At least we can talk about it.
Oh, I remember these. Those kits were a lot of fun.
Explain this a bit. I'm interested, but I don't fully understand how you mean this.
Not saying this is what you're doing, but I find requiring someone to solve a problem immediately after sharing it can (ironically) stifle finding a solution. The act of identifying and the act of solving rarely happen…
Unless, of course, it continually has been becoming Reddit, but Reddit has been constantly changing too ;)

They're really using every tactic they can -- and for the life of me, I have no idea why. They've pushed so hard, for so long, to make Bing succeed -- even forcing it in the Start menu -- and it's still not owning the…
Ontologically, it implies the existence of Turbobloat 3000.
I can see that, but I think calling it just nostalgia-driven is judging a book by its cover. First off, I want to say you can totally have a design ethos that covers game engines as much as irrigation systems -- Lee…
To an absolute hardliner for appropriate technology, probably -- but simplicity isn't necessarily all-or-nothing, and (IMO) helping people pull off cool things with simpler tools isn't so bad.…

That's really great work, thanks -- could you share a link to the 50% polls? This is probably worth porting back to the Wikipedia page to set the record straight.
I'm so in love with the philosophy of this project. It's one of the few frameworks that I feel can do no wrong.
To be honest, I can't shake the suspicion that a fair share of the talking is not homegrown. > Facebook stated that they had removed fake users that were set up in overseas content farms, in Romania, Vietnam, and…
It's definitely not 'overwhelmingly popular,' but polling shows majority support (66%) from Canadians for use of the Emergencies Act at the time of the protest.…
Even if they achieve it, the reputational damage would be hard to understate. I think anyone with a bone to pick with the States would happily and repeatedly point to us Canadians as an example of what happens when you…
That's a great point; I'm glad you added that context and I'll take back that characterisation. I was mostly speaking through the lens of Farage's antics, and lacked the viewpoint of someone from the UK proper.
Is this a runaround way to say you don't have any reliable sources to share with us? I'm sure if you linked them they would be very convincing.
I think the Overton window has become much easier to slide around with social media influence campaigns. If someone powerful wants something -- even if it's against everyone else's interests -- it's now much easier for…
Are you trying to compare an emergency vehicle -- which is there to save someone's life -- with someone blasting a train horn outside your house to harass your neighbourhood as a deliberate political tactic? Are you…
