Yes, also Elon.

LOL, $99/month for a gimmick service worth $0.

I think you mean that the committee comprises humans.

That's simple, we only burn the bad books!

How does this apply to the parent post, but not the grandparent?

Very low quality article, does not give any reasons at all why TSMC believes this (and they have an ulterior motive). Just a naked assertion.

"In Chess, you win when you take the King, which in effect has infinite point value, and it is relatively uncommon to come to a draw." Great article, but this guy clearly does not …

And progressive DAs in certain cities have decided to legalize crime.

Extremely unhealthy binge-eating of unhealthy foods in the obese girls paired with bouts of bulimia that never worked. Mostly plant-based/vegan diets and yoga/other forms of exerci…

Another uncomfortable truth for overwhelmingly overweight Americans: fat-shaming seems to work. Anecdotally, the girls I know whose parents/family criticized them when they started…

Sure, they can. Should they? And should they be allowed to looking forward, or are they now an active threat to democracy? By the way, I say this speaking as a conservative who opp…

The pricing for this is ridiculous. Far easier to just unsubscribe + report to spam + set a filter if that doesn't work. This takes almost no time for me currently because I unsubs…

I think you're confusing YouTube's "free speech" with YouTube's ability to censor anything they want. I have no issue with Google uploading YouTube videos or blog posts spreading e…

This seems more complicated and significantly more expensive than hosting a static site from S3 and using a Cloudfront distribution to enforce SSL.

Does Google Drive not charge users based on data transfer? With S3 this would not be an issue, but either the uploader or the downloader (with "requester pays" buckets) would end u…

Yeah, relax guys, we only burn the bad books!

You're completely missing the point. I'm making an argument about how companies should behave, not how they are legally obligated to. Incidentally, YouTube, Twitter, etc. should be…

You presumably also would be in favor of domain brokers restricting speech (correct me if I'm wrong). Does every controversial political speaker also need to host his or her own IC…

You can have a fairly minimal degree of censorship limited to actual criminal speech. There's no reason why platforms can't adopt that as their standard.

This is a fairly cheap argument. Presumably the reasons why it's bad for the government to ban speech are also largely applicable to platforms that are almost universally used to d…

Real World Tech (David Kanter)

Good for Amazon for not caving to activist pressure. Google's past fecklessness in this domain has come to haunt it.

Not enough people make it into their 80s to have a large vulnerable population. Mystery solved.

I happened to start reading it a few weeks ago. The book is even better than the movie, and the movie is one of my favorite horror films of all time.
