I know what the word "discount" means. When I say "what do you mean by 'I'm discounting'?", is "What do you mean when you say that I'm regarding a possibility as being unworthy of …

I'll ask again because you didn't actually answer my question. What do you mean by "discounted"?

What do you mean by discounting?

"pedo guy" was the thing that broke the camel's back for me. When you have millions of followers and billions of airtime on you, it's absolutely inexcusable to call a random guy a …

No, science was not hype. It's not like the fashion is over and now we're gonna go back to making worse decisions based on less data.

Another instance of google propping up puppet competitors.

You haven't answered the question. What is your definition?

What do you mean by educated? This is a person who is only able to entertain themselves by spending money. That doesn't sound educated to me. "Entertainment", in the sense that it'…

I'm a trader and we call it currency.

If the big boss happens to walk by for the 3 minutes you're taking a mental break and that is a problem, I would say the problem is the boss/culture, not the space. Think about it.…

Again, I totally understand the "it's distracting" argument, I have made the same argument myself. I was pointing a finger at the "I don't like it when people can see my screen" ar…

> Most laws require, to kick off an expensive process, someone to (a) pony up to start a lawsuit or (b) convince a public prosecutor to take on the case. Seems like a lot of red-ta…

Isn't this true for literally all regulations and laws on the planet? Which bit is specific to GDPR? If you're accused and you're unlucky enough that the regulators/police follow u…

I worked in advertising and I saw how scared AdSense publishers constantly were of getting banned by Google. I understand that Google has to defend their business, but some times t…

That's pretty clever.

So this seems to be a pattern. The link that I posted elsewhere in this thread and the occurrence there was precisely because of poor support. (Again, I'm not affiliated with that …
