No, that's not how Twitter bots work. They damage the overall ecosystem in both active and passive ways. Of course you can choose to not follow someone/something, but they can still harm your experience as a user.

It feels as though Twitter has a vested interest in making its network seem as active as possible, irrespective of quality of interaction. In a way, Twitter's userbase appears like a captive audience - they've no desire to leave,

PRIDE has its fair share of preposterous exhibition matches though, to be fair. But no, I'm not a fan either.

Rizin FF[1] is the new PRIDE, in essence. It too has a 'relaxed' stance on PEDs. [1]: http://www.rizinff.com/en/

I find it quite shocking how little of the NY subway is automated.

See reply from Sharlin below: > It's just poor writing. Either you paraphrase what people are saying, or you cite someone specific.

The quote is fine, but the attribution to "people" rather than an individual is frankly odd. Multiple people said that exact same quote? I believe one person on Twitter originated it.

Maybe The Independent could have found a human to work on his copy with him?

> People, who work with Mr Hutchins investigating malware, have said "it looks like the US justice system has made a huge mistake". Who on earth let this article go out with that in it?

He's certainly a better photographer than writer, as I found that an overworked chore to read.

Indeed. This struck me at times as a rather bizarre, alien article for someone who lives in Great Britain and owns a combination washer-dryer - both aspects of it work, it isn't noisy, and it was not expensive.

Perhaps everyone has simply decided to not work on Half-Life 3, you mean?

Love it. Great web app from a really good company. I use Ableton a lot and I'm continually impressed with their software and content marketing activity.

You should give MotoGP a try. Sure, it's two wheels instead of four, but the whole 'pinnacle of racing technology' angle is there, and every race is exciting. There are clear stand-out riders and makes, but a winner is not gu

I was mulling on something similar the other day, except I was thinking that it might be sent to a Lagrange point. Might be more stable/less in harms way?

I don't find it particularly confusing. It's a lot of data, but if you take the time to look at it, not really hard to interpret.

The headline chosen by the BBC does not sit well with me. "Take my brain out" feels very click bait-y, and maybe even slightly exploitative. "I take my brain out and recharge it" is the snippet of that quote in context.

> I don't consider sleeping rough reasonable Well, when you put it like that, I'm sure the homeless would understand. Why not go and tell them to their faces? I'm sure they've never considered any alternative options

What a bizarrely hostile-feeling response. I'm not sure the person you were responding to was making the point that we are building for 100+ years of use, simply that most properties where he lives were easily as old as that and experi
