No, Firefox doesn’t need to support the use case of a court system. That’s not what GP is saying. All we’re establishing here is that PDF is a useful format, and Firefox is supporting it. Also, cryptographic signatures do happen to be a fea

I think you missed the point of distributing. I’m never going to let you email me your serviceworkers because I can’t forward this document to anyone without relying on you hosting a server / not changing the content.

Who/What has been exploited here? As others mentioned, you could install debs just fine.

I wouldn't say GCC has an edge on "codebase quality / ease of contribution". Doesn't RMS actively pushes against such metrics? https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc/2014-01/msg00247.html

Untrue, you could literally replace `__import__` in python and achieve the same thing: https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/functions.html#__import_...

Both Lyft and Uber are public companies. If you know this is a bubble for sure, there are plenty of opportunities for you to cash in on that. In fact, if you have solid research that proves it's a bubble, plenty of people will pay you

Is forcing wheelchair users to use subway human decency to you? We're talking about a situation where it's cheaper to let them use taxi service, and it's a better experience. My uncle lives in a wheelchair by the way. The hor

That’s an incredibly naive way of viewing things. Not everyone can afford losing their job. Let’s say job loss increases your chance of dying by 5% — not an exaggeration in some communities — 20 jobs lost is exactly the same as one death. T

I edited my original comment to now say "The idea that there are fundamental differences between human lives and corporate assets is flawed." Thank you for your logic lesson but I fail to see how this changes the discussion.

>"They said they saw a difference." Which would be the point, that there are no fundamental differences between corporate assets and human lives.

So you suggestion is to let any company that doesn't have the budget to have a proper cybersecurity team just die? I'll guarantee you that most of the small businesses that you encounter each day do not have such a thing setup.

None of the parents of your comment mentioned Windows. Perhaps you have the wrong thread?

Having antibody doesn't mean you can't spread the virus. For example, antibody tests are often used to diagnose HIV, but testing positive for HIV antibody (i.e. you are infected) doesn't mean that life will be normal.

Nobody said you shouldn’t be prepared. The system will be overwhelmed (and probably already is from the flu this year). We’re just saying not 100% of people are going to be infected. Even your business insider article is not saying that. St

It might be written ambiguously, but one should not interpret it to mean that 100% of people in the U.S. will be infected. Especially when the "80%" is followed by: > 80% of the population may experience mild symptoms, such a
