Why would this necessarily mean they're getting rid of all legal immunity? I think we have plenty of examples outside of the digital world where legal immunity is maintained. The digital world currently has an excessively powerful vers

I don't think this is the same as a subsidy. It's about immunity from legal consequence. If a website can curate what is said so that it is visibly filled with defamatory material about a specific target, the organization curating

The simple answer? Because humans are actually intelligent. Find me someone in a job who has the exact same day at work every day with no exceptions and I'll show you a job you can automate. Exceptions are what define things that machi

Why not limit it to a single render queued with the latest information? I see this done via debouncing for render operations that happen on repeated events, for instance typing (send query to server, then show matching results in a render o

I don't understand the hostility towards it. These types of complaints like "oh if you misuse this tool that you didn't bother learning about, it does things you probably didn't expect" are basically completely usel

Anecdotal as it is, I started my career working as a sysadmin while studying CS. When I was younger I was quite interested in security (e.g. I followed defcon and CVE lists and read a lot of manuals and source code). I built server software

That's not victim blaming. And victim blaming is not always unwarranted, but you're presenting it as if it's always bad.

The entire point of clickbait sensationalist journalism is to get people fighting about non-issues. A guy who landed a probe on a fucking comet was forced to apologize in tears because he wore a shirt that these same people disliked. Now e

To what extent are you "entitled" to "investigate" into the personal lives of entrepreneurs and people building real value. If your goal is not to intimidate, attack, or slander, what purpose does it serve and accomplish

There's nothing in this article alleging that. There is someone in the comments here who has been vehemently anti-Uber on other social media who makes the claim, though. Let's get facts before we throw around slanderous accusation

It's not gendered. A reporter discussed supposed sexism and misogyny at a company. The man is frustrated because it's probably untrue, but we don't have a clear picture because the press has been sensationalizing anything ant

Even the author of this article recognizes, and confirms, that it was a hypothetical. It's completely defensible. Would you rather people go to jail for painting hypotheticals of crimes? Perhaps we should send everyone who's ever

This isn't a major story. It's an out-of-context clickbait dressed recount of a hypothetical story painted by a frustrated man at a private dinner. If there was a criminal suit filed along side the allegations made, perhaps you&#x

Why is this here? This is a non story. All I see in this article is that someone was ranting in a conversation that was entirely assumed to be off the record (they go to great lengths to justify talking about it, as if private dinners requi

I like the free/paid model, but what you have doesn't strike me as "shareware", but rather "adware". How well does a completely free (no IAP, no ads) trial with a paid full version do in reality? That's mo
