The point is to very roughly quantify that selection bias, no? Obviously, if Go neglects certain areas or doesn't fit well enough, people who consider those areas important don't use Go and are not represented in the survey.

It hasn't been studied on kids and very little on adults to even make any conclusions.

No need for adult trivia captchas, since this is not an actual issue to deal with. Adults are already responsible for children and have to guard them from all kinds of perceived and real danger.

Business friendliness is not an ideological choice. Maybe a careless choice or a calculated one. But I don't think anyone has strong beliefs in it. Hence, the OSI side is fighting with an agenda. FSF, on the other hand, is ideologicall

I was just browsing websites that were loading unusually slowly, so did the usual ping/mtr to investigate, which pointed to the router. From there and a bit of tcpdumping the cause turned out to be UDP traffic to Google from another pe

So, no reason then. That overhead is like microseconds and you can disable it if it bothers you (you have to configure web browsers for MITM anyway). I actually disable QUIC myself, because I've noticed it slows everything down too muc

What reason MITM solutions have to support more client protocols that terminate on a local network?

No, it's not like that. The decision to go through "Conversion Therapy" under pressure is like a manifestation of harm already done to a person, it's not necessarily harmful in itself. As I said in another comment, it&#x

Everyone has to hide who they are to some extent. This is just the world we live in, societies are awful to people. Again, the harassing, harming and attacking is done by other people, not by the "Conversion Therapy".
911.
by zzzcpan 8y ago
Well, in your explanation the shaming part still comes from other people, like parents, who pressure the person to go through with it. They are the ones harming the person, not the Conversion Therapy. It cannot harm anyone on its own at all

It's a non profit that lives of donations on its own platform.

Depends on the service. It's more convenient for subscribers to use a single place and a known brand. No need to establish trust and figure out another platform. As a result you get more subscribers, way more than the cut they take.

Towers are connected through fiber. Mobile companies in general don't compete with each other at all and just continuously raise prices until too many customers starts leaving or regulators and politicians start to notice.

I don't get your point. Atmega328p arduino boards start at $2 or so ($4 for uno) and are currently at "apt-get install arduino" level of convenience that arm isn't getting anytime soon. Plus the whole point of microcontr

There are no feedback loops in propaganda. Other people don't get to make a loud enough sound to influence anyone on any significant scale.

Terrorism is essentially propaganda and "the global far right" is mostly supported by state actors both domestic and foreign. Islamophobia is of course not the cause, although it could be one of the goals. It's the same way a

It's just an ideological way of making people buy in into setting high prices, not a thing that reflect reality.

Piracy related downvotes are political. But I think your comment makes some sense: fighting piracy is fighting against freedom, for censorship and authoritarinism, a world where you might not even have a freedom to write a book to begin wit

Yeah, making a living writing software in a creative sense was never even possible, since software was free to begin with. It was always an equivalent of being hired to write pr articles, make banners, logos, take wedding photos, etc.

The link you provide uses a different meaning for market concentration, not what the article talks about. You can think of it as market monopolization instead if you don't like the wording.
