    "remix culture" required skill and talent. Not everyone could be Girl Talk or make The Grey Album or Wugazi. The artists creating those projects clearly have hundreds if not thousa…

    I tried zed for a few weeks because I'm generally sympathetic to the "use a native app" idea vs Electron. I generally liked it and its UX but: 1. VSCode is pretty damn fast to be h…

    Isn't the reverse of God In The Gaps just as ridiculous? Just because we have been able to use a materialistic, scientific approach to get this far doesn't necessarily mean it will…

    1. Not _every_ human is capable of creating a false dataset. 2. No human is capable of creating 1000 false datasets in a day or whatever. The same reason it's cool that AI can make…

    I've dabbled with Svelte and find it pleasant to use and I think this is a step in the right direction. The main reason I ultimately keep coming back to React is I find the compile…

    If we boil the definition of of socialism vs capitalism into "who owns the means of production?" Capitalism answers "a small group of people by natural right" and socialism answers…

    Assuming you mean "Big Bang" in the sense of the beginning of the universe, not necessarily. >doesn't the fact that the Big Bang happened imply that there was some kind of state-ch…

    We can safely add plenty of liberal democracies to that list if the criteria is "willing to cause the deaths of millions to realize their political project". At the very least Brit…

    Yes, if I deliberately search for people saying ridiculous things I will find them. Doing so does not indicate a broader, systemic "anti-white" tendency in society. Racism is actua…

    The idea that statements can have the "colors flipped" and be equivalent assumes a context where there exists racial and ethnic equality, which there isn't. A white person saying "…

    GDScript is fine and I use it but it's a stretch to compare its type system to TypeScript. GDScript doesn't have generics let alone conditional types, string template types, variad…
