Not sure students are necessarily benefiting? The point of education isn’t to hand in completed assignments. Although my wife swears that the Duolingo AI is genuinely helping her with learning French so I guess maybe, depending on how it’s being used

I remember hearing about somewhere - alphabet or meta or something like that - that basically provided adult crèche facilities for the employees. Way beyond just food - On-site nap rooms. Washing machines. Showers. The works. All to enable just a super unhealthy attitude towards work. Thinking about how much that must’ve affected anyone going there straight after uni when they should have been leaning how to look after themselves makes me shudder with cringe

There’s always some percentage of people who are ignorant of global issues and want to stay out of things… You’d think they were Farage voters but actually they usually don’t vote

All social media can be anonymous if you want it to be ;)

I’m sorry you lost me there mate. Let’s take them in order

I’m not and have never been a political candidate.

The performative outrage of which I speak is people encouraging that the Democrats be punished despite the explicitly stated desire and highly probable outcome of the Republicans enabling greater atrocities, whilst disregarding the harder and more useful work of pushing individuals to oppose the genocide within the existing system of reality

What is this even meant to mean? This is precisely the performative outrage of which I speak, and it doesn’t even carry semantic weight. It’s just useless pseudo-accusatory sentiment

Performative outrage is so much easier than working towards real change though!

There were moments in its history when it maybe wasn’t as bad as the competition, but it’s not been great of late

But he was the one I was looking for

Yeah that’s clearly Prince

Alas, doesn’t fit my purpose since it requires action by the script user. I usually just use perl in those situations

I can never get grep to work consistently on Mac and Linux. Now, ripgrep OTOH…

This site is so good. Have found literally everything I’ve ever looked for there. Sometimes the torrents take a few hours to get trickling, but there are some absolute heroes seeding there

Damn it. Gonna have to be bacon, curse my carbon footprint

I’m not sure you and I have the same notion of what a ‘totalitarian state’ is, but c’est la vie. Have a nice day

Intense read of the situation. If he gets Epsteined then maybe you’re right, but we’re not quite talking ‘reporting a subversive to a totalitarian state’ here - ostensibly there’s still rule of law.

Oh come on, you might not agree with them employee but he (probably) murdered a man - not everyone’s willing to give a free pass on the ‘right murder’ and I don’t think they should be threatened with violence over this disagreement

I remember Linus saying in an interview that he’d only really been involved in git for the first 6 months or so and that the other devs had managed it without him since then. This makes sense - Linus’s creations aren’t successful because he’s the only person who understands them, they’re successful because there are so many other collaborators on them.
