I liked most of the first season of WoT; though it got more and more divergent (and felt worse for it) as the season went on. The final episode lost me. I've been meaning to watch the second season but haven't been able to bring

The value of private isn't as much that it can't be used against you; but that you don't have to bother with the cognitive load of sanitizing it. I currently use a plugin that opens up a Daily Log each morning as I open my ed

same argument/logic works to justify not wearing seat belts or hell, not outlawing murder. "Won't stop/save everyone so not worth doing".

Become a manager. Talk to your manager, most decently sized organizations have clear paths. I've been offered coursework to prep for the transition a number of times now in multiple companies. If you haven't yet, seek it out.

I daily FF; and every couple weeks i have to open up whatever isn't working in Edge or Chrome to continue. It's usually a banking website or similar.

That's such a copout deflection; was it FEMA budget? Was it even national funds? The hypocrisy is astounding. Pick something that is copmpletely but TRANSGENDER or IMMIGRANT or SCARY DARK PERSON and make up a bunch of absolute tri

I mean; it's impossible to plan for everything , and I'd argue that if you actually did plan for everything; it would be so extraordinarily overbuilt that it couldn't be considered 'correct'.

> privacy-first focus at Apple I'd argue Apple is more an "Invade the privacy but keep quiet about it" with a shiny and aggressive ad campaign toting privacy from (others, but conspicuously not apple).

Historically, the comparison from Apple is simply "Spy on me - but pretend you don't through shiny advertising". What's a better is up for interpretation I think.

I generally dislike being told how to handle my commit history as 'i can do it better' - but this is really true. Commit history on a (larger?) PR tends to be most useful during the PR itself; I tend try and make my commits tell a

honestly, that's the same argument people made against photographs when the technology became available. Same argument made against the printing press. New tools aren't inherently inferior, they open up new opportunities.

That's an over simplification I think. If you're only generating a video because 'I can oooh AI' - then of course no one wants it. If you treat the tools as what they are, Tools - then people may want it. No one really
