There’s another way?

Crazy how much that 1.5% could have changed

Omeg- uh, I have no idea what you mean. Probably all of them if you try hard enough.

Sigma is at the end because it’s too much of a cool loner to conform to alphabetic ordering (unironically)

Somehow it feels like this whole essay could be summarized in a single paragraph of, say, 3 proper sentences

Wasn’t STEAM supposed to be something specific, not a replacement of STEM? Idk, I just know the acronym because Angela Collier did a video.

Plenty of stuff that works much better for white guys that speak English and with the right accent, because that’s who they are mostly trained on (image/speech recognition, spell check and translation, lots of medical stuff but that’s not very tech). Not sure about straight.

Even as satire it’s kind of lame

12 year old you (unknowingly) made the irreversible life change of going through the default puberty. Plenty of people regret making that choice.

Essentially corporate censorship for fear of maybe offending someone.

and people will blame the wokes/DEI/whatever

Wasn’t the joke that Chang was in fact doing blackface, and everyone else scolds him for it? (this doesn’t make it good to remove, just changes the context)
