It’s a thing about humanity. Sunrise on a heliocentric solar system looks the same as geocentric. And yet every single culture put us in the middle. It could have been 50-50 but instead we were all wrong together.

My point is that we see what we want. No, don’t change the words to suit them.

What I was taught was try to take their conclusion and see how hard it is to maintain it. For example if someone were to argue with me about the truth of their particular branch of Christianity I should do is show how many assumptions I need to make to get to it. I.e. there is a god, this God is personal, this God favors human life, this God choose one particular tribe, this God waited all that time to send his son down…

As a former student now practicing engineer this habit never gets broken. All of us accept cargo cult computing to one extent or another. It sucks.

Usually the engineers with the least tolerance for it do better but only in the long run. In the short run they are yelled at for holding back projects.

I enjoyed down voting this comment.

I don’t know anything about the drama but back in the day I was in DevOps and pretty much every engineering tool we had strongly urged us to run it on the RHEL family. Also it was kinda nice that there was a phone number to call when things were going to heck. Plus for some reason I could always get drivers to work faster on fedora, which might have been my knowledge base. Not sure

Also for a corporation a red hat license is pennies so for them just having official support is worth it.

For individuals I don’t think it really serves any use.

Just don’t explain anything and you don’t have to worry. At work only interact with your own gender and never be alone with the opposite. Better to be safe than sorry.

I have never liked the term. I am also in a technical role and feel like if I say anything to a women at work I will be yelled at.

Like okay I had to go to speech therapy for years the very fact that I can talk at all is a miracle of medical science. Any other time in human history I would be effectively mute. So now I am working with someone, I have to not only figure out the answer to their question I have to spend all this effort to get my mouth to move to say the answer and if I explain it even slightly wrong I am an awful person who deserves to have their life ruined.

I don’t know what you don’t know. Sometimes I am not going to simplify my answer not enough sometimes I am going to simplify it too much. I am going to make a mistake and for that I am sorry.

Frankly I do avoid it because I don’t want to be accused of something. If I don’t interact I can’t interact incorrectly.

Take the US for example with crippling student loan debt.

Downplay your views on student loans

Yes which is why you made one just now.

Criticism of the economic policies of a group that is focused on economic policy is appropriate.

Sorry your bff’s like student loans debt

Student loans debt slavery is bad actually.

Neoliberals hate when this is brought up.

The biggest thing to mention about neoliberals is that they are strongly pro student loan debt slavery.
