I would not like this. This is the kind of change that made google search so annoying. (Eg what if I want to track the history of 'self-driving' vs 'auto pilot' in sales pitches? Or more basically, what if the system…
So does 'mark' and 'Mark', that doesn't mean I correct everyone (or myself) every time they/I type my name without using a capital letter.
This sort of language policing is pointless.
But no one, including the government, is omniscient. This turns all agency into "exploitation", and the only logical conclusion is that all decisions for all people should be made by the most informed. Surely you don't…
Not all laws are are meant to protect people from themselves, most laws aren't. Murder isn't illegal because we want to protect people from the results of their actions, it's illegal because we want to protect people…
I don't get it , he's buying stuff at estate sales. That's literally what they're for. I didn't understand what part of his behavior you consider uncouth. As he already said, they're almost always run as a very detached…
Yes, I think the argument that "discrimination is fine so long as it doesn't result in complete shutout of a vendor/customer" is reasonable. But that argument didn't fly for the cake controversy case, so society doesn't…
Why does it change whether it's discrimination or not depending on who does it? I don't see how the distinction is material.
What is your justification for that? If an employer did the same thing, would you argue that's also not discriminatory? Or, to pick a notorious example, if a cake shop only agreed to sell to straight couples, would that…
Are you literally defending corruption? Why?
Mobile platforms are entirely useless to me for exactly this reason, individual islands that don't interact to make anything more generally useful. I would never use any os that worked like that, it's for toys and…
Whom is on its way out anyway; I don't think I ever use it at all and certainly never hear anyone else use it.
Could you summarize this into an argument of your own?
This argument seems to be a) intentionally provocative and intending only really to ruffle feathers, not actually put a coherent argument forward And b) about on par with saying "water is evil" because if you drink too…
I've had recurring headaches my entire life. Have been to many neurologists, none have any idea what causes them, they just give me different pills to prevent them instead. This isn't unusual for headaches, quite often…
Isn't that exactly what these sort of things are about? No one is inspired (which is usually the point of the factoids) by "this person made marginal contributions to the field for 30 years and then retired".
In Atlanta suburb, I've never seen one, only normal looking vans.
But there's literally a child-safe mode, which was not activated. (I don't know the details of this mode, I know nothing other than what was told to me in the article, so it's possible that kids mode is worthless. But…
I mean, yeah, it's not great even for a regular non-child-mode. But then that has nothing to do with anyone's age, it's just 'send me nudes' isn't a good continuation of the conversation.
""I would think that there would be a warning or something that would pop up that would say, you know, 'Are you 13-plus?'"" Is that not what kids mode is for?
I swear I went home from work but then got fired from my job for falling asleep at my desk. I don't understand what happened. (And even if I did fall asleep at my desk, who fires an employee for falling asleep once?)
Pypy's tracing JIT has worked pretty well for years, so that doesn't seem universal. I admit I have fairly low expectations on a JIT succeeding (in any meaningful fashion) in cpython given the constraints that it…
"The same way that a speed limit, age of consent, or drinking age doesn't get reduced to nobody can drive, have sex, or drink." I really don't understand your logic here. Are you not saying "Steam shouldn't be allowed…
What is your justification for this position? How does this not reduce to "steam shouldn't sell games that aren't fit for toddlers"?
This sounds like "you shouldn't suggest that long COVID is psychosomatic because doing so makes me or others feel bad" to me. Which part of what you're saying am I misunderstanding?
