Yeah seriously. I'd love for a trained philosopher to analyze this scenario. Surely letting WhatsApp become crappy would be worth a nice 9- or 8-figure donation to charity. I would feel like a selfish jerk for rejecting that kind of mo

If the best argument you can fathom for being anti-union is "puritan morals" I highly recommend you spend 5 minutes researching the issue. This is a good rule of thumb for ANY time you are unable to come up with a reasonable argum

Do you have any evidence to suggest "that code safety and security" was NOT "prioritized over profit"? How would you falsify this? Are we to assume that every security breach indicates that profit was prioritized over se

The assumption in your emotional claim here is that the FCC is in the right. Many believe they are in the wrong. Remember net neutrality? That's an example of a case where many believe the FCC is in the wrong. This might be another one

They host a lot of forms. Forms that do fancy things. And engineers cost a lot of money in the Bay Area. Hope that helps.

What software skills are "not available locally" in Silicon Valley that need to be imported from places like India? No, these are available locally, just not at the rate Cisco wanted to pay. I've worked at many tech cos and t

Wasn't it like a year ago that famous YouTubers and such were getting their accounts stolen the exact same way and AT&T promised they would tighten up security measures?

Can you seriously imagine a world where behavior and speech are restricted to that which does not cause people to get angry and potentially violent? Can you both imagine that world and also want to live in that world?

The assumption you are making that seems so obviously wrong I am shocked anyone on Earth would make it: that concerned citizens with axes and tire irons will stay home as long as certain things aren't said. They're showing up anyw

There are always loud fringe groups who, unable to persuade the majority to their line of thinking, instead focus their efforts on coercing leaders of institutions to force their line of thinking onto the majority. Tattle-tales in school tu

This: "because you literally stop being able to see things for how they are truly" is flawed. You never see things for how they are truly. You see them through a filter of your sensory capabilities, your mental organization, and,

Thank you. I observe the same sentiment of unjustifiable certainty with so many deep issues among popular journalists and scientists. Simulation theory, the potential disaster(s) of AI, not to mention political topics. When even smart peopl

The funniest comedy routines I have ever seen by the most prominent comedians are almost always disparaging of a person, group, or idea held dear by many people. Simmer on that and ask yourself if mean-spiritedness really matters in this co

Bad, misleading stats. This is why you cannot take even legitimate news sources like BBC at face-value: "Even on a global level, there is no clear correlation between a country’s productivity and average working hours. With a 38.6-hour

What exactly do you think is the difference between organic brains and silicon-based ones that result in so-called "WANT or DESIRES" as you put it? Is there something special in the material itself that enables this, or merely a d
