The security community didn’t ignore hard evidence - the “hard evidence” didn’t stand up to basic scrutiny. These claims may well be false, but they deserve scrutiny, and waving th…

Time scale. Viral load has increased dramatically over what it was like 1000 years ago. The change over the past 100 years is all lifespan due to antibiotics and the sterility anot…

Any evidence for that, or is this entirely opinion?

I mean there’s pretty low hanging fruit mentioned in the article. If rail strikes are frequent enough to feature in the formula, end the strikes by paying the workers well.

“Caused by the brits” Where are you getting japan from?

Copyright law was created because technology came along and made it so copying was easy. We could have thrown up our hands and said well we can’t escape it, these tools exist! But …

All the creators of the original images ingested by midjourney? You understand that if we had the transparency to make a list of names, this wouldn’t be as insidious of a problem f…

Listen, mozilla's got problems - we can agree on that, and you don't need to compare me to a putin apologist to make that point. But "go woke go broke" is dumb sloganeering and pla…

Mozilla revenue in 2014, the year eich was made ceo: $329.6M Mozilla revenue in 2015, having “gone woke” and fired him: $421.3M Go woke go earn 28% more, i guess?

This is so transparently copyright laundering. Copyrighted Images go in, “ai created” copyright-free images come out. Ugh.

Yeah: firefox. Is the browser ecosystem supposed to get better if we collapse it to just webkit and blink? Websites track us, browsers track us, web extensions track us, ISPs track…

Yeah, that’s the ol’ philosopher-king argument. I get it, but I don’t really buy into it. I.e. if the next monarch is a despot, their rule is a part of the previous monarch’s actio…

Slavery was “abolished” in the UK while that same nation continued to traffic and profit from enslavement for quite a long time it’s “abolition”. Is your point that monarchy is goo…

Relatively common in history .

The UK abolished slavery by an act of parliament. A parliamentary monarchy is a historical quirk that does not need the monarchy to function.

Monarchy does not prevent enslavement. In fact, serfdom is a relatively common feature of monarchy. That’s what those two things have to do with each other.

What does that have to do with monarchy?

As someone who deeply loves LOTR - if you try to apply the rules of LOTR to this world, you will make this world worse. This is true. Inheritance and monarchy does not make for a g…

Well. We’ve come full circle. If you want to go back to the comment where i said “When trying to communicate information to people, it’s best to meet them where they’re at.” And th…

And that’s exactly the kind of gender inclusive language they are purging. Because this executive order attempts to define a person with a vagina as a women and only a women.

Can you give an example of gender being put into texts where it doesn’t matter? Or are you just buying the talking points of an administration that has no qualms deleting women’s h…
