A weird comment to make to someone who already has children, but I guess at least we can all be happy that my kids are being raised by parents that can read?

I'm sorry but your summary of what I posted is so selective that I have to assume you're replying in bad faith.

> If you claim to be changing your life in any way in response to this then you're just putting a fig leaf on decisions that you've already made. How insulting. Bad faith arguments…

What? This happened a few blocks from my home: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/08/17/dc-arrest... As did this: https://www.thedailybeast.com/ice-goons-tear-down-pro-im…

what an insanely insulting reply. this site sucks now.

Yes, this article is about the US. And I live in a place single digit blocks from multiple places where ICE agent behavior has made national headlines. I have no financial reservat…

The fall of this site after 2016 has been sad to watch. Basically turned into low-volume reddit.

Living in a city that this administration has constantly been attacking forced me and my wife, as well as many of our neighbors, to put off our family growth plans. Not only did ma…

I suspect anyone using wikipedia do justify their inability to find a partner is generally undesirable.

Kind of on brand for this site these days, tbh. A brand of anti social that believes disruption done for anything but monetary gain deserves extreme punishment, regardless of circu…

I think you're right, unfortunately. Looking at the causes and the current actions of the US government (and, other governments worldwide tbh), this looks like an almost deliberate…

What does this even mean? You literally say that you were working harder than your coworkers. Was your job under threat or something? This just sounds like an unhealthy case of imp…

I certainly consider myself a skeptic in the current AI craze, but this entire piece (of which I find the technical criticisms interesting) just reads like attack on Altman/OpenAI.…

So turning cafes into coworking spaces? They even use AirBnb as the base example, and we've seen how that's gone for cities around the world. This sounds tragic.

Commenters in this thread citing NPR as a reason that dollars shouldn't go towards helping kids learn how to count and not be antisocial is the kind of win right wing media could o…

I do find it tiring that tech oriented people still feel the need to denigrate people who are in the arts or athletes (tbh lumping them in with podcast grifters may be the greatest…

> As often as OpenAI is maligned in the press, everyone I met there is actually trying to do the right thing. I appreciate where the author is coming from, but I would have just le…

I think the last few years (probably longer, it's just more pronounced now) have shown us the social impact of lowering the time kids spend together, particularly at school. This p…

The article is clear that this was a reversal, or are you questioning the integrity of Ars for the original scoop?

Curious -- To me it just seemed pretty standard (for any industry). Did you think the tech work environment today was somehow more enlightened than previous generations general wor…

This doesn't make any sense. You stood outside of an airport for an hour instead of walking over the the taxi stand where the taxis that you're so worried about were idling waiting…

You'll be shocked to learn there's more to sf than soma and the pier. Visit sometime.
