Well, we are used to the kind you spoke of already. Soda, fastfood and car brands are mentioned in films and music videos. But if some Javascript adds a soda bottle to my friend’s picture, I can see that as a potential violation (if you use

I agree with you entirely. I want to make a few points though. First is that even when I am actively listening to someone speaking, my brain will make associations with the new information (coming from my auditory sensory registers), so I c

I also employ the dot scheme for different purposes. Example: johndoe.hn@gmail.com vs johndoe.school@gmail.com so I wouldn’t want anyone aliases without the dot.

I agree HIV is a whole different ball game, but I thought it was a good (common) analogy. But you are right.

Yes it is true. Influenza and HIV viruses’ mutate very quickly such that one year’s vaccine may not work next year, hence why health professionals advocate flu shot every year. Most vaccinations will last for life time though. CDC and WHO a

Yeah but I doubt most Windows users use Pidgin. What happened back then ICQ, MSN and AIM dominated at different time and geographically, even though they co-existed since the 90s. Now, not so much.

Google Talk was like the “cool” version of AIM to me when I was using it between 2010 and 2013. I could access Talk from my browser or from a desktop client (Pidgin, and I believe there used to be an official Talk desktop client). For some

Maybe not the most favorable opinion, but U.S defense budget is out of control. I take the classic F35 development as the goto example. There is no accountability. There is no oversights. Contractors don’t seem always fulfill contracts on t

Yes, it’s stealing afterall. Taking screenshots using one’s phone is still possible to steal the code, although the effort would be tedious for a large codebase. But for an active adversary, if that’s the only method, he/she would do i

Amazon’s ambition is getting a little, hmm, out of hand. Eventually Amazon has to split up its businesses into multiple subsidies like Alphabet and Google. It is dangerous for a single company to hold such high valuation forever. Although I

I agree. I think the convenience of locating in Manhattan makes sense. For CA, since everyone travels, it doesn't matter (though they do have an office in SF!) I wouldn't mind traveling to NJ if Google picks me up like Google does

They want the entire building badly for years now so it makes sense to overpay and grab the deal right now before another developer comes in with a more competitive offer, knowing Google would not move away! $2B for this is not expensive, c

Yes, many Chinese chefs and households still do use wooden chopping boards. I am not sure if the boards are as hard as stones, since there are many different kinds of stones. But thickness and the type of wooden do matter and will certainly

Yes, and I think what you are providing is very helpful, and that was my point to Twilio: the author should provide more information on how to get help as an individual (or for any startup founders). This is a serious matter, download a tem

Sure, I agree with you. But the title appears to advise what developers should do. It doesn't even address "how to verify the letter", and certainly doesn't seem to suggest seeking legal help. In the worst language, this

So how does one verify the letter? I propose a tl;dr version: get a lawyer. Do not deal with it yourself. It's cool to read about how a company (with a team of legals) can respond to the letter. "A Developer's Guide" is

I had been to some NY local meetup like this before. That didn't work out well. AFAIR, probably two or three devs would be there to help answering questions like "how do you do this in Django" sort of thing, since a lot of pe
