70 million people in America are obese. Eating food doesn't make you obese, it's over indulgence of food and using food as a coping mechanism.

Redhat offers self-supported versions though, for half the price.

The term "unconscious bias" is based on the (false) assumption that every group of human is exactly identical. It is 100% a political term that is shoved at people to make them fee…

I think one of the most egregious examples of this is Snapchat Inc's official mission statement being: We contribute to human progress by empowering people to live in the moment Fr…

"open source" and "free software" are two words for the exact same thing. Both of them are pretty poor descriptors. "open source" doesn't convey the legal freedom you are granted (…

Disc brakes were available in 1975, wide tires before that. Dropper posts I consider to be a gimmick. 1x drivetrains do have some drawbacks, but I consider them overall to be a goo…

IMO the bicycle was perfected 20+ years ago There is nothing left to be improved, only gimmicks with aggressive marketing Just be happy with the bike you have, and ride

I don't think there's any market. The only people who buy macs are people that have no intention of playing videogames on that system. I personally transitioned from Windows -> Lin…

The vendors are the GPU manufacturers. And both AMD and Nvidia offer full support for OpenGL and Vulkan. There is no reason why I should have to use a different APIs to access the …

I think the problem is that javascript has stopped being one language of many and has become the language. There are hundreds of thousands of developers now who only know javascrip…

We have known that certain plastics mimic estrogen in the body for well over 10 years now. BPA is banned for use in baby products in most western countries for this exact reason, b…

Puberty starts earlier than it used to *for girls*. Which surely points towards plastics and phytoestrogens in food as being the much more likely cause than improved nutrition or o…

Not once was laziness mentioned, you are projecting. The post is just someone sharing that their own experience is completely different to that of the parent.

No, that would lead you to conclude that all people have problems

>If some people genuinely have problems and some genuinely don't You only gather data to reach that conclusion by letting both sides talk about their experiences, not by telling on…

And yet you are trivialising the experience of the person you are replying to. How rude.

It is far more empathetic and fair to acknowledge people's genetic disadvantages and adjust expectations accordingly, than to demand everyone competes at the same level. Which is w…

People in this thread are conflating "phone" and "smartphone". You can just carry a cheap dumbphone and it works for texting people or emergency calls just fine.

All OpenGL does it draw triangles. Once you get through the process of drawing a triangle on the screen then you're learnt 70% of the core of OpenGL. I think you're making the inco…

Nokia 105, which still works in europe where we have 2G. If you are in the US I believe options are more limited, but they do have some 4G ones.

>In hindsight I don't know why, since I rarely had a good time on there. Someone told me once that addiction is built more strongly with negative experiences and it blew my mind. I…
