What zealotry are we talking about? JetBrains's bots? I'd hardly call a bot making a polite non-binding suggestion "zealotry" I'm told Tinder is starting to do a similar thing with DMs. I'm either case, you can

It literally isn't. It's a figurative cancer on white supremacy. Besides, who's talking about critical race theory?

Speak up about what? Of course there's a majority of white men who don't see a problem with the status quo because they never feel the negative effects of it. I see two categories of detractors, when it comes to these cultural shi

Their channel, their rules. You know, folks, it's okay to think about doing things differently, as a culture. I mean, we have no problem switching web stacks every year or so.

I think genetic data should be strongly protected. I also think that once that data exists, the cat's out of the bag. Investigators won't ignore the method of forensic genealogy, if that's something they're interested in

HTML embedded into email templates often uses tables for layout. If you get a commercial email and the content has graphic borders around the content, check the source and you'll probably see a table. Also emails with text content in c

I respect your moral stance. It's hard to compare the serial bombings in your link to the Dagoberto ones. The Austin ones all seem to be attempted murders, not extortion of large companies. I suppose that could mean the Austin bomber s

We should look. But, my guess is that there are texts where there's a German copyright claim. That would make it a piracy site in Germany.

I've been pondering the problem this plays into. It's likely that at least some portion of the remaining 20% of commenters were influenced by the fakes. Those people could see the techcrunch article as bogus, fake news. I wonder h

I've checked it out and run it on various things. It might be a better choice, but pretty much only because it's current and maintained. The use case is a little different. IDJC has a lot of features for live DJs who are doing stu

I know some low budget radio stations use winamp to output their playlists, mostly because of the shoutcast plugin. It's crazy, but it kinda works.

I don't understand the sentiment. The reason we're set to follow the federal standard is because we voted for it on a ballot measure. (CA) So we're obviously exercising states rights. I will say, however, that the ballot meas

People seem worried about the connection being wireless on this battery. As far as I can tell from the article, the only consequence of a connectivity loss is: GM gets less data. It doesn't seem consequential to the consumer.

It's true. This can only work for a little while, then all your hard work is gone forever. Your identity is hard-coded. Anonymous is definitely Debby's dad, and Bills cousin. Other datasets indicate that Debby's dad and Bills

This is the eventuality that WebPlatform.org was supposed to prepare us for. But I think WebPlatform failed because most of the docs were upstream at MDN, and people never stopped looking there.

I see your point about separation of concerns. This minesweeper, and the other examples in the comments, seem to capitalize on some hacky aspects of CSS, not features of the CSS spec. In the real world, I doubt many people rely on CSS for t

Eventually that data will become associated with your real identities. How could it not? you're obviously so-and-so's grandfather/first-cousin/whatever, and they gave their names.

That sounds like "predictive policing". The problem is that the institution that wants to predict crime might be inclined to use attributes of people who were previously arrested/convicted as the basis for the predictive mode

A sleek and modern look for the time? The basic UI was already over a decade old! (paintbrush) It's cool that you like it, but that's a surprising way to describe it. As I recall (as a user of windows 3.1, 95, ME and XP), the cons
