It's not that exposure doesn't have value. It's that unpaid positions start to collapse the industry if it becomes too common. SAG has minimum day rates for a reason. I imagine maj…

You responded to the wrong person. I didn't write that.

Generally agree with you. I guess I was looking at it a little differently. If I'm talking to an individual, the only thing that matters is what they can do to better themselves no…

This is much more convincing than dnissley's response to me. I wonder how many "incels" have suffered trauma in their childhood. I certainly don't expect people to just work throug…

I'm not convinced it's the same. When talking about dating, there are a bunch of stuff that you can do that boils down to "make yourself a better person." See: my list above. It's …

I'm assuming the rule is around because FB knows it's targeting isn't 100% accurate and it might ruffle feathers if an ad claims you're something you're not. I don't see that speci…

No where did I say doctors don't make mistakes. Everywhere did I say that you are much more likely to make mistakes than your doctors .

I didn't put much thought into that phrasing. Changed it to "settled" instead to better reflect reality.

Austin seems to take corp-speak to another level. See his response when they settled with the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation: https://news.ycombinator…

Someone responded with a good question but then deleted it: Aren't you allowed to disagree with your doctor? Sure, in the sense that you can get second opinions if you're extra con…

I see a couple different scenarios: 1. Do your own research -> see something concerning -> ask your doctor to verify/interpret -> follow doctor's orders 2. Do your own research -> …

I agree that leaping to conclusions isn't science. It doesn't get past the hypothesis stage and needs proper study. That said, if the massive reduction in flu cases isn't a result …

On the other hand, I don't think I've ever gotten a cold/the flu, at least not since I was a young kid, and I don't take much care to do anything on your list. Sure, I'll wash my h…

Not quite as simple as you make it out to be. Why should I let you scream "fuck you" over and over again in my coffee shop? Yeah yeah, maybe social networks are the new town square…

They generally have a reputation to uphold so others don't just get up and leave. Some rando leasing it to you can do whatever they want without worrying about any of that.

As someone who has written robot software, it's not as bad as you might think. You do a LOT of testing before hand, and you do system checks before committing to something. I was a…
