Of course. "Community" meaning something people opt in to use, is what I meant. But the company should have an over-arching set of community standard so people know what's expected of them when they participate.

Yeah, most of the "freedom of speech" / "get rid of censorship" stuff I see seems to be code for "let people be assholes." Which, okay. But there's a line where you're just being too toxic for th

Depends on your goals. If your goal is to write something just for yourself -- maybe to practice a technical element of the craft or just to have total artistic freedom -- then go for it! That's actually a fine goal. I work on many cre

Don't let the shitbag xenophobe minority convince you to not visit our country. Stick it to 'em by bringing your foreign ass here and enjoying the hell out of the place.

You make good points about community. As far as politics, you're playing that game of false-equivalence that I thought we'd kind of moved past. Pro- and Anti-Trump aren't just two teams with different uniforms.

I'm not anti-AirBnB. I'm pro-community. A house is in a neighborhood. An apartment in a shared building. I think we need to make sure we have some rules in place to make sure AirBnB-style sharing is a benefit to everyone and not j

The ACLU didn't have $24m burning a hole in their pocket four months ago. Also, conservatives need to get off their "persecuted" high horse for a second and take a look around themselves. Donald Trump is the one butt-fumbling

I believe the argument, though, is that transportation is a commodity product and, therefore, pricing is a race to the bottom. Say all cars are autonomous and on-demand. You need a car. Uber costs $20. Lyft costs $15. Who do you go with? Wh

First, a fun fact: I was in a class teaching the Heimlich Maneuver yesterday afternoon. The teacher notes that Heimlich is, in fact, still alive at 96 years old. Not five minutes later someone holds up their iPhone -- "hey, I just got

Median household income in South Carolina (where they're located) is, according to Wikipedia $43,916. So. While you and I might scoff at whatever amount $70k is before bonuses, if you're unemployed in South Carolina you could do a

"...pay starts at $12 an hour and goes up to $70,000 a year including overtime and bonuses..." So let's call it $24k (not including bonuses) up to $70k (including bonuses). That's my interpretation.

My read is that Trump doesn't have any particular plan beyond fame and feeling important. If that means holding completely opposing views one day to the next, so be it. This is dangerous, don't get me wrong. And he's absolute

There will never be a candidate who does exactly what you want. Bernie would've pissed his supporters off for some reason or other had he been elected. We have to pick from an array of imperfect options. Whichever candidate you feel is

Citizens United vs FEC is only ~7 years old and, if I recall, Hillary only ran in one election during that time frame. The same number that Trump ran in. Regardless: The whole idea of campaign finance reform is that it's too powerful:
