Yes, prenantal exposure to hormones is one thing but I was specifically referring to GP's frankly controversial implicit claim that gay men possess lower T.

Anyway if I recall correctly that research suggests that higher prenantal T exposure increases likelihood of homosexuality, the opposite of what stereotypes might suggest

I haven't ever seen a reputable study that proves a significant connection between T levels and sexual orientation in humans

Drives. OP explains the typo

Spot on re: learning curve, it absolutely requires a test run or two before you'll get it right

That speaks more negatively to that tired SV motto than it speaks positively to the leaded gasoline guy.

There is no fucking way I'm stepping onto a commercial airliner without highly trained human beings at the helm. That is my SWE/"stemlord" take-- complex software systems, or at least the organizations that produce them, are generally not to be trusted with your life.

And nothing of value was lost

It's what the CEO wants you to know not what you objectively should know

Yes the system is broken

LOL

Cool to see a logo for an open source project that isn't terrible

I liked the magazine-oriented things they did like the fashion do's and don'ts, the music reviews, the johnny ryan comic segments and the richard kern features. Their physical issues were pretty high quality for something that you could grab from yoir local spot for free. That era has been long-gone for a while now though, so this isn't a huge loss in that respect

>any identified facade repairs must also be approved by LPC[3] which likely adds to the substantial burden on low(er)-income co-ops/condo corporations.

Well that finally somewhat explains why most new housing being constructed in nyc is so insanely ugly

>Personally, I think we've reached the limits of "computers do exactly what you ask them to do, to a fault.

Good point, maybe this is the dawn of a new kind of computer engineering, a higher level, fundamentally social one.

We already see people "hacking" chatGPT to reveal its system prompts or get around its given boundaries using nothing but clever conversational logic tricks.

>Why extend that risk?

What risk? Wouldn't it increase the likelihood of a purchase to begin with?

"Content creators" (assuming by that you mean those who are trying to make a living off the platform) are mostly irrelevant.

Youtube's main source of revenue is ads which they serve regardless of whether the uploader is taking a cut from the upload or not. Most users have always and will continue to upload to and consume from youtube without the expectation of making money from the process.

So, yes in general users have historically been more or less satisfied with the deal: watch ads, get free video platform.

Sidenote: how does substack get my email address? I don't have an account with this site but they autofilled the "subscribe" field with my email address.

This article frames the situation as if Quora once took off, and was once good, which I very much disagree with. Quora never "took off" by way of being good/helpful. It was all just forced SEO. Quora was dead on arrival to me

Seems like Apple is well capable of enabling secure messaging to and from outside the Apple-ecosystem and are using security as a red herring, in that case.

I don't understand why people are using Spotify to get data instead of Discogs?

It should be Discogs. Discogs is by far the largest publicly-accessible music database on the web.

Why not? What if the answer is linked to via comment?

Your coworkers are not your friends and your company is not your family, and if your job is keeping you from having friends and family outside of work then you need to find a new job or place to live.

Obsidian is too clunky for a daily driver text editor. Compare to Sublime. Obsidian also sometimes breaks. Last week it gave me a fully white window, I couldn't use it at all despite a reinstall. It should be ported to a C lang or similar.

Twitter would be the party mailing the letter to Nitter, and Nitter is mailing it to the end user. Nitter is responsible for mailing it to the end user. It doesn't matter that they originally got it from Twitter or aliens from Uranus. The mail company is Firefox browser.

Is there a way to mute the speaker while the translation audio is playing? I'm hearing both voices simultaneously, is that intended?

Yeah crossovers are pointless. I had to sit in the back row of a crossover where every seat was full and ended up having the driver pull over due to claustrophobia. My head was against the ceiling and I could barely move. I'm 6' tall, not small but not a basketball player.

Isn't the IRS supposed to refund you the difference eventually anyway?

It's likely more ageism than sexism

That they won't stick around long enough
