    Ah yes, Venezuela famously only has lawsuits that happened to them. Maybe look up Guaido, the 3% polling self and US declared president of Venezuela.

    They didn't even consider what you want or anyone other than the way to make profit of the app. Sometimes those goals align, many times not. The reason they show you random account…

    It's probably hard to prove with something from 1981 but no license or copyright doesn't mean the source is open for taking. It basically means you just haven't set a license and c…

    Throw out a made up percentage and proceed to start talking about rational markets as if they exist in the real world. I immediately know this analysis is going to be great. Older …

    Manufacturing consent has a different meaning. Politicians are always going to argue for their case but that is not the same as how the media and business monopolies in the US have…

    I think this is an artful position to hold in response to an article about imports from China to the EU.

    Isn't this covered by zoning? But it also just proves a point that you can't smart regulate the market to do everything. Sometimes communities just have to make decisions about wha…

    It's a very weird system to own anything underneath the land anyway. That's how you get the weird oil race areas where people will be drilling from the same source next to each oth…

    Because people on hn think consumers don't have better things to do than to look up vague tech stacks they don't understand for their iot devices. The trick is that consumers don't…

    Google and all the other algorithm related content platforms have had this power before AI and have been using it as well. I think AI is a new layer to the SEO war. I don't care fo…

    That bubble is the EU, which this law is about. I know a bunch of European countries have their own Ebay/Craigslist websites. Marketplace has never been even somewhat popular in my…

    I'm not sure what society you are referring to but contracts have to adhere to laws in the EU. This is also about software that is being updated. So the transaction is not complete…

    This is not about cyber security, this is about getting union activity data to the oligarchs. Russian IP's are a useful, probably unintentional, nugget that distracts people from w…
