More mental gymnastics trying to believe whatever Trump has up next on his plate to rant about isn’t propaganda aimed at inciting violence.

Let’s entertain the possibility that Twitter is doing this to influence the election. So what? There’s no law prohibiting these types of businesses from supporting a political candidate. They could plaster a huge “Vote For X” banner at the

Twitter doesn’t need to be consistent about anything. You abide by their TOS or don’t use it, the same way a store with “No shoes, no shirt, no service” can kick you out.

For #3, it’s because the contract for making the official test for the US is going to be awarded to a friend of someone in the committee, and they have to wait for said friend to have tests ready.

Very high. Almost all switches I’ve seen made by the community are simply Frankenstein switches made with different springs, housings, or stems from other switches. For example, all the “Holy Pandas” are is a stem from one brand of switch (

I’d like to hope all startups aren’t like this, but the incessant talk about culture and values at my last one could only be interpreted as USSR-type propaganda.

The problem is that you’re not just selling your DNA. You’re selling the DNA of everyone in your entire family. Do you have their consent? Because I’d be really, really pissed off if I found my sister or anytime in my family did this test.

I don’t really enjoy this response because Los Alamos was purpose built by the government to develop the bomb and realistically, could have been constructed in any remote area of the US. The government even used eminent domain to force ranc

MDMs can, but no employer in their right mind ever should actually take the steps to enable sms tracking. I used to work in IT, and have rolled out MDM programs for startups before. What needs to happen is a signed contract between the empl

I sometimes ride 100+ miles a week, so me moving out of the Bay Area probably extended my lifespan by a good 5-10 years. Seriously the drivers in that area are so terrible, with Uber drivers taking it a step higher. For the average cyclist,

This is the kicker here. Nothing else matters. A business dedicated to privacy is completely incompetent if they can’t even use HTTPS. I cancelled my sub minutes after learning about the news. I would hope the PIA engineer can see through
