Sorry, can you just delete my account or ban it or whatever? I'm too tired.

No, it's not. Damore is (objectively) an asshole and doesn't earn any discussion. Choose any one of the (fairly unoriginal) points he was trying to make and talk about that.

Right but it's a such a lightning rod that it instantly derails any reasonable discussion. It's basically the Godwin's law of conversations about sex, gender, and political bias.

Sure, you can also find people who believe the Earth is flat... but the point is that they're not the majority. Not many people would argue that testosterone causes men to have increased muscle mass, for example. But they might take is

This is pseudo-academic posturing nonsense. The issue people take is attributing value to the differences between sexes, not the biological differences in themselves.

You're doing yourself a disservice by mentioning Damore at all. His manifesto may have had some points, but was also rife with utter bullshit, false equivalence, value judgements, and personal biases. Damore has also since proven himse

Yes and no, visitor badges often don't use RFID. You can get most places if you have a visitor badge and know someone's name (which are all available on LinkedIn). If you get stopped with a badge you can just say "Oh I'm

Not much of a story, I was being a fool and trying to go places I wasn't allowed and someone happened to be paying attention. Fortunately my friend working in security told them it was a planned test (it wasn't planned, but he kno

Fair take. The US could penalize/limit/tariff those outside megacorps like China does though, right? I'm not sure trade should be completely free when an outside competitor can skirt your local laws.

Which makes at least a little sense. Instagram makes it fairly difficult to share/reshare garbage (though it's gotten a bit worse lately) and encourages people to create their own garbage.

It's suspected that male pattern hair loss is a combination of genetics and testosterone. Melatonin will not impact your DNA or testosterone levels.

She's an outspoken supporter of Net Neutrality, which is definitely a stick in the eye for both Comcast and Verizon. Is there a candidate that has done more than Warren in this regard? (not criticizing, I'm legitimately curious)

I care, but I choose when to care... and when I do it's pretty high end. Some people go out to eat every week, I go maybe every other month... but when I do I make sure it's worth it.

You can go in the opposite direction and get frozen meals that cost ~$5 a piece. I eat a lot of pre-prepared tofu, dumplings (refrigerated, not frozen), fried tofu, meatless meatballs, etc... it definitely bucks the stereotype of salt-heavy

Maybe rethink that acronym. I figured people would take a couple minutes to educate themselves about the candidates, but I forgot that I wasn't in my home country.

Alright slow down there, chief. I'm making a comment on the internet, I'm not trying to sell your firstborn or something. I said that the US _lucked out_ in that China didn't industrialize first. I didn't say that indust

Spoiler alert: They probably won't be either way. Our population is too small by comparison, we just lucked out in that it took China/India longer to industrialize.

You're high if you think someone can compete with Amazon out of their garage now. Hell, you can't even sell a product on Amazon without a good chance that Amazon will just slap their Amazon Basics logo on it and undercut you to de

She's called out Comcast before too — don't jump to the conclusion that someone can't chew gum and walk at the same time without at least a 10 second Google.

I am way too lazy to grind and don't want a dedicated appliance for it, so I just buy cheap pre-ground. I personally can't tell the difference between good and mediocre beans with cold brew.

That's why I use one of these steel-mesh filters. I used cheesecloth before and it was super annoying. https://www.amazon.com/KLEIN-Cold-Brew-Kit-Concentrate/dp/B0...

I drink it straight, but probably end up drinking half as much by volume. It's really easy to drink too much and end up in jitter-town.

I just cold brew my coffee. Amazon has a good reusable filter that drops in to a large mason jar. I make 3-4 jars a week (You literally just add ground coffee, water, and wait 24 hours). Even mediocre beans taste pretty good as cold brew.
