Nobody thinks blaming cows means blaming their existence. Everybody understands it means "cow agriculture". You're coming across as intentionally argumentative and willfully obtuse.

With all the people wishing for forums but not wanting to host, I'm surprised nobody had made a Discord-for-forums. Threaded, not reddit.

Internal doesn't make it cool. It's not about testing, it's about developing familiarity.

As Guetta notes on Twitter, he's not releasing this commercially.

Both hip hop and EDM have a huge culture of sampling live things they couldn't sample and release on an album.

Eminem has rapped over songs he doesn't own at concerts.

My parents stayed in Mexico after their Medicare and SS kicked in.

Once you've been down there for 5-10 years, why would you come back? There are huge communities of retired expats in Mexico. We're talking 5-10k expats all visiting the same grocery stores, churches, etc.

My parent's best friends down there grew up in the same era they did, often in the same regions of the US. I don't know what my parents would come back to the US for?

One other note is that the story circle doesn't necessarily map to a text. A movie may have three circles (two consecutive ones for the A plot, one for the B plot). A book may have six. A fantasy epic might have twenty iterations of the circle in each volume.

The circle is cyclic. Game of Thrones follows the story circle, but each book is made of about twenty circles.

Don't confuse a story for the text.

Sounds like you don't need a website with a 101 label, then.

Writing notes by hand has been proven to increase understanding and retention. Unless we’re giving kids OCR tablets, they’re learning less taking notes on a keyboard.

Hold landscape.

Not the person you’re responding to, but I don’t think it’s egotist at all. I’m sure I’ll fall for some news manipulation. I’m sure I already have.

I don’t think it’s elitist to think many people will be duped. I think it’s arrogant to think you won’t.

I remember seeing something in the late 90s / early 2000s (when I was in college) that broke down the incomes of liberal arts majors who went to law school and those who didn't. It should have convinced me to switch to STEM, but all it did was convince me to go to law school.

What is this? My Google-fu is weak.

Wow. No.

Spider-Man is owned by Marvel, which is owned by Disney.

Sony has an exclusive license to the film rights which they will eventually lose and cede back to Disney.

Do you have a roadmap? Or a ko.fi?

I'd love to be able to support this. I'd also love to be able to export my text.

Related, I've found stopping episodes of television in the middle makes it much easier to stop bingeing. If I finish an episode there's always* a revelation that I want to go on to the next episode to resolve. But in the nadir of the middle I'm usually more satisfied and I can just turn it off.

They may be making it out of love, but they’re not the ones giving it away. The ones who are giving it away are not doing it out of love.

What has Twitter done about child exploitation in the last two months other than disband the groups responsible for stopping it?

I can find any reputable news sources saying positive things about Twitter and child exploration.

Agreed, we should model our educational frameworks on the way they did it in the 50s, when men were men and women knew their place.

We’ve learned nothing new about childhood development in the last 70 years, pretending otherwise is a waste of senior designer time.

I can’t tell if someone is selling me something made locally, or is just pawning something made in China as local, but I still try to support local because I believe the underlying knock on effects are greater.

The same holds for AI art.

No, but they weren’t the first ones on Twitter, either.

Anytime someone uses the phrase "labor shortage", remind them that what they have is a "salary shortage".

It’s not making money off of open source, it’s making money off of hosting open source.

And yet the post also suggests members of the company should talk as individuals, not as the company. Which is… a tough row to hoe.

This is a lot of the UK’s first time in a D/s relationship, and it’s going to hurt.

The argument is that money is coercive.

Fox had a reality shoe where they just tortured people for money.

That is perfectly in line with freedom of speech. Is the government showing up and arresting the speakers? No? Then freedom of speech is intact.

Instructions confusing. Just rented AirBnB in Idaho.
