TheJazi13on Facebook Indefinitely Suspends Trump

You can do the right thing every now and then while still being evil. It’s been obvious for a long time how stuffed with lies, hate and abuse the President’s social media account have been.

TheJazi13on Giving Up TV for a Month Changed My Brain

Honestly, what's wrong with being well rounded in your entertainment? So frequently there are articles plasters about how you must "give up" things like television.

I'm listening to an episode of How I Built This at work, will read some Game of Thrones on the way home, will watch Love Island with dinner and probably throw on a record as I get ready for bed. It's not an all or nothing game here, you can just enjoy life.

TheJazi13on Microsoft bans April's fools pranks

This thread has really brought some sticks in the mud. Why are you all against others having fun even if you personally don’t get it?

TheJazi13on Practical Go: Real-world advice for writing maintainable Go programs

I’d argue there’s a failure of the code to some extent to need such extsenibility with documentation. I’ve often found when I need more info outside of Godocs that simply clicking through and diving into the source provided me with all the answers I needed to know.

I really think you should check the definitions of misogyny and sexism

misogyny n.: The hatred of women by men. sexism n. : Prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, on the basis of sex.

Now go back and read what the men were actually making jokes about. As much as I hate to burst your bubble, dick jokes, as crude and inappropriate as they may be for a professional setting, do not show any "hatred" or "discrimination" towards women. Hell, women can make them as much as men can too. If a male overheard two women making vagina jokes do you think they would start to claim they have a "hatred (or discrimination) towards men"? Hell no. I thought the feminist movement was supposed to be about equality?
