And here I was thinking my boss wanted to battle me in Magick.

Agreed. When the integrity of the chain is compromised, I'll call it a failure. In the meantime, I'll leave it to the opinionated pissants on both sides to continue acting like they understand anything about what's to come fr

This chain is about "free speech", not censorship, and "free speech" alludes to the first amendment of the US constitution. You're replying to somebody talking about free speech, who was replying to somebody likewis

Your follow-up caused me naught but a deep hopelessness for the state of activism, something I have participated in for over a decade. As I said to the other commenter: > The punchline emerges from the complacent who will allow it to hap

Yes, I would quit my job if they were taking Saudi money. My job prospects are not dire enough that I have to compromise my personal ethics. Do you only hold beliefs that you think people will care about? Are your principles founded on whet

The punchline emerges from the complacent who will allow it to happen, while patting themselves on the back for how "pragmatic" they are - not from the "armchair outrage".

I find the oh-so-witty replies of "I didn't know Vice was journalism nyuknyuknyuk" to be about as much of a distraction from the issue as when cable news stations retort that they're "entertainment, not news" w

Maybe it's not shovelware, but there's a pretty stark difference in the caliber of games that Rare released after their acquisition. This is the company that made Donkey Kong Country, Banjo & Kazooie, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark,

This is great - I really hope to see this take hold. I work for a key player in the legal software space, and easily-parsed contracts would be a game-changer for us. Especially in regards to billing reconciliation between two firms, where t

I've had a mixed bag of results on this one, but as someone who works in data, the sudden crunch to bring a company's architecture into SOX compliance can certainly be stressful enough to warrant leaving.

I'd really like to know how this technology differentiates a gunshot from a car backfiring.

I'm beginning to use "going public" as my indicator to stop using a product. My decade-old reddit account was recently deleted for this reason, as they were showing all the signs before they announced their intention to go

Feels like I'm saying the domain in a Cartman-esque accent.

I experienced extreme physical abuse when I was 3 (my babysitter used to shot put me across the living room when I wouldn't take naps.) A lot of what is in this article, I can attest to firsthand. I didn't realize I had been abuse

Strange, I've managed to do all of that without being needlessly cynical.

Seems like a reworking of the "everybody has an agenda" retort you see so often these days. It's a slippery slope that only leads to dying a curmudgeon, as all chances for new perspectives were rebuked as agendas/evangel

I can understand the disgusted sentiment, but this article read like an angry Twitter rant. I'd very much like to read the original article from the Irish Times, but it appears to be behind a paywall. When I searched for alternatives,

TBF marketing turned outwards is technically propaganda as well.

I am not kidding. I work in the AI industry and I'd go so far as so say that less than half of deployed AI is properly tuned and not overfit. Tons of companies rushed to market half-baked "AI" solutions built by the cheapest

It isn't a "solution looking for a problem" anymore than any technology repeatedly shoehorned into unnecessary situations. NoSQL and AI were deployed in the same overzealous fashion, with the latter producing almost as much s

That was the obvious explanation to me as well. A task was hard in the evening, before sleep, and easy in the morning, after sleep... Must be the drugs.

Very apt username, as that's what I've found myself doing towards your comment. Do you have more information on this nefarious China-sponsored drug supply-chain?

"Don't do the crime if you can't do the time" is pretty authoritarian, as far as quips go.

It's also not afraid to have protagonists of questionable character. Northern Asian media at least understands that people aren't perfect and crafts excellent stories of growth at the hands of a self-inflicted struggle. Western me

You're correct, and it's very concerning that people flaunt arrest statistics without considering that important element: arrests don't indicate higher rates of crime, they indicate higher rates of enforcement . What's

I believe the internet equivalent of "going number 2" would just be a comment section. Seems easy enough.

Stardew Valley has sold 15 million copies in 5 years. That may not be billions in sales, but it's at least hundreds of millions. I don't think billions is that far-fetched, especially with multiple games.

According to Wikipedia, he died in 1020. So technically, you're correct. Which is the best kind of correct.

Oooh, looks like I touched a nerve. Nobody is lecturing you. Go back to reddit, where your half-assed unempathtic (and misogynist) contrarionism will belong.

Yes, there is a reason: because they're private and have limited users.
