In plain English: when people go to the doctor, they want someone who behaves like a doctor.

Partly agree. I agree that what makes old tech good is agency, but I find it strange that you offer as an example "handing a 5yo a phone with a documentary". Phones give you no age…

It's not controversial, I've heard the same for about 10 years now. I still thinking they're wrong - people who need control cant really on social network apps. People who are just…

In this thread, people learn about capitalism.

Big tech in schools is just an attempt to get their users hooked young.

Why is almost all euro+tech so shitty? I want to love cryptpad but the UI is so fucking clunky. Tuta is ok.

Does tape array replace castor? Just from the names it sounds like tape array is the actual storage, and castor is an abstraction that automatically decides what's kept on disk and…

I didn't start by criticizing Israel, but my previous comment was criticism of Israel, when I said that yes, many Christian evangelicals are Zionists and there are more of them, as…

That's another aspect of Zionism, which is that it's really not about defending Jews, it's about defending Israel. Even Jews like myself, when they criticize Israel they're immedia…

I'm happy with tutanota. It's extremely minimal though. I think it's just mail, contacts and calendar.

There's a causation that you're missing. Zionism was originally an exclusively Jewish movement. Christian evangelicals were pulled in latter on as useful idiots. So yes, Zionism is…

We agree on the facts. Christians outnumber etcetc. But the stereotype is that Jews control the media, not that Christians evangelicals do. It's very simple: The fact most Jews sup…

Again, you're confused. I'm saying that P(supports Israel | is Jewish) is large, and you're saying no, because P(is Christian evangelical | supports israel) is large (because there…

Screens aren't inherently bad. It's about the quality. I think your instincts are 100% spot on, keep trusting them. But quality/distractions aside, there are other dimensions to co…

> However, if you actually read any of these papers, they make it quite clear that is impossible to fully separate screen effects from family environment, and effect sizes are ofte…

I looked into this a year or so ago. My take away was that at some point someone published a very long piece which quotes stallman and step by step concludes "this is bad". And the…

My original point was about whether tne Israeli lobby has an undue influence in the media. I didn't say anything about the Israeli gov.

> Pretty sure there are more self-professed Christian zionists living in America than Jewish zionists too. All you're saying is that there are more Christians than Jews. In the con…

No they shouldn't, because American Koreans are for the most part very anti-DPRK and American Chinese are very anti-CPP. American Jews are very pro-Israel and donate heavily to pol…

If I were a user, knowing that the maintainers just let Claude lose on rsync would be bad for my stress levels. In any case, I hate rsync owing to how easy it is to accidentally de…

You're right, the Israeli lobby does not equal Jews, but support for Israel is almost universal amongst Jews. It doesn't equal but it's strongly connected.

The Irish have been selling the EU short by proving US companies the legal mechanisms to avoid taxes. In exchange for that, they got to have the highest GDP per capita in the world…

T is the new B.

Like what? The stereotype that black people are more criminal has a grain of truth? I wouldn't say that at all. Can you give us an example? I have never until now wondered that a n…
