I think you are poor moderator acting in bad faith, if you think I violated all those guidelines. Is that a personal attack? Is that against the guidelines? I'm not interested in being a part of a community that finds…
I've considered this, and I don't agree with you. This was not a personal attack (the guidelines you posted also don't forbid personal attacks, they discourage name-calling). Not my site, so please ban my account.

As someone who has struggled with physical and mental addictions for my entire life: breaking a physical addiction is trivially easy compared to breaking a mental addiction. And breaking a physical addiction is really…
This makes no sense in Zuckerberg's case: he was never hired by the board and they've never had a chance to fire him. Investors can sell the stock if they don't like what he does, but that is not a "professional…

If anything it's been replaced with a far more naive and gullible cohort, not a more skeptical one.
I love it when my counterparty's breach of contract is my fault because I foolishly trusted that they would do what they said they would in exchange for my money. I'm sure you also believe that she was asking for it…

This makes no sense at all. The business needs to make money to pay you. Your time is the development cost of the software. It is completely reasonable and rational for a company to say, "This is valuable to us if it…

It's not tricky at all. When you're the richest country in the world and you have a lower than average tax rate, there is one very simple trick that gets rid of the debt problem.
If you think that community needs a group of strangers to con them into coming together and being more than the sum of its parts, you are more cynical than I am.
A couple of thoughts: 1) The story of stone soup is the story of how some grifters got a free meal. I don't think it's moral instruction, or an example to be learned from, unless you are a grifter. 2) In the stone soup…
You can save one life for a lot cheaper than the countless billions poured into OpenAI. This might be the least efficient life-saving intervention in history, and that's before calculating for harm caused.
The author 1) created the ticket and its estimation 2) assigned it to Jerry without further comment 3) had another ticket created and assigned to Jerry without talking to Jerry about it 4) got mad when Jerry closed what…
If you think an executive that ignores court orders is going to survive for a long time in America, I am willing to bet any amount of dollars against you at any odds. It's a good bet for me, because if I lose, dollars…

The efficiency argument isn't really about macro-efficiency, it's about micro-efficiency. It's not, "with my lightning fast editing speed, I will drop 10k lines today", it's about writing this method faster so I can run…
You're moving the goalposts. People did not, in fact, vote for DOGE.
But that growth period also came after the largest Marxist redistribution of wealth from the rich to the poor that's ever happened in America.
You can still use vanilla-OO React. Do you complain when other frameworks add new features without breaking backwards compatibility?
React is almost 12 years old and has dominated frontend development for almost a decade. I'd bet most JS backend projects still use Express as the webserver, and it's even older than React. Can we please retire this…
