They do get upset. In fact, both Google's and EFF's responses are results of people getting upset. There's people upset that Nazi imagery exists, and Google wants those people as customers, so they have made the decision to b

Is that really a paradox in the US? Popper talks about unlimited tolerance , but this is not the case in the US or really any country. There's not even unlimited tolerance of speech , as we're well aware of narrow exceptions to

I only have a cursory knowledge of history, so I'm not aware of this. All the cases I can think of where a certain set of ideas were suppressed usually ended up in failure, e.g. Christianity, Protestantism, various heresies, civil righ

How do you know it's a choice? Do you know if people choose what ideologies to align with? Is it a choice to become an addict? Moreover, a notable contingent of the supporters of the current ruling party believe "being gay" t

What you're saying is true - freedom of speech is not absolute, and there are well recognized, narrow exceptions to the First Amendment. That said, Schenck is an awful example of them, considering: - it does not advance your argument a

This is true, but the board allegedly pressured him into resigning the week after. Here's the NYT article with details - https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/21/technology/uber-ceo-travi... - although, g

Were they...unaware this could happen? Was James Damore not harassed over his internal memo ?

That's a wholly uncharitable reading of what he's saying. A way more good faith interpretation would be the very simple equation of "working with just computer - more thing oriented, working with computer + partner - more peo

I don't disagree with what you're saying. I want to point out you are employing a classic motte-and-bailey tactic. In your initial post, you said: > In this memo's case, perhaps you're mad at someone for saying you&#x

That can be a reasonable reading, but I don't see what's so controversial about it. Would you agree that women are naturally physically weaker than men, and this makes for a convincing argument why you would expect more men doing

I don't dispute your conclusion, but for the sake of argument, how can you be sure nobody was "terrified", given the claim from GP that people would hide their opinions on the matter very carefully?

You(or GP) seem to be implying that all straight white males are nerdy, or that being nerdy has no effect on the hardship you face in life. Which one is it?

This makes it a complex problem and a balancing act, but it doesn't mean we just throw our hands up in the air and give up. For example, California's Labor Code contains this piece of legislation protecting freedom of speech again

It's hard to assume good faith in your opinion when the article that published his memo explicitly stated that they had removed the references from it.

Until the late 60s, "programming" had very little to do with the "software development" that bloomed in the 70s. Interestingly, "dumb frat bros" are somehow not affected by people calling them that and manage t

Did you not just give an example yourself - the "masculine" startup culture is often in the news as very unwelcoming?

Conversely, people usually go through profound behavioral transformations several times in their lives. Does that mean they are not "themselves" anymore?

But there is no "overload" to `this` in JavaScript. It works the same way every time. It's an implicit parameter that is passed when you call the function. It can also be bound, just like all the explicit parameters. The six

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Is it culturalism to say that Western cultures value free speech? If you just wanted to say that parent was wrong that Chinese don't value free speech, why the diatribe abou

I don't think the mention of Trump was political - it's undisputed that his presidency has been plagued by leaks so far. The mention of Scaramucci seems to be closer, I don't understand the relevance of it.

But to circle back to the original topic - if users would be much happier with 100/100 instead of 80/100, then Apple's refusal to allow developers to achieve 90/100 with the same effort is crippling user happiness.

Mobx doesn't do anything to alleviate the complexity that comes eith asynchronicity. It does help with boilerplate, though. I think most people are more comfortable with object composition rather than function composition, so Mobx feel
