Right, I was only told flat-out that I was banned for the Snowden comment, but by all means, go ahead and rewrite history and make it about the totally innocuous comment that preceded it. Wouldn't be the first time I've seen it d

My comment was hardly "abusive". And this is probably the second time in ten years that I've been called out for a comment I've made here, which is hardly a "ton of slack" or "more warnings than most.&q

Except Facebook being okay with discrimination and hate speech is literally spelled out in the slide deck. As long as you don't tickle the right combination of "protected class" by using an appropriate modifier (e.g. "b

I left facebook last month. I don't miss it, I'm happier for it, and articles like this kinda vindicate that decision. It's nice to see that the things I was observing there are, in fact, exactly what the company is okay wit

I'm pretty much done with Facebook for good. They simply don't give a shit about the rampant racism, sexism, and homophobia going on all over their site. Reporting comments gets you nowhere. Calling out these idiots gets you banne

It bugs me that "reputable" news outlets like Fortune Magazine were running stories which essentially amounted to a Fraunhofer press release with a couple of paragraphs tacked onto it. Clearly there's absolutely no effort inv

If your office has a place to sleep, your company is probably taking advantage of you. If it's renting strippers, it's probably a pretty misogynist culture, as well. Sounds like an exhausting and terrible place to work, frankly.

This kind of thing is going to just keep happening, and there's really not a whole lot anyone can do to stop it. It's been an escalating war of intrusion capabilities among nation-states for the past 20 years, and when some of tho

Not just copper. 100-year-old waterlogged copper. We prefer our transmission lines to be well-aged down here.

Fantastic news. The sooner Uber is no longer a company, the better. Possible criminal charges are the icing on the cake.
