1) Why so judgmental? 2) As somebody with ADHD, there's an unacceptable level of mental overhead required for organizing things. I simply don't have any spare bandwidth to add organizing tabs into bookmarks and organizing bookmark

And you don't have the right to absolute privacy and secrecy just because it's more convenient to you, especially when they're extraneous things like your salary and not your private life. Ridiculous.

Which leads to the real problem. People have been treating real estate like an investment for decades now. You're essentially going to wipe out the wealth of all the middle class by doing so, so you're up against an immovable wall

Because that information has benefits for labor as a whole. Conversely, "I want my salary to be a secret" isn't a good reason to keep it private and I don't see any good reason why it nerds to be private. Nobody is askin

Okay, and how do you define a seat exactly? Because what is a seat for one person is half a seat for another or two thirds of a seat for the airline. There is no universal definition for what a seat size should be, so your comment is just h

Copyright was never meant to give perpetual rights, which is what your scheme would do (as it does now). So might as well not change the current system, because the conclusion is the same. The final arbiter was never "does it have comm

That's not how LCD monitors work. I own 1080p, 1440p and 4k monitors and I've gamed on all of them. None of them are blurry. Edit: LCD monitors are not blurry if you use the native resolution. Go learn about pixels and resolutions

So you'd rather just miss the point, ok. It doesn't matter how much revenue Battle.net makes for them. The multitude of developers and publishers that are successful on Steam show that AB is irrelevant to the market. If AB owned a

Even with all these helpers, there's too much cognitive overhead and not enough that IDEs or plugins can do to take that away. Rainbow braces are nice and all, but it's not enough when the underlying concept is broken.
