coinbasetwwa··on Twitter to employees: all office buildings closed, badge access suspended
“Karpathy”.. who??
coinbasetwwa··on Myocarditis after Covid vaccination: Research on possible long-term risks begins
I like the term “anti-pro-vaccine”, the media would simply refer to it as “anti-vax”
coinbasetwwa··on Meta fires a software engineer two days after he relocated from India to Canada
“Barely human”.. that’s a pretty nazi-esque way of looking at others. Perhaps people simply have different opinions and priorities.

The use of supposed mental illness being used to discount any opposing belief is terrifying. Did you ever stop and consider that maybe empathizing in this situation is wrong?
coinbasetwwa··on Meta fires a software engineer two days after he relocated from India to Canada
Yep, pretty much hits the nail on the head. It’s not so much about empathy vs. feigning it for internet points. I can empathize with the situation in OP, but not in an outsized proportion to what’s occurred in society in the past few years. The same folks repping “empathy” were laughing to the bank when humans were locked in cages for getting around the vaccine mandate in their own way.

There’s people who were forced to sell their homes, lost their jobs, and can’t move back to the place they grew up right here on American soil - in layman’s terms, I’m out of f’s to give.

Ya, after watching the bodily reactions of family members that led up to death in some cases I’d never go out on a limb to get that shot for a dollar. But the “lived experience” crowd sure don’t want to hear about mine.

You hit the nail on the head. It’s sad that people can’t see past their views to see the world for what it is.
coinbasetwwa··on Is algae the new kale?
If you want to turbo optimize your life and give up caffeine so your body can absorb non-heme iron be my guest. It’s far simpler to eat as omnivores as humans were meant to be, especially with so many factors on the scale against your favor.
coinbasetwwa··on Is algae the new kale?
Yep. People need meat.
coinbasetwwa··on Is algae the new kale?
Being vegetarian is extremely unhealthy, drives the obesity epidemic, and is far more likely to cause individuals to become depressed. Good luck getting heme iron, carnitine, carnosine, taurine, creatine, B12, Vit D, and DHA in a meat free diet.
coinbasetwwa··on The Navy SEAL–ification of Nerf
Culture seeps into toys, and firearms culture is back in a big way in America. I blame the federal assault weapon ban and 9/11 for popularizing the modern tactical firearm community.
coinbasetwwa··on If you die in the game, you die in real life
It would be pretty cool if duels were still legal, you could have some elaborate game living as an abstraction over a duel to settle your fued.
coinbasetwwa··on U.S. workers have gotten less productive – no one is sure why
Yes!!! Waterfall could solve this in many ways.
coinbasetwwa··on U.S. workers have gotten less productive – no one is sure why
You’re 100% right. That plus the fact that my employer tried to fire me for not taking an injection, I’m good on chilling.
coinbasetwwa··on NY Supreme Court reinstates NYC's fired unvaccinated employees, orders backpay
This is what 18 USC 242 was written for. Allowing for punishments up to the death penalty for depravation of rights under the color of law. You’d need a federal government who would be willing to prosecute such a case however, but it’s possible.
coinbasetwwa··on Marijuana users more prone to infections after knee, shoulder surgeries
Hasn’t it been common knowledge and established science that marijuana suppresses the immune system? This doesn’t come as a surprise to me.
coinbasetwwa··on Ask HN: Why don't I see gold at the end of the remote working rainbow?
I’ve got a life outside of work, working remotely tips the scales in my life’s favor. I can be whoever I wanna be, not just some dude getting bugged by my sandbagging coworker every 5 mins.
coinbasetwwa··on Counterintuitive web worker behavior
Lol what? Plenty of senior devs, leads and managers deal in absolutes.
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
I’ve seen plenty of weird conversations in the workforce like leaders living in an alternate reality than direct reports to hawk their views, yet never felt motivated to call them mentally ill. I don’t judge how people feel they need to speak to relate to anybody, especially under the influence of alcohol as Kanye was in that segment.
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
This is a weird take. Most folks are old enough to remember the pre trump-era internet and society where alternating views were allowed and engaged with as opposed to leading to bans and social cancellation. Conflating that with allowing people to shove views in your face is odd, your ability to tune out is distinctly different from one’s ability to broadcast.

Good thing we have Kanye’s physician in the comments to make that determination.
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
Thanks for pointing out the obvious. Amazing how many people miss this.
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
But you see, I disagree with them, so we have to take their rights away /s
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
Yes. “Everyone I disagree with is crazy” is a real thing and disgusting. Reading a psychology book and a couple pop news articles doesn’t make these people psychiatrists or psychologists.

I’m pretty sure all you need is a free speech platform with a tiktok style algorithm that suppresses the grimiest of toxicity. Such a platform would blow every other one of the park and have a rush of content creators. I believe as those engagement algorithms become more accessible we’ll see a clear winner emerge.

“No dude! They are totally insane people! We’re the smart ones here” /s
coinbasetwwa··on Kanye West is buying Parler
Because it’s just people arguing on conjecture that folks they disagree with are mentally ill. He is quite obviously sane if you hear him speak.
coinbasetwwa··on Micron picks Syracuse for computer chip plant that would bring up to 9k jobs
Any company supporting a state or country that is flagrantly violating the natural human rights of its citizens should be called out.
coinbasetwwa··on Micron picks Syracuse for computer chip plant that would bring up to 9k jobs
And that’s pretty weird that a company would set up shop with no regards to the human rights of its employees.
coinbasetwwa··on Micron picks Syracuse for computer chip plant that would bring up to 9k jobs
Don’t forget that Nassau county, NY is now requesting that people who upgrade their pistol licenses pee in a cup to test for drugs. True insanity in NYS.
