The point I was probably trying to make is that I suspect that the author of this study and the accompanying article probably has a particular political axe to grind. That's mostly just conjecture, though. Moral panics are nothing new,

Good question, I'm not sure there's necessarily one answer to that. That same sort of question arises in many places, though. Some people avoid watching trailers for movies or shows because they don't want to get spoiled by t

“To many conservatives, trigger warnings are a symptom of a world gone mad: a fragilizing ritual meant to insulate the delicate worldview of a weak-minded generation.” Conservatives routinely get upset about the presence of gay people in me

What about stuff like movie and game ratings? What about things like restricting sexually explicit material to minors? Seems like a weird point to make. What I like about content warnings is that I can choose whether I want to engage with s

All the poorer people I know are very skilled at saving small amounts of money on things, e.g. pirating shows, using a cheap old phone, knowing where to find the cheapest groceries, and so on. I know that I've gotten a lot lazier about

If I understand Yglesias' point, tech executives got annoyed that twitter would grant verification to journalists that gave them negative press attention? Why is everyone so obsessed with blue checks? Don't tech executives have th

This article doesn't mention the one article of faith every crypto utopian I've run into really believes: the US dollar and every other currency will collapse soon and be replaced by crypto.

It's worth considering how recent advances in things like gay rights are, and how much more is left for things like trans rights. Why should I care more about debate club than about being able to make medical decisions for my significa

Most liberal countries have restrictions on outright hate speech. It's definitely possible to be a liberal and also oppose the right of Nazis to advocate for mass genocide.

How do you explain the situation in Japan? Their money supply has grown steadily over the last couple decades, yet they've seen basically no inflation. See: https://tradingeconomics.com/japan/money-supply-m2 and:

Something like Axie Infinity just seems _incredibly_ cynical. I sometimes joke that stuff like professional sports are just financial instruments, which only incidentally involve a ball of some sort. Play-to-earn and many crypto schemes see

From within a VPC, you can either access DynamoDB via its public internet endpoints (eg, dynamodb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com, which routes through an Internet Gateway attachment in your VPC), or via a VPC endpoint for dynamodb that's dire

Eugenics isn't just selective breeding, it's the extension of genetics to traits such as "intelligence" or "criminality." These sorts of things are broadly non-hereditary.
