Sigh... really? This is reddit-level "Yakov Smirnoff" of rebuttals. But I'm going to break it down for you anyway and operate on the shared assumption of good faith since you may h…

Yeah I see your point, it's unfortunate there is not an automated pre-interview system (like GPT meets Eliza) that could flag these people such that actual women aren't exposed to …

I don't know... I feel like putting her into that position exposed her to a lot of negative energy that she may not have necessarily received in the first place. If I personally wa…

I'm not trying to invalidate this woman's experiences, because if they are genuinely true as written down, then that is some seriously toxic misogynistic shit, but some of the quot…

I mean... this sounds like the exact job that "git blame" is made for. Does your company not have some kind of version control?

While that might be true, from an outsiders perspective looking at things like: the anti-immigration agenda, the death penalty, and the almost willful refusal by a large minority t…

Reminds me of that W.C. Fields quote — 'I am free of all prejudice. I hate everyone equally. '

He specifically refuted the claim that it was "pedophilia and gore"; your response, while raising valid criticisms, has nothing to do with those two things.

Attribution is irrelevant if you're lifting them wholesale - and you're really stretching the definition of "fair use" since you're not obtaining consent from the actual content cr…

I had the same experience moving from visual studio 2017 to visual studio 2019. I tried disabling every possible IntelliSense related feature and there was always a small but perce…

Most composers were musicians before that and a lot of instruments adhere to scales such as fretted instruments or percussive instruments like the piano. Using scales gives people …

Good stuff, but since it seems like there is a lot of pedantic responses to this post I'm going to chip in myself and say that most traditional gospel renditions of amazing Grace a…

This didn't really feel like an explanation or an answer as to why you believe sex work is not "real work". What exactly are the characteristics of real work? Once you've defined t…

I understand what you're saying wrt to rtf versus text but I completely disagree and I say this as somebody who used to have all of my notes in thousands of plain text files. I've …

This comment is absurd and contradictory, if the software is supposed to be the equivalent of "grabbing a scrap of paper and scratching something down" then at bare minimum it need…

I read the Wikipedia entry for it but it didn't really shed a lot of light on these types of questions: 1. Can I embed images and more specifically can I embed animated GIF files? …

Anything which is Reddit level of quality in terms of contributing value. For example, low hanging puns that add no actual substantial information.

Your hangups about not reading two books at once and being contractually obligated to finish a book are interesting but I'm not sure that they're culturally normative, I've certain…

Without divulging details, a riffle force has zero risk and can be easily mastered in a day. The exact mechanics of a force are the point of the post. Also given your handle, I hon…

I'm saying this somewhat in jest, but this would give disproportionate political influence to families with larger quantities of children. And don't sit here and tell me with a str…

Regular glasses also "cover your eyes", you are aware that AR uses transparent lenses right? They augment the world around you, they don't take away from it.

This is one of those ideas that seems nice in theory but in practice would just lead to so many subtle problems especially if it happened automatically. Lots of programs create tem…

Heh, I can speak rudimentary Italian, so I used to do the same thing when I was studying Chinese. Percentage of people I knew in Taiwan who could speak English: 40% Percentage of p…

You can actually hide the falling notes and switch to sheet only in Synthesia, this was a much requested feature update made years ago.
