Technically the truth. It's a paramilitary coup.

That's justification for a negligence claim. Staying that your sub meets or exceeds a standard and knowing the view port wasn't certified to those depths is the very definition of negligence. And then knowing the vessel was only a single use and using multiple times seems like a really good claim on manslaughter. Rush is lucky he's dead.

My better half is convinced that my job is looking at and interacting with black windows. She can't figure out why I need high end computers when all I did is fiddle with the black windows.

Communities are not made in a week or months, and we shouldn't expect that Reddit communities will decline in those time frames, either.

IMO, the only way Reddit survives is with automated automation. Replacing the mods is dangerous precident; any future mods should pay attention to the current situation. Reddit is disincentizing moderators from volunteering.

It's burning the barn down. Sure, new subs will happen, but they will be harder to find, and they need to re-establish the rules. It also makes monetization hard. All those ads sold against specific subs are worthless. And now reddit doesn't know what subs it can sell ads against. Basically they can only sell ads generally to the entire site. This hits Reddit in the wallet. Also, it mucks up selling the data to AI companies.

Long term, I think you are correct. But short term reddit is trying to IPO. This whole protest will devalue any IPO and cause investors to think twice.

Yes, but then they would need to hire mature devs. I interviewed at Reddit a few years ago and the "staff" engineer was a smug 25 year old. Their engineering culture is one of elitism and a shocking lack of humility. IMO, the rot from the CEO goes all the way down. It wouldn't surprise me if someone had your idea, but the organization is incapable of execution.

Seems like after the first couple they come up with a telemetry system to send flight data back. It's hard to imagine that aliens did a speed run to get faster than light travel down and skipped the parts of technology to measure and understand flight characteristics.

I am a waiting for the slander and libel suits to land. Seems like RIF and Apollo devs have a good case. It would be epic if Reddit had to pay them each $20m.

Aliens have the tech to fly light years and be undetectable electronically, but didn't learn after the first couple of craft that they need to work on the landing?

An NFT as your avatar? Wow, it's dumber than I thought.

Meh, why be ashamed? Reddit was well liked until this bullshit started. I am only judging those that are still premium members.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That's the amazing thing. In about a month Reddit went from a well liked company to hated. I would love see the cross section of premium users used third party clients. Reddit just torched all good will for nothing.
