   That seems more like a government agency whereas arbitration is usually a privately-run system and, yes, the incentive structures are bad because often the company is paying for it. It also negates the possibility of class-action suits, wh

   That's hardly the concern of companies sticking mandatory arbitration agreements everywhere though.

   You have to be joking if you don't think arbitration is a massive gift to moneyed interests. Why are they all cramming it down everyone's throat if not?

   Yeah... Imagine if in iOS every link opened in Safari and the only alternative browsers allowed were reskins of Safari.

   This is something we like to tell ourselves but they can do a whole lot, especially if the sites in question are expensive to host.

   I am not really sure what your issue is. You don’t know what it means but think it sounds bad? So I’m a bad person for using it?

   Yes, I find it very plausible that a spud writing about Latin literature observes that rule.

   The post I was replying to said "That should be the number one goal - to stop it at it's source instead of dealing with it after the fact." Who's being dishonest here? The gratuitous condescension seems rather unwarran

    How is it “giving up” to disagree with the suggestion of trying to shut the barn door after the horse has bolted rather than trying to chase it down? If we never polluted the water ever again we’d still be left with contaminated water.

    The name "forever chemicals" kind of suggests that these things being in essentially every body of water on earth means we still could use a way to deal with filtration even if we never pollute again.

    It's too late. They're everywhere. They're even in rainwater.

    You'd just get a lot less software as people instituted enough checks to make progress glacial. Not everything needs to be developed like it is a medical device or aerospace software.

    I would agree with what you say, but that's not really a flaw with PowerShell.

    I notice that as operations like Twitter and Facebook attempt to get leaner and meaner the spam problem gets worse. I've never seen so many spambots on Twitter advertising porn and guns, and every third comment I get on Facebook gets

    People were complaining that Windows was "user-hostile bloatware" as long as there's been a Windows to complain about.

    I actually kind of agree with the point about PowerShell but I suppose the problem is everyone is so used to bash scripts that they've forgotten how many annoying pitfalls they have and how cryptic they are to anyone not used to writin

    I find the former much more self-explanatory than the latter but, for instance, can't ForEach-Object be written as for?

    If the long command names bother you so much most have short aliases, but it's worth remembering that the short ones are cryptic and not that instructive if you're not already initiated.

    On the C# IDE front, Rider is excellent on all platforms (even on Windows I prefer it over VS), and a lot of production C# software is now running on Linux. It's not limited the way it used to be. For PS, the other thing is I think pe

    I don't find it hard to resist the compulsion. If I'm driving, I don't look at my phone. Seems like a pretty simple rule to follow. Anyway, I understand that they're doing it because of cost, but if you're going t

    Ideas that are silly thought experiments have a way of actually getting implemented once too many people start paying attention to them.

    Then why is anyone skating for the decision to abandon buttons in the first place? The driver is responsible for paying attention to the road rather than fiddling with the radio.

    In some abstract sense, like how you could say that you should absolutely not drive a car as you could accidentally kill a pedestrian.

    I don't think jail time for making software too bloated and slow for your liking is a serious proposal.

    I often see sentiment like this here but I think there's a disconnect between the sacrifice you're expecting people to make and harm caused by the work. It's admirable for someone to put their own job security second to obey

    It's only a partial solution. You can feel a button without operating it and you can distinguish it among others by feel.
