251·14 days agoIf it wasn’t for the culture wars, it would be another Oscar Pistorius situation. Not the murder, the prosthetics.
For those who don’t know this guy was a runner whose legs were amputated, and he got replacement prosthetics that made him as good if not better than runners with natural legs. There was some debate if his disability actually gives him an advantage, if it should be allowed at all.
They also have a trans railway in Siberia. Only trans people are allowed to use it.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Palantir CTO says AI doomerism is driven by a lack of religionEnglish

Well you asked …

It also means not absolutely hating your job. If you’re the only hater and everyone else likes working in the company you’ll have a bad time waiting for everyone to leave.
