I apologize for commenting on my own link, but I am somewhat shocked that GitHub removed this repo https://github.com/FeministSoftwareFoundation/C-plus-Equalit... presumably after receiving criticism for it on twitter.

I don't understand I guess, how did the change to how block work allow 1800 follower requests in that the old way block worked kept out?

If I go to comment at a wordpress site it says this: "Email (required) (Address never made public)" MD5 leaks of my email address into web pages is in fact making my address public. Hey lmm, duh, when you make a comment under a di

In all our worry about NSA taps, the simple fact is that gravatar and now disqus allows anyone NSA, your health insurance company, groups who dislike your group, etc., to track your blog comments, help desk comments, any comment you make ar

I can't imagine ever wanting to work for Bryan Cantrill or Joyent or even contribute to node.js in any capacity. I encourage Cantrill and Joyent to think about their obligations as founder and employer to their own employees. Ben was n

I predicted this about a week ago in some thread complaining about Amazon delivery when I said I lived in Texas and my packages were being delivered by Blue Origin, which worked fine, but one time left a big hole where my car once was.

I do have that issue with Google keyboard, there are words I want to add, but I don't even get the suggestion from the keyboard to add the app. I wish there was an official tutorial somewhere.

But the headline doesn't mention LSAT, it mentions "preggers" and "pizzle" both words with sexual innuendo attached to them. Thus: TIRED linkbait.

It's shocking for many reasons that Joyent thinks its reasonable to fire an employee over something as trivial as that pull rejection. Not correct him first, but fire him. Not stand behind him, as in "sometimes we all make errors&

So my argument for her or him, he or she, rather than they, is that her or him, he or she, in documentation humanizes the documentation. It piques my interest. There is an active person here. It's not boring, dead trees, produced for s

I do appreciate the literary history (and I really do), but it's needlessly ambiguous in an environment where it can easily be construed to mean what it commonly and currently not in Shakespeare's time means: a plethora of writers

I dislike both "him" and "them" in this example, but of the two, "him" is more accurate since the code is referring only to a single writer, and not to a collection of writers. "them" may feel to Alex

that's my take on it too. EFF is tipping their hat to agendas far beyond electronic freedom in saying they endorse this use.

Yeah, all that stuff bugs me too. I am curious, are there web analytics that let publishers know that a page was seen them immediately closed? (Or that say your video was stopped after 3 seconds?)

I am genuinely torn. I would like them to win in terms of copyright theory. I wish there was someway to come to terms with Adam's will however. Though presumably an innocent mistake, I do think that's a very big deal (on a karmic

As well intentioned as GoldieBlox might be, they apparently violated the wishes of Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys, and possibly his will, which prohibits the use of his music "artistic property" for advertising purposes after his

Only semi-related, I must have $200 in loose change collected over the years (and years). What the hell to do with them? Turns out I can take them to coinstar at the local Krogers and turn them into cash but they will take a chunk of the ch

I don't know what it's like being black, and I am not trying to diminish your feelings or the author's on this, and thank you for acknowledging how Jews and gays feel. I am Jewish. I am an older programmer I am older
