In what universe is requiring them the only alternative to banning them? The actual alternative is obvious: not banning them.

As someone who's really into music theory, I am always annoyed by what I perceive as a patronizing faux exaltation of it supposedly being mathematically based. It's not math; it's cyclical patterns. Yes, it can all be repre

Just let go of the notion that a 4 day github history necessarily means the project is only 4 days old. It's a ridiculous assumption to base an argument off of. It's extremely normal to have work in one, perhaps internal, repo w

What is this "security through obscurity" you're talking about? We're talking about running linux in a VM running in a browser. That has just as much attack surface (and in some ways, more) as running linux in a hyperv
