This doesn't do a good job of supporting its thesis. The new syntax does in fact allow most devs who understand "traditional" class based inheritance to use JS the way they expect. The fact that it's implemented in JS is

Yeah I had this thought too. Also, it seems like the proportion you lose would be less important than what's left, which they don't say they factored in.

Do they still even know how to entertain themselves IRL? Can we get Calvin and Hobbes in front of these kids?

Their bagels are also pathetic and embarrassing.

When I was a kid, the record we cared about was flight time, not distance. We'd build planes that would gently circle and throw them straight up in the air. Distance seems to have more to do with the arm, to me.

We don't need an alternative to FB at all. Social Networking isn't a first principle of society.

> “We proactively suspended our self-driving operations, including in California, immediately following the Tempe incident,” They mean "reactively", not "proactively". Pathetic.

Social Media is so obviously bad for you/society and good only for platform owners and advertisers. Most obvious thing in the world. To me, it's not at all obvious that crack addiction is, socially, any different.

Yeah. It's really obviously terrible. I don't understand the social media fad at all. (I'm 31 and used Facebook at college until they rolled out the news feed which was clearly evil)

> At the time, the practice was not only widely reported, but praised by major news outlets as evidence of the innovative and forward-thinking nature of the campaign. I keep seeing this, but never linked to an article. Is it even true?

Not mentioned is the height issue. My car is pretty low to the ground. A pickup or large SUV with even 75th percentile brightness, "dipped" is still directly into my eyes. So there's the brightness wars, and also an arms race

Remember that handful of friends who weren't on FB and so you hassled us to join for a while and then kind of lost touch? Many of us still have the same phone numbers.

Facebook is actually bad for you, and a bad actor in society. If we can't see that because we're addicted to it, maybe it's worth turning a blind eye to just a little more bullshit; whatever it takes to get us out of social n

These games don't make you happy, they addict you to short term dopamine dumps. The games are engineered to reward spending money. After quitting WoW, I realized it was a waste of time. During my addiction, I would have used this argum

I agree. But you should take that first step, and then start lobbying your friends to stop posting pictures of you. Personally, I also excuse myself at gatherings when the cameras come out, because I know it's all going straight to F

Words mean things. Don't assume that because someone nitpicks a technically incorrect use of a word/term that they are shooting down the entire argument. In fact, we're often trying to help; because we do agree with you; bu

It's not a secret that FB's business is profiting off your personal data. You could choose to stop using it.

You're downvoted because you're technically not correct. The case is more like the bank manager allowing the robber into the vault, with full knowledge that the robber wants to and could easily make off with all the valuables, the

Or you can pay them and not violate their terms. Outrage over GitHub admin actions is loud, but for the 99.999% of cases everything is fine.

Forks are clones that live on GitHub, with some access control. PRs are native to GitHub, but I can send you an email Requesting that you Pull from my remote. The Linux kernel team still emails patches I think. Issues are a GitHub thing.

In the alternative case, a company who terminates an engineer can't prevent them from accessing the code if they've forked it. This is a"problem" with git, which GitHub has tried to solve for its paying customers. Whethe

Apples to oranges. Amazon is getting its own special deals.

Amazon isn't going to the state with the most favorable existing taxes. It's staging a competition to get its own special tax breaks. I can't do that, and I don't want to move to Alaska.
