Being hoisted by your petard is a well-known phrase from Hamlet by William Shakespeare, indicating an ironic reversal, or poetic justice. [1] Yet, it is somewhat of an ironic reversal [2] for you to write that the saying isn't apt. The

Whether an area is a suburb has nothing to do with whether people live in single family homes with yards. A suburb is an outlying part of a city or town or a smaller community adjacent to or within commuting distance of a city. [1] [1] htt

It's been a while since I've used one of these! It's looking good! The only way to make it better is to change the spelling to App][er. It's an extra l that way, but I think that's forgivable.

You've completely made-up things that you believe I have done in my head. It's all false. Please just stop and go away. It's very tiring.

Nobody ever said that the description of a thing implies any morality. Are you actually engaging in honest conversation here? The GP clearly wrote how a student's union can affect the members actions, outside of the union's purpos

That comment was specifically to say how a student's union can effect societal changes unrelated to the purpose of the union, by the leaders of the union using their bully pulpit to coerce people to act. That is exactly what they said.

You can also look at the article that appeared on the home page here at HN the very next day after this discussion you and I had. The article talks about Facebook suing one of these registrars for giving out free domain names to criminals,

Could those who wanted to work longer for additional pay do so, when asked, or was that restricted by the agreement? I don't have experience with these to know how they work.

Of course domain names are unique... As long as BGP routes aren't poisoned or a million other issues. However, the issue mentioned in this thread isn't whether company ABC has abc.com but that 10 people at ABC can administer abc.c

Of course not. You are confusing a domain as it normally used with the context of this conversation, where I pointed out that domains are insufficient, because they cannot be used as personal identification.

by IncRnd 4y ago
You are correct. You need to be careful, because they are enticing with free and then trying to charge. Free subdomains are easier to obtain, but there are some domains in "off-TLDs" that can be obtained. The list of those changes

This discussion is about whether domain names can serve as identity not about me proving I can create a domain on the Internet. However, here is a free subdomain I've done for you. I created http://hnretroid.mooo.com/ ,

A domain can expire and be used by a different party. A different person can maintain a website. There are many ways a domain's admin can change. Domains are not guaranteed to be unique even if they are in some cases considered anonymo

Currently, a domain can only be a brand and cannot be a true identity. There are methods to get free domain names [1], domain names without identity validation [2], etc. So, a domain is nothing but a method of verifying internet presence. [
