Opinion columns are not particularly strong support for any position. Other than some secondary references in the piece, I don't see anything factual there, just the writer's take on each side baiting the other.

To me it seems not so much insincere, but incoherent. This all sounds like a bunch of grasping at big picture straws, not announcing a new actual direction. I'd be very wary of what we hear from Mozilla leadership in the next few month

Because he'll use any leverage at all to support his own ego and agenda. Look at how the rest of the Republican party is scrambling to get their constituents to use 'absentee' ballots and even mail-in ones even though Fearle

I do this at home, my phone has a WiFi Calling option, and our entire block is a near-zero cell signal area. Airplane Mode + WiFi back on stops the battery loss from the phone hunting for a tower all day.

I meant to say something closer to 'should rise to the level of', I didn't mean to imply that it is a crime now. I didn't know that about the California law... but I understand that treatment is much more effective so I

Or a non-sympomantic kid gives it to another, who goes home and gives it to someone immunocompromised, like _me_. If I get this, I have a high chance of hospitalization and all the organ damage and ventilator consequences and etc that the

Or, since they know some staff are infected, maybe call an all-hands mandatory staff and board meeting to discuss how to handle new cases... make it an all day meeting, in the smallest conference room taht could hold the number of people. P

The problem is that 'necessary' to the people driving the Georgia decisions seems to be 'necessary to support my beliefs and my fiscal policy', not 'necessary for the best good of all'.

The flip side of that argument plays out, at its worst, in what gets charged as 'negligent homicide', or even 'voluntary manslaughter'. If you can take reasonable precautions that barely inconvenience you, but could easi

The article says multiple players on that very school's team tested positive after crowding in a gym for a fundraiser. And the school is opening anyway, even though it's confirmed that some staff are infected as well. I don'

You still trust enough to use them? Not being snarky, just given the way the company has blown up in holiday fireworks fashion, I'd be looking to balance transfer and go to anything else.

I've thought for a while about a progressive tax rate of N * log(asset value). Not income tax. So if N = 1, entities with $10,000 in assets pays 4% taxes. $1M pays 6%, $1B 9%. Then let N be the point of adjustment. I say entities bec

If the buyers that keep pushing the high end of the market higher, are the ones who leave, then the likely result is prices will fall until properties start moving again. Else how do the realtors get their commissions?

We just found a legislative way to break the Google search monopoly - more countries pass this sort of "pay to play" barrier, and Google says no, and then there's space for competitors.

Until enough people do that, Google still has 90%+ of the general search traffic. De facto monopoly.
