11 months agoHoly shit how did I not know he died? I was about to say “damn this guy is still doing interviews on this book?”, and then I realized it was a decade old and the (RIP). He’s the dude who singlehandedly got me into programming/cybersec after I was gifted a ton of his books by my brother. RIP, he died way too young.
I genuinely think Reddit might be the worst social media site just cause of the egregious amount of echo chambering. And I’m not even talking about only one side of the political spectrum is on the site, it’s sub-dependent. If you don’t fully agree with anything in a community you run the risk of the ban hammer at the very least in the community and possibly even site-wide. Every single community (and apparently Reddit) has at least one rule that’s vague enough for them to justify removing posts/banning people they don’t like with it. And even worse, everyone on the site thinks they’re the epitome of intelligence cause they’ve been in their circlejerk forever.
