- Comment on When a person gains weight and keeps the weight on for a long time, is that old fat in your body, or does the fat get replaced over time? 1 day ago:
Seems like that would be an argument for liposuction as a way to supplement other weight loss because it would remove those cells.
- Comment on Why do companies always need to grow? 1 day ago:
I would argue that this is not really true under capitalism. The logic of capitalism is one of capital accumulation, which requires growth. Under other systems you still have markets and money and profits but there are other goals than the accumulation of capital and therefore achieving “homeostasis” is a successful strategy-a business run with consistent inputs and outputs which includes a sustainable profit.
- Comment on Am I cognitively performing less than I could've been if I hadn't drunk alcohol at that age? 2 days ago:
Impossible to tell. Your brain is how it is, rather than worry about what you cannot change, think about what you want to do and how to do it. If you are experiencing cognitive issues or emotional distress that you think might be a long term effect of your young drinking, talk to a therapist or your doctor about how to address those issues now.

Yeah, there’s definitely morons out there who never bothered to even read about the theory of good code design.
- Comment on AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds 5 days ago:
Oddly enough, my grasp of coding is probably the same as the guy in the middle but I still know that LLM generated code is garbage.
- Comment on AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds 5 days ago:
The most immediately understandable example I heard of this was from a senior developer who pointed out that LLM generated code will build a different code block every time it has to do the same thing. So if that function fails, you have to look at multiple incarnations of the same function, rather than saying “oh, let’s fix that function in the library we built.”

- Comment on XC Running: Does anyone else's parents do this? 5 weeks ago:
I am really sorry to hear this. I’ve tried to help my kids keep their feet on the ground, but still encourage them to work hard and share the enthusiasm they have for the pursuits they have chosen. Your mom sounds like she’s dealt with disappointment and hasn’t processed it well, so she’s negative about your interest in running.
For what it’s worth, I think you show a lot of effort and work ethic, and that’s what gets people to state. I think you should continue to be an example to your teammates and encourage them to look for the positives.

- Comment on Informative review 5 weeks ago:
Early on when it was coming into the US shops made the distinction, but Americans just sort of conflated the two. Makes it confusing if you want bubble tea with jelly and not pearls.
- Comment on Informative review 5 weeks ago:
This has bugged me for twenty years.
“Bubble tea” refers to tea that is mixed in a shaker, creating a small layer of bubbles when it is served.
“Bubble tea with pearls” is the one with tapioca pearls in the bottom. Milk tea is tea made with milk.
- Comment on If copyright on a work expired immediately after death, would be that a bad or good idea? 1 month ago:
You might expand that to “society continuing to allow children to suffer because their parents are unable to care for them is a larger issue than the question of copyright.”
