Yes, torture is a pretty cut and dry moral issue. That does not mean the people/groups you listed are "for torture" based on the small sample of reactions you listed. I would not describe the Obama administration as being &qu

The internet has been decimating traditional news journalism's profits – whether online or offline – for more than a decade now. What do you mean they weren't "pushing ad revenue into the information age?" What were the

What if the same evolutionary forces that made humans what we are affect machines? What if we make a machine that can create more of itself? Then overtime, via natural selection, won't the machine best suited to survival – i.e. the mos

This feature has been available for quite some time, so no. Plenty of people don't know about it though.

The balance between advantages to existing firms and advantages to startups is very much set by political and regulatory choices (like this). Given how much other legislation and regulation there already is affecting the balance, this is on

Which statistic are you interpreting this from? The Bureau of Labor Statistics' publications? In glancing at their unemployment rate estimates, it looks like the overall trend throughout 2012 and continuing into 2014 is negative, with

I had the same issue, and after isolating the problem to iOS clients like the author did, I had some success by having iMessage users remove and re-add me as a contact. Obviously not a good general solution, but it's better than having

I don't think Tom Perkins was thinking of the San Francisco protests in his letter, and if he was, then he is delusional as to the current state of class relations in the US. Protests in one city over problems that are not endemic to t

What road are you talking about that leads to Gizmodo and TMZ? The one I described (ranking by upvotes) is used by HN and Reddit. And if not the ranking, what part of HN, Reddit, etc. are you praising over NYT? Do you like just the listing,

I don't always want my news ranked in a list by upvotes and an algorithm, thank you very much. I find sites that rely on user input to rank stories are prone to spreading rumors and emotional, link-bait news. I trust the New York Times

I didn't realize at first that we had basically accomplished video-phones via Skype, Hangouts, and the internet. Seeing video chat was not very surprising for me, perhaps because it was such an obvious extension of the internet. It&#x2

The article states that most doctors and researchers acknowledge that ADHD is a legitimate disease (as yours seems to be), and that some people should take medication. But they are protesting the vast over-diagnosis of the condition, and th
