There's a difference? Would be nice if author actually pointed what he thinks is a problem.

It's just about making a choice of which spy agency is going to get your data. NSA for western companies, KGB-or-whatever for Russian ones. If you live in the West, it may be worth considering both options.

I really though it was about telling off the publisher.

How does that make them the worst?

It's nice that you like C#, but I don't see how that's related to the parent comment. You certainly cannot argue that C# does a better job at all mentioned tasks than the languages the parent listed.

After reading this I threw up a bit in my mouth. This feels like it was written by a marketing person.

Author, please stop responding to every negative comment. That looks pretty pathetic, especially when you just expose your lack of expertise this way.

So, in other words, learn to slap layers'n'shit together. I thought that's what everyone is already doing in deep learning.

Well if your text editor is not powerful enough, maybe it's a problem.

I guess one must have quite short arms to play comfortably in such a set-up.

Yes, but why make html presentations at all? Are there any tangible benefits except for fancy animations?

I don't see how is that relevant. Why should we care about his brother having an identity crisis? It's sad, but even the brother complains about being overshadowed by his dead brother, not about his brother being made into icon.

It's not like he cares, being dead and all.

What's the point of bringing this rag here? I don't see anything new in the article and there is not even a pretense of unbiased opinion there. It's like reading Pravda

I do not agree with your interpretation of the Facebook naming policy - in my opinion people of non-majority cultures experience problems simply due to limited resources and maybe negligence, not evil intent or societal demand to "fit

I do still think that you are comparing apples and oranges here. Racism, xenophobia and apartheid are things that exist on totally different level from "subtle privilege of having western-sounding name on facebook" or other percei

I think anonymous logins and Facebook accounts just do not combine very well.

Or just have a mostly unused real-name account that you use for contacting your friends, when you can't reach them otherwise. Why even have a fake facebook account? Facebook will know it's you. The government will too. If you don&

So far the criticism seems convincing and grounded in reality. You don't have to be a farmer to evaluate the comments regarding the overly high price for whats inside the container, absence of tractor. I would also trust the comments o

Oh, very apt! I think the highly developed American individualism is a fitting thing to bring up in this discussion. Good point about the luggage\food, which you need only in some cases. I guess meticulously optimizing every aspect of the f

Nothing wrong at all if it was really working that way, i.e. that someone would really get a cheaper price than a normal package. The article does make a point that it's not really what is happening, instead the companies are squeezing

The reply by "whiddershins" is spot on, but I will elaborate a bit. The first point is that you are very quick to label all paid services as "luxury". Sure, champagne is a luxury, but what the companies are doing is taki

I am sorry if I accidentally hurt your feelings or slighted your national pride. I am simply making an observation based on my general experience with Americans on the web and the sentiment I've noticed. My experience certainly is bias

by dagenleg 10y ago
It's peculiar how stereotypical some of the Americans in the comments are. It seems like there's a prevailing attitude of not wanting to "subsidize" others. Whether that includes people who want to bring luggage, people

Oh, don't worry, just because you are not interested in Facebook, doesn't meant it's not interested in you.
