I apologize if I did something wrong. It's a political post and I am just trying to make the point that we should hope and expect FB to be moral and do the right thing. They control so much of our information that they should make sure

FB and Google are huge companies and control majority of the information people get today. We should want them to be moral arbiters. Otherwise what else can we do? Most of us are so gullible.

Good. We can expect such behavior from vile conservative companies like Cambridge Analytics, funded by Mercer and the cause for Brexit. Why are they even allowed on FB? Such extreme groups should never be allowed.

No it's not different. I just said that not many presidents have targeted and killed their own citizens. Lincoln was probably one of them. Perhaps one could argue Obama was in a civil war with Americans of the Muslim faith / extre

Let's celebrate his amazing life. "The diagnosis of motor neurone disease came when Hawking was 21, in 1963. At the time, doctors gave him a life expectancy of two years.[253][254]" It must be quite taxing to have been given

It's good. Let's make sure the following conspiracy theories and extreme views are highlighted: Anything about men's rights, "rape culture", white "oppression", "72 genders", marxism, neoliberali

Those were massive fups. That is very different from listing the name of an American on a "kill list" and ordering a drone strike. Judge, jury and executioner. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_al-Awlaki

Obama is also I think one of very few presidents who explicitly targeted and killed American natural born citizen. Not accidentally, but actually targeted. Didn't even bother hiding it. But I agree with the original point, GOP did star

Why is it patronizing? In media and film, such requests are frequently made.

Exactly. This is very troubling : "But we are not going to recruit someone just because they are a woman." How else do you expect to get gender parity? It should be important to specifically source and hire women.

I use vim bindings in zsh, tmux (tmux modality plugin) and chrome (vimium). Pretty much 95 percent of my computer interactions right there. Why not just use vim? Why bother with other editors? I have changed jobs but carry my dot files with

You need to take introduction to statistics and understand what a distribution is and what kinds of insights we can get from them.

I have no idea why you linked that. The two comments you have posted make absolutely no sense. Non sequitors. Why did you use feudalism first, and then some weird alt right stuff second? What's going through your mind?

Of course. It's what separates us from the beasts and animals. Sapiens also talks about how humanism is completely made up. Who says a human deserves rights? Why should humans not own other humans? Because we built up a moral system on
