To be fair, I bet most, if not all, cosmologists would agree that they know far less than they don't know. The title of the article is a bit sensationalistic from that point of view, but then I guess "Cosmology has some big detail

Ah, the pointing out rhetorical devices used, rhetorical device. Thanks for sharing.

There are apparently many, many 'end-users' who feel it does not make a better product for them, but thanks for being such a brazen apologist for shady practices.

Well, you and them can keep loving them until Google and Facebook are the internet. Everyone has played Monopoly - we know how this story ends.

100% there will be multiple class action lawsuits regarding this. Whether it's right or wrong going to be people that will wanna see if they can throw something against the wall and make it stick.

I live in California and this is the first I've heard of this. Legal shrooms not happening this year or any other year soon, imho.

Said 'flame war detection' services are amazing on how consistently they skew toward silencing any right of Chairman Mao posts.

Well, I've reached 'resignation' if not nuance in any case. Or maybe that is a nuance.

I've been developing since 2000 in some form or other and have gone from a true believer who thought the internet would save the world, to someone who thinks it's had an immeasurably negative impact on any number of levels. That s

Yeah, well I ended up with more upvotes than downvotes in the end. So apparently your 'very good reason' was not widely shared. Thanks for trolling anyway. Can alway count on the internet to provide plenty of them.

gizmo686 - For you this may be true. I don't think you can speak for everyone that comes to this thread though. I've said as much as I feel comfortable and safe to say given how hostile the internet and 'discussion' abou

This is very telling to me that I get down voted for having a differing worldview opinion. Social justice for all unless they disagree with you, eh.

Without going into specifics that would surely prove to be incendiary to some, this whole thing makes me feel like some portion of the world has completely lost it. If you feel differently than me or hostile towards me for saying so, that i

This is not hard to imagine at all. I know that there must be some absolutely excellent doctors out there, but I don't trust the bottom 80% of doctors much at all, and honestly would rather have an algorithm most of the time, especiall

I really can't believe that 'OLED touchbar' is the lead off for this thing. a) if I hear 'OLED touchbar' one more time, think I'm going to freak/gag, b) if I cared less about anything regarding a mac in my

The whole hosting issue seems to open a can of worm, at least if this comment stream is any indication. I think it probably would have been better if they stated something more along the lines of, 'Choose (and likely expect to pay) for

"You could have picked almost any company and made a great return in the last 6 months" - exactly. Like crowing about being a great stock picker in '99. So was everyone.

If nations want to nationalize their stock market it's good monetary policy. If nations want to nationalize healthcare it's an improper manipulation of free markets. Simplification of above statements: $good = "logical moneta

In a development world that is already rife with planned obsolescence, the Javascript world is the shining jewel. Reminds me of trying to construct the killer Yu Gi Oh deck. By the time you get all the cool cards, paying a small fortune for

I've gotta say as someone who is not actively developing full time, most of the comments in here read like people in denial. It doesn't really matter what anyone's opinion is, or what any of us say though - the future will br
