> "Cancelling" is not a good thing when it's done by a mob of knee-jerk reactionaries with the attention span of a fruit fly.

Why not? How much time and effort have to go in to recognizing shitty behavior (cat calling, brown face, jerking off in front of someone without consent, etc)?

Besides, if they have such a short attention span, they can't cancel anyone -- canceling only works if you keep shunning them for a long period of time.

Canceling is a good thing. People should be held to account for their actions. Further, people should be willing to take responsibility for their actions.

This is peak modern Silicon Valley: privatize the revenue for the product, socialize[0] the costs (by clogging up courts, in this case). It's not remotely scalable.

0: I don't agree with this vernacular, it's just what the kids say.

It's true. However, if toxic users drive out all the non-toxic users, will those toxic users pay real money for the platform? Will they even remain at all if they can't get the reactions they (seem to) thrive on?

> For all the talk about minimum wage jobs, only around 1% of jobs actually pay federal minimum wage.

I see this stat a lot and it leaves me wondering how many people are within, say, 50 cents or 5%[0] of minimum wage. The percent of workers earning minimum wage doesn't seem that useful (and I guess neither would the figures returned for my request).

In any case I'd find hours required to live alone within ~30 minutes of work a more compelling statistic. It adjusts for CoL and represents a reasonable lifestyle to shoot for.

0: not suggesting these are equivalent figures

Me too, and KMS is key management system or software. But I'm more in the devops side of the industry.

Not just an established culture but a product with a long history of success despite its jank and problems. I appreciate the enthusiasm of new hires but often they don't understand priorities or that the goal is profit and not perfection (for most of us).

See the movies Parts: The Clonus Horror or the spiritual remake The Island for an alternative that works without kidnapping.

Thanks, I had no idea this was a thing on iOS.

I have yet to see a single interactive notification. What settings do you have to configure to get Slack to let you reply from a notification?

> Samsung phones does 4 years of updates now.

That's really, really poor. I mean it's good for the Android ecosystem but their biggest competitor is at six+.

edit: replaced "almost twice that number of years" with "six+".

Android notifications can be more interactive. They're you perform quick actions like reactions to slack messages or archiving emails. Basically the things you can do on an Apple Watch but not the iPhone.

A particularly famous example are the South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. I don't have a handy list of other people that have made the same or similar statements.

That post text is the same color as a downvoted comment is truly baffling to me. What benefit could that possibly have?

In tiny, gray text, with words that look similar to those with imperfect eyesight. It could easily be improved without breaking the site's entire aesthetic, IMO.

> Not making a decision is, in itself, a decision with consequences.

And this is why so much energy is spent convincing you that your vote doesn't matter or that both sides are the same, etc.

If I could (without hassle) I'd use a different identity per commit. I don't see any value in consistent identity here. Maaaybe if I was using it for a resume.

It's possible it didn't cost that much to develop, or that what they did develop can be used for non-plus products. Might have been deemed worth a small risk.

I object to the idea that they must be platformed by reddit and the like, but they can go ahead and create their own company to host their hateful content. I am in favor of network neutrality.

I don't really care if the saying will have an impact on them. As far as I'm concerned they're unreachable -- at least I have zero chance of convincing them of anything, especially if I can only talk with them in a hate forum.

> Saying things like "first they came for the neo-Nazis..." completely misses the point.

I think the folks using this form understand the history of the saying but are deliberately changing it to show they are OK with the bans as long as they are limited to neo-nazis and the like.

Once it moves past these neo-nazi recruitment forums we can start worrying about whether or not it is a slippery slope.

According to the article they did.

How did the FSA operator (or whatever they are called) know about the transaction, and so quickly?

Not optimistic -- the "considers" in the title doesn't help.

I wasn't able to join qoto so I gave up. The join screen never got past the display name/email/etc form but also showed no error. (This is with the official iOS app, I can only assume it's no better or worse on other apps).

It feels plenty fast for me, what have you found to be slow? I wouldn't have thought it was non-native. Is it React Native or something?

Are we still talking about math books or did you mean to post this elsewhere?

The obvious approach would be to copy the code for an existing function, I think.

That's just it, I couldn't figure that out. There's "always" a trick, so I've read in some forums.

> Would you be less frustrated if it came with a disclaimer, along the lines of "this is not a trick question"?

Definitely. That would make it more clear it's about SE and not stupid brain tricks.
