Who is to define what is and isn't art and speech? You? Me?
This is humiliation. This is malice. This is revenge. This is greed. This is crime. Revenge porn
Then call it these things. Stop trying to make it something it isn't, and admit you consider stopping these to be much more important than freedom of speech.
Should I be allowed to market stuff with an image of you attach to it? Immaterial rights isn't fun but it does extend quite a lot. Lots of countries have freedom of speech without freedom to sue.
From that site, one of the most important claim is "using unlicensed drivers with some of its services", sometimes getting an unlicensed veichle + driver when you order a Uber drive isn't very good, and I do think the comapny should pay dearly for that. Now there are people who only care about getting cheap services, but in the case of Uber you pay the same amount for a licensed and an unlicensed driver.
The amount of unlicensed Uber drivers seems to be rather small here, but they do exist sadly, and I find it strange that Uber doesn't try harder to fix this problem.
You think they are crazy, but as along time audiophile I can till you we are just trolls who are spending or claiming to spend lots of money only to get attention. This conspiracy has been going on for to many decades now, but it's getting old so I'm exposing it here.
I'm just going listen to Simon and Garfunkel on my built in 386 era PC-speaker now.
you're going to have a VERY hard time avoiding Google completely.
Not really. If it's something that is important to you it can be done in 2 days without expert knowledge. You are not going to get everything that Google has, but enough to be useable.
"they already got paid for their work" [..] That's what pirates always say, right?
More and more artist starting from 2004-2010 have produced their own content with little investment from music companies and might not have gotten paid at all by the record company. Many times they get an small advance that is paid of by the royalties, until that advance is paid off they receive no further money. That's going to take a long time if all artists on streaming services have to split 68 cents per month and user.
They do well in [compared to] public or private schools-- cost,
The cost of putting kids in school is very low some thing like ~$14000 per year, and that is in a country with very high costs. So if you are unemployed and home schooling is considered to be usefull in the workplace when you have done it for 9-years then there might be a cost benefit, even for society.
So the cost of homeschooling is extreme, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't homeschool our kids when they get home from publich school...
I made management after a couple of years and was afforded more schedule-leeway... bam, right into the public system they went.
Sounds like your company sucks..:-) What if you tried to make the company a bit more parent friendly place to work in, now that you are in management and have more schedule-leeway. A happy worker is a good worker..
That's why drivers should have insurance so we don't have to sue them. Cars are involved in accidents quite a lot, they are more dangerous than smoking with all factors included, so of course an Uber car has been in an accident.
No, he was surprised that what he *thought* were keys to S3 unlocked the whole kingdom. In reality, the keys he was using were root credentials, and were always intended to unlock the whole kingdom.
This is entirely Amazons fault they should improve their crappy credential system. The is point that everyone makes mistakes so root keys are a really bad idea. Especially since you generate them when you are in a "just get this shit working" mode, not "lets design a super secure key management system" mode.
There is, in fact, a well-documented "conspiracy",
As you say there is a toxic culture in some places and if you stand up and fight besides these people you have lost, or if they fight for you cause. It's a common problem.
It's like wine, beer and safran I don't buy it to get drunk/fat, I like it because it taste good. 95% of the chocolate bars I buy, costs $7, the other 5% are $2 and $18.
This is obviously to some part selective bias, but I only see the bad things done to Quinn and Sarkeesian, and the defense of those actions from GamersGate people. All those links are just further evidence of that.
Much of her argument comes down to the fact that she wants to work with people who look and act like her, not like me.
No she says it's hard to fit in if there is no respect for diversity. It's your choice to make the interpretation that belittles her opinions about diversity. Group-think is comforting when you are in the group, but doesn't really work when you widen your horizon.
[..] it's quite reasonable for anyone to want to have folks at work that they can relate to [...] It's pretty uncomfortable being the only dad at a kid's birthday party.
No! It's about people being more including, and you can't ever be including if you are always in your own non-diverse bubble. I have no problems being the only dad at birthday parties, vice versa for my girlfriend. I have heard some stories told about fathers the eighties when it wasnt normal to split parental leave, but now days it's normal and you get no funny looks. But we do get 480 days of parental leave to spend for 7 years, so there is more to play with.
I've had (clearly non native) reviews complaining incorrectly about English constuctions that I've used, and recommending I get a native English speaker to review it. The nerve of that is quite astonishing and it would be funny if such reviewers didn't generally revel in making the life of authors as miserable as possible.
You know I have lots of friends who work with native speakers to make their texts easier to read, strange constructs is just one thing they remoev.
The utilities model is based on the notion that you can recover your capital costs (and more) over the lifetime of the plant. The rapid rise of solar in particular is putting that at risk, and utilities are caught between a rock and a hard place. They can fight by keeping power costs low, and lose, or they can fight by raising their power costs--however they want to do the accounting--and also lose.
Utilities are infrastructure, it is possible to seperate the big plants from the network, it's already done in many places. The question is how much of the network should the customer pay for and how much should the generator pay for. Solar is putting that to a test.
55% of my electric costs is network related, for some houses it's 90% of the cost..
Perhaps you could expand on how Facebook emulates what you see in the yard with girls? It really has never occurred to me. Please remember that your own experience is a very small sample, and your opinions will rule over your experiences (some kind of personal conditioning, the exact term in english alludes me atm).

A private comment to your friend
Common power tactic, I'm sure they thought it was really funny and wanted everyone to hear.
She's the Problem, no one else.
Anonymous people on the internet is the problem, what Hank and Adria did was not important.
she picked two people having a private conversation
Part of why you have code of conducts is that nothing is private at a conference, I can hear what you are saying two rows in front of you.
Thanks, Obama administration.
I know you are bitter and ranting, but really, calm down please.
But how do you show off audio cables?
You post to slashdot that how!
