Yeah but maybe someone else does it

Not worky

It’s not the same though, those are fictional characters. I know a real person made them, but still, it’s not the same

How do you define Tech bros? I lump them in Commerce category in my head.

Computer Science/Engineering people I have encountered are more into liberatory politics (whether they overtly acknowledge it/are awareof it or not)

I think Arts and Sciences folks need to team up and fuck up Commerce bros.

I think the aussie contestant is getting disproportionate amount of mockery (and even hate). It’s becoming borderline bullying

At least it’s not wrong

Now what was the cause of the bug? Fat fingering human error during release.

There isn’t a singular “the” cause usually, and if we do want to press for it, I’d say an aggressive deadline for a major product that needs engineers to slave away was the cause. At that point bugs become stastically inevitable. Whoever decided on that promised deadline was the first responsible person.

It is kinda yucky that most of these “standards” for women map with the bodies of young girls

Exactly. To let advertisers intrude on your brain for what you get in exchange is usually an unfair bargain. People really undervalue their attention and time.

See, replication isn’t a problem if your entire field is vibes-based. A lot of economics papers I come across are like that (so much so that I am close to writing off the entire decipline as unscientific). The diff in the level of rigour you would see in e.g. particle physics versus in economics is baffling.

It used to be psychology as well but I am noticing they are more than aware of their replication crisis lately. Whereas economics feels pseudoscience with a maths clothing.

Why are edges of this comic curved

Black holes aren’t like magnets

Reputation comes from public, it requires collective action and coordination. Collective action is not easy, but it is not as hard it might seem either. For example, many open source projects in software are highly reputable without a private ownership.

I wouldn’t jump to conclusions on who did this, could be false flag

For those curious, this was called a “casette tape”

Life imitates ideology

It has happened to me a few times, and one of them I can share.

When I was negotiating for a new job, it was all email, until I asked whether it’ll always be work from home (this was during the pandemic). Instead of an email reply, I get a call and the HR tells me it should be work from home always.

Fast forward, the pandemic is “over” and people are now being called over to work. My contract is worded ambiguously enough for the company to defend this “order”. I realise if the earlier conversation was an email, I would have a case for myself that I never agreed to this (not that I would go the judicial route, but still).

SNe?

I mean it’s fine, obituary is less importnat than life
