I would argue that it isn't better than crediting the game to the studio. People can look into the game's credits to see who actually worked on it. However when everyone keeps going "Bob made this game", nobody bothers l

Very true. It really doesn't take much these days!

I don't think this is a good argument as is, because it effectively justifies the draconian laws. Basically if they got all of them to stop taking actions in real life, and exclusively generate content on people who don't exist...

We do need better layered solutions here for sure. In the same way that we can't "defeat drug abuse" by jailing everyone, there needs to be a multitude of solutions at every interval to help. While I think privacy advocates a

Only at the moment, YouTube was included as part of the content they're going to delete from accounts as per the VP announcement. People should use this as a warning to save content they want to keep from YouTube that's particular

Agree with this analysis, when docs are written well, it's quite nice to read them through. They're succinct yet thoughtful. Most docs aren't like that though, they are either trying to do far too much (being a marketing page

It's interesting that these threads have so many comments like these: useless anecdotes coupled with misleading questions.

It sounds like you've just gone from one addiction to the other without actually getting help for your addictions.

There's a misunderstanding here, you're asking about medical tests from the perspective of a doctor diagnosing their patient in the office. I am talking about doctors/researchers assessing the existence of ADHD through medica

This is objectively false. There are medical tests to prove its existence, there have also been numerous studies highlighting the differences in ADHD brains and those without it, one of them being far slower development of the pre-frontal c

Doctors avoid the "I can't concentrate" metric these days and care far more about your upbringing and the effects in your daily life beyond study/work. I also believe that those that abused drugs to advance in their care

Set is an understatement here, there are about ~200 types (as of now), and within a numerous amount of mutations per person. This is why one person could have been treated effectively with early enough detection, and others it just keeps sp

What's so interesting about this is that it wasn't radiation that had the biggest direct effect here (like most would assume), even the CDC and WHO recognizes this, it was the social after effects of having zero systems in place t

That's a great summary: economics of the internet. Until we start discussing that, we're just going round and round with micro-optimizations while the elephant in the room continues swinging around.

Only 1 mention of ads, and it's quickly brushed aside. Not as if using an adblocker immediately speeds up your web browsing or anything.

I share this view. Not to any hate on Palmer, but enthusiasts often have a very different product perspective and the products he's led are demonstrations of this. Again, not in a negative way, they just failed to capture public attent

Not much of a solution if it requires hoping something doesn't become popular in the future. That's more like a hot potato you've just passed on.

You never should have been able to type "something.zip" and go to a zip. That was chrome being unnecessarily "ambitious" in creating a shortcut when you should have always had to specify "file:///&quo

This solution only works if you believe no filename extensions will ever be created (or popularized) from here on out. So, instead of hoping for that, why not search for solutions that actually will stand the test of time and aren't as

When I read comments like this, I am reminded of how deeply ingrained nationalism is for Americans. Where even if one admits something is a problem, it's simply a temporary problem not worth paying any mind, hey look, China is doing so

There is, but you have to make the privacy tradeoff to verify yourself among the sea of noise.
