I've met Stéphane, he's great in person as well. I briefly considered applying to Canonical despite the stories of poor conditions, just to get the chance to work with him. I hope he does well.

We just had one of these bloom in Houston: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R66QcLvWBXA&t=3140s If you've never seen one in bloom, you should go! They smell awful though, haha.

This is an extremely basic and superficial take on multiple factors that hollowed out Philadelphia and surrounding area.

> Facebook has decided to be unreasonable, irresponsible, and started blocking news. Are they acting unreasonably though? There is a product, and the government rules it has a price. Isn't Facebook allowed to go, sorry, I don't

I don’t know why the reporting is so poor on this bill. Everyone is focusing on water breaks but it’s so wide ranging - it preempts any and every ordinance a city could pass that is already covered under state law. This does prevent city wa

Why do you think a phone call (with implied privacy and the legal framework to back it up) is the same as a company providing you public presence under their brand name, and advertising revenue?

Mixed feelings here. First, the false positive issue. Second, the network effect, being locked out of buying anything to eat if you shoplift. Third, the potential to track my movement to local stores that use the service, even if I am a non

I don't understand the post title. Ondřej does this in his free time, you're not entitled to his labor. LTS only lasts 5 years, you shouldn't be building out new systems on such an out of date OS. If your business processes d

A UFO could be a drone, or small aircraft. There have been a lot of UFO encounters by our armed forces, including those with novel capabilities, and capabilities we do not understand. It is beyond unlikely that any of these are alien to Ear

I don't think this is right, hunter-gather diets were largely restricted to the area they lived, you can't across the board call them diverse. It depends if you lived in an area that was blessed with diversity, or if you were forc

Agree with all of this except /r/iosgaming, have seen more than a few requests for quality games get drowned out with “there’s nothing wrong with mtx, just don’t buy it” People get weirdly defensive when you mention that you don’t

I wasn’t aware it was higher than one, this is pretty cool. However, despite the size of the bone they’re tossing, I don’t think this is enough to shake the image of a company trying to cash out its good will. I’m very skeptical of using EL

Is there any evidence that discourse here would be improved by encouraging mobile users to slam out mobile-sized comments?

You are assuming that him getting paid: 1.) alleviates all concerns of the other 3rd party apps 2.) alleviates bot concerns, moderator concerns, a11y concerns 3.) he has magic words that can whisk away the above 4.) that he has any leverage

I don’t see how you could get misled when the peaks are annotated and immediately and clearly visible.

This isn't that surprising, you used to be able to add anyone on the entire site as a moderator and it'd autoaccept. It's doubtful he actually moderated it in any capacity. He's still moderator of some random subreddits.

You'd likely have to enter an API agreement with Reddit, and it's unlikely they'd be willing to run you through the sales funnel and write up a contract just sell you what's effectively a $3/mo API plan. That said,

I remember a lot of sealioning and a lot of users here becoming frustrated at bad faith arguments. Debates were frequently less than civil. Also note that you are quoting a relatively biased pro-business thinktank who is only looking at mor

It's a blog post from a prominent person in the tech community sharing their pain and perspective. That's relevant. Human rights for people who work on our software is important.
