I just really don't understand the whole self-driving car craze. What is so attractive about it? Why do people want it so badly? Personally, I like driving, rarely even use cruise control. I would never fully trust these auto-pilot

No national mourning has been declared for "500-600 corpses" because we don't mourn criminals, thugs, people who reach for guns when confronted by police, people who resist arrest, etc. You act as if the police did a raid on

Your point is taken, I just take issue with the article perpetuating such a stereotype. I'm a developer, I have a degree in literature and write a ton. And the article says nothing about developers not writing good prose, just not li

"I think I understand better now why literate programming hasn’t gained much of an audience. I used to think that it was because developers hate writing prose. That’s part of it." Right, and that's why it's so difficul

You continue to misunderstand and misconstrue my points. I don't see this going anywhere as, ultimately, you're the mod, not me. I hope he continues to leave useless posts complaining about articles he doesn't personally like

Frankly, when you look at the thread, you should be putting him on notice, not me. I said the comment was ridiculous and I stand by that statement. So, where did I call him a name exactly? The guy wastes all of our time saying that he doe

Not hipsters so much as geeks. There's a big difference between a geek and a hipster.

Hey guys, the Wikipedia article didn't teach BanzaiTokyo anything new -- can we start making sure every article is selected just for him from now on? Thanks.

What a ridiculous comment. As if you automatically have total understanding of a concept if the term used for it is in your native language.

When you click the link to "Israeli Heroes" after reading the article, it should really turn your stomach. Shame on you, Apple.

The fact that tgb "truly believes" the first, and erroneous, clarification was more useful means nothing to me. The first comment was simply incorrect. The impetus was to say someone was wrong. This was corrected by someone else,

I'm on your side, but I think this is a bad example or poorly stated. Mothers feel all kinds of pressure (from many angles) to, for example, buy their kids the latest toys or coolest clothes as an expression of their love. Etc.

I was referring mainly to the people quoted in the article, but rest assured, if it changed your font to ComicSans or inverted the colors, countless people would still say their lives have been damaged beyond repair.

Wow, what a bunch of babies. I'm sorry, I just don't see how sending a "mic drop" email could ruin so many lives in just a few hours. It's not like it sent some NSFW gif or random insults or something. Accidentally

Have you seen the film Her ? The game he plays in his living room looked great. I think, just like watching a movie at home, it's fairly easy to get immersed and "lose yourself" if it's engaging. Not that I'm unint
