A Georgia woman has died after an abortion ban delayed lifesaving care
  • I've seen pro-life folks argue that but they frame it like... "the law is fine and it's a failure of the doctors not being willing to understand the law which led to deaths" and they'll also follow that up by saying that even if women die, they're saving more lives by preventing abortions so it's a net positive.

    I find it difficult to argue against that perspective. That is, I disagree with them but also it's hard to argue when they frame abortions as basically murder.

  • Full Stack Developer
  • the term normally refers to a developer that can be productive in every layer required for a typical application to work.

    They can do the front end design/styling/implementation and are familiar with front end languages and frameworks

    They can do the backend API design and are familiar with the typical backend languages and patterns.

    They can do the database table design, write and optimize queries.

    They can handle the ci/cd scripting that handles building and deploying the application

    They can design and write the automation tests and are familiar with the libraries used for that.

    And a bunch of other crap like load testing or familiarity with cloud services.

    The latest thing added to the list is AI model creation which is a nightmare.. but, I can't say no 🤷‍♂️

  • The Product is . . . Comprehensenility
  • The thing that's missing here is context. It's hard to care about a random doctor prescribing an extra $200 for a patient that is taken out of the tens of billions of dollars of profit a year that health insurance companies make.

    Like, this car seat anecdote costs as much as an hour meeting of a few of their higher paid employees.

    Does that really matter? Should it matter?

  • Upkeep rule
  • is that what that is? I've been in the same place for a couple years now and the bathtub has slowly been peeling away during that time. The peeled paint clogs the drain so I have to clean it out every couple weeks (I did add a drain catch thing but it's not perfect)

  • Where’s the Beef? Trump Demands Harris Prove She had McJob
  • as a dude who has worked in restaurants and offices... working in fast food isn't the simplest job out there, like by a significant margin. That sentiment is propaganda to keep wages low and treat low wage earners like shit.

    however, I get that Trump thinks that way so your point still is right

  • Higher difficulties in every single RPG.
  • Goldeneye and its spiritual sequel Perfect Dark (my favorite game of all time) do this varying AI skill thing along with the mission objectives expanding across difficulties. An argument can be made against it because someone playing on "easy" doesn't really experience the whole game but it's also cool to replay levels on a higher difficulty where the map is larger or you're interacting with more things or you're starting in a different location.

  • Chat GPT appears to hallucinate or outright lie about everything
  • It doesn't matter that it was correct. There isn't anything that verifies what it's saying, which is why it's not recommended to ask it questions like that. You're taking a risk if you're counting on the information it gives you.

  • Chat GPT appears to hallucinate or outright lie about everything
  • because it could have just as easily confidentiality said something incorrect. You only know it's correct by going through the process of verifying it yourself, which is why it doesn't make sense to ask it anything like this in the first place.

  • How capitalism works
  • I feel like it just paints an absurd situation. They're in a precarious situation and can lose their balance and fall forward or backward. I don't think there's anything weird with the physics if you accept it's supposed to be an absurd situation.

  • It genuinely upsets me that Valve spent their time and resources on another Dota variation
  • MOBAs were cool at the time of warcraft 3. Let's move on.

    What kind of statement is this? MOBAs are still insanely popular. And "move on"? as if there's no reason to iterate or improve on a genre?

    I don't even play MOBAs but I've heard this same sentiment on arena shooters and it makes as much sense there as it does here.
