That is not the Nazi Party though, is it?

Getting a sex change operation is a matter of choice, too.

Not much of a counterargument there.

I don't know what sort of consequences you're implying, but threatening someone over anything they say or think is certainly illegal.

It's illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of their political stance. Nothing you can say will ever change that.

Every social justice warrior is a bigot by definition. Thankfully, your kind is a very tiny percentage of the population.

Every employee affects the direction of the company in some amount, commensurate with their hierarchical level, security clearance, expertise, etc. In normal, day to day operations, the CEO tends to have a bigger share of influence than oth

They are actively working to disenfranchise Brendan Eich of his employment. They are doing this on the basis of his political stance. This is bigotry. They are bigots. What's worse, they're hypocritical bigots, because they'r

I just blacklisted you in my mind for unironically proposing that.

That would be a hell of an accomplishment, seeing as how the Nazi Party hasn't existed for more than half a century.

Discrimination on the basis of political stance is bigotry. There is no two ways about this.

It's certainly illegal to fire someone over that opinion, yes.

No, there isn't. A CEO is an employee, just one that tends to get paid above average.

Backdooring his employer's code would be directly related to his work, and illegal actions on his own time would make him unemployable if caught and convicted, because he'd go to prison. False equivalances, all.

They're certainly not treating Brendan Eich equally. Discrimination on the basis of political stance is bigotry, too. Their position is extremely hypocritical, and by defending it, you become complicit in their hypocrisy.

When you're attempting blackmail, you need to ensure that your hostage has value to your victims that is commensurate with your ransom demand. You have a shitty puzzle game that's getting "thousands of downloads" and you

The more you tighten your grip, Tayyip, the more tweets will slip through your filters.

How do you promote the domain? That's the real question. Twitter makes it quick, effortless and free to disseminate really interesting information. It's slower, more cumbersome, possibly more expensive with other methods, even wit

Technically, yes. Usability-wise, no. Most Turkish internet users are mobile-based, anyway.

It is nontrivial to switch millions of people over to a completely new platform and reestablish the literally billions of connections among them, nor is Twister's infrastructure ready to handle the influx. For now, Twitter over VPN&#x2

I saw a post listing the precursors to 2048, but can't track it down. Can someone with knowledge point me in the right direction? Thaks.

The biggest problem is that these games are categorized as free in app stores. This is false advertising. A new category (maybe called "freemium") needs to be set up for games like these, so we can avoid them wholesale.

> Trolls turn out to be extroverts -- but extroverts with "disagreeable" personality traits. I seriously doubt that extroverts waste their time trolling others online. They probably have much better things to do in real life.
