An accurate assessment, though I'm not sure if what I'm to take away from this is if there's some sort of 'ranking' system behind who gets to get away with what when it comes to 1) disagreeable speech 2) who is all

The solution to Twitter's bias, is the DOJ should sue them and make them enforce their terms of service for all parties equally (rather than allowing one side to freely issue death threats, racism, hate speech, etc. without having acc

Honest question: Google working on project Dragonfly, a service that-according to the article: 'would blacklist phrases like “human rights,” “student protest,” and “Nobel Prize.”' People are (rightly) bothered by this. Facebook a

Speaking of which, time for a new gaming rig... I had the same thought coming into this thread-what a great time to be in the market for a new machine. I welcome this competition, I want AMD to get better in the CPU game, but will gladly

That's the point. You're not mean to. It's a meme devoid of any substance with delivered via dog whistle for your side. If the statement reads as confusing to you, because it lacks any meaningful pointers to identify who it

Question: what if any criticisms of the modern Democratic party would you hear and think are warranted and deserved, would you be willing to articulate those criticisms or are they spotless blameless and perfect as a party? This is my probl

I love seeing statements like this because it always stops short of identifying who's who when making such barbarically binary assessments, and I often wonder why that is.

Perhaps I should clarify myself then: there is a definition, but unfortunately that definition is sans-actions of the parties held to the legal standard compared to allowed actions enumerated by parties to whom the express, actionable autho

Interesting take on the matter. Certainly access to firearms is a discussion worth having in society, but gun control isn't the subject of the proposed bill-nor is it the subject of this thread.

by iamdave 8y ago
I'm mildly incredulous on the actual scope of the bill compared to what's being reported (it's a learned behavior), does anyone have the name of the bill or the full text that I may go read for myself? Mostly because as as a

That's a really good question, the closest thing to this I think is the 'delta' feature on /r/changemyview. How do you see something like that operating in the reddit ecosystem?

But there are also a fair number of subreddits that are the primary gathering place for that community, and thus the best place to go for advice on that topic. With absolutely no way to vet, verify or validate anyone who proclaims to be t

I find it much easier to deal with someone who has no relevant experience but cares vs someone who had 10 years experience but doesn't care Why? This is a legitimate, but deeply opinionated "why". You employing me and me wo

Well I did say "probably", as in there's a chance it doesn't happen. Even if it's very, very slim. Speaking in absolutes isn't really my style.

I fully expect this to be consistently enforced, with outcomes applied evenly.

This is immediately where my mind went, the spotify integration is without a doubt the best thing (IMO) about Shazam. Find a song, in two screen taps I can add it to a playlist and come back to it when I'm queuing up tunes for the driv

Taken as presented , on the terms the writer gives us, I'm curious if this is a de facto 'movement', or if it is a natural (and IMO welcomed) evolution of the workplace?
