There is an element of truth in what you call hyperbole. Gordon Brown (in the treasury) produced a report to see how UK could integrate with the EU. The output was basically that the UK economy is not flexible enough. A…
People might not always agree with you dude and that is okay. Overuse of the wink smiley is patronising.
Perhaps but that does not invalidate what he said.
I do not think it is a problem that some people are not willing to charge something that you want to charge for. That is, for you to be profitable, you rely on someone else not doing something. That is the nature of…
The answer is to make your adverts fast, lightweight and battery efficient. This is competition at its finest - those with the fastest and most compact adverts do not get blocked. Claiming your business model will be…
Nope but I can see how you can read it that way. The important part is after the 'but'. More that I am paying for the same services but doing the right thing costs me far more in excess of the benefit to myself.
I am a UK taxpayer too but my building has no recycling. I live at home for one or two days a week and no personal transport. Why should I suffer all the costs of recycling?
I hate adverts. My problem with adverts is that they are not information, they are selective truths or downright lies. I cannot trust adverts.
Bitcoin is technically interesting and awesome. My problem with Bitcoin and why it does not completely solve the problem described in the article - it is a social problem. Like land, a lot of Bitcoin is landed wealth.…
I completely agree with this article. I would like to share a story of my own journey in this. For a long time I had wanted to lose some weight and to remove some bad habits. It dawned on me that I could eliminate the…
You cannot defend frontrunning of a market. If I ask for X at Y. Someone else shouldn't have the facility to buy it based on my own trade signal and try sell it back to me. It is mindblowingly simple theft. The…
This is an interesting hack: a host script can communicate with scripts in an iframe via the postMessage API and relying on the fact that a script running in the frame can make same-domain requests. I am worried that…
Aww. This is unfortunate - I frequently visit Freecode.

This makes me think of TempleOS. TempleOS [1] 'shell' operates as a programming environment - what you write is compiled and inserted into the same process that the OS is running as. It's a single address space. [1]…
These submissions make me feel like I am on LifeHacker.
I have a question regarding the type and amount of conflict between different organisations. I ask this because the kinds of issues in this article seem like common courtesy and respect to me. What kind and how severe…
It would seem that applying a law in spirit is incompatible with human nature. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_and_spirit_of_the_law
For the EU requirement to check if information is in the public interest, we have to have guards against the system being abused, such as wealthy people removing information about themselves. This implies some sort of…
Good question. While the right to forget is socially beneficial for society, there are technical problems that make it inconvenient. There is the problem of whether it is censorship to force a neutral party whose…
This is a strawman argument. It's blatantly obvious that a historically significant event such as a dictator needs to be kept as part of the history books because of the impact it had on many different people. At the…
Why is it no longer relevant? I don't think that is true.
I find it deeply concerning that a Klout score would be used for anything. Klout is not a measure of value.
That is a contrived example. In your example, the information would be kept, the fact the property was foreclosed would probably be stored in a cabinet or computer system in an office somewhere. You would make an effort…
Does this mean we should accept and ignore character smears, witness protection, cyberbullying and libel? Is it okay for someone to surrender the arbitrary association of content to their name which may not be true? The…
