lol no...the main issue here is being fooled by bots. you know your irl friends and you know they are not bots...devs will just need to get out more and actually meet / get to know the people they are working with...........omg....that

There certainly is...Zuck can censor whatever he wants but just because it's a private platform doesn't mean the gov can censor it, or pressure him to do so. You saw the "White House pressured Facebook" part...right?

this...every time i use the damn apple weather app i am reminded how much i miss dark sky and my contempt is rekindled. makes me wonder how often this sort of tragedy happens.

And here's a little extra for those that are about to walk away thinking a meaningful record was set: 1. "But before we get ahead of ourselves, it hasn’t quite been confirmed yet. These claims of record-breaking heat are based on

I'm sorry but as an AI model, I'm not allowed to do that either.

Did they edit the article or something? I don't think it sounds entitled at all. Sounds to me like the author is just innocently wondering if open sourcing it might help them compete and wants to see them succeed. And there is a mentio

Lol does that happen often? I can understand it with mace, but a taser?? What happens when a senior officer gets tased by some rookie? I imagine he would never hear the end of that.

How about if the headline ends with a question mark, or begins with a click bait phrase like "It could be" or "We may have just witnessed", or says something about what someone is "unable to confirm", and is in

If it's really so easy to make forgeries now, it seems like the street value would plummet. Even if that's not the case, instead of swapping the original and risking jail time, why not just sell the cheap, perfect forgery to whate

My commute is about 7 minutes and it's still too much. We need to drop everything we're doing and invent portal guns.

How could you possibly get into legal trouble for viewing the source code of a website? Are we talking about China or North Korea maybe??

I can remember when I was younger my mom getting pissed when the phone (landline) would ring and thinking jeez, chill out! Some years later I'm doing something trying to concentrate and I get like 20 dings in a row on some group text m

Regardless of what they think I'm still thankful for front-enders. CSS / UI-design/layout...people that enjoy that sorta thing are great because it means I don't have to do it. Maybe they feel the same way about backend

I'd like to see mankind drop everything it's doing and focus on making portal guns a reality. Once we have the ability to step from our home office into our work office (and back again as many times as we want throughout the day)

I'm in the same boat as you, but I think it's important to remember another factor besides conditioning. It's much easier to say "I would love to quit" when you have a job than it is to be happy not having a job whe

How do you arrive at that conclusion? That it implies all your "personal" driving info would be made public? Seems to me its more like car companies would not be able to "hide behind trade secrets to avoid scrutiny". Ext

Have you read the Three-Body Problem trilogy? There's some stuff in the third book (Death's End) that sounds a lot like your dream. Specifically the different dimensions of space. If your dream didn't come from that book, per

Needed a break from work and figured I'd take a shot at a random comment. Pardon the rant...nothing personal...here goes. So, I'm not saying that firing the guy in this particular case was a mistake, but how do you arrive at the b

I don't know if this is an English-only thing or not, but the emphasis on a particular word in a sentence can convey some extra info. Ex: He's not lying. 1. He's not lying. (Someone else is lying) 2. He's not lying.

It is science fiction right now, but who knows in say, 30 years. My point is, if it did become a reality, I assume you would be against it right? What would be your reason? Because a chimp can't be trained to do it? That seems kinda a

"There shouldn’t be an expectation of privacy in public spaces." Perhaps not to some degree, but facial recognition takes it up a notch. And ultimately what we should or shouldn't expect is up to us right? Suppose someone fou
