Just because someone is entering a seemingly frivolous lawsuit, is it fair that the HOAs sidewalks are inaccessible in general? I feel like it feels wrong because someone is profiting on it but society is more equitable as a result and I do

I believe this happened at UC Berkeley as well. For what it's worth, neither institution was 'forced' to remove the content. They were obligated to offer the content equally to all users and they chose to not do so because it

This doesn't contribute to conversation at all and seems to be implying something that's incorrect. Verbal agreement (e.g. even telling someone out loud "I agree to do this for you for $10") is a form of legal contract.

I found it on the whole endearing. Through the author's religion we saw his valuation of his friends and family as well as his whole life. I think it's certainly within reason that people can believe contradictory 'truths&#x2

I believe OP is referring to how Indian nations are governed and the laws that apply to them. They're outside the scope of US law (so they're alien). The word choice is ironic historically but it's not incorrect and it furthe

If your name is atypical, maybe they looked you up on social media and described you based on that? Or maybe you're a very generic looking individual.

Unless you've got a cold case, that seems like more potential suspects than a general person may reasonably have.

He was describing the candidates he sees this behavior from. I don't think it's discrimination to observe obvious information.

The cynic in me thinks this is purely a factor of smart kids in tech realizing Facebook is old news and provides little path for differentiation (or rapid promotion). They better than anyone know the exciting startups their friends and frie

I believe that the SF Bay losing many larger ocean mammals was related to World War 2 anti-submarine nets that closed off the bay from their migration for years. At least, that's what I recall from a marine mammal course a few years ba

I'm not convinced that's the proper reading of that law. FWIW, I'm not a lower just a person with an appreciation of legal questions. I was under the impression that the word 'imminent' implied you had to reasonably

Just look into the FIRE community. Many people are opting out of blatant consumerist attitudes because they realize compulsive frugality is a means of prioritizing what you want.

The article discusses violating TOS, not a billing issue. I don't think it's unreasonable to disable an account in that circumstance but I agree that deleting images/resources without allowing customers to defend themselves a

I'm not sure I understand why running on credit would be an issue for a startup? That said, I hope they asked the user before posting this info.

Why are routers so energy intensive? I would think that with fiber the cost would be that of producing light which seems to be low cost.

I think that's a nearsighted appraisal of people in these industries. Advertising is effective and so is the myth that money gives you actualization, to me it makes perfect sense that smart kids are going into a high paying industry wh

I want to believe... But Occam's razors makes me think it's birds, meteorological phenomena, and other things you can misconstrue for more in a high stress situation (or through IR cameras).

I really don't think that this is a fair appraisal of this. It's a really novel look into how our habits identify us and the creation of it, in itself, doesn't reflect any mal-intent. If you're really so disheartened by

So far as I can tell, that number is speaking directly to methane emitted from livestock which is not where the majority of livestock emissions come from. It’s more related to the fossil fuel usage and transportation costs.

Clinton has said that she won't be running for president. Would be interesting if someone picked her as a VP but honestly seems like a political third rail, at least in this cycle. I think running for president puts you in a different

Rationally, shouldn’t we feel safer if it’s patched twice? Seems like it’s irrational to prefer a state where it was patched once over one where it was patched twice. It would seem to indicate that they dedicated time and resources to resol

FWIW, there are far more businesses on social media than that. There’s an entire culture of chefs, makeup artists, and the like that advertises solely on twitter/instagram/etc. Social media is actually a really effective tool to r

I mean N = 12 is incredibly small to make such a sweeping statement about all of humanity but further it implicitly accepts that 1. free will is demonstrable via the experiment, 2. the reaction wasn’t preempted by free thought leading to th

I think the fact these attacks are happening regularly all over the world normalizes this already. The odds of you being the victim of a terror attack are low but honestly you don’t need a 15 minute course on tips. Make news distributors ru

Should we maintain websites displaying photographic evidence of the holocaust? The Vietnam war? Combat footage from Iraq/Afganistan?
