Gotcha. If they're breaking the site-wide rules, then I guess the ban is warranted. My main concern is the trend of selectively enforcing rules just on those you disagree with, and being lenient with those you agree. That could be seen

Not having browsed the subreddit before the ban... Was Doxing really common? Or are you saying it was a ”very positive action“ for the whole website because you disagree with their political views or tone?

It's the idea that people hold positions, or claim to hold such positions to signal (show off) how virtuous they are. For instance, say I don't have strong feelings about policy X. However, in my social circle policy X is seen as

Nitpick: Contrary to popular belief, the pyramids were actually built by well paid, reasonably skilled workers that were treated decently, and not by slaves: http://harvardmagazine.com/2003/07/who-built-the-pyramid

If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably an issue with the build/deploy system. Perhaps someone deployed a broken build, then tried to revert/rollback, and realized that the previous version didn't build "clean

IMO, you should set up an analytics funnel to measure landing page conversion or (for web apps) usage metrics based on browser version. Whenever the cost of supporting old, ES5-only browsers (measured by the amount of time spent debugging&#

It's decent, but far from perfect. Working are: Intellisense, go to definition, some type information on hover. Sometimes, however, autocomplete doesn't work. (If the file is too big, or if you use macros, both of which are very c

We can sorta already do that by inlining SVGs inside CSS (but perhaps it's cheating)

Yay! My favorite new feature is "vibrancy" using the modern OS X API for that. Terminal.app still uses Quartz filters for the blur effect, which while more flexible offers way slower performance whenever there's something ani

- Font rendering is very inconsistent across platforms, so your icons can look pretty bad (e.g. on Windows) - You're more likely to hit aligment/layout issues because you're using a tool designed for text to render pictures -

You could (and in fact probably should) do what GitHub does. Fetch the images, store a copy and serve them yourself. That way even if the external URLs stop working, the images on your forum/site will remain functional.

I lurk and occasionally interact here, but this made me kinda concerned so I figured I'd reply. Not sure if this is the appropriate place for feedback (If it isn't, sorry in advance!) But just my 2¢: I personally don't think

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if Emacs was licensed under a more liberal license (MIT, BSD) such forks would still be possible. (Non-free forks would also be possible)

Doesn't ARM have very different memory consistency guarantees than x86 across cores, requiring memory barriers? I figured that would be one of the trickiest parts of emulating x86 on ARM

Dear browser makers: Please don't. There are legitimate uses for this feature. If websites are abusing it, simply stop visiting them, or install an ad/content blocker. What maybe browser makers could introduce is a "switch&qu

I feel like this transition would go way way smoother if Apple released a single Apple TV-sized USB-C to everything else hub, with USB-A, DVI, HDMI, thunderbolt ports, instead of 5 different adapters. Even better, they could have added all

The GPL incompatibility issue has nothing to do with Apple not allowing emulators. (After all there are BSD/MIT emulators) They don't want (non-sandboxed) interpreters running unreviewed code. Right now the only interpreter allowe

Why should nudity be disallowed in the first place, though? The photo is clearly not sexual or pornographic. As for censoring it partially: Are we really totally fine with seeing someone burned by napalm, just not with seeing their genitals
