The same logic as: donating a kidney is less charitable if you have an extra. When will the meme of moral relativism die?

Not necessarily. For some people, the best day is one where they don't have to do any work whatsoever.

TechCrunch can certainly write whatever they want, but it becomes problematic when they think a single tweet is newsworthy. When news outlets start writing puff pieces about memes[0], you know that we've all collectively hit rock botto

They're effectively asking for a backdoor, plain and simple. I'd be highly surprised if Apple complied with this court order. Even if they removed said feature, the only way to decrypt the FS would be if and only if the owner had

IBM is largely a relic from a bygone era. You know, the era where people of color didn't exist and women were largely relegated to secretarial roles. I have it on good authority that you need to pay for snacks at IBM. When an executive

Your story is interesting. I can attest to the fact (anecdotally) when you consume cannabis orally, you gain this meta-insight into social situations. But, this new found social consciousness varies from person to person. Whereas you had a

Of course, but their skin tone is a few shades darker, so nobody talks or cares about them. People would rather argue in ivory towers about abstract problems that don't exist in the real world (sexism in video games, Internet feminism,

Isn't this what Dalvik does? (And by extension, ART) IIRC, a register-based virtual machine would alleviate the cache-miss behavior the GP talks about. (Because larger, more complex instructions = fewer hits to cache) It's been a

I could understand the power play angle if it was something more mundane, like a slap on the ass. But this whole band-aid jibe requires a certain amount of premeditated thought. It looks more like sexual deviance to me, rather than simple p

This is such a distinctly American(tm) problem that I can't help but chuckle. Why are we so puritanical about sex, gender, etc? I'm not absolving the guy doing this really creepy thing, but I sort of understand it. If you were rai

This was very hard for me to read. The "tweet storm" form of writing actually made my eyes hurt. I'm sure the author has some interesting ideas, but the format was so painfully irritating for me to read, that it detracted fro

I'm sure there are people in the past that wanted Windoze to become "open" (whatever that means, you don't specify in your argument). But Windoze is neither open nor gone. You're forgetting the third and much more r

pg never had to struggle too hard in his life. That's why he has skewed views on income inequality. He also has probably never read Piketty's book on income equality. There are empirical results that justify the narrative, people.

Sure. Groups like the Black Panthers and various left-aligned groups tend to resist "armed government forces". But, the counterexample to your narrative are the various militias that are slightly racist and espouse right-wing rhet

The tl;dr version of this is that "Applied Rationality" is a New Age cult, whose God is "Rationality" and whose Devil is human nature, rather than watered down Eastern mysticism. The creepy part is how they expect you to
