My professor is an author in it, feels cool.

I used to have an automatic google search-domain blocker. It was just front-end though so if a page would have website domains that were useless, it would only have 1 or 2 results on it unfortunately. Something a little better integrated would be nicer.

I don't speak French at all yet, but looking at this keyboard, I like most all the design choices over the standard QWERTY keyboard and especially over the old AZERTY French keyboard. For English use it is quite nice except I do like the ' and " keys close to the center, and as a general rule I think switching the 6 bracket keys ()[]{} over two keys to the right would be nicer for programming use to avoid needing to over-extend the pointer-finger (Put ù and Ù on the 5 key anyways, to match with the other accented vowels). I really like the extra basic maths keys as well, since too often there is no LaTeX or Markdown widget in websites.

>> To improve the state of the world, the World Economic Forum is starting The Great Reset initiative.

Holy cow this reads straight out of a dystopian novel. Been hearing crazies talking about "The Great Reset" for over 10 years now, never thought it would come to the fore.

As a user who knows absolutely zero Git, I often fumble around for a good 20 minutes at times trying to figure out how to just install someone's project for consumer use.

I wouldn't trust anything a dentist has to offer, they only had their first empirical dentistry journal in the last decade.

Having reddit crack down on hate speech makes it a corporate shill-chamber/chicomm focal point, along with an anti-1A and against American-rights. The evil is always there with these companies brother.

I feel like the problem is already fully-realised in this case, so you can't "nip it at the bud" but have to stop the full-form yes? That goes along with "cutting it off at the head" moreso in my opinion.

Well all the major internet firms are based in the United States, if they want to hold to foreign markets they would need to hold separate divisions in separate countries, or in coalition dealings. There is a reason USA law Section 203 debates (which doesn't address the core problem) are so contentious regarding Social Media.

This is exactly why I believe a dutiful representation of the 1st amendment in the Internet includes anti-botting measures, since bots flood the town-hall with un-measured broadcasting, shuttering out any and all active speech. But beyond anti-botting and one or two other very minor holds, a public forum should have no other restrictions of moderation. There is an exact restriction needed for the moderation to itself not be speech-impacting either by too much or too little of it.
