Reddit is (was?) open source without federation just like signal. Reddit used to be pro free speech. Now they are banning people and communities like the_donald and brag about how deplatforming works. People can create their own little ghettos but it's inconsequential and no one uses them.

It's not a stretch to imagine a repeat. That moxie will brag in 10 years about how much he is banning people and how well it works. I wonder who will be unpopular in 10 years..

> But then you also go into this fantasy where most criticism of Trump is the sober assessment of dispassionate intellectuals with no conflicts of interest

I used sarcasm to make a point, yes. Here, you have claimed I've said something completely outside of the content of my post.

I base my criticism of Donald Trump solely on his actions and his words. They are indelible, and a clear-eyed person needs nothing beyond them to understand who his is and what he represents.

I could barely read at age 10, and I was in public school! That's why my parents took me out and homeschooled me. Which fixed the problem in a few months with intensive one-on-one phonics from my mom that the school system just wasn't going to do.

I had an awesome afternoon, a little while back, when a friend of mine and i googled bout how the pulses in the optic nerve work and used the idea of nyquist frequency to work out the point at which (even if your photoreceptors could do it) you can't tell if a spoked wheel is spinning backwards or forwards. clearly not groundbreaking, just us figuring something out we didn't know.

>"Separate Your Arguments From Your Emotions"

>"This may sound callous, but if you've tried every strategy in this guide and your debate partner continues to operate at the bottom of the pyramid (for example, continuing to spout inflammatory ad hominem attacks), sometimes the best way to empathize with them is to pretend they have an undiagnosed mental illness."

The article reads like you took every smartass redditor on the planet and condensed them down into an article. Why can I not express emotions in an argument, or why do I need to be 'rational', or why can I not be subjective? I don't mean this in an offensive way but why is everyone who argues supposed to pretend they're autistic, because that's honestly how this piece comes across.

> That sounds good in theory but research seems to suggest that homeschoolers overwhelmingly perform better on every single metric.

Being homeschooled and unschooled myself, I got to see that first hand in other families. But I don't think it actually means that homeschooling/unschooling is universally better: plenty of people try it, find it doesn't work for them, and quit.

My best guess is it increases the variance of results more than the average, with some kids doing very well on it, and some very poorly. While that's good for society, it doesn't mean one can entirely replace the other.

Nothing in this article indicated that the problem was the quality of the American workers. They were given no business plans, no money, no authority to make final decisions. It doesn't matter who you hire at that point, that's a recipe for failure.
I agree emotions are important. Given how all of our brains work, it's not realistic to take them out of the equation.

But it is important to maintain some moderation and rein them in. Emotions are powerful, and if you don't learn to exercise some degree of control them, then they will control you.

I think it helps to understand that emotions have a purpose. For example, fear helps you avoid threats, and anger pushes you toward taking action that is needed to change a situation. If they're serving their purpose constructively, that's good.

But if they're not, they need to be controlled. For example, when fear makes you avoid something which is actually safe, or when anger makes you act in a rash manner or suffer mentally over things you cannot change.

We tried to set up internships with them through AIESEC once. They were super gung ho about it, it was like a bolt of lightning struck this dude (some sort of engineering manager in houston) when I was telling him about the program when he visited our campus. We had, like, three or four meetings, setting up for something crazy like fifty interns (AIESEC is a non profit that sets up local internships for international students) was on the table. We even had created the job descriptions and put them on our little internal internship board. Then they simply stopped returning our calls. Never found out what happened.
I guess if you're in a crowd that is into gaming and gen-z culture, you'd get sucked in in no time.

Those are previous pieces on an ongoing situation. This is a new article just published with updates on the current situation.
I haven’t, but definitely do read things from outside my view point pretty regularly. I tend not to find fiction compelling for settling empirical questions though, so I’m likely to pass on reading this for the same reason I have passed on reading atlas shrugged. The best way to convince me of something is generally non fiction.

(To give a few examples of books that have changed my mind, I was a very conservative libertarian growing up in the school of Nozick, but ended up being much more liberal as a result of reading Foucault and his rather compelling recasting of how power dynamics work. I found Peter Singer, Nussbaum and Sen to all be compelling enough writers to basically convince me of what I should spend my life doing. If you have suggestions for science based books, I’d love to read them, but I find religious fiction generally leaves me unmoved and uninterested.)
Can you define the meaning of "worse" here and then back up your claim with evidence?
My biggest annoyance with Signal is that when I send an SMS, people with Signal on an Android will not reply back with an SMS but with a Signal message. It doesn’t make any sense that I don’t get replies on the same channel as I send.

I've always found that a fascinating difference between University in the USA and Australia.

In Australia I studied Software Engineering (Accredited by the Australian Institute of Engineers). From day one, every single course was strictly "on topic". Maths, Electronics, Programming, Computer theory, compilers, real time programming, Java, C++, Real Time Programming, Digital Electric Design, Data Comms, more Maths, Digital Signal and Image processing, Game Design, Personal Software Process, etc. etc.

In the four years I studied (plus another for a placement in the workforce) I never studied a single moment that wasn't directly Software Engineering. Not a single English or history or anything course.

My knowledge is very deep, but not nearly as broad as someone that took all those other courses.
"Arguments are not soldiers" is so very well put. Unfortunately if you don't choose a camp you often end up in the cross-fire.
It’s worth noting that the question on yields is actually pretty orthogonal to the question of taste. You can optimize for taste and yield pretty effectively, but humans generally use yield and appearance as what we pick our veggies on.

This is great, but I think, learning Vulkan and writing a video game can be hard within the same project. Don't burn out.

If you want a suggestion, I'd keep learning Vulkan on a side, but chose a higher-level graphics library for actually programming a game. Just to keep yourself interested and to see progress quicker. There are so many decisions and design choices in making a good game, so keeping graphics simple and small can give you more creative freedom. (If that's your final goal.)

One of the few things I find to be an unrelenting pain in the ass about Discord as an unfamiliar user is account management - is my account tied to the server I've joined? Is it tied to my email? If I click a link to join a server and set a username, how do I link that with my existing account? If I set my username/profile picture on one server, does it change across all the servers I've joined?

As a college student that's constantly told to join Discord servers for every class/club/friend group, it's so annoying for this not to work intuitively, and the Discord documentation isn't too helpful either. I think I must have joined about 6 different servers across 3 different email addresses by now just because of how obtuse it is.

Ok, but how do you feel about this?

A laughing emoji would let us know that you think it's funny that people are this inarticulate, although it'd be a touch condescending.

An eye-roll emoji would indicate a frustration with the problem, suggesting that it personally affects you in some way — perhaps your relatives are using too many emojis and it irritates you personally.

A frown emoji, meanwhile, would suggest a more sincere concern for the state of written communication in our culture, and would imply that you think something important is being lost.

> School's purpose is not to teach obedience or even getting a job. It is there to teach us critical thinking, and consequently, how to be a good citizen.

That's an interesting use of "purpose". That isn't what our system was specifically designed for (Prussian system adopted by the US) by the people who designed it.

They wrote heavily about how well their new education system instilled obedience and created good soldiers and workers. They were very proud of these good outcomes.

It's also not the actual measured outcomes of our current system. Hell, "critical thinking" is explicitly excluded from the curriculum by a chunk of the US.

The use of "purpose" to mean "thing we want it to be" isn't a critical type of thinking.

Obviously that depends. Here is another way to phrase your question:

Just remember that beyond words, our expressions, gestures, and tone, are all important parts of effective human communication, and text lacks all of that. Subtlety in meaning or intent can change while still using the same words. Slack isn't formal writing, it's more casual communication between humans, and emojis just make it all a little less ambiguous. I certainly agree that you should try to be as clear as possible, and that overuse of emojis can be tiresome, but there are definitely situations where a simple emoji or two can make all the difference in how your words are perceived.

If such a system is implemented properly, moderation can be done by a third party service on top of the platform. This would be strictly better than the current model, since every specific user could pick a service that best matches their opinion on what does and doesn't constitute spam and other undesirable content.

Better yet, something like Aether, where everybody can moderate for their own feed, and any user can designate any other user or group of users as their moderators to get a curated feed with no effort of their own.
