There is only one instance when racists understand that an entire group of people can't be blamed for the violent actions of 1 person...and that is when the perpetrator is a white man.
In all other instances, logic need not apply.

I understand some of you feel strongly that you should have free and open access to other people's creations bc Disney sucks so the rest of us who create should suffer, but if you could keep it out of my mentions? 1/2

I remember the first time a Christian said to me ‘But, if you aren’t a good god-fearing person, what stops you from raping and killing?’ I was fully speechless for 30 seconds. And then the creeping horror of realizing I was talking to an absolute psychopath set in.

I remember watching it. It was striking to say the least. It felt like nearly everyone watched it.
TV was funny in those days. There were so few options it felt as though we all had a common experience (at times).

Tonight in 1983, more than 100 million Americans saw multiple thermonuclear weapons destroy Kansas City, Missouri, in “The Day After” on ABC. A.C. Nielsen Company reported that 62 percent of television sets that night were tuned to the film. I watched in my packed college dorm lounge. How about you?

No self pity for me. I do feel for those generations that follow me, but lets not pretend they have more difficult circumstances.

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.
Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.
We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

I'm really curious how this plays out over time. I've heard from former employees of mine that they can create code faster, but what they create isn't a good
We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.
