BTW, that was literally the joke Dave made. That progress on LGBTQ rights was so fast that they can still use their white privilage against people who look like Dave if they are both white and LGBTQ+. Meanwhile people who marched with MLK j

I agree with your points but his particular joke was about transphobia vs racism. That trans and gay people can turn on their white privilage in a second to attack black people, including using cops to attack black people, knowing cops are

I think we really need to limit how many one can own. Start taxing very very very heavily for anything beyond a second home for individuals and and anything beyond another number based on statistics for a company. Also add attitional tax fo

My team just does a weekly virtual meeting specifically for those social aspects, we could discuss anything in those meetings but it usually turns into TV, games or movies. As well as occasionally doing office appropriate games like Jackbox

No this is colonial social conditioning. Those same white Europeans werent scoffing at Arab, Persian or Indian scholars in the Renaissance, Romans and Greeks intermarried with Egyptians and Indians, even in the midst of the Crusades Brungan

Not many good games these days. I recently played through Age Of Empires 3 and 4. I just dont like stuff like Elden Ring that is popular these days due to Dark Souls or every third person game being turned into an RPG with stats and invento

There is the CS's famed eletism and gate keeping. Just because its not Harvard or Stanford its not relevant? I am a CS grad myself but there is so much toxicity in the community when looking at places like HN. And I am not saying anyt

"Arab mujahdeen"? That word just proves you know nothing and arent interested in learning because a tiny fact check would tell you that you meant Afghan mujhadeen let alone knowing that off the top of your head when making your in

Yes. In most discussions I see about the resignation people on both sides seem to forget that those numbers of infections or deaths were actual people who had jobs but now can't work. And many of these were essential workers who made v

Some censorship needs to be accepted as anti terror measures. If you white people were ok with random brown people being pulled aside by TSA for random checks after 9/11, I as a brown progressive am ok with your Christian white Taliban

Just do stuff. The world has a lot of terrible problems and being in your unique position, you could start to tackle those that are close to you. Eg,climate change,public transport, homelessness, hunger, etc. E.g. If I had that kind of mon

I think the problem is CLRS is extremely dry and can easily put you to sleep so people do just enough to pass or get a good grade and forget about it. As a math grad, I think you had the advantage of having a lot more theory. Ideally more a

I am surprized no one me tioned we could just limit home ownership to 2-3 for individuals and lets say 20 or so for a company. The actual limits can be decided based on discussion and metrics but just having a limit, any limit could stop co

Then get a pi-top instead of this. That takes a normal rasbperry pi 4 and puts it into a huge case and takes away part of the use case for the pi being so small

I dont think there was a way to make a device this small and powerful without making it this tight and difficult to open. Your point is valid for laptops who try this or promote thin and light to have an excuse to do this.

I think part of it is that there are't enough former software devs or engineers or data scientists in congress or the senate. The only programmer/politician I can name is Mayor Pete. Andrew Yang doesn't count since he was mor

The only tangible clue you mentioned that didn't rely on "it sounds absurd" was the fact that it was initially cross posted with r/Drama and I agree with you on that point. If journalists could easily see that, they shou

yes, my question is, WHAT should have tipped the journalists off? If this was some elaborate puzzle what were the actual clues? or are they just supposed to dismiss anything that "sounds" unusual. And that goes for both cases, th

But in cyber security based software woulden't you need constant updates against new exploits? In something like Fusion 360 or Matlab or office I agree, if you dont need new features you shoulden't pay for updates.
