I would tone the statement down, but it's still true that the number one purpose of a for-profit business is to generate profit. All other activity, in general, is secondary to profit. It's like saying a human doesn't need to

When 99.99% of ads on 99.99% of sites are horrible monstrosities of Javascript and browser tracking and fingerprinting scripts, they will all be blocked and stay blocked. I'll look at an ad in exchange for viewing your website. I will

You think it's just government? Have you worked much in the private sector?

I would argue that the first statement is simply wrong. Jurors do not answer legal questions at all. They answer questions of fact.

It's easier to suck up your information, access your contact lists and physical location, when you're stuck on a mobile app.

Because guess what, the letter is just a promotion for this new social network that they hope to sell everybody on. It doesn't matter if he really cares about any of those things, only that we think that he cares about those things and

Why oh why does it need to be called "hello"? How the fuck am I supposed to Google for "hello"?

This is where I always run into problems with the conservative line of thinking. Private pharma depends on public research, the same way most commerce depends on some kind of public infrastructure or groundwork. We help lay the groundwork f

But are there more than two biological genders ? Or are we just talking about "my special identity" genders?

Stop. Fucking. Talking. About. 10x. Programmers. Seriously. Just stop. Fucking stop.

But people take it at face value. And if 10,000 is just a made-up number, then is he even saying anything of value? It takes thousands of hours to become an expert at something. Wow! Really? Who knew!?

Yeah, the Russian media certainly plays a big role in this, and while I can't speak for all of them, many of the Russians and Ukrainians I've spoken to are incredibly cynical about it. They see democracy as a farce used by the rul

If it's in common usage, then it is in fact grammatically sensical. The strangest cases can refer to those cases that, as a group, are all stranger than cases outside the group.

The only reason people might think of Java as slow, is because of desktop applications like LibreOffice, IntelliJ, or Eclipse. Java on the server blows Python out of the water in terms of speed.

Not in Canada! As long as you're a participant in the conversation, you can legally and surreptitiously record to your heart's content.

Can we please stop posting Forbes links?

I love how when a canary goes down, everyone's arguing about what it means. Of course if the company received an NSL they won't confirm it and will lie about the canary to protect their business. Why should we take their statement

I think what he's getting at is a valid point. It won't just be rebels against the military. If the rebellion or revolution picks up enough steam, significant elements of the military will likely defect to the other side and in a

Simply use MongoDB with its default settings, and you're good to go with the next Snap-whatever product you want to build.

Ethical? Maybe, maybe not. Should we do it? Absolutely yes. As long as it's easier to pirate Game of Thrones than it is to watch it legally, I would say we have a duty to send the message to HBO et al that they need to change their bus

As a web dev I'm definitely in favor of keeping people updated. However, MS should never never never fucking never interrupt somebody to force an upgrade.

You can't say this though, without also saying that in reality, only 1/3 feel strongly about leaving. 2/3 of the population did not vote to leave. It's not really relevant to make a comparison with the total population,

I don't think the comparison with drugs or other illegal activity is appropriate. It's not illegal to sign a contract to give somebody money in exchange for something. Nobody has signed a contract to conduct illegal activities lik
