> Guess what, everything offends some minority somewhere.

No. It does not. It most definitely does not. This is a lame excuse, and also a blatant lie.

Nobody has said or implied it does.

> It doesn't offend me at all.

Which means this is NOT ABOUT YOU. The fact that something does not bother you has absolutely zero impact on how other people feel about that same thing.

Yes, and it was a joke in very bad taste that belittles the very real issues people have with this.

No, it is not.

Wind turbines do not make that kind of noise. It's always, every single time, people angry about their view or any kind of change at all.

Every single time.

No, it's a pretty safe bet that any of these complaints about wind turbines is just NIMBYism. It happens every single time.

Yes, you would be much better off doing that.

The thing Swift has over Rust is a laser focus on language ergonomics. This is what really sells me on the language. It makes it extremely expressive and clear.

> Especially not considering countries have been opening up for ~3 weeks now, moving more towards the model Sweden has had since day one, and so far no effect on infections or hospitalizations have been observed.

This did not happen automatically. This happens because those countries first got infections under control, and put systems in place to keep them under control.

> There is no convincing evidence that Sweden’s approach has led to a materially worse outcome

Four thousand people would like to have a word with you, but can't, because they are dead.

Its neighbours have managed death rates of nearly one TENTH of Sweden. The difference in timing of the outbreaks was one or two weeks. That certainly should not account for a factor of ten difference.

And yes, some number of deaths is inevitable. That does not mean that every life saved isn't still a life saved. There is not a set quota of deaths that will inevitably happen, and you can choose to have them happen sooner rather than later. Any extra deaths will mostly be on top of the number of unpreventable deaths.

Because I am holding bitcoin, and I will go broke if the price drops.

That is always the reason.

You think it is worth debating whether massive troll farms spreading misinformation and stoking hatred and division on a nation-state scale is good or bad?

"The Valley's ideology" is to drag your feet, do as little as humanly possible, and to make vapid appeals to freedom of speech rather than do anything about rampant, massive-scale abuse of their services causing real and actual harm to people and society in general.

HTTPS tells me that I am definitely downloading this package from GitHub. But what exactly am I downloading from GitHub? No clue.

What part of the article is wrong, though?

He is not a credible source on this, or pretty much anything else. He has some utterly reprehensible views, and is part of a very questionable cult of self-important people.

The OS provides functionality to set up the GPU and to compile code for it, and to shove samples into a sound card. That is it.

FBI isn't exactly a trustworthy source of psychology. Psychologists and the DSM do not recognise it as a real thing.

Here is the backstory of how it was created: https://twitter.com/sezmohammed/status/1252500993972948992

Yes, just like Stockholm Syndrome, it was made up to cover up a bungled police response. Neither one is a real thing.

I think System 7 is by far more the more timeless of the two aesthetics.

Is it maybe a little bit weird to be doing research on old corpses that were just dragged out of their graves in a foreign country?

The only reason CMake is considered better than automake is because automake is so unimaginably dreadful. CMake is a lot worse than pretty much any competent piece of software.

Civil disobedience against a volcano really doesn't have anything to do with thought or nuance.

Or, for that matter, against a virus.

In your DNA to the point that if you get told "don't do this, for your own safety", you immediately go "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO" and go risk your lives for absolutely no reason.

I... just, what exact message are you trying to send with that? Because I can't think of one that is not just massively bad.

Yes, absolutely. The man is causing obvious harm and danger.

It will 100% be filled with scammy and fraud apps instantly.

A company focusing on delivery can do the job more efficiently and competently. Just the fact that they can route deliveries more effectively instead of going restaurant-customer-restaurant is a big win.
