Same reason if you dont do "free shipping" on ebay you get shafted. The market is conditioned to look for the free shipping label. You may be able to see through the sham, I can assure you, many others do not.

Non competes, price parity rules, and simply market exposure. You cant start a book selling website without selling on amazon. The market share is too large to function without participating in the monopolistic market platforms.

You realise free shipping on ebay and amazon is.. anything but free right?

You're taking an incredibly insensitive and naive stance on that. Sure you dont want to reconsider that just maybe proportionality is one of the first things lost during depressionary states of mind? You also lack the personal understa

The simpler theory is simultaneous invention. Little hard to prove either though.

I dunno, it sounds more like they just got caught with their pants down not finishing a migration to some new shiny. Also looks like they do blue green but dont confirm the replacements are live before considering the greens new blue.

This is what end to end and integration testing is for. You would set up an integration test to trigger the state that results in this alert.

Im not restricting the definition to that at all. Input validation, and any abstraction that smells like a framework or library make great code folds for abstraction. The question is all about cost. Does a single layer abstraction, at the b

Are we talking about that kind of general function labelling abstraction? I was under the impression this was about generalizing the abstraction to something reusable. I.e. calculate_vat will always be used by the same thing and there will

Facebook advertising essentially stole 2016. You csn try and pull apart the argument on a technicality or you can read it with honest intent and go from there.

That's what good culture fit looks like.

Right, but those are private spaces. Social media is what i would consider a public space. Your analogy would be analogous to police locking up lawful protestors.

Right, and as we have seen there is no way for sites like medium or facebook to operate without falling down to censorship of expression. Maybe they shouldnt be allowed to operate? Maybe this is why we cant have nice things. Maybe, we need

I agree with that stance. And this is where i think the laws might need changing to protect those who are merely providing a private space but do still have to deal with reality. I think potentially we need a third classification to indemni

No it doesnt create an obligation. The obligation is coming from acting as a platform, a nuetral ground where people can share information. The second you step in and curate or moderate you cross the line into being a publisher. There is mo

Thanks for the background, i think its invaluable. I dont think its obvious. Reverting back to the Moderators dilemma would put the onus of liability back on police and the law where these things csn be dealt with properly and fairly (so fa

While this is about free speech, its more specifically about whether you can class social media as a platform or a publisher. Publishers are liable. Platforms are not. I simply want social media to get off the fence. Because right now they

Freedom of expression is a fundamental human right. That amendment did not envision state level sized companies taking control of public discourse entirely. Im weary of claiming the constitution needs a fix but at the same time it does have

Yes. If you create an open space, you are not allowed to moderate free speech. You are allowed to moderare harmful illegal content, you are allowed to moderate spam, and other service breaking content. But kicking someone off because you do

Id say the stance on platforms is stifiling free speech. Private companies should not be able to moderate speech and claim to be a platform. You're either a publisher or your not. If you're a public platform, your users should be

Do you mean truly neoliberal or truly liberal? Not that it matters much. Blaming the state for something a bunch of bankers lobbied for is a bit rich. You want to fix things in america? Take money out of politics. Get rid of the myopic two
