Narco trafficking sounds like a good incentive to get rid of drone operators. Wouldn't want them capturing footage of those operations

Making fun of what Trump says signals that what he says it stupid and anyone who acts on it is even stupider.

They blamed millennials for being too educated and now blame gen z for not being educated enough, they're apparently the only generation that got it just right. Convenient.

Sounds like Trump was delivered some new internal polling.

No. This person literally says they started it. It's not the same because it's not a false accusation. This is being reported by new outlets who verified their sources. It's journalism not a witch hunt, it's not my personal failing for not recognizing the vast difference here.

Yeah. Not the same thing.

Pointing the finger at someone who was not involved in anyway is something very very different.

This person literally got the ball rolling. They are not an uninvolved participating in the event.

Wanting to see it as similar is about you and leads me to believe you were at least a passive participant in the witch hunting of the bomber suspect. Perhaps not, but you are clearly over fitting that specific series of event to this current event for a reason that is personal to you.

You think this is the same thing?

Because I don't see how this is witch-hunting by social media when this person came out and said she did it and really that doesn't matter because it's the right that ran with it. They cannot hell themselves from being overtly racist anymore. That's not on this random internet women.

Keeping in mind the DSM used the word retarded until DSM V came out in 2013.

Another history fact around the DSM is that homosexuality was a mental disability but that was removed way back in 1974 and society didn't shift as quickly with it as it has now.

The issue with retard is that it is describing an actual medical condition and swapping the word isn't going to change that.

The worst kind of racist.

"I'm not a racist, I just spread rumors that are based on racist ideology."

Being dumb isn't an excuse; it's a prerequisite.

The only hope here is that this specific moment forced her to recognize her racism and she stops spreading it going forward. She'll still be racist and she wakes to her own culpability

A rockstar developer doesn't churn out unmaintainable, by definition.

The number of people who think they are rockstar developers but clearly aren't is probably close to the number of cover bands who see themselves as undiscovered rockstars.

I've worked with people like this, their best hope is to fail upwards into management.

The only way to know if you are competent coder is for other coders to tell you. If none are telling you, your imposter syndrome isn't.

There are other signs as well but these aren't taught in formal education. An example being the ability to recognize how your old code could be improved. The way requirements stack over time makes this a certainty in any product.

That's what debates have been pre-Trump.

There were never any surprises. They were expected to be composed and articulate.

It was mostly about getting voters to tune in at prime time because despite there being round the clock news, most people don't actually pay close attention to politics.

Hatred is stupidity. Always has been.
