Because GoDaddy don't support SOPA any more? Or did I miss something during the last hour?

Not supporting IE 8 seems particularly short-sighted, given that IE 9 won't install on Windows XP.

My objection was only ever that the title was sexist. I didn't accuse antirez of being sexist, and I didn't see anyone else accuse antirez of being sexist. It's unfortunate that dextorious's comment led you to believe that people opposed to

Did you see the original title before the OP changed it? I thought dextorious's comment was intended to satirise both the people who complain about sexism in hacker culture, and the people who insist there's no sexism in hacker culture.

I prefer (=<<) and (<<) to make it look more like normal function application. I'm quite prepared to be in the minority on this. `Endo a` wraps `a -> a` so it can have a Monoid instance. Maybe I really want `endo :: [a -

When a copyright holder blocks a website from receiving revenue, that will often result in the website being taken down for business reasons (i.e. it will be down for the whole world, not just Americans. Does your site accept Paypal? Earn m

Record syntax is sucky. `>>=` and `>>` are idiomatic but rub me up the wrong way. I prefer `=<<` and `<<` (`<<` I even have to define myself). I wish `Monad` extended `Applicative`. I wish this sort o

$major_copyright_holder choosing not to make its content available outside $country is not the same as $major_copyright_holder choosing to take down $third_party_site. (I live in Britain.)

More likely a balkanised internet. I'll post a link to HN and you won't be able to access it because your country blocks it. The internet is already balkanised to some extent --- linguistically, and by e.g. the Chinese firewall. Also video

In Google's case, could it be considered abusing their monopoly?

Will they be pushing IE8 even to pirated installs of Windows XP? My impression is that this is where a lot of IE6 use stems from.

The HN source is part of the Arc language download, as an example application, so I hear.

Alcoholic =/= Workaholic. Your title is misleading.

There are plenty of places where it does matter, very much. e.g. support groups for abuse survivors, terminal disease patients, etc. And even when it does not matter very much, trolls deny others the right to be serious, derail discussions,

Won't work with wireless keyboards. Turn your PC around so that the fan is blowing at your fingers. This idea might actually make sense for laptops, when used on the go in draughty locations. But your real problem is that your office is too
