Ah, I see you too are a gentleman of culture.
When I'm trying to take care of basic bodily functions, I don't need some exec using it as an opportunity to manipulate me into workplace / social interaction.
Yeah I do my most productive conversations when I'm rushing to do a big shit.
A frosted sliding door couldn't cut it? what a stupid engineering decision. All of this looks like a dystopian nightmare. Glad I never worked in big tech.
Hackernews has plenty of posts that have nothing to do with digital platforms.
If people can post about China's human rights violations against Uyghurs, the same can be posted about Israel's human rights violations in Palestine.
What a waste of electricity for a stupid religion.
The anti-theft argument is a bit over stated. 1. The thief would probably still find the tracker. 2. You would probably still lose connection/track of the device. 3. Police would probably still be reluctant to travel to…
Hopefully the obnoxiously loud people will learn that no one wants to hear their crap at work (or anywhere else). Your take on race? I don't care Your take on gender? I also don't care Your take on politics? Nope, don't…
No thanks, I'd rather own my home. We should be working towards the practical goal of making owning a home practical again. I don't want to live in some box owned by a collective.
Is it an American thing to vigorously defend corporations from accountability to the public? Twitter and even here seem full of people defending Peloton when clearly there have been enough incidents to warrant some…
And yet I'd never want to go through the brutal/grinding process of a PhD in the United States. You guys have it really bad in terms of workload, length and insane costs.
HackerNews usually: But they're a private company, they can do what they want!!! Reality is Spotify and other companies are trying to corner the podcast market, this is going to lead to more censorship in this space.…
It's not at all political to state a well known situation. Afterall, Hackernews probably wouldn't allow Holocaust denial on the board. Mentioning people who live under Israel's apartheid conditions is completely…
Don't like it? Don't use it. Afterall, private organizations can do what they want according to the mantra repeated here. At least that was the defense for social media organizations implementing censorship and bans.
My point is completely justified when you read the article attached (and much of the comments here).
99% of the opposition to Signal integrating cryptocurrency payment seems to be from people who generally disagree with the idea of cryptocurrencies (the article has this position). These arguments of course are veiled…
Australia is riddled with this kind of Chinese pressure, particularly at universities. My university went as far as to install an ugly out of place confucious statue. This was followed by being pressured to cancel a…
It's really not a cool way to think about this. People all around the world have state sanctioned freedom of speech but are oppressed by the majority in their country. This infantile view of freedom of speech is simply…
Go tell that to all the minorities around the world who have state granted "freedom of speech" but are suppressed/controlled by mobs in other countries. It's counter to freedom of speech and it isn't acceptable.
This is the same idiotic phrase as "Freedom of Speech is not Freedom from Consequences". You know who else thinks this way? Many repressive countries such as those who control how women / minorities / etc behave in…
There is a big difference between fair accountability and the internet mobs that want to wipe out your whole reputation/career. We don't let internet mobs run courts yet we allow them to ruin people's lives for some…
The UN's main benefit is that it gets a bunch of nations around a table to discuss various issues. This is something that should not be underestimated. Unfortunately if the UN could directly exercise authority over…
I understand it but reject it. If it's a problem for the platform owners, I'll be even more political. Screw them.
