It's a fine suggestion. If it breaks the site, then I'd call that a broken website and move on. Maybe next time someone points me there, they'll have fixed their critical issue for users who block tracking proxies. I'm o

I think this is part of why they make it so damn hard to find apps you already bought or downloaded before. AFAIK there's no way to search these, just a huge list to scroll through in no identifiable order, and anything that was remove

Why would web3 not have mobile sites like web[?] does? The source lives in decentralized version control. This is as web3 as it could get without tacking some kind of pointless blockchain grift onto it.

It's also a giant leap from morganucodon to homo sapiens, which is to say it's a vast amount of tiny leaps over eons.

Does "fraud" here mean "fraud" there? What is the Arabic word for fraud? Are there multiple words for it with nuanced meanings? I don't know the answers, but I can imagine such an arrangement where saying "I ca

Opinions will exist with or without your permission. There's no entitlement about it, and you would have no standing to decide it if there was. "Automatically not entitled to an opinion" is a dog whistle for fascism.

Yeah, it's worded like he's trying to write some expose about how dangerous otter might be, but really he's just exposing how terribly leaky his own journalistic tradecraft is. I guess I appreciate his unintentional candor? I

I try not to reply, but I probably owe you some clarification. My point was that disclaimers to the effect of "no offense but" are almost always useless, no matter how qualified[1]. Familiarity with the plight of another doesn&#x2

I think that's an important part of reading it. There are parts that are really difficult to understand, and that lack of understanding only gets you a glimpse of the maddening confusion the characters are experiencing. Only the Judge

This is what happens when you use the (wiki) encyclopedia to write your paper. It's a paraphrase of "First appearing in 2010, Rust was designed by Graydon Hoare at Mozilla Research". See me after class!
