There's a real mischaracterization / straw man mentioned in some of the comments here about set bonuses, which is different from the special bonus structure in the OP. A set bonus is part of your employment compensation. It's

Clearly not. Looks like we'd need https://docs.aws.amazon.com/pinpoint/latest/userguide/channe... Which isn't bad, but is much more limited than what Twilio provides.

AWS SNS SMS seems best suited for internal communications (we use it for alerts); it does not seem suitable for commercial use where you require targeted sends, you'd have to create a topic for each customer. Source: use it and twilio.

Is disseminating a link to defamatory material illegal? Should it be? In this case, it was a link, not the content itself, which was shared. If Facebook added an excerpt, I would think liability falls to Facebook. Also note that I'm mo

Let's say the NYT publishes an article about the president. You, believing it to be an accurate representation of facts, share the article. It turns out the NYT writer made it all up. Do you think it's reasonable to punish you for

Just wait until they decide what you can or can’t see with Safari, Chrome, or Firefox. This isn’t a slippery slope, that is exactly what is happening here: a company is telling you what you are allowed to read and see, and they have the pow

The whole article by PG seemed like a defense of himself, a justification for wealth inequality. Perhaps most billionaires did not come from other billionaires. But can we really act like tech billionaires didn't have enormous advantag

On the other hand, sometimes your Google search can help a doctor in their analysis. An informed patient will get better treatment than an uninformed one; you must be your own healthcare advocate. And for anything nontrivial, this is why se

Surprisingly negative reaction to this. From the OP: > As a computer expert, we want to be more efficient and do our jobs better. We know that command words may not be easily discoverable or mnemonic, so we try to list some common tasks

I think the focus on fair use is even better. It means that EVEN IF you can copyright the API, it doesn't matter because others can reimplement it. So not only can corps not stop that, but courts might rule later that the copyrights ar
