I think that unless it's actually illegal then it is up to the corporation. Corporations express opinions (morality) all the time (eg, Chick-fil-A/gay marriage, Abercrombie & Fitch/fat people). So if FB/Reddit/T

People like to think that you can say whatever you want online but even there you can't. Any search combination of: Facebook + teen/jail/sentence gives a pretty good idea. I'd only seen a couple on HN front page but it&#

On number 3, people might think the opposite too. "We can go here and not have to worry!" I wonder how that would factor into how much someone drinks "Since there are no drugs to worry about, the people must be trustworthy e

I know that when I started I couldn't even begin to search because I didn't know what I was trying to search for. Eventually you learn the keywords through some trial and error and experience. The other thing is knowing which sit

I thought the comments on the link I gave were bad but those are just as bad. I mean the 'omg hacker means evil and he deserved it!' stuff...at least the tinfoil hats make a bit of sense.

I don't know how it works but I imagine they (press) can use celebrity images for stories because they aren't classified as ads. Just a guess.

Along with that a way to shut the door quietly. Maybe newer ones are better but all the microwaves I've used sound like they are being slammed no matter how you shut the door.

Some of it might have been bad luck but I didn't really think any of it was. I knew that I was bad at interviewing. I just didn't realize how bad. My experience is probably more limited than I knew and the area I live in, while having jobs,

I have been unemployed for over a year. Today I just got my first offer, which made me go "Coincidence?! Probably." It was less than I wanted but really after a year I feel like I have no power to negotiate. Add to that my personality (avo

I am still amazed at how small the UK is (I think I read it was roughly the size of Florida). Even though I knew the general area I had to zoom farther than I thought to see it. On second look I think it's the type of map. It seems lower t

Just out of curiosity. Is there a time limit of how long they can sue for after it's restored? Could they wait for you to get a huge user base or revenue and then strike to get the most out of you or is there protection against that? I don

Even with all those hints in mind I had to look hard to see any of those differences. Only the 'O' was spelled out for Helvetica so even if I saw the difference I didn't know which font it was. I think I got about 6 right. I just can't tel

I wish I could tell everyone I wasn't wasting time I was researching. I am sure if I made games the last thing I'd want to do is play them in my spare time.

At first I thought that was a great idea and thought about how it might be done. Then I realized reading a word where every letter was a different color would be incredibly annoying (for a while). I imagined bright colors like this: http:/

I believe he meant that he first person has 1/6 (at least or most...idk) but assuming the next person goes there is one less chamber each time. 1/5, 1/4, etc. until you get to 1/1 at least. There would have to be some change between rounds

When I worked at a place that sold ammo as far as I can remember we didn't have to track anything special. Guns had all kinds of tracking and restrictions, magazine sizes had restriction (for at least 5 states) but ammo seemed to be just fi

That was maybe what confused me. For some reason I thought they were all still shots but then there was motion. Thanks, I wasn't even considering things like exposure time.

While I was watching I couldn't tell (on some parts) how it was different from just filming. I understand there are probably differences with quality but beyond that? Not saying it wasn't good just might not be my thing.
