    I know what you're saying, but think about things like jquery that every site uses. It's reasonable to source it remotely because everyone has it cached. Unless you had some conten…

    To be blunt, it kinda does. Before, the major actor that could issue genuine consequences for speech was the state. The word "Consequences" in the statement "freedom of speech does…

    I hear what you're saying here, but just taking what the article was saying, that shouldn't be much of an issue. Then one of the participants drank some contraband Scotch and becam…

    This is such a clean concept. If you have a tiny application, doing a tiny thing, do you need redis? Do you need sqlite? do you need to write some custom-text-file-ma-bob? nah. I f…

    That sounds silly, but that's when they killed the audio reader functionality so as to not compete with the audiobook industry right?
