I am very dissapointed with my online peers right now.
Almost everywhere I read o nline anymore is a sad tale about people that have convinced themselves that our next President is someone he is not. I don't know where the lies became so bold they began to take on their own truth but it needs to be 'checked'. ( reference to a direct quote for the astute )
I know these people to be very intellig ent, and I wish for all of our sakes they would turn their brains back on, and deploy some critical thinking to the matter.

I should point out that I am not riding a bus or a train, I am driving. You focus on driving, or eventually your life-insurance will pay out to your beneficiary.
Driving is not cleansing. On dangerous roads, even less so.
Your points are well suited to helping me make mine.
Can there be bias (no matter how small) in a news outlets representation of news? Absolutely. There is no objective person, and there is no objective system written by humans that is objective
My concern is this precise bias that you have described will be a determining factor in which some entity, government or otherwise, will delineate a news item as 'fact' or 'false'. Even Myth Busters got this wrong sometimes and that was with physical experimentation.
I accept solid proof. Anyone that gets their 'news' or 'science' from the entertainment industry are a special kind of stupid.
You want facts, go look them up yourself or ask someone you trust to look into it. Asking entertainers to be impartial and honest is ludicrous. All they are there for is the paychecks the ratings grab.
A good example is all over the media. Zimmerman, defending himself but tried and found guilty in the court of public opinion, despite rock solid evidence that pointed to self defense. Michael Brown was a robbery suspect fighting for Wilson's firearm. The current popular 'facts' spread by the media weren't facts at all, and under this new 'anti fake news' regime those lies told by the entertainment industry to incite news-generating riots run the risk of becoming religious dogma.
But, to be fair, sometimes, months to years later they recant and post something like the following, but it's never hyped like the shootings are.
So tell me, which of those news articles would have been flagged as fake? And what if the majority of the censors are black and don't like the truth depicted above to be considered 'real news'? Stop pretending you know it wouldn't be flagged as 'fake'.
If the initiative is honest that goes for both sides you know.
If it's only targeting one side then that's a different beast that I am certain will result in more than one lawsuit. Not because it isn't the private companies right to choose to censor it's users, but because of the effect that might have election seasons.
Lets be honest here, this 'fake news' bs is all politically motivated.
It's F- all nearly impossible to tell what story is true and what is not when both sides are trying to cover up wrong-doing or smear the other candidate. It's better to have the 'news' out there with the understanding an accusation is *not* evidence and allow the reader to ruminate upon the plausibility of the charges.
What really should happen with any accusation is have it go through court to effectively prove or disprove an allegation. Accusation is not evidence, and a trial is not a conviction. Hillary should have had her day in court, if anything to completely dispel any sense of wrong doing. But both the public and Hillary were denied this. Instead, there's a campaign to kill 'fake news'. What's that old phrase? If you have done nothing wrong then what have you to hide? This is why I object to this 'fake news' initiative.
Whats worse is the news cartels, talk radio, news papers, magazines, etc are all the entertainment industry anyways. Having your publication branded as 'not fake' gives them far more credibility than they deserve.
the act of penetration lasts for more than three minutes
By that logic, all men should still have their bones. Cause, if you're lasting less than three minutes with the same woman for how many years I am so very sorry.

No because C# needs to die.
You may not like it, but C++ and C are what interfaces directly to your hardware.

Unless you live 70 miles from work, and have to take one of the most dangerous highways in the state to get there and back.

Java will die at a speed limited the by ability of large corporations to move away from using it.
This is hugely accurate.
It will probably stick around for a while in small shops, but any large corp that gets a bill will ditch Java in favor of the bottom line.
I drove 3 to 4 hours a day getting to and from work.
The commute is the mind killer.
The thought alone is enough to cause erectile dysfunction. I wouldn't want to lose something so important.
No, it's not. And if you do you need to step away from the computer, and look around you. For like a year or more.

Can't tell if Genius, trolling, or serious.
Going with genius trolling.

So you're saying the truth has an alt-right-conservative bias then?
Finally maybe we will start to see the decline of Facebook.
I see no way how this could be abused.
Liberalism is a mental disease.
Yea I see no possible way this could be abused...

There is nothing Trump will be capable of doing that would appease the terminally offended.
Back Oriface.
Just saying.
Oh joy,
The job market is about to be flooded with pissed off ex-Google employees.
