If I'm basically expected to prove my value to a loudmouth that walked in a few weeks ago in a place I've worked in for >year because he can't figure out how to evaluate people - I…

So you're just googling post hoc and haven't actually looked into it. How scientific. This study [1] is what got me interested, they claim gray matter loss compares to control grou…

>you know--Scientists--without political agendas study this problem very carefully...and do not see any widespread effects from the vaccine after a year. ?? This entire thread is m…

You're just being presumptive, overreaching in conclusions and overconfident in your narrative. I've seen two studies linked recently about long COVID. Neither included vaccination…

>There is no mechanism for the vaccine to have some long term effect that wouldn't be apparent within a short time period give the MASSIVE number of people who have received the va…

On one hand I'm being presented with avoiding long COVID sideffects as a reason to get vaccinated - on the other I get no proof that vaccination doesn't do similar harm and that it…

>The immune response from the vaccine works like any other type of vaccine immune response. You are assuming because the mechanism is the same that the effects will be as well - it…

>This isn't a meaningful claim for 2 key reasons. There has never been a vaccine that had serious side effects that did show up shortly after vaccination[2]. The history of mRNA tr…

I think this code is bad because it uses if/else (it should be if not abort) and it only tests/handles one error case and the log is not very valuable, would be much better to wrap…

TypScript is sort of this. It's the best of both worlds, if it wasn't built on top of JS legacy garbage type system and core types it would be ideal. But a powerful structural type…

I've coded in Clojure enough to know that there are cases where it completely sucks (mostly when you have to do imperative low level code). I used to have a link to a standard libr…

Money isn't everything, there's a status component related to those professions (especially if you are coming from poorer background) and a lot of people like the idea of being a d…

I mean if they can't get Apple to include them in this (like you said you can use BT magic keyboard so clearly there's a way built-in) they have no chance at getting touchid

To people saying this is caused by use - this is irrelevant - people are upset because they use other comparable cables this way and don't have these problems nearly as often. I've…

Logitech can't even connect to the laptop via BT before you are logged in, I doubt it will get this integration.

My problem with laser combos (printer + scanner) is that they are >50% larger than an inkjet with same features. Inkjet is just the right height where you can use it on a shelf/des…

Gold has actual utility

>The utility of cryptocurrencies is not decided by governments, or companies, or you. The utility will be decided by reality. No the utility is determined by you me and everyone el…

What is the utility provided by crypto ? Money laundering, avoiding capital controls, financial speculation ? All while burning insane amount of energy and hoging up limited chip m…

I don't disagree, but I can see why they want high growth. But if you choose that path you need to actively manage the pathological cases, especially the ones you create.

I feel like investing in market pathologies has become too common and modern democratic governments are far too slow at doing there roles and curbing such behaviour. Bitcoin is the…

Vote with your feet ?

I agree about PM/dev/customer part but disagree on dev/support rotation. This sounds great in theory, in practice working on any non-trivial software means there are parts you know…

I've tried watching technical tutorial videos but I often found people making them aren't really experts in the domain, so I end up watching impressions of a mediocre developer try…

People on this forum say EU - but they mean "rich parts of EU". Reality is EU has way more inequality between member states than the US, ironic given the propaganda.
