What you are discounting are the bad faith actors that use networks provided by YouTube, FB, Twitter etc to disseminate their message. I think a lot of us believe in marketplace of ideas where bad ideas are disproven and people update their

Although it makes me feel a bit petty to say this, I have to admit that I am feeling a lot of schadenfreude. The terror of extremely privileged people on being "assailed" by "low lifes" has a touch of dark humour to it I

Before we break up Google and Facebook how about we take a look at collusion and behind the back deals happening in these companies. This duopoly has been levying tax on huge chunk of transactions happening all across the world. How have th

I was thinking of using SQLite for creating game saves. Does anyone have experience with that? The more I think about it the more I wonder why we don't see SQLite in games more often.
