I haven't used master as the name of the primary branch for years across multiple companies.

Sooner or later, y'all are going to be outdated.

Glad I don't work with people that would fire people for calling out a hostile workplace. FYI that's illegal...

As if renaming 'whitelist' to 'allowlist' is going to turn any neo-nazis into angels.

As if that's the point?

What do you think a hostile workplace is? Do you think being consistently subjected to verbiage that negatively impacts your mental health is a good thing?

Seems odd to me that so many people want to hold onto things that hurt other people and justify it by saying it doesn't solve anything despite the fact that those people are telling you that it will help them.

This is a non sequitur strawman.

You add to the hurt of this world in the name of victims who would rather you do something more useful.

Wrong. Maybe try talking to people that don't want that kind of verbiage instead of making bad assumptions. Removing terminology associated with slavery has high support among those that actually were descendants of slaves.

This is about you, not about them.

As such, this sounds like projection.

That's not even the worse part. The refusal to make a change that costs you nothing in order to stick it to people you don't like is much worse and indicates all sorts of behaviors you do not want on your team.

by taking a few days of rest one might treat CE/MFS

Their comment in no way implies that

It's bizarre how your comment is being downvoted when it's a very accurate description of many modern capitalistic societies.

Especially if we're talking about America, where companies literally try to fire you if you're sick or using up too much health care because of their bottom line. It doesn't even matter if it's illegal because unless they get caught there are no consequences and even if they do get caught, the consequences are often times so pathetic that it's worth taking the hit because the savings exceed the punishment.

The answer is that China and Russia behave dramatically differently than the US does.

yes. they are open about what they do whereas we do it covertly

why most of the global community views them differently.

"most of the global community"

you mean the west, which is not even a majority of the global community.

but even if it was a majority, again, because we do it covertly, we hide it and everyone only sees the good things until someone like snowden comes along and leaks our dirty laundry.

Show me one instance America detaining someone for a family member’s political dissidence?

Nah we're not playing your game of restricting this to family members for political speech.

Your original point was to address

Amen. I've never understood why people fear speculated Chinese and Russian spying, while they never seem to recall the US spying that is well documented and confirmed.

In some cases, family members – including young children – of “ghost detainees” have been detained themselves, and held in CIA secret sites, including 9 and 7 year old boys.

Have you seen how they've treated developers over the past year?

You're kidding right?

The CIA has black sites specifically for people like that

I'd argue value was added by removing an integration to an unreliable platform

Elon Musk follows Longtermism. His position is that few deaths here and there today don't matter if it brings about full self driving cars.

no

Nothing FUD about pointing out Musk's consistently petty nature

It's not.

If you use wget, you see that the delay happens during the first hop with t.co

It also happens with threads.net, instagram, facebook, blueskyweb.xyz

Wrong. In a collision, you're literally a projectile when you don't wear a seat belt.

they already told you they did tested it and you don't believe them.

what else could they say that would make you believe them?

you might as well just test it yourself like i did with time wget. it's not like you're going to believe anything anyone writes.

Do you consider laws against drunk driving a violation of personal freedom and if not, why not?

What a weird thing for her to say given that Asian Americans use public transit in great numbers.

Then again, I've noticed that the ones with money are utterly alien to those of us that don't have it or grew up without it.

I am thoroughly disinterested in the unhinged vitriol I see so often from Musk's haters. The incessant lazy discourse about how Twitter is dying, for either technical or other reasons.

but I personally think he has done more good through his companies than most others with similar resources.

It's always odd to me how people say Musk is doing good though his companies without backing it up while criticizing how people are critical of Musk as if it's unhinged.

Perhaps you are highly curating your slice of Twitter.

I, on the other hand, go into many different spheres of Twitter.

The wider Twitter universe has gotten much worse since Musk took over.

This could spin off into its own post.

My own thoughts on this is that React has morphed into a something is even harder to use than Angular 1.0

Every day Musk brings Twitter closer and closer to 4chan. It's only a matter of time before the whole rotten house collapses.

vanilla opinions

Like what?

There's no evidence for nondeterminism in the human brain

Are you saying that expecting companies to not share explicit images of people in private moments is unreasonable?

less well-off ones do not.

False.

I don't get why people keep pretending like less well off children do not have access to this.

People like me growing up needed this as an avenue as this was often times one of the only avenues available to the less fortunate for standing out.

We don't have access to other privileged activities that holistic reviews love.

People that want to take this away from us are short sighted and demonstrative of how the privileged have no idea what the impact their policies have on the people they ostensibly want to help.

paywall

Yes.

What are the locals going to do?

Refuse? Ok, then they kill you.

Lie? They force you to eat some.
