Thanks for the quick reply! I'm really in the same boat as you, as I do not want to create a system where an "identity police" can create eligibility by the length of noses. > When you make that official policy [...]…

+1, and that is why the question "And what about parents?" might play an even bigger role than others.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I see "race" as a problematic variable as well. That's why I like to talk about origin, as in "what did the parents do?", "do the kids have access to careers outside of what their…

Thank you for your reply! To my surprise, you say you disagree but are very close to what I wrote before. > for making people adopt inappropriate solutions to a much earlier problem I don't see where we are disagreeing…

Good question, and since I am not a sociologist, I can only guess. One thing in advance, and as a reaction to the received downvotes: my usage of the word "identification" has nothing to do with "identity politics" that…
Hot topic, but your comment has some good points I'll try to add my experience to. > I'm for removing barriers to anyone being able to be interested, educated, and encouraged to do the things they want to do. And we…
Regarding "engagement rate": is your banner filtered by ad blockers? In my session, there's no banner displayed. Could also be a hint on why mobile browsers are more likely to enable engagement, since they might lack…
Sorry if my comment came in kinda offensive, it's a general stance I was criticizing, not your project in particular! Your offer is based on an existing demand, so who should feel addressed are those who use solutions…

Why? Sadly, there's not much motivation described in the README. You state "Let's move your Medium content to your very own website" and then you push it to Github and Netlify, which are yet another silos. Good work…
Wrote the same in another comment.. it's kinda brilliant but sad to watch at the same time. Microsoft's Github guys are geniuses if this is a part of a long-running EEE strategy. And people fall for it, because they…

While I really like the idea of creating more complex policies at the edge, please remember that Cloudflare Workers are a vendor lock-in. If you proxy your servers with Cloudflare and use their API for more than simple…
But why.. every sane programmer uses Python 3 and pip in a virtualenvwrapper environment, cleanly separated for non-pip packages!
They are outraged _now_? Do they know how much power Google concentrates by hording and analysing user data? And how much political/economical influence this introduces? IMO this is way more dangerous than the military…
Prime example of failed business models and their desperate attempts to survive. I'm really disappointed about how online publishers handle the decline of ad revenue. Of course my ad-blocker will also block your miner…
Maybe it's an idea to collect some break points/strategy turns that can be observed in other companies with similar structure and product as your (future) company. And then discussing the causes, possible actions and…
You can use ffmpeg for this, using "copy" for audio and video, but setting "-ss <hh:mm:ss.0>" for the start time and "-t <seconds>" for the length of your cut beginning from the start timestamp given with -ss.
