    Firing a person should not destroy their life. Something else is really wrong if this is the case.

    The problem is that real Nazis will not do anything of the above. What you describe is just the behavior of the plebs and not of the leaders.

    I think he/she should leave the gender there but add an additional field "identified as gender" or something like this. I mean it should still be possible for me to categorize peop…

    I don't think this would will be the case as it will only make people who know how to install an ad-blocker move to firefox. I think they target the users not having an ad-blocker …

    The code of conduct just applies to behavior inside the community. It has nothing to do with stuff happening outside of it. The community would not tolerate discriminating behavior…

    It's a good point but I think it does not apply to my example. Because in my example I don't even have to modify the movie. I can apply the filter while it's playing. And besides t…

    According to your logic you are obliged to watch the ads on TV. Because by watching a film you made an agreement that watching the film is only free because you watch the ads.

    It's more like some percentage of people change channels, mute or fetch something to drink when ads are running on TV. Just because you watched the film doesn't mean you are oblige…

    What you are saying does never apply when using content for personal use. When I buy a DVD I am allowed to watch it with a filter or watch only every second frame. This would never…

    The good thing about morale is that it doesn't have to be the same for different people. It's not an absolute value. You can live up to your high morale standards and watch ads (wh…

    A small detail: While destroying more life this process is _creating_ more life at the same time... Not that is has to matter.

    That's exactly the reason I wouldn't sign-up for something "free" when I was required to give away my credit card details.

    Nothing a company builds is free. And I think it's better to pay with money than with data. Not saying you're not paying with both here.

    When you talk about reading the code then you mean parsing? When you think you gain productivity by parsing the code in strings, variable assignments, function calls, numbers etc. …

    The difference here is that on a traffic light the colors are important and inherent to the traffic light's functionality. This is not true in source code. Syntax highlighting "hel…

    I turned off syntax highlighting several months ago and never wanted to turn it back on. Scanning the code is now as good as it was before. And understanding und structuring the co…
