Yes, and the guardian actually published a (tiny) retraction to this effect. So tiny I can't find it, but yes the central, core, money-shot claim is actually patently not true. edit: I found this on the issue: http://www.zdn

A quick glance seems to indicate they break every rule of modern web design. It's almost too perfect. Like the spec was to to do the exact oposite of what you're supposed to....

Well it's Google's search data... this isn't public information.

Well you're just arguing semantics. Just because HTTP is a 1-to-1 connection doesn't mean web content is not "broadcast". It's there for anyone that wants to view it, so functionally it is exactly the same as tradit

1) it depends on the age of the consumer 2) it depends on the porn. Much freely available sits somewhere between aggressive and violent, and potrays women in a derogratory and demeaning way. That is not "normal", and potentially is damaging

you cannot broadcast what you want on radio or television, you cannot print what you like in newspapers or magazines - there are rules and regulations governing content. why should the internet be any different?

by retube 13y ago
why?

by retube 13y ago
Yes it is impossible to completely block the distribution of such content, and yes maybe this is a particularly weak solution. But that doesn't mean that this or simialr efforts should not be made: they will reduce the ease of availability

As a heavy user of Excel+VBA I would love to be able to switch to coding in Python. I detest VBA with a passion. Plus the DB stuff is nice. It's much better able to return results as a formula array vs the native MS facilities which populat

Fine. But why sound like such a dick? How about "We're really sorry but this website only works with...." ? or whatever. With that kind of attitude, I can absolutely promise you I am NOT going to copy-paste this url into chrome or FF. Am ju

Hmm. I wonder what this emberjs is? I'll just click the home page link and find out. Oh. That just gives me the discussion board, which i'm already on. A bit more looking, a bit more hovering, and.... there isn't one. Close tab.
