Youtube has actually always had censorship. I found this from 2006: > What kind of videos can I upload? >> We accept any type of video content as long as it does not contain: >>> Pornography or obscene material >>&

A majority of respondents disagree with you. Advertising placed next to offensive content has a negative effect on brand perception. https://www.statista.com/statistics/698821/influence-offensi...

I think this is a little defeatist. You definitely won't get lucky if you aren't in the room-- hard work involves putting in the time in the room for that chance.

Who is the central arbiter of truth here? Twitter and facebook have made similar policies.

I don't think people really understand what happens to a website when it stops censorship/moderation. I suggest visiting 4chan.org, and thinking really hard about the experience. I personally tolerate its nastiness and am a fan of

It's fascinating how the coverage map is so drastically different from the typical US population map. In particular, they completely cover the east half of the US, but not the west.

Somehow, I don't feel like it's particularly meaningful to say that the point of _____ high level language is simplicity.

Without knowing the financials related to the product, it's really not possible to say that it's definitely worth it for, for example, 1 year of service.

It's nice to have a symmetric connection, but for most people outside of tech, upstream is only stressed when uploading photos. It's rarely advertised outside of fine print. I personally love symmetric connections, but in some wa

The reasoning is not circular, full stop. Just because the government both (1) deals in licenses and (2) can be sued in court does not make the situation logically inconsistent. You're confusing collusion/corruption for circular l

I think of it like this: open source software is typically written by volunteers. Volunteers with good systems skills but no UX skills can author open source software on their own. Oppositely, volunteers with no systems skills, only UX skil

Noted. I personally don't see a problem. The streets and sidewalk belong to the city; so the city is free to license them as it chooses.

Yes, absolutely. How is that even relevant? Are you implying that it's acceptable to violate the rule of law when the government makes a mistake? Do you shoot your mailman when they mis-deliver a letter?

Not quite true; mail delivered to your address is legally yours. A retailer who accidentally ships a crate rather than a unit of headphones has no legal right to mandate that you return received merchandise. edit: I should've been clea

what would it take for you to not destroy rental scooters? Would a docking system be preferable? I'm just curious, I personally ride a bike to get around, so I don't have a dog in the fight, so to speak.

For a cyclist sitting upright (CdA of .5) but with good tires and pavement (Crr of .0035), it takes about 120W to hold 15mph on flat terrain. I would agree that this is about the limit for most casual riders. Serious riders with more power

The argument against sharing bike lanes with robots is absurd to me. Of course, if bikes lanes become thoroughly congested with such robots, then it's a problem. But until then, all bike lane users-- cyclists, scooter riders and skater
