Sigh.

It's never a progressive supporting Bernie Sanders...

“you should never destroy a fence until you understand why it’s there in the first place.”

I like that; really makes me think about my time in building-games.

It's what happens when you put theory over practicality.

 

I'm curious how software can be created and evolve over time. I'm afraid that at some point, we'll realize there are issues with the software we're using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite.

Are there any instances of this happening? Where something is designed with a flaw that doesn't get realized until much later, necessitating scrapping the whole thing and starting from scratch?

There's nothing really wrong with telegram.

It's just social media for people who aren't indoctrinated by the west.

If American really cared about security, they would use free software.

You specifically left out the “a science” part, which is also part of the “kids’” definition for eugenics in your source.

eugenics noun eu·​gen·​ics yu̇-ˈjen-iks : a science that deals with the improvement of inherited qualities of a race or breed and especially of human beings

Removing the “a” from the beginning completely changes the meaning of the word, which is why you did it.

Shame.

The business world moves very slowly.

"Out of date" tech to some people is battle-tested to others.

I'm honestly surprised windows can even exist at this point.

It's mind-boggling to me that people would dedicate their lives to learning that system when it's such a shoddy piece of crap.

It's amazing what a motivator money can be.
