Can I just claim to have breached some company and have the law compel them to issue that quote? I don't think anyone would have to claim to have breached the company in question. Just the act of asking the question would compel any

I’ve seen this sentiment echoed a lot online and I suspect it comes from activists who wish to guilt trip those who aren't engrossed in their cause. Exactly. It's like when people complain about minimum wage. As a software devel

Just sounds like pure survivorship bias to me. I think you are using it in the exactly opposite way. "Crazy innovator succeeds and makes it rich! Future innovators don't need to listen to experts!" is the "survivor&quo

If not, why not and why did humanity end up in a state where clunky apps are needed for this when the car already has all the electronics it needs for this? (Almost) No one is making their car purchasing decisions based on the existence o

You wonder how many games are genuinely fun, and how many are marketed well and cause a network effect. Are you trying to approach entertainment as if there is some objective measure of "fun"? And how is this issue specific to g

"Healthcare" to a teen on the fence might mean EXACTLY looking for an agency that can help them deliver and give the baby up for adoption. Are you arguing that clinics don't provide services that help women deliver babies o

When offering alternatives to abortion get demonized you have to wonder what this is all really about. What is the anti-abortion crowd really about then if they are demonizing abortion? There is a lack of symmetry: the usual pro-abortion

If "anti-abortion businesses" are about "pressuring people..." by merely providing an alternative to ending the life of an innocent human being then by implication "abortion businesses" would be about pressuri

I'm generally pro-choice but this reckless disingenuity employed by abortion advocates is appalling. What exactly do you find "reckless disingenuity" about referring to an abortion as healthcare? Nothing about that signals

The US has a similar 'WTF' when it comes to pharmaceutical ads. The US is heading in a similar direction with gambling, if we aren't there already. Sports betting it feels like makes up half of the advertising and sponsorsh

These polls have an insane selection bias though. Sure, but isn't it in the other direction? The users are most affected by the change are those using third-party apps, but you can't vote in polls in third-party apps.
