You don’t have to be neurodivergent. Weed is bad. Not going to jail is one thing, actively pushing it is another

Just as well. Look at the contracts. Ebooks are draining our libraries of funds. It’s so much better for the library to borrow a physical book

Programming is freer, faster, more shared, and has more corporate sponsorship than ever before. You think it was always this easy to find high quality docs and packages written by …

The estimated innocent population is around 9%. A far cry from the majority. This is just populist trash. Now if you want to make a majority claim about those incarcerated being in…

Norway accepts they are a homogeneous country. Americans lose their minds at the thought

Seems reasonable, but maybe not exactly a weapon. It is used to subdue someone, but not as a threat. Should be a parallel class. And while the intended assault is a sexual assault,…

Reform is needed, yes, but this is a stupid comment. By your own argument 75% of SNAP is spent on normal food, mostly by people who need it

GDP is a meaningless measure for all but governments and the very elite. How about some metrics on issue that led to Brexit?

Take them to small claims court. You would win

$300k most def too high

This. Don’t be so sensitive, just say to call you. I took my daughter to appointments and as soon as I started asking meaningful questions, doctors immediately switched to assuming…

Standard engineering. You fix the thing that breaks the system first. Fix that, the next bug appears. Rinse, repeat. You don’t think we have been doing this already? Car safety imp…

Except he didn’t say “for ten years” but “in ten years” referring to the extreme length of time companies take to upgrade

Most other things pay a lot less or require many years of expensive schooling

This it how it used to me. We had a War Department. Rebranding to Defense was a PR move to hide what was really happening. This is a good thing as it’s far more truthful.

You’re kidding? You want millions of people to apply something that gets absorbed into the skin without testing it for side effects?

It didn’t ruin his life. Having an unstable childhood due to a mentally ill mother and later developing paranoid schizophrenia and a drug addiction (common with schizophrenia) is w…

Except they didn’t. A proper municipality decision would have been discussed publicly with advance notice. This is like the board of directors of Toyota deciding to stop selling to…

No doubt you mean well. In some cases it’s obvious- low memory machine can’t handle some docket setup, etc. In reality, you can’t even predict time to project completion accurately…

You can do both, in that you can have a system where if you make less than X, you don’t pay VAT on certain things, or less. California is now doing this for electric car rebates. O…

LinkedIn is not a place to air grievances. It’s a place to post your job history, post jobs, and “like” when others have been promoted

Food control is easy but we don’t actually want it. 1. Prohibit large companies from using their size to negotiate prices, like how it used to be 2. Stop farm subsidies for all but…

I haven’t seen this. There are more smaller companies than larger ones. At my company, as a manager, I encourage the use of AI because it appears to make developers about 10% more …

When an employer demands the composition of the engineering team must match the composition of the nation in sex and race, with an exception allowed to favor anyone who is not a wh…
