Pft. Religion can be safely criticized because it's made up.
The blog you linked seems to miss the point. (Which I think is what you're saying.) If people try to guess URLs for what you see as (for example) steps 3-7 of a ten-step process, maybe you should see what your users are…

A good job of controlling something they incited? They didn't need to use violence on non-violent protestors. At this point they're lawless thugs with guns.

Even in Canadian protests the police have been caught sneaking in trouble-makers with rocks and black ski-masks. If they didn't create the panic they wouldn't get paid for solving it. Considering that the Turkish…
I helped a client write their own HN hiring letter. They'd originally had corp-speak in there like "5y PHP Developer". "Must have BS in ..." and we rewrote their requirements to things developers would have to know how…
Especially with mobile, where the government parcels out the ability to play (spectrum) to the companies that cooperate with it. At least in areas without natural monopolies you can shop around.
It's too bad they can choose to stop once they've started. Like the patent trolls new-egg is fighting. New-egg should essentially be able to take the trolls to court and part them out for sale, down to their CEO's…

DMCA takedown. Expulsion. Streissand effect. Hilarity. They couldn't keep it online, but couldn't be seriously censured for trying, and they wouldn't be alone.
Actually, software licenses aren't required to simply use a program - though you can certainly obtain a copy by licensing it. Essentially, copies made that are inherently required for the expected function of the work…

Maybe it says that Afghanistan's border is a pile of western-motivated political crap and the country shouldn't be. Hell, Quebec wants out of Canada and we generally all get along fairly well. Imagine how we'd feel if…

Go out in the desert with one captive and torture them and we'd try to stop you. Enslave a few million and successfully arm yourself against potential rescuers and you meet all the accepted standards of a sovereign…
You're pretty technically astute which leaves me thinking you're being obtuse for effect.
