I see it as a classic intent vs outcome. If someone tries to commit atrocities and fails then their moral character is just as bad. People can change and reform but the attempt, exuberance, and time involved are all bigger signals than how the victim is affected. Incompetence can't be a defense for evil at a certain point.

That sounds very reasonable as a prediction. I could see it being a pretty interesting black mirror episode. I would love it to stay as fiction though.

Sorry this is months after, but it's cool to see it worked. I use a software called XXX Agile and it's not the worst I work with but when ported to my company has some flaws. There's a long project to switch somewhere else for document control and people who should know much better than me are worried it will fill some gaps but open us up to way more.

This is like buying merch from a YouTuber. It's not about buying a product for what it's worth, it's about donating to a "cause" with something to show off that you did. (Not hating on supporting YouTubers, just a comparison)

As an American, same. Except for the original reason behind freedom of speech and a few other things protecting the people, we need a lot of updates. A lot of updates.

I enjoyed that show a lot. Even if you're not into public bath houses (me), you might have a very enjoyable watch.

Maybe it was written incorrectly, but he said he's sure Chauvin doesn't regret his actions. Which is an interesting point when arguing for rehabilitation, but changing a mindset like that would take copious amounts of time for them to be safe in public. Maybe like 20 years to rehabilitate.

What if your new fix if it goes wrong reinvents your system. Gen 1 always has something. What if that little patch you're thinking of is the right patch.

I absolutely love the first few seasons of Alone. I can't vouch for the rest because I haven't watched them yet, but that's some amazing survival type reality TV.

To some extent I think you are preserving culture. It's only conservative if you want to keep it all for yourself.

Should've retired like 40 years ago. I hope she was able to pass on that skill set already. I hope this was a case of "that's what I wanted to do today" and not a case of "that's what has to happen today". When at war, I can understand that priorities change. She probably has a strong bond to going above and beyond for her country, but no one should have to feel that way. I have great respect for her, and I feel great sadness that her skills are even needed currently.
