I suppose I could if I wanted to go to that very large amount of effort just to get that small amount of functionality. Methinks a userscript would be a lot easier. I'd agree with your comment if I'd said "They should take th

What the title nor the github account are up front about is that this is an ad/privacy blocker that comes with a rather large blacklist[1]. I tried disabling it (because, like the title, I only wanted to block a single thing) but it wo

Maybe if humanized mice practised abstinence until mice marriage they wouldn't get HIV in the first place? Then we wouldn't be spending billions of dollars trying to find them a cure.

So if you value flow, if you think that getting away from noise and distraction is valuable and lets you write good code, that inevitably means a totalizing removal of oneself from the customer? Perhaps the author needs to discover nuance.

Android Jelly Bean? Android Ice Cream Sandwich? Android Honeycomb (ok that's not necessarily junk food). Android Eclair, Donut and Cupcake? It's been "junk food" since 1.5.

Would you mind providing some citations for your idea that Psychopaths self-deceive? From what I've read the better Psychopaths are masterfully in control of their web of lies, that it's easy to believe what they say because they

So I started writing something about how we were supposed to get away from the awfulness of flash, and it's stupidities like long loading screens, with CSS3 and HTML5. But I viewed the source and this is flash. Well the loading scree

North Korea is known for many things but not, as far as I can tell, traveller's having their data seized. If anything it sounds similar to the way travellers to the US are treated. Care to elaborate on your comparison?

So update your blog post to say that. I had the same reaction as GP.

I'm going to have to disagree with you, mostly because you're bringing sexism to the table, where nobody else in comments or article (as far as I can see) has. The cake didn't have icing on. Or it had different icing. I dunno

It's not quite the same. Karma/rep on HN, Stackoverflow etc are a core part of the site. Companies like Klout are parasitic. They are doing something with the content I generated and then trying to tell me to do something else &qu

Google provides a service: finding content on the internet. We want pagerank because it (presumably) returns quality answers to our questions. Klout and companies like it (and presumably yours) don't add any value. I can already find p

I prefer to imagine Larry Ellison wringing his hands saying "Curses! And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids!" Also he's in an abandoned fairground for some reason.

I think your response is valid and an excellent counterpoint. I would only disagree by pointing out that the President of the United States is not a normal person merely having a spoken interview. He's known as an excellent orator -- t

How is the author's "suspicion confirmed"? What is the point of the Julian Assange aside? The cartoon is confusing, I don't see how it fits the goldilocks narrative at all. This is a confusing and low quality article.

I think it makes more sense to say the author is writing it like that to show that Obama was stumbling with his words in response to a "yes/no/I don't know" question. That's useful information that I appreciate

You've fallen into the trap the article talks about, in expecting the woman in the story to be talking logically and therefore held to a high standard of discourse. People say over-the-top, outrageous things out of emotionality, when they m

Tech is VERY white. Take a look around during the next conference you visit. If you want something more objective, this US-centric chart seems to be a good example: http://www.bls.gov/cps/cpsaat11.htm

There is a great gap between saying "I will not shop with you" and "I wish nobody ever shops with you". I wasn't bothered by GP's desire for accurate feedback, or for consequences for mistakes; I was appalled by their callous attitude.

That "spec" was a Working Draft in June 2012 and a Candidate Recommendation in September 2012. It's still not final. And browser vendors have implemented prefixed versions (even Microsoft!). I think it is reasonable to criticise the W3 for
