> play the board game without the rule book

Nooooo! It's not a good board gaming session unless you spend 90 minutes poring over the rulebook and 19 minutes in gaming, well known fact. How can you do that if you don't have the rulebook with you!

Honest question: What's the logic behind being so utterly rude from the first moment to someone you find attractive? Is it supposed to attract them back somehow?
The content of 3rd party websites is the merchandise. Users are users. Just because it's financed by ads doesn't mean they're not interested in your experience. Facebook currently experiences how problematic declining user engagement can be. If Google search quality ever drops below that of others (Bing, Yandex), they'd be in real trouble. Their superior search is the only reason they make all that money.

I get that some are dissatisfied by "paying" with ads. But the alternative would be a paid-for search engine. Not only would that potentially exclude some, it would also make it harder to access search for people from low-income countries. Currently, US and Europe subsidise operations for money other areas, allowing them to get the same search experience. That'd change with a paid-for model.
Do people not believe there's actually a problem in society?

My knowledge of Elxir is the little I learned at a 3 hour meetup showing how to build a basic chat app, I am looking forward to learning more about it, and similar languages.

I wonder if most shared hosting plans would ever allow these kinds of installers to run if they were made. I've been told on occasions by different hosts that we would need to move up to a vps to even change some settings with php ini and such.

Even with a VPS I have had hosts say that we can't run certain kinds of apps, and that we would be throttles with cpu limits and if they were constantly hit then we'd be given the option to move to dedicated server or move away from the host.

So I think a lot of the easy hosting out there may not be ready for things that take installers aside from some basic php things like wordpress (which gets us rate limited with some plugins / hosts)

I understand that it may be trivial for some people to spin up a DO droplet kind of thing and install dependencies, but even if newer web site makers can do these things, maintaining these systems with updates and security is not for the average one-click web site installer.

So it's a big issue for other reasons too I think.
It seems almost off from the audio. I know it isn’t but it just feels that way. Also the lack of eye movement and a few other “natural” things throw it off a bit for me.
"For example, a search engine could add a small factor to search results from "friendly" companies, and subtract a factor from results from competitors"

That's basically what Google got sued for in the EU and they lost. The friendly companies were other Google properties.
Hey - I totally agree it can be annoying, especially since Drift asks users to enter their email address and people are worried about spam. So it’s a tradeoff between annoyance at the pop up and the support users get when they have problems. Our website is a video editing tool, so we decided that it’s more important to have someone to answer questions than to avoid “peeing off” users.

And, regardless of how annoying a chat box is, the findings of this article still stand...[This is Julia btw, the author of this post]
Thanks for clearing that up. If the FSF interpretation is inaccurate in this concern, that means embedding infringing content is also infringing, but that doesn't pose a threat for embedding non-infringing tweets? The problem is, as usual, embedders cannot differenciate one from the other - how should you tell the person who made the picture and the person posting it apart?

Of course, US being the US, nobody wants to step up to protect anything remotely a consumer...
That is a fair statement. I suspect that this poses challenges on a number of levels, including what areas on finds of interest and how they prefer to be engaged.

Between work, family, and school my opportunities to indulge are more limited than I would prefer. Recently I had an opportunity to listen to old lectures by Prof Malan (I understand that newer version of these lectures are now available on edx.org). When I am in the mood for something tied to current events, I enjoy taking time to read Krebs (krebsonsecurity.com) or catch up on conference presentations that I missed (still working my way through the material from ShmooCon).

There are plenty of people out there who think the legal inequalities faced by women are now completely removed, and everything is therefore ok. Not only is that an incorrect premise, but its an incorrect conclusion - women face significant societal obstacles and pain just because they're women.

And I think we would all agree that the ideal amount of abuse heaped on your team is zero.
> misogyny

I keep seeing this word being used, and I don't think it's apt. I don't think we're seeing "dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women", much less "hatred of women".

I think it's much closer to the truth to say that people everywhere are extremely interested in and enamored of women, but that women provide some kind of easy target for expression of bad feelings or trolling.

As a former troll, I can say nobody really wants to mess with Eric Lu because there's just no troll juice there. A guy would just laugh at those "mean" comments. I certainly have laughed at comments like that. Nobody wants to troll me because the comments just can't get any purchase.

So, please, let's stop with the myth that people hate women. People love women, guys have been dying for women since forever, and it's certainly not because they have contempt for them or hate them. There's clearly a discriminatory thing going on here, but its root is not hatred of women.
The article did state comments came from all parts of the globe (presumably they're doing some kind of GeoIP look up)?

I'd love to say it's just 1 or 2 idiots but stories like these are so common that Ive come to the conclusion that there is a very real gender bias at play. Which makes me both sad from the perspective of equality and disappointed as a representative of the male species. :(

I'm not sure how you would create a worse implementation of virtual desktops than Windows 10 has them:

- No indication of other workspaces existing.

- No indication of what applications are in those other workspaces.

- The keyboard shortcut for walking through desktops requires two hands (and in typical Windows fashion cannot be rebound).

I'm not familiar with macOS' implementation, so if you actually think that it's worse, then I would like to know how.

Also should be said, though, that you can replace the window manager on macOS, which should allow you to get most of the features of an actually good implementation of virtual desktops. I'm not aware of a way to do that on Windows.

That's obviously true, but it doesn't detract from the point that women, in this case and many others, are unfairly targeted for abuse, particularly online.
I can't relate to her post. We use on purpose attractive female profiles for our support chat avatars (our product is a SaaS) and the cases where a user behaves like this are 0.5% and for us not a problem at all, we just ignore them.

FYI, we tested a while different pics, female, male, average looking, good looking and we just got the best conversion rates with the above mentioned.

Is the Angular Decline a Myth?
Just guessing based on behaviours I have witnessed amongst school friends and work colleagues.

If you're not an attractive person yourself there are women and girls who are out of your reach. This breeds resentment at an early age, and a weapon of choice, for some, is derogatory language.

Why, because what else can you do to hurt someone so easily without fear of repercussion?

The problem is not just confined to misogynists btw. If you're a man and have an attractive wife or girlfriend the insulting behaviour still goes on, but usually behind your back - these people are generally cowards after all.
Yeah, to be clear when I said “makes sense” I was referring to what allows for a functional ecosystem of Twitter, users, media, etc. and not a legal evaluation. IANAL and all that.

In this case wouldn’t your innocent infringement example apply? As I understand it there’s an implicit license to use the content of tweets via an official Twitter embed. That would mean it would be fine to show the image via an embedded tweet from the copyright holder, as they agreed to that by posting the tweet in the first place and presumably could revoke that right by deleting the tweet. So the argument would be that the media sites had the rights to republish the tweet and thus believed that the author of the tweet had the rights to the contents of the tweet (which they didn’t). Is that logic not applicable here or is it that a media company should know better and thus it’s not a reasonable mistake?

Also wouldn’t the DMCA be applicable here as the method by which the photographer could get the photo removed from Twitter?
That's because China banned all game consoles at that time. All these game companies crazily want to join that market.
I love DDG but the problem is that google is still the best whenever I want to search something that's not in English or that's localized. So I still use google for that.
Ms. Enthoven covered that point rather nicely, I thought.
No, but both the law and morality are allowed to utilize thresholds for determining acceptable risks; we weigh the risk of someone hurting themselves or others against the benefit of allowing people the ability to modify the hardware. Obviously we will all have different opinions about the relative value of risk vs freedom, but we should be able to settle on some median for how we value each. No matter what, it isn't the case that aggreeing with the idea that some machines are so dangerous we should prevent modification of the software forces us to agree that we are right to prevent modification of software on machines that have any danger at all.
I think that removing this chat box from the website completely will greatly improve it and solve this problem. Just have a page with a feedback form somewhere, so people who realy want to leave a feedback or a question could contact you. Stop annoying your users and random visitors!
I'd be perfectly fine with visiting the site to get the image if there weren't tons of blog/twitter type sites where it links to the frontpage and you have to dig through years of posts to find the image you're after.
The Wire still matters
That's just an insensitive comment of yours. As if it being just an "animal" somehow means that it was less of a loss or tragedy. Because its "just" an animal should we not compare numbers to numbers for perspective? Isn't that a rather silly stance to have when talking about deaths in the first place?

Humans are an animals too, the most numerous in fact. We should show some empathy and understanding in regards to all life. Not separate and somehow feel indifferent about anything "non-animal".
Perhaps because according to studies men are actually more likely to experience online harrasment?

0.5% of users behaving like this is not a problem to you, cause you're a guy, and you don't care about sexual harassment cause you're not bombarded apparently all day.
This is exactly how I felt before I read this post.
But even 0.5% seem a very high number to me, cause in my opinion, you have to be mentally retarted to think that this is 'accepted' behaviour in any way, or that it will actually land you a date, a nude pic or a sexchat?!
Meh. The older and more experienced I get the more I realize I work to put food in the table and to pay for my life outside. Working for “passion” is for suckers. As the dude in that one YouTube video about consulting says, fuck you. Pay me.

They are absolutely inexcusable. Website developers should make simpler design rather than make everyone search for close button and consider every user an idiot.

Also it can make user feel uncomfortable, as if there is someone behind their back standing and looking what they are doing with the site.

This popup is also deceiving users. For example on the screenshot [1] we can see a human user thinking that a real person wrote a greeting to him and wasting time of his life replying to a bot.

I am sorry you have to spend half an hour downloading your statements. But what you’re complaining about comes under commercial banking tech, which is generally outsourced to IT consulting firms.

Since the post is framed as a gender issue, let me offer another view that I think is evidently good to remember in the conversation: according to studies, men are more likely to experience online harrasment [1].

I would wager most people would think these are bots, especially when photos are used. Internet users are a little too accustomed to stock photos of happy company employees gathering and customer support smiling for the camera.

Then they want to see how the bot responds to stupid memes.
>A guy would just laugh at those "mean" comments.

>People love women

What are these statements based on?

Meanwhile, the vast majority of domestic violence victims, and the victims of murders where the assailant was in a relationship with the murderer, are women. This idea that "people love women" is not reality based.

Plenty of men have spoken out about how toxic and awful online culture can be. It's not too hard to find examples.
I guess that the “video-meme” demographics is quite different than yours. Which type of SaaS is it?
vertx gives you async and none-blocking operation ability. actually it is focusing these kind of solutions so you run different verticles on your osgi containers ?

and one more question which tech you will choose over osgi bundles? java9 modular systems or microservices or completely different solution i just wonder
No, the currect feature set will remain free forever! I will offer additional features for premium. I anticipate similar prices to my competitors which should be $8-$10/month or $40-$60/year.
I don't want to trivialize the misogyny and sexism that shines through in the behavior you're seeing, but I think this is a big part of it. By now many users assume that any unsolicited message from a female is a bot, phishing, or both. Definitely becomes a problem when you're an actual person just trying to engage your users.

I wonder if it was self imposed or externally mandated. Bing's image search still has it but it is behind the 'more options' ellipsis. I was always amused by the hotlinking battles where websites would substitute some other image if it was hot linked.

> So, this is basically a technical argument based on a technical implementation detail. These mostly are considered irrelevant and frequently fail (see, e.g., napster et al)

"Details are irrelevant" is the argument you get from people who don't want to consider the implications of the details.

> I could simply avoid all liability by setting up a server/separate legal entity in a country with no copyright laws, place all images there, and then i've never published anything at all by your argument.

Is this not exactly the sort of thing companies do on a regular basis to avoid, for example, taxes? Or minimum wage laws or a hundred other things like that? If there is a jurisdiction where it's legal then it's legal to do it in that jurisdiction, no?

> Similarly, if i wrote a book, and on page 34 it said "for the text and images on this page, please see Encyclopedia Brittanica volume B, page 38", the law would probably be okay with that. If i had an electronic book that auto-loaded and displayed that content for the user, so the user did not have to do it, they'd probably consider it infringement.

This is where we're getting to the part where the technical details have relevance. A website isn't a device, it's a piece of information which is rendered by a third party device. You are just telling them where they can find the information. But the third party browser on the third party device has the capacity to fetch and display it for the user.

Consider a similar scenario: Devices improve to the point that they can parse the words "for the text and images on this page, please see Encyclopedia Brittanica volume B, page 38" and then automatically fetch and display the images. Has your sentence retroactively become infringing because the user's device has improved?

This sort of thing starts to have real salience when you get into things like content addressable storage, where the hash of the data both identifies it and can be used to locate, obtain and authenticate it.
