Consider when searching "nissan" in Google, http://www.nissan.com/ is the fourth result despite being essentially a parked page that no one would ever really want when making that search. I would say TLDs are very influential.

I think it's naive to trust Amazon won't abuse their authority over the .book TLD. It's not a slippery slope argument so much as it's a common sense argument. Most companies do not feel obligation to do anything unless it starts costing the

I wouldn't have a problem with that since it's a .com (which means a commercial website.) I would really like to see the Library of Congress get .books and make each ISBN a domain.

If ICANN has the final say, they don't need to sue them then, do they? > Giving amazon control of .whatever is no more dangerous than giving north korea control of .kp. The TLD denotes some sort of category. Giving North Korea control

Sued by whom? I only see another large corporation being able to take on Amazon. Then we're in the same boat as before. These TLDs are supposed to be generic, not country-specific like .ly or .io or .uk. Giving private entities control over

I doubt their userbase using IE7 is large enough for this to be a big deal. This tax's real goal is PR for Kogan.

You've obviously never looked at the Django/Flask/requests/SQLAlchemy code if you think lack of comments is a problem in Python.

It certainly doesn't make any sense from a consistency standpoint, but then again, Facebook is one of the least consistent web apps I've used. Everything from their developer SDKs/APIs to their end user mobile apps are ever-changing and oft

You being an atheist really has nothing to do with this. Being offended at how women are objectified/marginalized in the tech industry and being offended at someone's personal religious choice are two completely different things. Also, it's

Great article! My apologies if this is too off-topic, but it's interesting to see everyone's virtualenv setup. I normally have my project/site/app in my environment folder, so it looks something like: projectenv/ bin/ incl

It's only pro-gay when it's trying to be anti-religion/anti-government. Any other time, the site is hostile to the LGBT community (and women, and people of color, and ...).

That was a really informative post about the culture— business and otherwise— in Japan. A question for Jason, should he read this: I'd love to hear your personal reason for developing with the Japanese market specifically in mind. I think i

> Thus, he owns the legal rights for his sexual intercourse to be considered lawful. What? Since when do you need to "own the legal rights" to perform sexual intercourse? Are you saying I cannot legally have sex unless I'm married? I'

> The usage of "his woman" would be routed from translation of Bible from Hebrew. Mmm, except we're not talking about a transliteration of a Bible verse. This is colloquial usage of the term "his woman" in the English language with re

"His wife" or "his partner" may not imply ownership, but "his woman" most certainly does. Aside from all the cultural connotations, using the common noun "woman" instead of associating a relationship between them depersonalizes her.

Does that somehow make it not sexist? You gave the history of it but the parent comment was not arguing history. I'm not sure what your comment has to do with the parent.

Is the difference you're implying the fact it's Mark Zuckerberg, the person whose company just went public and is a relatively famous Internet entrepreneur? I'm not trying to take a side, but I'm not sure which difference you're implying an

I found their website to be beautifully designed as well. I had no idea what Karma was, but a single click and scroll told me exactly what it was and how it works. It's also pretty neat. Good on these folks for making something awesome!

But you have knowledge of programming, correct? Or are you saying you have absolutely no idea how to program?

Knowing that programming could solve a problem requires knowledge of programming. Someone with zero programming experience doesn't look at a problem and say, "Yeah I can write a script to solve that."

Same. I've been to multiple doctors, and each time, the "privacy policy" (either a HIPAA form or something similar) was included on the paper I was signing. That's not to say Stallman's experience did not happen, but it is certainly not the

Thanks for your response. The Rails example was on the tip of my tongue as I hit "reply", but I couldn't remember it.
