    It's often not that simple. As a concrete example, I think Golang made a giant mistake with 'nil interfaces' ( e.g. https://go.dev/tour/methods/12 ) which can lead to extremely con…

    I'm not familiar with that area, but considering it's not coastal it seems hard to believe the water is simply wasted once it goes into the ground in the lower Colorado basin.

    It depends a lot on where the farm is, how much they irrigate, and when they irrigate. But often something like >90% of the water goes back into the ground, where it will eventuall…

    I think it would require pretty exceptional circumstances to make any sense to try counter-sue. Like in my case I have pretty conclusive proof that part of her allegation is a lie.…

    You've made the wrong takeaway. I was falsely accused of sexual assault by a woman. It has nothing to do with gender. It definitely can cut both ways.

    We had a gaming party at work on a Friday afternoon, and I happened to have recorded my games. Reviewing it, I found I did play against her (and 2 others) in a free-for all. But it…

    These stories leave a bad taste in my mouth. It hasn't yet gone to court, so the guys allegations could be really be anything from the God's honest truth all the way to a complete …

    I think what's not discussed is that most of this water ends up back into the ground and eventually back into a river. In some ways it even helps regulate river flow. Perhaps one i…

    This is a particularly egregious case, I've never seen a fake domain slip through like that before. However, I have reported dozens of phishing sites for the company I worked for. …

    It is brutally unfair to hire by one standard and then suddenly hold them to a higher one. And fairness aside, if you do not look through an anti-racist/anti-oppression lens you wo…

    The issue is that it becomes necessary as marginalized candidates are given preferences during the hiring phase. So if the same privilege is not extended during layoffs it will unf…

    Reminds me of my story: I met a girl in Mexico and decided to quit my job and move in with her. Since I couldn't open a bank in Mexico, I decided I'd just wire the girl all my mone…

    Absolutely agree. The company I worked from had a persistent problem with someone stealing customer details by buying AdWords targeting our brandname with a fake phishing site. We …

    I think the far more worrying trend is trying to silence anyone with different political ideologies. Like their handpicked example of a user discussing "'destroý' Islam". Note, the…

    The issue isn't funding, it's structurally dysfunctional organizations. But that's a much harder problem to solve than blaming lack of funding. I was involved with a certain tax co…

    That's not really a problem. You don't hash the entire video, but do something resembling a merkle tree. i.e. look at a torrent, they're identified by a hash but you can download a…

    That's fair, but would you also rather people unemployed than working for less than a living wage as well?
