Because the issue goes way further back than college, yet they sit here at the college-level with little-dictators breathing down their necks about why is their college "so white". So how far back does one need to go, and how pati

There is no way to untangle any of that from the past in any fair way. We are just making more victims that future generations will look down on us for. I want to leave a fair world to my children, not one filled with hate and systemic raci

This is why we added http cache headers, CDNs and caching of common assets, and cross domain requests. All of which are being assaulted for various levels of "privacy" concerns. Privacy I never asked for mind you, but I get it any

Reading this discussion I can't help but get reminded of the whole discussion around free-range chicken. Just in your comment, you talk about how tou have "access" to a park. Sounds like a little pasture area meant to distrac

This topic has me oddly emotional, not in an angry way. A bit sad, but also, happy-sad that perhaps these things can maybe be discussed in a sane way and we can just help people that need help. Although I don't agree with everyone he

We can't just throw something like "you confuse the concepts of X and Y" like that. This whole sex vs gender this is absolutely new to the world, so we can't just expect people to know it much less agree with it. I may b

I think that's what I meant, perhaps I used the wrong word. So we "test" that they have the "means" to provide a roof and food for their children? And yeah, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be helping them a

Rather than sterilizing people, I've often thought that maybe we should rather have things like means-testing. Originally it was more in the context of not letting poor kids suffer, but perhaps we expand it to make sure kids will have

You stop your service, do apt-get update java, and then start it again? New URLs, update your nginx config file and restart nginx. Second instance? Dunno, provision a VM, ssh into it, FTP the jar over and stick a load-balancer in front of t

Most of the mortgages here in South Africa are variable interest rate. So whenever the government wants to "fight" inflation, they raise the interest rate. They cause a huge increase in the amount I have to pay to service the debt

As a fan of the series, I'd argue thay they definitely took inspiration for the Ferengi from a caricature of traders, greed, utilitarianism and overall love of money and materialism. But to be fair yes, everything in real life is a neg

As much as I want to agree with you and I do in principle. My reason for not trusting a degree is because I've first-hand seen degrees being given out like candy. I've seen companies hire degreed individuals and then spend a year

I'm a big fan of tomatoes, and one of my favorite dishes is sliced tomatoes, salted, and eaten with cheese. For some reason, normal salt just sticks on the top of the tomato despite it being wet and I can "taste" the salt not

It's not so bad - just don't go to dodgy areas. Everyone that lives here knows not to go to those places or to be alone when vulnerable. Violence wise, I'd rather live here than in places like London or most of the places in
