@cpaik Stack Overflow comments have no downvotes and that.. definitely became a problem over time. You could always flag them, of course. Bear in mind casting a downvote costs *YOU* 1 reputation on SO though.

@BoosterJabs @ClipperChip well, if you're gonna argue that nuanced issues are difficult/impossible to distill through a 280 character (increased 2x from 140 characters!) straw, then I'd say you are absolutely right. That's a question for the thread owner, methinks 👆

@susanthesquark a hero!

@SBinCB @lexfridman .. and they aren't. Remember Spotify isn't a US company, so this is akin to holding an opinion about a Chinese company.

@zachtratar @lexfridman Spotify isn't even a US company. This is like the US commenting on a Chinese company.

@sriramk @cdixon that reminds me. I once shared a vegas cab ride with a software developer who asked me if he should quit his job and focus on Google Glass apps.

@zachtratar @lexfridman "a position" is irrelevant. I have "a position". It's an opinion. Unless they are requiring, by law, that Spotify do X, it's irrelevant.

@lexfridman It's not censorship. He can easily get another publisher. https://t.co/xEiab3gqFC

@damienkatz oooo heavy man (takes another toke)

@ClipperChip You asked what is so hard to understand and I explained *exactly* what is hard to understand.

@ClipperChip I’m not.

@ClipperChip Is it though? Who decides what “fire” means and where a “crowded theater” exists?

@kaetemi @leothrix @discourse If you want an info-dense theme they are out there for sure!

@ClipperChip Depends. Are they yelling “fire” in a crowded theater?

@johnolilly Yes exactly

@Carnage4Life Companies are nation states now

@donpark Also “undo” is forced delay on all sends

@donpark No ads is incorrect

oh wait there's.. this? https://t.co/ByD3FWdmyr

@jongalloway @fitzgen no need to shove global inequity into people's faces, maaaaan

@bmgentile I have no personal interest in NFT profile pics

@bhavaniy no, you get an artificial delay before every tweet goes out. Not.. quite.. the same thing.

@fitzgen @jongalloway we call it "running away to join the circus factor" because the bus thing is unnecessarily morbid

@rbrisita but it adds an infuriating artificial delay to every tweet!

how do computer work?

but I can .. promote.. this tweet? I'm so confused right now https://t.co/UTzBy1lvDf

@ex_austin But at least I can turn off.. the feature.. I pay $2.99 per month.. for.. 😵

@jhighpdx Prime is quite useful to me!

@ex_austin oh my god you're right! 😭

@kaetemi @leothrix @discourse Check out different themes! https://t.co/nhRc7Wb3ED

@davidsteele I don't think so because I don't have a paid Twitter account. I should sign up for paid twitter though.

@leothrix @discourse thank you! We work *really* hard to make Discourse a fantastic, 100% free open source building block for the web.. 🙏 see https://t.co/o25hrVaqgT for tangible evidence of how much effort we've put in over the last 9 (!) years.

@donpark get a desktop PC and plug in the latest video card .. that's what I do. Was easier before ethereum took a massive 💩 in our swimming pool, of course..

@MatzeOne https://t.co/ENdVqzFIFS

@donpark GPU stuff though, so unless you are a gamer.. meh. GPUs eat MASSIVE numbers of transistors..

@JonnyJest you'd have to type it in, not like I linked it!

@bcorcoran It looks like it may have been coincidence. Though I find the idea of ad networks encouraging you to (legitimately!) update out of date browsers hilarious.

@JonnyJest I figured, but by coincidence I guess, my Chrome WAS out of date. Of course I would only update via the native Chrome menus, not a sketchy button on a random website!

@wavetree @gabrioverratti @RichardSocher therein lies the rub! What makes a game "fun"? 🤔

@paulg the idea that we *need* to stop it is the problem

@RichardSocher better, faster search results

@chetfaliszek heck no, people still think REM's "The One I Love" is a love song

@stevesi I put those fancier AAs in all our digital locks for max life.

@cshirky @k80way This is straight up *useful* and arguing otherwise is lunacy https://t.co/LdJDDsPAIM

@lexfridman Money wins, not “freedom”

@mattblaze @violetblue I just closed my free account as well, and cited Joe Rogan's misinformation as the reason.

@mattblaze @KarenRylander @violetblue why bother replying to some 414 follower rando? who cares what this person thinks?

@NeilVitale @dnellis74 As I said in my reply, it depends heavily on the climate IMO. Wetter = messier.

@chx @abbieasr this book? https://t.co/NJVNBz8eb7

@anildash @photomatt the gambling aspect in particular really stands out.

@anildash @photomatt it's fairly clear (to me, anyway) that cryptocurrency is fantasy football for finance nerds. And fantasy football is a HUGE business: https://t.co/1bNrgXas1o

@ojrask @esesci get older

@JayHanlon 🤜💥🤛 🚁

Let’s see how this goes!! https://t.co/RNDcyO4iG0

@rory_blyth @jilliancyork @migueldeicaza yes. those were our vows, you already said them. we are now married.

@ryanrwinchester the above tweet is dedicated to @migueldeicaza 🙇

@ryanrwinchester well, actually, you are an animal

@rory_blyth @DaveVdE @jilliancyork @migueldeicaza the entire mayo discourse in Undercover Brother (2002) is GOLD. GOLD! Watch the movie if you haven't. It's a great comedy. 🎞️

@rory_blyth @jilliancyork @migueldeicaza I think ketchup is merely "ok". sugared tomato paste. That said, I have had some artisanal fancy ketchup that was *notably* better than the average stuff.

(it's still way way way down the list compared to mustard which is GOD'S OWN CONDIMENT 👅.)

@chetfaliszek Every Far Cry game after 3 was basically the same game with some tweaks. Only exception is Blood Dragon which was AWESOME.

"That’s true for many rock stars lately, who could deal a blow to the streaming service if they hadn’t sold their entire catalogues already for large sums." https://t.co/yu3YG8Luuz

@Carnage4Life This is also why it was difficult for me to meet Reid Hoffman in person. I was like.. "Hello! Great to meet you! Thanks for.. er.. creating.. uh.. that thing.. "

@textfiles you gotta leave some room in your idiocy for others to thrive

@Carnage4Life 🙋O.G. LinkedIn hater over here since 2006: https://t.co/11ajls9Jcz

@ThisisBobRice @DanielMallott see my reply for my indoor shoe rec! LOVE those damn things. got 'em on riiight now

@shneydor why for covid tho?

@Benghamine @jilliancyork @migueldeicaza 🤤 mm fried chicken sandwich. I'd just put two pickle slices on it and call it done, personally. Not a fan of thousand island style burger dressings, but I do enjoy the classic mustard/ketchup combo.

@AaronHugginsDev Jeff "lifestyle consultant" Atwood, at your service sir 🙇‍♂️

two things:

1) In a frequently wet/muddy climate the answer has to be "yes" by definition, I now realize that. I live in a dry climate.

2) If you're looking for great indoor shoes, I can't recommend these highly enough. So So comfy 🤤 https://t.co/eqIO6QH2N4

@mattblaze @OrinKerr "uneasy lies the head that wears a crown" 👑

@xor ah yes, Twitter, exactly the place for this kind of nuance 👨‍🍳

@ClipperChip @mattblaze @OrinKerr yeah but what if that is like 80% of your day? It kinda stops being, shall we say, "fun"?

@mattblaze @OrinKerr I think you're in a particularly contentious field, like if you were a "racial theory expert" or "right to life / abortion expert" 😱

@mattblaze @OrinKerr well, I have 280-290k, and you definitely start to change your behavior in the middle there. You have to actively avoid posting anything that can be strongly misinterpreted.

@mattblaze not at all. You sound like a guy trying to make the best of a bad situation. 👏

@esesci gotta have a firm bottom for me otherwise it hurts my feet.

@esesci these are AMAZING. I recommend them with my whole heart. 💗

@coreyh I should have thought this through a bit more, the big implied question is "do you live in a dry climate"

@esesci I do have some VERY comfy slippers that I love.. I often forget I am wearing them and leave the house with them on because they are so comfy.. https://t.co/eqIO6QH2N4

@sqferryman this is the only correct answer

@btusi yeah I should have clarified on climate. Seems obvious in rainy/muddy locales.

@chetfaliszek I suppose if it's frequently muddy / rainy then you kinda HAVE to. So this is a dry climate question way more than I realized..

@jilliancyork @migueldeicaza and I love vinegar-y things, especially BBQ vinegar (the other kind, not the sweet kind)🤤

@jilliancyork @migueldeicaza I loooove fancy mustards. dijon, spicy, honey, pebble-y.. to me, mayo is basically eating fat / lard straight from the Crisco can. ugh.

@jilliancyork @migueldeicaza ok so this https://t.co/x3huwel315 but I probably won't like it. I also dislike avocado sauce (aka guacamole), which I call 'green mayo'

@jilliancyork @migueldeicaza https://t.co/AJP5xZf8pw

@migueldeicaza btw this is a fascinating thread thank you for starting it 🙏

@migueldeicaza @toncijukic ironically I see big businesses as a force for change in this area.. they're gonna big up and join together on healthcare. That's my prediction, let's see if it comes true..

@jilliancyork @migueldeicaza all mayo sucks

@migueldeicaza oh shit I'd buy that

@betsyphd @seesharp what the HELL is going on here?!? lol 🤣

this is an amazing list 🤯 .. for example: https://t.co/wcNrUdHrAx

@nothingclever Super helpful thank you!

@conor64 @GryphonWatcher I'm sorry, we apparently suck at logic. Can you write an article explaining it for us?

@mxfh https://t.co/mx3pXrbkfh

@wilshipley It is very good but in a web browser virtually useless.. forces login on scroll down

@tsh4k @Conanbatt I still remember several of the drunk driving videos they showed us in high school .. one with a truck full of teenagers .. not to mention this kind of thing: https://t.co/m69REsJuHO

@orangecassidy @drewtetz 🤜💥🤛

@drewtetz @orangecassidy what is Orange Cassidy? I can't tell even after visiting the website 😖
