he used a poor link for it, but that doesn't make it untrue - it is indeed true, their game is a blatant copy of candy swipe http://metro.co.uk/2014/02/13/candy-crush-saga-makers-to-sue...

it's not only overreach, it's obvious human rights abuse people have a right to not be indiscriminately surveilled by every country that they don't live in.

the sub-OS was my immediate thought when I saw it is an android device.

Yeah. crazy invasive and creepy was definitely my first reaction. I'm not a fan of the whole 'internet of things' to begin with, no thanks. My stuff doesn't need to track everything i do with it.

You are incorrectly equivocating informally acceptable with formally correct.

> There is no singular "them." exactly why it is incorrect to use in the singular. and this is the difference between formal and informal. there are rules that are widely accepted (formal) and then there are actual usages that

Actually, you're not getting it. While the use of 'them' and 'themselves' is increasingly acceptable informally, it still violates basic rules of plurality that most people agree upon, and is thus formally incorrect

When you know you're referring to a woman, sure. But when the gender is unclear, it shouldn't be a feminism issue. This entire argument has always seemed ridiculous to me, and I mean really, go look at the Spanish language...

among other reasons, having rules matters precisely to ENABLE the making of small mistakes while still preserving the whole idea being communicated. without the rules, the language has no meaning whatsoever.

"Themselves" is correct because it is plural. What of the singular?

I am not claiming that 'him' is a replacement for 'them' 'them' is plural and flatly incorrect when used as a singular pronoun. edit: Again, 'them' is formally incorrect but informally acceptable in t

Texting and using IM is bad advice. This is a personal preference at best and an absurdly overbroad and flatly incorrect statement at worst

This is, however, formally incorrect. "If a student has an inappropriate question, whatever you do, do not berate him." would be formally correct edit: and your corpus search correctly shows that the plural 'themselves'

Saying I can only make a claim if I have done a certain study is somewhat absurd, especially when you are, with that suggestion, claiming to be the authority on how to determine what is correct.

I don't think it's necessarily obvious or common knowledge today as it would have been maybe a decade or so ago. I also don't take for granted that the author of the post knows this since he doesn't mention this current

With all the revelations of built in weaknesses and such with existing encryption schemes... I don't know. I think we need a new one. That said, it should probably be developed by a panel of experts. I would love to see something by Br

Barring a jarring alteration of the existing trajectory, the US will soon have just as watered down free speech rights.

You state your view as though it's obvious, yet it is far more contrived of an explanation and is predicated on the idea that Nolan would change his mind about the ring and NOT fix it throughout, which seems so unlike him
