I find it interesting that people now consider Snowden the authority and source for all these things.

I have paper copies going back to the mid 80s.

That you see this question quite a lot indicates a confusion among visitors and users.

Is religion blocked here? God forbid we discuss that.

I see that. I guess I should send all my political friends to HN to post more such articles and comments cause where else but a place called "Hacker News" would one do that? I mean, I know I came here for just such topics.

Why is this on HN? How does it relate?

The new standards and API support are the same that would have been added to IE12. It doesn't matter that Edge came along.

by justwannasing 11y ago
To be clear: Microsoft did NOT build Edge from the ground up. Edge is IE without legacy code; that is all.

HTML5test is OK but caniuse.com shows more but people will complain about every browser test site since I started doing web dev 11 years ago. Here's the thing. Edge is IE without the legacy baggage and that's all it is. No differe

Now you're saying that is the norm. You're basing your statements on the internet scream, HN and Reddit and not reality. You're basing your statements on one-off happenings as it happens everywhere. These are things no engine

I'll bet you cash on my person that there were more people doing bad things to innocent people during these events.

So no different than any other company and a big fuss about 5% usage.

What you are trying to do is blame the actions of the bad guys on the police and making the bad guys blameless and without fault. You are saying that, if it weren't for the police, there would be no killings and shootings.

by justwannasing 11y ago
Of the thousand killed by cop, how many were holding a gun to the head of someone, or came out shooting before that happened?

Gonna give you guys a few quick blurbs. First, a chief of police was interviewed on CBS News a while back. He said there are thousands upon thousands of police interactions with citizens every day but all anyone ever hears about is the one

We don't use a "web language" unless you include our use of javascript. We make custom sites using C cause we can and it does everything any other language does. We just might switch to Go cause it already contains the librar

I find that those who start out with PHP cause they have to are working for companies who presume you need PHP and a database for anything related to the web but could never explain to you a technical reason for it.

Seasons change, and so did I. You need not wonder why. Things just fell that way. I had absolutely no interest whatsoever in programming for the web or the web at all. Then I was involved in an event that had no money and needed a web site.

Well, now you know one who started out writing machine code. And I'll tell you, don't learn PHP and Rails is a joke and doesn't scale well. But any noob switching to Haskell to do a simple web app is equally insane.

by justwannasing 11y ago
I worked in embedded programming, systems programming and, now, web dev. No. The "quality of people" is not generally the same or, more specifically, you're less likely to find PHP coders among system developers.

Actually, no, as I will repeat, his link has nothing to do with what we're talking about. I'm not new here. Been coming here since forever. Just have to get a new account every time I get fed up with near-Reddit like posts and typ

Funny. I just finished re-watching "Julie and Julia" before I sat here and saw this.

Interesting. I'm talking about when the "don't talk about salary" rule was passed. His reply is a link to an article about when the Labor Relations board was established and I got downvoted?

by justwannasing 11y ago
Yes it has been but that has nothing to do with what we're talking about.

At a glance, it looks like that changed just in April, 2014.

In all my decades of working, I always thought my employer would fire me if he knew I was discussing my pay with others. I know I was told that could happen more than once in my early years so I don't know why Google would be any diffe

Haven't a clue what you mean. I run several mail servers and have no issues whatsoever with GMail. And I run through all the spam filtering, too, and only recall one that was inadvertently marked as spam but, iirc, the mailer was the p

Having worked from home for 11 years, it's no advantage. As much as possible, I try to divide the time between home office and somewhere else quiet cause, eventually, something needs to be done at home and ruins the rest of the day. Th

I would not expect less of any company and any company that didn't do so will die.

And the most expensive ads are Super Bowl ads as the TV networks aggressively force the hands ... So, iow, business as usual.
