Yes, well spotted, it's also the same argument you can use for literally anything else, until all you're left with is a state's right to decide on whether to enact a plastic bag tax or not.

The "material conditions" that lead to illegal immigration in the US are lax enforcement of immigration and labor laws. If we had enforced our laws from the beginning, it would not be a problem. The solution then, is to enforce th

It's really not as complicated as you make it out to be. Everyone has a right to put the interests of themselves and their group first and foremost. Given that, the "solution" to immigration is to just not bother with it when

I agree completely, AT&T should absolutely honor their legal obligations.

That's a separate issue though, and something I am quite strongly against. The article was about "discriminating" specifically against the poor, and unless you'd like to argue that their collusion is willfully and knowin

Is this even news? If they thought there was a profit to be made by offering them upgrades, they would do it. They haven't, so you can probably assume that there is no profit in doing so. Last I checked, AT&T was not a charity and

It's not about abortion. The states where a majority of people support abortion already have it. It's not enough, however, for the states that the American left controls to have abortion - they must have it in states controlled by

Why does Trump's agenda need resistance? Why do you think you might need to die for it? Be specific, what threat does he pose that is so great that you are willing to die to stop it?

Could you elaborate? I've never heard of web assembly being related to DRM before.

by Oxitendwe 10y ago
If Tim Berners-Lee really wanted to save the web, he wouldn't support DRM in our web standards.[1] It's absolutely disgusting as well that they would argue that "fake news" is somehow a threat to the internet, provide no

Haskell's type system isn't Turing-complete or even particularly sophisticated. There are extensions to its type system implemented in GHC that in theory give you unbounded computation, but a) those aren't actually Haskell an

I don't think it's right to equate expressing unpopular opinions with murder, no matter what you believe. If he's wrong, prove it, there's no need to resort to such ad-hominem attacks.

Literally no one is arguing to the contrary. The problems people have with immigration into the US typically involve the sheer scale of it, the fact that many people who come to the United States do so illegally, difficulty with integrating

It's mystifying to me that the author comes to the conclusion that the solution to this is to educate people on debugging tools and edge-case semantics. The reason the code is difficult to debug is because the "bug" is that f

Well, for one I would stop banning and restricting people for expressing their opinions. Your phone company wouldn't disconnect your service for leaving nasty messages on someone's mailbox, so Twitter shouldn't ban people for

It's absolutely insane that this is apparently the expected behavior. It makes no sense whatsoever except to give people who know this an ego boost when they can successfully work around Python's unintuitive semantics while inexpe

The issue here is that Shopify are being judged not for their actual stances, but for who they do business with. This is different from boycotting something because of their actual positions. What if no one would rent a building to Breitbar
