I'm surprised a bunch of tech professionals are totally fine with downloading random .dll's and patching executables. How do you know this is safe?

You’ll face unfairness with DEI / diversity quotas to get in to the college, and then if you graduate you’ll face unfairness by having your job outsourced to AI or H1B, but yeah cheating in school is totally where we draw the line.

> All of them have bad microphones (worse than wired ear pods)

Yeah this is why people just buy AirPods Max.

They just work. The integrated mic is clear and easy to use for daily standups. They connect to my work and personal laptop in a few seconds every time - I’m never left panicking right before a big meeting. Of course the audio quality, noise canceling, and battery life are world class, but that’s the case for their competitors too - the reason I coughed up the extra $150 for Apple headphones is because I know they’re going to fucking work exactly as advertised, no glitches or gimmicks.

Most men can’t even get a date anymore, but we’re not allowed to talk about the reasons why.

Yep, the only reason their pay is high is artificial barriers to entry.

If you have to be “top talent” to survive it’s not a good field to get into anymore.

It’s matter of incentives. Everyone knows the value of college is in the piece of paper they give you at the end, the things they teach you are not super helpful in real world. So people cheat so they don’t have to waste time learning useless knowledge and instead spend that time on something valuable, like working out or going to a party.

He is a good guy for not selling out but let’s be honest, it’s just a thin wrapper around ffmpeg.

Have to agree. This whole procedure of booking an appointment with a GP who then books you an appointment with a lab who then takes your blood is a huge waste of time. The technology is largely there for people to continuously monitor their health in real time, you see this in smartwatches as feature by feature slowly trickles in.

Made my phone immediately much laggier (iPhone 13 Pro) which is probably the intention

I thought colleges only had a limited number of slots to accept students each year. Seems like US citizens would be competing with foreign students in that case.

99% of those students were not any more talented than the average US citizen

People starting from scratch would get latest, whereas people maintaining existing projects would be able to upgrade when they feel it’s safe to to so. Do you really want the people maintaining the nuclear reactor code being testers for latest?

What's wrong with GNOME? I've been using it for years, I think it's by far the most consistent and logically laid out desktop environment on Linux. In fact I think it's more usable than Windows, which is impressive for it being such a small project.
