Nice writeup! I see that the app is available only in English. In my experience with indie apps (admittedly not recent), localisation in at least Spanish and Portuguese can help drive a lot of sales. It can also be easier to rank higher wit

So you're saying the moment YouTube begins to flag content as potentially manipulated, it could become a problem? And do none of the points in your previous comment matter at all?
306.
by kranner 5y ago
All your points apply to YouTube as well, and YouTube has more than 10x the users it has in India than Twitter does. But then why is YouTube not being targeted by the Government? One salient difference I see is that Twitter is protecting it

by kranner 5y ago
Twitter is neither a news website nor a search engine. The only sinister thing here is that, as the article mentions, the Government wants Twitter to reveal the IP addresses of specific users and Twitter is refusing to do so. Also Twitter i

I've seen plenty of brawls involving Sikh men wearing turbans. The turbans invariably come off even without direct impact. Also there are non-Kesdhari Sikhs (those who've never kept long hair) and those who've had their hair

Works great on Safari on iOS! But it seems to replace the actual image of the moving object with a red mask/silhouette. Is there an option to retain the original frames, even if the moving object is blurred?

I did not ask for a formal proof, but a stronger proof than you not having heard of such a thing happening. It is just about plausible to me that a dog can refuse to eat and starve; dogs do get very depressed. Anyway, by this method of deny

In my view if your entire argument is the restatement of an assumption, you'd better offer a stronger proof than not knowing of any counter examples.

by kranner 6y ago
This really reads like you are assuming that x == [no dog will choose to starve to death in the presence of food] is true and then the rest of the argument simply follows from x. Is there any evidence for x?

Of course you won't see ads if you block them. Duolingo still shows ads to users without ad-blocking firewalls or ad-blockers on their phones. You may even be violating Duolingo's terms of use by blocking ads.
