Maybe this is a good place to ask since there's a lot of web devs here: What is SO effing hard about drawing within the screen on web?! I can't tell you the number of times I've seen this issue. Just the other day I saw reddi

Isn’t that just naked elitism? If you reject anything the major papers don’t publish how are you any different then a 15th century peasant following the clergy? Let’s be real, you don’t understand any of this either. You’re simply choosing

My argument is the net harm of coating everything in carcinogens and endocrine disruptors outweighs the fringe benefit. Flame retardants don’t eliminate fire, they give you an extremely small chance of preventing one in very specific scenar

They’re not good though. Hold an open flame or shorting electrical wire to a coated surface and it will burn just the same. Flame retardants only really give you a slight edge vs a burning cigarette on a couch. We coated our couches, clothe

Sure, but you can’t control the dose on an entire population. Let’s say only 1% of people get brain cancer because of their habits/lifestyle. That’s still unacceptable, despite 99% not getting a dose that’s lethal. An example of this t

I disagree. Let’s assume OP is talented, his talent can best be used for google’s competitors. Meanwhile, Google is rotten at the executive layer. No amount of good people working for them will fix things.
