competitions and the prestige of winning them can directly contribute to their livelihoods through income from deal

"Ideology"? Is it unfathomable to you that people would reasonably be able to feel that they have a different biological gender to how they feel in their mind? And that people cavalierly dismissing their acceptance in society is s

First of all, I suggest you refrain from calling trans women "not women" – this is, whether you intend it to be or not, quite disrespectful. You can talk about the biological implications of being transgender without erasing their

From first principles, transwomen feel like they should be just as much of a woman born biologically female, but they just happened to be born biologically male. This dysphoria causes a great deal of angst and I don't think the benefit

I feel like to an extent string_view solves that, but in C++ at least you end up having to juggle lifetimes under the hood.

Cite sources for these claims. Otherwise, this is just unsubstantiated conspiracy mongering.

Quite clearly they had sanctioned commit access to irssi over such a long period of time, so I don't think there's anything untoward about that. In all likelihood, they probably just had their commit access revoked, or are just hi

I think it's a little ironic that someone who hasn't seemed to have committed to the codebase of irssi for years has decided to come in and put their foot down in such an aggressive way. Funny, I feel like I JUST saw something lik

Re usage of "copy": if you've heard the term "copy editing", it's within the same ballpark.

In GP's other comments they're pretty set on downplaying the pandemic. Them spelling China as "Chyna" is not a good sign in that department either.

HR's job is to protect the company. If the founders are propagating a culture that employees don't like then HR's job is to side with them.

I think the "Pyramid of Hate" illustration is really quite immaterial to it all, and overly focusing on it ignores the fact that the founders completely failed to understand their employees' subsequent concerns. You might fee

This dismissal of people as "unhinged", "cultish", and "lack of mental balance" at best unsympathetic and at worst callous. As others have pointed out, it's not really possible to compartmentalize yourself

In a larger codebase, there's two major kinds of value you can get out of types: - Types act as a contract between component surfaces - if you need to integrate multiple components and have different people working on it, having the co

The point is more that it's continuing to socialize the idea that rape in prison showers is a normal part of being in prison, which is sad.

I have a few thoughts on this: - If the waiting times are too long, then ultimately it's a supply issue which can be solved by increasing supply (i.e. more funding). Of course, this is obviously easier said than done but it's not
