Wow that is...quite the edit lol. I'm all for small corrections and addendums, but completely changing the meaning of your comment from an attempted callout is something else.

That's a reasonable concern and may even be true for some instances, but in the case of Milo Yiannopoulos for example, he practically just went away. Milo himself says he spent all of his savings and lost his friends. Even his most ard

I was just asking about this Google "feature" on Twitter [1]. I can't imagine why anyone would want "must include" to mean anything but, and if it doesn't mean exactly that to Google, then they shouldn't s

> this statement is objectively incorrect If you're looking to be technically right, then you picked an easy spot. Your own employees call you a spam company. Out of respect for them, maybe you can loosen your interpretation enough

Yes! This happened to me too and is very alarming. It’s training users to fall for phishing. I’m not sure what a correction looks like though. Should they call customers and instruct them to find or verify a phone number and call back? Inst

The largest species can draw blood and might if they thought your wiggling finger were a flying insect. I don't know of any cases where a mantis did "real damage" to a human.

Nobody is talking about double buffering. We’re talking about non-animated page scroll, which instantly replaces content with other content, a preference that you share with very few people.

> When I press page-down I want to scroll a page down immediately You are among a tiny minority and come off as trying really hard when insisting that animations are useless. Very few people want a 0ms screen flash on page scroll.
