  1. Re:Socialism??? on Are Silicon Valley Workers Abandoning Libertarianism For Socialism? (salon.com) · · Score: 2

    Actually that's communism. Corporations love socialism. Can't live without that sweet corporate welfare and those fat government contracts.

  2. You mean things like:

    "...workers across the video game industry -- generally among the most overworked, underpaid workers within the tech industry..."

    or

    "... grueling work culture and a high-profile collusion scandal among major tech corporations to suppress software engineers' wages..."

    You mean that stuff. Moron.

  3. Re:Now you see the true power of the Tesla on Fiat Chrysler Will Pay Tesla To Dodge Billions In Emissions Fines (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    RTFA. They're not buying Tesla cars. FIAT is buying emissions credits from Tesla.

  4. This is waste of fucking time and does nothing about climate change. Jesus fucking Christ you could actually go after the real drivers instead of the insignificant piddly bull shit.

  5. Would those be smart phones? Because not all cell phones are smart phones.

    Here's a though genius, make the receipt smaller. Shock I know. Because:

    "The American Forest and Paper Assn., a paper industry group that opposes the bill, estimates that the United States generates 180,000 tons of paper receipts each year. That, the group points out, is a small percentage of total paper waste."

    So not really a problem is it Potsy....

    Interesting, so then I suppose you support a major military spending cut...

    It depends on how the money is spent. So it's overly simplistic to say spending more money didn't not solve problems in education.

  8. Re:Bio/Medical Fields on Is Statistical Significance Significant? (npr.org) · · Score: 1

    It's about publishing Potsy. Something you would know if you were an actual researcher. The publishing game is about publishing statistical significant results. If you don't have that, your research does not get published.

    If you had RTFA you would know that no one is banning anything:

    "We are not calling for a ban on P values."

    "Nor are we saying they cannot be used as a decision criterion in certain specialized applications (such as determining whether a manufacturing process meets some quality-control standard)."

    " And we are also not advocating for an anything-goes situation, in which weak evidence suddenly becomes credible."

    "Rather, and in line with many others over the decades, we are calling for a stop to the use of P values in the conventional, dichotomous way — to decide whether a result refutes or supports a scientific hypothesis."

    Reading is fundamental and you failed. Moron.

  9. Yeah tell that to a business that after market consolidation is suddenly down to one supplier versus two. https://washingtonmonthly.com/...

    Bull shit and you know it. Apple expressly forbids repairs from 3rd party repair shops or else it voids the warranty. John Deer won't let you repair their tractors because they claim it violates their IP.

    Might want to read up before posting inane blather.

  18. No it's a buzz word. Network devices or internet devices would be the correct term. "Internet of Things" is not.

  19. Technology Changes Nothing! on Bruce Schneier: It's Time For Technologists To Become Lawmakers (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 2



    “Corporations have basically control over free speech and censorship regardless of laws,” he said.

    This has ALWAYS been true. Technology does not change this, it just makes it easier to do. Restricting speech and controlling behavior have been activities that corporations have ALWAYS done.

    Look at Monsanto and how they prosecute farmers that want to re-use seed that is spilled on the ground. Monsanto claims that is theft.

    Look at John Deer and other manufacturers that prosecute people who try to repair their tractors and claim intellectual property theft.

    Technology did not introduce a new set of behaviors. Technology did NOT create a legal vacuum. You have a legal system that defers to corporate interests. This was not brought about by technology. This attitude is a philosophical one. It only changes when people challenge it.

    One does not need to be a technologist to do so.

  20. What these people are doing is preserving or archiving information to share with people. As other's have posted, also known as data retention.

    Someone who hoards, hides away what they accumulate.

    The two are not the same. But since the term "hoarder" is en-vogue people want to use it for notoriety's sake. Morons.
