Fair enough, but there may be a small middle ground between "guaranteeing a return" and "never made a dime in profit and in fact is burning through millions or billions of dollars annually with no expectation to stop…
Why would a marketing and analytics company shut down a service that gives them full text transcripts of all of your phone calls? They may as well stop parsing your email for information about the purchases you make.

It's definitely like that on the internet; a lot of people on both sides of the US political spectrum seem to think there are two problems: 1 - Their chosen political party is not pushing far left/right enough 2 - The…

We could have a small handful of new great games from valve and an unknown number of crappy ones, or we could have steam. Steam provides more value to me on an order of magnitude that makes the article laughable. Steam…
It's mildly interesting that ethics are flexible depending on the target, but from a technical standpoint this project is not interesting. The code just builds a proxy list, generates a random number, opens a page, and…
I work in QA and don't like the reduced focus on quality (selfishly, because I've got the skillset to get paid by assuring quality). The article shows a graph that indicates that, over the long term, teams that attack…
So? There's more than one party negotiating that rate of pay. Think it's unfair for one person to negotiate against a company? Maybe, but that's where unions become useful. There's ill will against them, and they're not…

The article talks about how chat used to be a protocol, so you could talk between chat clients. As though you could log into discord and start a conversation with someone who was only using facebook messenger, or…

You're just using different words to describe socialism, which I frankly don't think needs any further arguments against it besides pointing at it's attempted implementations.
Slightly off topic but I deeply wish I was half the man my library suggested. Then again I've got no excuse not to be.
An important thing to note is that whether facebook has employees doing this or not, there's no shortage of services for hire that will do this for anyone. Literally any social media site that's popular is guaranteed to…

That's why we have the house of representatives.
Not surprised in the slightest. Political candidates already do this to minimize their weak points and capitalize on their opponents'. Countries already do this to save face when they're doing something that purchases…
