12 skips of 30s each. They really do have some 6 minute long ad breaks.

were you not paying attention or have you already forgotten that Honey is scamming the very content creators who shilled it (and others) by hijacking their affiliate links via cookie stuffing? By using Honey you’re actively fucking over people who get income from affiliate marketing.

The brilliant minds at the orange site have discovered what’s stifling research: Academics don’t know how to use JSON! Surely, forcing every graduate student to go through a webdev bootcamp is the solution.

ah good point. He reads “mature and excellent at communication” as a self-description. After that, there’s absolutely no way he can resist writing himself into both characters.

I bet if they restricted the survey entrants to people who actually write on LW, the score would have been far lower. Has a single article on there contained even a twinge of a useful idea?

h1-b visas make up a vanishingly small percent of the workforce. There are plenty of reasons to hate immigrants but this ain’t one.

fun fact, “most” real numbers have this property. If you were to mark each one on a number line, you’d fill the whole line out. Numbers that don’t have this property are vanishingly rare.

“People say their life sucks, but I looked at some numbers and actually they’re wrong!”

It’s a huge failure of computing that this is the most convenient and obvious way to do this.
