Why don't you drive an 18 wheeler to work every day? They are used by millions of professional people every day who's job it is to drive! Why would you be different from all those people that you think you need to use a little car instead?

The answer is obvious in both cases; You don't need it and it would be wasteful. If I don't have a huge database with constant read/write calls, If I don't have to try to manage multiple end users submitting content, if I don't need super async real-time snappy UIs to compete with the latest android app fad or session tracking of tens of thousands of users, why would I need laravel?

If nobody rolled their own specifically for what they needed, we would still be writing ASM/APL/Raw hex.

The vested interest media and political parties have in making it seem like there is an insatiable thirst for white supremacy in America.

It's on average not any worse than it ever was, but showing us how bad its always been right now serves a useful political goal in division and diversion.

Its not a conspiracy, just stupidity and greed. Outrage generates views and votes, no cartel required.

Nah. Computing sensitivity has always been easy enough, flip bits and watch output. This is about how to do it in a generalized way that fits in with related work in the field.

Any interesting work coming out of "Olah Team"? I tried googling but found nothing specific just Distill articles and your twitter feed...

"If someone was going to break the law, they would have to lie about it first."

Legit companies don't want the info and anyone that wants the info isn't doing anything legal with it.
