This doesn’t actually answer the question.

Please tell my wife this.

Just pick the 15th most common name of the previous year. Then your kid will be fine.

Haha what the fuck? I had no idea Canada had politicians like that.

These analogy answers are weird and not helpful.

OP, they look through telescopes and figure out how far away the stars are. They record it in a little diagram on a computer and eventually they get a good idea of what it looks like from the outside.

Wait we can know what it looks like though. They can plot the distance and position of the stars and then they will have a model of its shape as a point cloud.

Is it absolutely a good ol boys club. Like, oh my God it’s unbelievable. To be fair, most people aren’t like that but they have a shit ton of young, talented, neurotic, male engineers who just graduated college and have been told they are super geniuses. These are not the creme de la creme when it comes to emotional intelligence.

If I understand correctly the article is a lie. The author “misunderstood” what they were reading.

I don’t know if Google threatening the DDG employee would change the situation. Wired published it. If their writer came back and said “I was threatened by a megacorp for my excellent work. Please take it down and tell everyone I was wrong” wired, at very least, would not issue that statement.

“oopsie I accidentally wrote the hit piece of the year about my competitor and it turned out to be a lie! Tee hee silly me what even is journalistic integrity?”

This article was a smoking gun. Google is scummy but this was shocking. And it was a fucking lie? I actually hope Google goes after wired. That’s not justice against Google that’s malpractice.

No

I can’t go back :( they fingerprinted my computer, phone, email, all of it. Allegedly I can go to a library and make a new account with a burner email but I haven’t tried.

Nah it’s fine

You use vi because you are lazy.

I used vi because I am too stupid to close it.

We are not the same.

Ed is king. Every single time I have to work on a severely resource constrained system I always use Ed.

That’s literally never happened to me but that won’t stop me from saying it.

Except I’m too dumb to use even the neovim plugin manager let alone configure the thing. I have to copy existing configs like a noob :(

Charity: the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.

Sure Jan 😘

That means that instead of giving that homeless person medical treatment they should just shoot him.

The wording, “light em up boys”, refers to how cops might talk to each other and how the cops won’t give the dude help they’re definitely going to kill him. The entire joke implies I don’t think he deserves help and instead he deserves to get gunned down in the street.

Actually, in all honesty, I told my friends and they thought it was hilarious. I told my coworkers (we are all in our 30s) and they thought it was hilarious. It’s not a horrific hateful thing, it’s a joke and it’s funny.
