Very unlikely - I am sure you can be identified too. Either way it is ethically questionable. Another example of how evil mozilla has become.

This is not bad - Mozilla employees can then be put in prison. It's also one way to do away with mozilla.

It's not "kinda shitty" - it is an act of betrayal by mozilla. The company once known to care about user privacy, now u-turned and works against you. The sooner mozilla dies, the better. It has become evil - not as evil as go

Now mozilla totally lost it. I realized a few months ago that mozilla is run by google drones, so it no longer surprises me that mozilla kills itself. But the level of stupidity is amazing. I think the people who work there are deliberately

I don't like the name. For those who don't know german, Jaeger is "Jäger" is hunter/ranger. A somewhat neutral term in itself but there is also a slight, somewhat remote connection towards some part of the history (

Many twitch streamers prefer patreon. I have no idea; just stating that I noticed it when watching some twitch events.

Yeah. They have now become dependent on external decision makers. I wonder if we'll have to read notes such as "how patreon was once great" ... before a sell-out to some other company will happen. However had, that being said

Unfortunately I fear that Google has become too big for the whole world and will slurp up everything that can be a competition, just like they slurped up youtube too at one point in time. And we all know that money moves people, so there is

Pretty nice success story. Unfortunately money changes the way how companies work - and often not to the better.

Well said. More monopoly control by a company that has already gotten way too big for the world to (want to) swallow.

But we did not have AMP until recently. So OTHERS made a new decision for YOU - as the visitor.

Oh wow, I did not even notice this until you pointed it out. So the solution is SO bad that the "amp" tag even becomes part of the URL?! Now THAT is really weird ... well aside from me disliking AMP anyway, that ... hmmm. We can s

There are already certain laws that prohibit certain content. But this is not the issue in this case; neither are ISIS propaganda videos. This here is corporate and state-controlled censorship that has no legal basis at all whatsoever aimed

Very true. But it gets even worse when you look at lobbyists paid by corporations. In the long run, Google will have to be split up into smaller pieces. You can't control this evil - and greedy -corporation otherwise anymore.

Well, no surprise - ever since Google turned fully evil, it has been working against mankind. It's a wonderful opportunity to stop using Google-related products and feed more evilness into Google.

Are you really reasoning in favour of some obscure program rather than a simple "ln -s"? Dude, we have been using *nix since decades. There is nothing wrong with keeping things simple - no need for systemd whatsoever.

Precisely. "The Ruby community even has their own acronym for being nice to other developers: MINASWAN" No, that is not true. That was coined, if I remember correctly, by the pickaxe. Matz is nice, but how does this translate to a

You can use ruby without gems. I think you confuse gems with "pure" ruby as such. I have seen horribly code in gems and I think the whole gems idea is the wrong solution. But I am in a minority here. I also do not know why cpan is mentiond

Looks contrived, because I dont know many ruby users who would write fun1 for a method. Why? Because in ruby there are methods. You dont find many people doing "fun" for a method - the intent clearly was a "function". But where are they? ;)

One thing I dont understand is print word where does "word" come from? Anyway, this setup is in no way different to ruby's super super("foo") super("bar") I really fail to see the point here. What is different? I simply do not see what the

No it is not. You dodged the question again, by throwing a hardly related blog of someone else at it. How many people will use yield _AND_ self.send in the same method please?! That seems like an awfully complicated and contrived example. W

"the fact that they necessitate a special form (yield) and cannot be bound to a variable, and are not passed as standard function parameters just makes them inconsistent and gross." Which brings us to another point - when exactly do you act
