Very sad way of seeing the world and experiencing life imho. Sounds like some very traumatic past experiences that are the exception not the norm. things can definitely be much better

No data on this but instinctively it seems, given alternatives, most people abandon some buggy software rather than patiently reporting problems and waiting for it to get better.

Agree, this is a pretty bad deal breaker for me. Big business people doing short-sighted big business things, salivating at cramming a product full of telemetry. All without transparency around it? In a terminal of all things?? Indescriba

True, I remember reading that humans are the only animals that sweat. Some animals like hippos create thick oily sebaceous sweat but I don't think any other animals just spill water from their pores like us. That's what gives us s

Can't this just be chalked down to acquired skill made possible through superior intelligence? i.e if other animals could practice and learn as effectively at us, perhaps a silverback gorilla or something could throw better than human

This is the reason why communities like r/antiwork are so massive. The sad fact is that working class people who don't possess rarer skills are frequently mistreated this severely. In other words it's much easier for a sociop

Probably conventionally dangerous stunts happen much more often than potentially dangerous engineering stuff. By definition you'll hear more outrage around more densely outrageous things. If more people did dangerous engineering stuff
