There's supposed to be some sort of Arabic proverb that's something along the lines of "Me against my brothers, me and my brothers against my cousins, me and my brother and my cousins against the world". It feels like a

From the perspective of impacted Mexican populations I imagine it would seem heartless, but it's not an unprecedented sort of action. Economic sanctions are a common tool of governments and have a similar impact on various populations

What do you think is different between donating and voting in this case? If you think it is legitimate to have a promotion ceiling for donators to a particular political side, why not voters?

As someone who has never used Tinder (and doubt any success if I were to try), my impression was that it was more of a one-night stand / casual hookup sort of thing rather than looking for long-term relationships. Is this an incorrect

Exactly -- that was part of the mindset behind Weta when they were working on the Lord of the Rings movies. They rejected the attitude of avoiding detail "because no one would see it anyway," because putting in that detail would t

This is the danger of the "law is just code" mindset of companies interacting with customers/clients. In the rush to automate and process-ize interactions with "mere humans" under a Great Algorithm, they forget that

I'm glad the story brought up the comparisons to the early days when exporting crypto was similarly restricted under munitions laws. That era was similarly full of calls to ban or regulate or backdoor encryption, saying that only terro
