That's all pure preference. If you have different preferences fine, but calling someone else's preferences nonsense doesn't make sense to me.

Two years earlier, he dismissed it as "just a tool like a typewriter": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmxOq9STmQM , so it's interesting how he evolved. He does already say that he liked immediate feedback fro

I agree with you about that, but I also (might) agree with them about this. Not that you said otherwise, but... I think we should go back to a transactional mix-and-match style of politics, with different coalitions per issue, instead of th

The entire second half of the OP explains in detail why there may be a First Amendment case here, including some interesting precedents.

What does that have to do with allegations of government censorship pressure?

It may be not be a huge difference in the context of this case, though, since the plaintiffs' First Amendment argument would apply just as much to the government "filtering out or demarcating content believed to be inaccurate or a

I suppose this means it would be easy for YouTube to fuck with youtube-dl simply by throwing in more features of JS?

esprehn didn't say it isn't an interpreter. They're saying it is an interpreter and what it's interpreting isn't (all of) JS. That's also what you're saying, so you're agreeing with esprehn. Edit: Y

That's not an example of what you claimed. As far as I know the 'monarchy' dude is Yarvin. I'd be surprised if Thiel had publicly committed himself to anything so sophomoric, and it would be interesting to see an actual
