It's funny because conservatives will mock liberals for having "safe spaces," yet they have their own safe spaces themselves. They are completely unself-aware. They will even mock political correctness and people who get offended over jokes, yet their beloved trump has sued everyone and anyone who talks shit about him, and they themselves will try to shutdown conversations they don't like. I've even seen entire waves of people get angry at jokes made towards conservatives made by people who these same people criticize for getting angry at jokes make towards their own political leanings (ei: David Cross and Patton Oswalt). The whole problem from both sides stems from tribalism.

I would think it would be pretty hard to understand neural networks except for blatantly obvious hard-coded things.

Think of it as two triangles? :)

A tool that the general public either does not know how to use or could not spare the interest/time to learn how to use. A game that the general public could find intuitive and start creating things in the matter of a few minutes while simultaneously playing the game. How is this anything but apples and oranges as parent post states?

It doesn't, I own a windows phone and the skype app is pretty atrocious. Constantly crashes, messages will confusingly disappear, chat history is often inaccessible, almost never receive notifications of when a message is received, etc etc. Haven't been fixed in ages.

I've been using DDG, and it has the superior black font.

Why would you want to use a keyboard that gives no actual feedback? I guess people don't care to type fast without making mistakes and not having to look at the keyboard like an idiot. It's a really frustrating experience on mobile or foldable keyboards.

All I can think is if she's going to be remembered because of her work at NASA /or/ that she just because she was a black woman. In other words, would this video, this article, her popularity, etc etc, exist if she were not a black woman? Hmm.

Ketucky. KET.

Victim blaming? I hate this attitude when it comes to these sorts of things, it always sends the message that people don't have to worry about their own security and safety. In the end, it is partially the victim's fault because if the victim had decided to employ more security and caution, they would not have had their car stolen. Same as how it's the criminal's fault because if they had not decided to be a shitty person on that day, no car would have been stolen. There's a legitimate difference between employing all the security measures you could but still finding yourself in a situation where you are forcefully unlocking your car door by gun point, and in a different scenario having said "fuck security, it's never the victim's fault" and just leaving your car door unlocked of your own volition.

That's a good point, I'd rather not see a post for every single new virus introduced into the google playstore. Thanks for bringing in a new perspective.

I was almost sure I was going to get a reply like this. Yes, I'm admitting that I'm going against my own standards of not judging if an article belongs on Slashdot or not. Congratulations on dissecting that for us. Anyways, I'm glad that you lack the attention of the majority of other Slashdot readers and insert "What part of that seems wildly out of place on Slashdot" before reading the next sentence where I state why it seems out of place on Slashdot. I don't know why you're projecting about women in coding, you are make rather large assumptions. I care about as much for women in coding articles as much as I do for men in coding articles.

Exactly, I'm not one to judge whether something should be on Slashdot or not, but even I have to concede that this seems wildly out of place. The plug-in itself has only 5 ratings and 94 users, maybe if there were 100,000 users or something this would be relevant, but the app is clearly dead at such low statistics. Not to mention the functionality is completely pointless, "blocks ads from bitcoinwisdom.com" -- do people just have a unique extension to block ads for each site they visit? Such a weird story to find on Slashdot.

This. This is the first thing I looked for when I opened this article. Everything I hear people debating/arguing about has already been covered in this video.
