Why does the writer present Superdad's problem as unavoidably exposing their child to violence by having them at work and not the fact that they have their child at work? Why do they make solemn vows about not creating…
That type of dev? One who uses fully public and well documented APIs to fetch extremely common libraries from a fast CDN? The horror! ajax.googleapis.com isn't comparable to this now-defunct undocumented private API at…
All the examples highlight how well a super-minimalist site works when you have very little content. What about restaurants with more than just a half dozen menu items though?
If your site depends on turning your readers into commodities, it is not in fact a "pro-consumer site".
Yeah, I even wrote my own MVC framework for a small project and I still don't know what MVC is "supposed" to mean because every single implementation example I see is completely different and at odds.
The obsession with 3d printing vs more practical methods has everything to do with privileged white nerds and their obsession with the "information economy" over actual knowledge and skills (and physical effort, which…
If you'd actually spent a few weeks using it, you'd know. Windows 8 is a solid improvement on 7 that requires virtually no change in usage patterns. 99% of the time you're on the same old desktop and the other 1% you…
Like virtually all technology fetishists, he completely ignores the realities of class dynamics and global neoliberal hegemony to pretend that any theoretical singularity will benefit everyone and not just those at the…
The US military has spent a decade murdering over a million civilians in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, and more and taken to labeling every male over the age of 16 as a "militant" in order to try and…
There are hundreds of far more terrible things happening every day that do not make the slightest dent in the public consciousness. It seems incredibly premature (at best, woefully naive would be more accurate in my…
Alienation is the word being sought after here, not distraction. Alienation is the defining characteristic and goal of late capitalism, because alienation drives consumption. Everything about the suburban commuter…
If you're using Chrome 22 (stable) on Win8, note that you need to switch to the beta or dev channels as the Win8 version of Chrome doesn't have web audio support until 23.0.1270.0
I've discovered a critical flaw in this emulator. No Oregon Trail.
Technology ripe for abuse in the air over an area already subject to one of the most brutal, reactionary gangs of thugs ever to be handed the reins of power in the US, Oakland PD. Yaaay
Whitewashing and cheerleading a legacy of genocide, rape, enslavement, and the theft of land and resources is "bad", yes. Further, establishing the history of the conquerors as the dominant narrative is a time honored…
I manage a website for a small business that doesn't want or warrant a full integrated blog engine. Feedburner allows the business owners to write news/announcements on blogger.com and display them on the front page of…
Except it isn't a neutral third party when one party gets to pick the arbitrator and the other party has no say. It's why forced arbitration in employment contracts are so odious, it's the corporation + a corporate…
Weird, I don't see one line mentioning "crippling fear of dying in a gutter of an easily curable condition that I can't afford the five figure+ hospital bill for".
I've been using 8 off and on since it went RTM and don't really feel "forced" into metro at all. The only time I even really see Metro is when searching for something, otherwise it's just a slightly snappier 7 with the…
A lot of discussion on the hardware side and none on the software. The modern mac has benefited enormously in terms of software availability and compatibility from being nix based and on x86 hardware. Does it really…
No, see, that was the "cool" thing about Vilerat. He wasn't just some Joe Goon "ironically" shouting racial slurs. He was the moderator of the "serious" discussion subforum on SA, where he frequently expressed such…
How else do you define a group led by royalists and other rich western expats, backed by the IMF and armed and supported by NATO, taking over the country and installing themselves as a puppet government in service to…
Yes, why on earth would a population subjected to invasion and ongoing occupation by imperial western powers find an attack on their culture objectionable and representative of their entire daily situation? MUST BE…
Tell that to the author of that post. Oh wait....
Couldn't have happened to a nicer racist apologist for imperialism. RIP Viletat
