Firing a person should not destroy their life. Something else is really wrong if this is the case.

I walked to kindergarden at the age of 5. But that was in Switzeland.

The problem is that real Nazis will not do anything of the above. What you describe is just the behavior of the plebs and not of the leaders.

I think he/she should leave the gender there but add an additional field "identified as gender" or something like this. I mean it should still be possible for me to categorize people by their physical gender/sex. For exa

I don't think this would will be the case as it will only make people who know how to install an ad-blocker move to firefox. I think they target the users not having an ad-blocker installed.

The code of conduct just applies to behavior inside the community. It has nothing to do with stuff happening outside of it. The community would not tolerate discriminating behavior against members of the community or while doing work for th

It's a good point but I think it does not apply to my example. Because in my example I don't even have to modify the movie. I can apply the filter while it's playing. And besides that your examples require the presence of a c

According to your logic you are obliged to watch the ads on TV. Because by watching a film you made an agreement that watching the film is only free because you watch the ads.

It's more like some percentage of people change channels, mute or fetch something to drink when ads are running on TV. Just because you watched the film doesn't mean you are obliged to watch the ads.

What you are saying does never apply when using content for personal use. When I buy a DVD I am allowed to watch it with a filter or watch only every second frame. This would never violate your copyright.

The good thing about morale is that it doesn't have to be the same for different people. It's not an absolute value. You can live up to your high morale standards and watch ads (which sounds a bit odd). Other people think differen

A small detail: While destroying more life this process is _creating_ more life at the same time... Not that is has to matter.

That's exactly the reason I wouldn't sign-up for something "free" when I was required to give away my credit card details.

Nothing a company builds is free. And I think it's better to pay with money than with data. Not saying you're not paying with both here.

When you talk about reading the code then you mean parsing? When you think you gain productivity by parsing the code in strings, variable assignments, function calls, numbers etc. then syntax highlighting is good for you. But I don't t

The difference here is that on a traffic light the colors are important and inherent to the traffic light's functionality. This is not true in source code. Syntax highlighting "helps" you to spot strings, numbers, keyword arg

I turned off syntax highlighting several months ago and never wanted to turn it back on. Scanning the code is now as good as it was before. And understanding und structuring the code got better because I'm no longer distracted by unimp

I wasn't able to sleep in the past. Now I can because of two simple tricks (may not work for everyone): 1) I lie on the side and cover both ears, one with the cushion and one with the blanket. 2) I imagine a story I made up once and go

> You can't _claim_ guilt, you need proof, and to get proof you need due process. You don't need it when you are at war. Killing people is normal during a wa even without evidence.

Why should this be wrong? People can be who they want to be. If something is cool it's appreciated, if it's not, it's been shit on. That's life, deal with it. Not everyone is made of porcelain. Some are able to deal with

The employees most likely will recover but the company won't. So there is no bouncing back for the company, it's not getting a second chance if it's discovered that a mistake has been made. So in my opinion the comparison can

That's different. Sometimes you have to defend yourself and then it's justified to go to war. Going to war without being threatened is a crime (like it was done numerous times by the US governement and is done now in Syria. Only b

But all civilized countries have no death penalty for good reasons. No need to introduce them for companies.

We really need a bullshit register for this kind of people. They should not be able to get away unpunished for releasing something they already know is bullshit.
