The two examples of misogynistic memes in this article are really tame IMO. It's the type of humor that teenage boys have always had, long before the existence of social media. Don't get me wrong, I definitely think social media algorithms are having a major negative impact on society. But I don't think content like this is the problem.

Interesting, I didn't know there were so many assassination attempts in the past.
What kind of trash tier journalism is this. Genocide is a real, serious issue. You can't just call something a genocide metaphorically, that's incredibly disrespectful.
I remember using ChaCha. Good times
Apple could easily do the bare minimum to keep regulators at bay while still keeping the experience as shitty as possible so that Android will continue to look bad. For example they could refuse to implement reactions or typing indicators, or they could even deliberately compress videos. I'm expecting the worst until we see otherwise.
I can't wait for lab grown meat to become widely available (in my state at least). I think it's really cool. Being able to eat real meat without harming animals sounds so futuristic. It's one piece of future technology that I can actually get behind.
I just subscribe to Rotten Tomatoes Trailers
I must be way out of the loop, cuz I had no idea this was possible. So does this mean the Facebook app on my phone has permission to view all of my network traffic? Why do Android and iOS allow this? Shouldn't that be a special permission that can only be granted explicitly?
The article says that Apple is still planning on making iMessage compatible with RCS, but isn't Apple's incentive gone if there's no longer any EU pressure? How likely is it that Apple will cancel their RCS plans?
This article isn't really saying anything. It's just saying that a lot of people feel like the job market has gotten tougher, but we don't have any solid evidence to prove that.
Personally, I recently got a new software development job, and it was offered to me from the very first company I interviewed for. (This is out of the ordinary for me, as during past job searches it took me several interviews before I got an offer.) Did I get a job quickly this time because the job market is better, because I've become a better candidate, or because I got lucky? It's impossible to say. Anecdotal evidence doesn't really mean anything when it comes to market competitiveness IMO.
Why is everyone saying this is because Stack Overflow is toxic? Clearly the decline in traffic is because of ChatGPT. I can say from personal experience that I've been visiting Stack Overflow way less lately because ChatGPT is a better tool for answering my software development questions.
It's impossible to predict which new multiplayer games will be successful and which ones won't. It's so risky for developers to even try making them nowadays. Even games that seem successful at first (like The Finals and XDefiant) struggle to maintain much interest over time.
Anyways, I like Overwatch but I've gotten bored with it over the past few years, so I'm potentially interested in Concord. I'll keep an eye on it. (I was aware that there was a beta, but I thought it was pre-order only so I didn't check it out)
