I would just say that choosing to work more than 40 hrs per week is very different to being forced to work 40 hrs per week. Simply because someone can happily choose more work hour…

I run a Arch with the newest GPU drivers and the Compton compositor. I still have significant screen tearing in every app except video games with v-sync enabled and mpv with the vu…

I would be interested if Rapid Serial Visual Presentation breaks this rule for any language. My guess is that it wouldn't, but I would be fascinated to find out. I would guess that…

As a someone who falls into the semi-veg bucket, I would say I agree. It is mostly from an environmental concern, but I am also uncomfortable with factory farming. The thing that s…

I kinda agree with you with a few nebulous exceptions. One, me, and most single people I know, would be perfectly fine with meeting some going about a day, i.e. grocery shopping. T…

That's pretty much what my parents did, and I have mixed feelings about it. I do think it was good up to high school age. I would have said some dumb things when I was twelve I wou…

You include usenet in your example of possible video sources; it is my understanding that cloud providers will ban your account if they get DMCA requests. I am not certain how much…

If the smartwatch can be used as a triage device, I believe it could benefit focus. Glancing at a watch, seeing just the necessary information, and getting back to work is more eff…

I have had points in my life where I have had no friends; it really sucks. These periods would always compound my anxiety issues, my insecurities. Luckily, I am no longer isolated,…

Is it for a website or webapp? If it is just a website, I highly recommend Netlify. It does static site hosting for dirt cheap. If you need a webapp, I would agree with many other …

At one point in time and at one location. At different places in the US, 1 USD can purchase more or less. So on the internet, the purchasing power of the dollar is fairly nebulous.…

I stopped at this exit a dozen times at least. I am genuinely surprised that I have as many distinct memories as I do about a meme about banal American suburbia. I, wildly unsucces…

I strongly disagree with any one nation, but especially India, intervening in this situation. Firstly, what is the actual support that is being provided? Sanctions would do nothing…

> At the risk of being overly ontological, the legal order arises from the social order, since the law is simply a construct of beliefs that society nominally agrees on. That is a …

I don't really know much about Smalltalk, but guix is a linux distro that allows for impressive customize through Guile Scheme. guix: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/ guile schem…

Disclaimer: I grew up in that environment, community Catholic, and am now an atheist. I never enjoyed the Sunday gatherings, I was an angry child, but leaving it does give me persp…

Isn't this just the ZTE ban all over again? Trump seems to completely believe that China owns these companies, so targeting the companies becomes a legitimate strategy in his trade…

I may be misinformed, but I have never heard of China specifically targeting 1 company like this. Sure, China blocks Facebook and Amazon, but its not a targeted hit. China blocks e…

I have mixed feelings on discussing problems with "generations"; its so broad and imprecise that it feels meaningless. However, I can accept that it has some value when discussing …

My layman's understanding is that it allows managers to choose their stated ethics over profits. Traditionally, investors could sue the company for not pursuing above all else.

React is the framework and their design system uses a specific set of rules within the React framework to build consistent end UI/UX.

I know my productivity plummets passed 7-8 hours of work. Many times I would say it becomes negative, I.e. I make a lot of sigbificant mistakes and/or break something. More work is…

I always took that quote is the default, to be disproven by significant evidence to the contrary, or Mark Zuckerberg in other words.

I recently switched back to Arch and decided to try out Wayland. So far, I have only had some problems with Firefox, which could be solved I'm just being lazy. My one wider complai…

I'm an American and I completely agree, but I think some context might be useful. Americans are trained from a young age that you have to sell yourself. You need to toot your own h…
