For democracy to exist the "demo" part must persist. So no, I'm not.

> Democracy has been restored in plenty of countries previously ruled by authoritarians without recourse to the military. Would a military coup in China be the opposite of democracy? Then what do they have now? A different opposite of d

It may not be democratic, but it certainly not the opposite of democratic. Let's put it this way, let's say 60% of people vote to kill the other 40%. And then a third party enters and stops such madness. You know who is more democ

Stop repeating the same nonsense, an elected leader cannot crush his opposition and still be expected to be called a democracy.

Capitalism is the art of getting as much money out of you as possible without getting a class action lawsuit. We hope most Pioneers customers do the same as you but I bet they don't, they think a year is enough value for the product. P

That wording doesn't attract clicks, and it's all this generation is about. You think I'm joking but I'm sure future anthropologists will document how clickbaiting changed the English language. Heck, I have seen common p

They were trying to make people meet over shared professional interests. And anyway, for your assertion you would have to prove it produced elitism, not only "that you feel like it would".

by ivanca 10y ago
Yeah, god forbid those elitists start getting together and making even more people elitists as well.

Is there any slight evidence of this being true? As a counterexample Japan makes some of the most horrific gory horror movies around but they are one of the most peaceful societies in the world.

Where does it says this is an interpretation? How did you get the word "interpretation" in your comment? Where do they claim to be even remotely accurate? They don't, they never did, you are just looking for a reason to compl

I actually just tried in this page and it works perfectly even before any scrolling has happened by just using "position:absolute !important" in the "position:fixed" elements;

by ivanca 10y ago
A more sensible solution would be to convert all fixed elements into "position: absolute" ones. That is less prone to cause errors and avoids impeding navigation.

Actually pronouns is a more serious issue than what the profile pic feminist (Anita S.) actually complains about in real life, such as lack of men butts in videogames[0] (no, I'm not joking) [0] https://www.youtube.com/w

I know, people should use IPs instead of fancy domain names, DNS is just electricity wasting.

Also DNS, Apache, CloudFlare, Linux, images, Fail2Ban, Ethernet, the server's CPU/Memory/Motherboard, the phone network. All this for a static list, he could have just faxed us all this list instead like in the good old times

It's the year 2034, the FBI just killed 168 unarmed Americans. It claims that disclosing the reason why they were killed may scare off similar targets. A warrant to do the killings was avoided due to similar concerns.

I know what you are trying to say, but I have known engineers in their 70s who have a really hard time grasping new concepts, and your splitting weight analogy doesn't cover such things, you can't "divide a concept". Yea

I really want to see a 85 year old trying to sue for being "discriminated" for a stripper role. The amusing part would be the tumblr rage over "supporting" the stripper.

by ivanca 10y ago
Exactly, they preselect themselves out. But what happens when they don't? Someone has to preselect them out, correct?
56.
by ivanca 10y ago
No. Please no. It would be like screening 70 year old women for stripper roles. Yeah, maybe one of them is attractive to mass public, but still it doesn't make any sense, because the costs of screening all candidates is much higher tha

Cognitive decline starts a lot earlier than 70, reflexes start getting worse after 25, other cognitive capabilities decay later on in life When does age-related cognitive decline begins http://www.sciencedirect.com/science&#

Those kind of measures requested testing each candidate, which costs money and time.

by ivanca 10y ago
Wait... if we select a 25 y.o. engineer over a 85 y.o. engineer it means ageism? We must pretend that cognitive functions doesn't decline with age? (Which has been completely proven as any biologist can tell you)

They may learn to use those trinkets. Just imagine a button that says `Buy for $0.20 the X-Men Wolverine Mask filter` or just detecting user patterns: They detect an user mostly uses cat-faces filters, so they try to sell her cat-faces filt
