Well, in general this is true of entertainment - the best usually has that "little extra special bit of love" injected into it, and when something is a pet project, it shows, even if the end result isn't good. This happens a

Well you don't even need to look just at commercially available products - just look at the FOSS landscape for what gets produced when there is no financial incentive or IP law to protect the material - certainly we would be in a much

I do and have for our support team for our company when we hire newbies. We have a pretty standard "load-out" of commonly used pages and sites, both internal and external, which are commonly used for support calls for the product.

Some do - I'm not really sure why it's relevant though, if you agree with the host that you'll keep the place tidy, and you don't, you're in breach of your agreement. It's not just a matter of throw money at it

Well, strictly speaking AirBnB is not a hotel. Likewise, you're supposed to abide by house rules. I have no idea what the author had set for their rental, but I have yet to see an AirBnB posting that didn't ask that you please kee

Honestly, the other resposnes to this comment suggest why such suggestions, while done in earnest, might be more harmful that helpful. I appreciate your want, but right now the rule of law with the Border Agents seems to be "As [they]

I would wager that more than likely it's because it's a fairly insubstantial sarcastic post, and quite a few posters on HN prefer that posts have content that drive the discussion related to the topic as opposed to comments like t

There is a slight nuance with this when it comes to support - support often doesn't have the ability to satisfy all customer wants, and sometimes what the customer wants is outside of the supported use cases or the scope of support. Fo

I will agree there is a lot of market hype on that page, but I went to the page after reading the comments expecting to read nothing but buzz words without a clear idea of what the AI does, but I think Adobe is fairly clear on the intended

The above poster may have overstated it slightly; the judge's response had a bit more to it that makes it less of a slap. "Okay. The public will read what you just said. I'm sorry, but the public's right to know what goe

If it's anything like older elevators anywhere else, there's probably a lack of proper parts for repairs and lack of interest in spending money to replace the old elevator with a modern one, not to mention the difficulty in findin

Well, there is truth to this, but I'm not sure the same set of rules apply to some of the mentally distrubed people being discussed. You can find videos fairly easily of the outlier cases on Youtube, persons who patrol boardwalks and d

I agree that there is benefit to a ubiquitous service, but is this not applicable to virtually any service whenever you travel? Searching for Taxis St. Petersburg Russia provides me with the same information and taxi services that locals wo

I disagree. We need alternatives or modernization to current transit systems and companies; we don't need Uber. I'm living abroad at the moment in St. Petersburg Russia, and the local taxi company's response to Uber was basic

Note for the author if they're reading - Tampermonkey has a Safari release as well, and the script works as expected in Safari.

This is primarily why I'm a little torn about the "just send an auth" - Facebook, whether we like it or not, has wedged itself into a huge number of websites far beyond just the facebook domain. Surrendering control of a face

I would suspect a similar circumstance for the author's situation. Facebook does do some weird things to try to resume user engagement, but I've not really seen them re-active accounts on their own. More than likely it was passwor

I don't think that the response is entirely unreasonable; Google doesn't have to comply if they don't want to, and it will just be a game of who flinches first after that. It's not really unprecedented to request a chang

This is not strictly true with US businesses and academia. My last place of employment was a university, and per our legal, all data going through the University email or computers is University property; while there is a pledge from IT tha

To be fair, there's an equal amount of trash software available from your laptop/desktop as well, the only difference being that there isn't a centralized repository that it all must go through; the trash heap that rests unde

A minor point to correct though - the complainants at no point sought to take down the videos, nor was the order from the DoJ to take down the videos. Never did the case order that Berkley had to stop distributing them - it was Berkley&#x27
772.
by csydas 10y ago
I disagree with that conclusion. I'm trying to say Berkley has the resources as determined by a third party, has been lying about compliancy, violating Federal and their own implemented procedures, and during the production of these vi

by csydas 10y ago
I don't think anyone disagrees that the videos are good to have, but it's not the issue of whether or not Berkley should have been distributing the videos, it's that Berkley was not fulfilling its obligations. As outlined in

by csydas 10y ago
> Do you expect Berkley to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to have over 20,000 videos transcribed and captioned? Since they had implemented such a policy, required staff to sign off on it, and also claimed to be compliant with such

I'm afraid it's probably just too rooted in tradition. My parter and her mother are Russian, and Russians hold to this theory like you wouldn't believe - if the two of them had it their way, I'd be bundled up and ready t

I agree, though would add that it's not even so much about the exhaustion as it is that being 100% open all the time can also lead to intentionally misleading data being processed. For example, I would assume most people have been the

Are you referring to another instance where this happened or to something in the article where you felt that the journalist reporting was making an assertion? I cannot identify any statement or section within the article where the journalis

Well, yes, maintaining a utility is difficult, but it's also quite doable in many locations around the US where municipal fiber is present and running pretty peachy. I lived in Tacoma, south of Seattle, for a bit, and the municipal bro
