Reddit is full of Parasite SEO lately.

It's to be expected from a for-profit system.

"they legendarily drag out the cases they can, and there's near-monthly trials of cases of theft from trust accounts."

This goes on in the U.S. too, at least in my state.

The overly tribal, lack of nuance, is overwhelmingingly from the millennial generation. I don't see older people being like that.

Your comment begins like ai slop.

This hurts:

The next step will be Google or other companies in that space developing and deploying a new derogatory term for the web marking it as unclean, unruly, dangerous, bad (similar to “the Dark Web”) and making their abstraction the “safe” web.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it?

Regarding: "WordPress is managed by the WordPress Foundation"

The Foundation doesn't actually manage anything though, does it? WordPress.org is managed and owned by Mullenweg personally.

Isn't it just that WP Engine made their own Stripe plugin for Woo? Why is this being called out as wrong?

This says they've prepared a solution. Does anyone know what the solution is? Did WP Engine build a whole fork of the plugin and theme repositories?

No.

No, it doesn't block those.

"Stripe will no longer return the $15 dispute fee for successfully contested disputes."

Cadbury is listed here by the organization that discovered the issue:

Equality will always be prevented as long as we're allowed to exercise free will. A wise man said, "Differences in habits and attitudes are differences in human capital, ...and such differences create differences in economic outcomes."

Besides, the 2nd sentence of the Abstract shows they begin by labelling the perceptions of others as inaccurate. This corrupts the rest for me:

Only when equality is increased within their ingroup, instead of between groups, do advantaged group members accurately perceive it as unharmful.

I second this. Foods affect your depression levels. Foods high in Omega 3 fight depression. Eat those foods regularly, you should notice the change in your mood.

Same here. Half way through the "FAQ" video I realized this might be a joke.

No, according to Cleveland Clinic's study, vaccine adds no benefit to those with natural immunity.

From HN guidelines:

Please don't comment on whether someone read an article. "Did you even read the article?"

Just last month, a study finally began to investigate the effects of COVID vaccines on women's menstrual system [1]. Because women's official complaints had been ignored by the medical communities all year. Now they've been forced to finally examine it. To say that any vaccine side effects are "trivial" (as some have commented here) ignores women's concerns about the real possibility that something may be going wrong down there due to the vaccine. We'll know the results 1 year from now, when the study concludes. I wonder how many of the 1400 fired unvaccinated workers were women with good-faith concerns over their menstrual systems.

By "Hanlon's razor," he's implying the developers may just be stupid.

I think the rise of 24-hour news networks are partly to blame.

Fans of Charlotte Bronte may remember:

“No mockery in this world ever sounds to me so hollow as that of being told to cultivate happiness. What does such advice mean? Happiness is not a potato, to be planted in mould, and tilled with manure.”

- said Lucy Snow in the novel, Villette, by Charlotte Bronte.

If you have to try to convince people, you're doing sales wrong.

If your goal is to make money from sales, find out what people want and give it to them. They will be coming to you with money ready to pay, if you are offering what they already want. So to sell, find out what people want and then offer it up for a price.

This article paints a misleading picture of Florida's COVID procedure when you consider Florida's largest county.

Florida's largest county (Miami-Dade) was very much on lockdown all through the summer of 2020. All restaurants were closed for seating, only takeout was allowed until well past summer. Masks were mandated and required everywhere even outdoors, enforced by fines of at least $100 for each instance of being caught without a mask even outdoors since mid 2020 until very recently in 2021. Masks are still required in most indoor businesses. Even Miami-Dade County public schools didn't allow my child (and more than half of all students) to return to school in person for the entire school year, which ended today, still remotely.

But Gates was the #1 richest for many years, like 20-ish.

Miami, Florida

The largest county in Florida, Miami-Dade, has had my child do school at home since March 2020.

I've been trying since September to get him back in person but they don't allow it, so it's misleading to say they're open for in person. Only a tiny percentage of students are allowed in person.

"It’s been fully open, 5 days a week in person, since the start of the most recent school year last September."

Not true. The largest county in Florida, Miami-Dade, has had my child do school at home since March 2020. Only a tiny percentage of students are allowed in person even now.
