> Christianity was one of the first belief systems to suggest that all people _were_ actually people: up until then, "people" was just part of whichever clan you were in. Other folks were sub-human.

I disagree:

Many people, including Christians, have used religion to justify treating others as sub-human. Consider slavery in the United States, often justified by religion, and treatment of people of different sexual orientations today. Many other horrible things have been done in Christianity's name (which again is true of all religions).

Many religions emphasize treatment of strangers (and guests). I would bet all religions say that, and in other places all religions justify killing the sub-human, apostate 'other'. Religious scriptures (at least those I've read) are self-contradictory, vague documents; subject to wide ranges of interpretations; written by many people over long periods of time. Often people interpret whatever they want to see; perhaps that's necessary if your religion is going to appeal to millions or billions of people, across cultures and eras.

OSv is not a general purpose OS although it does support a subset of the Linux ABI for compatibility. Both application and OSv share the same address space and application code is linked directly to the kernel at start-up (there's an embedded ELF linker). The design is wildly different from MirageOS but I don't really see why you would not call it an unikernel.

> Eventually we have to get a re-boot of these characters

Why? For instance James Bond worked just fine with simply replacing whomever was playing Bond from time to time.

> You can only drag someone to see an origin story so many times.

But rebooting ends up simply retelling origin stories over and over. How many times do you need to tell how Superman (yes I know that's DC) or Batman (again, DC) or Spiderman became themselves, or how their villains became them.

Apparently it's every 10 years for Spiderman.

The actual actor for these parts shouldn't matter. That they play the character and in the continuity should. But maybe I'm missing something, I never really got into comic books.

The libre and open software community is way too considerate with existing users. Combine that with anarchistic development and you get the inconsistent and complex mess we ended up with.

Debian is _horrible_. And it will never be good without radical changes, possibly including changing options and syntax of commands, breaking API's and ABI's and breaking every running instance of it.

Just look at basic commands. It's 'cp ifile ofile' but 'dd if=ifile of=ofile'. This one-of-many wart has to go, exiled together with all its siblings.

Common shell languages like sh and it's children are nightmarish abominations, unintuitive and unsafe - they deserve to die in flames.

We need change. A change for the better; for intuitiveness, for elegance, conformity, consistency, for learnability. Until then, Windows and Apples OS will stand a chance.

Intelligent design is what we need, not only evolution.

Problem is, people paying to dispose of garbage are not paying the entire environmental cost of the growing landfill. They're just (barely) paying the operational cost of transporting their junk to the landfill. In a perfect world, your garbage bill would include the total environmental impact of your choice to use and throw away disposable products. Until the "throw it away" lifestyle hits people's wallets, it's not going to change.

Quantifying that cost is a challenge--maybe start with how much $$ it would take to "un-product" the product and return it back to the raw materials it came from. In some cases, we'd find it probably costs more to un-make a product than it was sold for.

Could also (in addition to, or instead of) charge the MANUFACTURER for a portion of this shared environmental cost, as they ultimately chose to make a product designed to be turned into pollution.

I strongly dislike Marvel movies. I have no respect at all for films that are released in 3D (and sometimes IMAX and IMAX 3D) when they are not filmed in 3D or using IMAX cameras. It is a pure money grab. Disney does not care about quality, they care about profits. The endless sequels and prequels and spinoffs are simply greed. They will not withstand the test of time. A decade or two from now, people will look back at Nolan's Batman series as the definitive super hero films of the day. They use real sets and stunts instead of endless poor quality CGI action scenes that move too fast for you to see what is even happening (hint: it's because what's happening is meaningless, but bright colors and fast movement stimulate your brain). Marvel exists to sell children disposable plastic action figures and made in China clothing that will fall apart before the next sequel comes out.

Children are marketed to and manipulated with cartoons and "happy meal" toys. It is insidious.

On top of that, Disney expends a tremendous amount of money on marketing to force their products into the prevailing culture. Have you noticed how many television shows have references to Marvel super heroes? Those jokes aren't because the writers are fans, Disney pays for them. Actors don't wear super hero t-shirts randomly. It's all marketing.

They are doing the same thing with Star Wars. There has been an insane amount of hype for the new movie and various spinoff products already. Quite frankly I am sick of it. I am not going to see the new Star Wars movie in theaters because this type of behavior should not be rewarded.

Disney buys up treasured parts of global culture and exploits them to death. It was heart breaking to see them do this to Pixar. Cars 2, Monsters University... just shameful cash ins.

To make matters worse, Disney doesn't even pay it's fair share of taxes on the massive income generated by these franchises: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30412293

The only thing that you can do is to vote with your dollars and time. Please stop supporting this exploitative behavior.
This is really really fine for apple to do as they are just creating an option for a highly curated app store. I mean, if they were attempting to criminalize loading 3rd party apps/using alternative app stores then it would be horrible, but doing that would just be crazy.

I upvoted you as you make a good point. But a quick note: you can't be a convicted monopolist. "Monopolization" is illegal, but that requires both monopoly power and anticompetitive conduct. Monopoly power on its own is not illegal (at least theoretically).
My uncle does, not by choice but because his house was robbed about ten years ago, and the insurance company refused to renew his policy unless he installed one.

Convicted hit-and-run drivers should similarly be forbidden from taking a taxi or bus, or riding as a passenger. They are dangerous if in any contact with a motor vehicle. And that should probably include escalators and elevators, too.

> If you want to go after Apple, go after the way they don't allow consumers to modify the software or install custom software on iOS.

I agree, because this is practically the same issue. The app store isn't just a way to get iOS software, it's the only way to get iOS software. Which means that being rejected from the app store means you cannot provide your product to those consumers. Which means Apple rejecting products from the store is the same thing as Apple stating that that company cannot provide that app to customers. You could see where this might become an issue when that reason for rejection has nothing to do with the actual application and everything to do with mentioning a competing product in the description.

If side-loading was permitted, then I think (2) would hold. However, in our current world without side-loading, (2) basically states that Apple has full control over what software products consumers may purchase for their device. IANAL, but to me, that fact could bring antitrust liability.

I was just raising the point that your specific example of Ford is weak due to the fact that there are indeed laws that prevent how Ford can sell and restrict third-party sales of their vehicles, parts and services.

> is just as ignorant as saying Ford is a monopoly because only they make F-150s

Which only goes to support my statement of the weakness in your example. That even if you don't entertain the grandparents claim that a manufacturer has a monopoly on a product, your specific example shows there are indeed laws that prevent Ford from asserting that kind of control on the market. Which include franchise laws preventing auto manufacturers from owning dealerships which is likened to Apple owning the App Store. It also prevents auto manufacturers from preventing third party manufacturers from creating compatible aftermarket parts, likened to Apple's MFi restrictions. All of these are playing out elsewhere in the example market you brought into the discussion. The manufacturer controlled marketplace is playing out through Tesla. The third-party and aftermarket suppression is playing out in the Right to Repair in the auto and heavy equipment market. I never asserted that the grandparents claim of a "manufactures monopoly" over their own product was correct. Only that your example was a poor choice.

> I just don't see a monolithic web framework being high up on the list of "must haves".

And I think that's what makes Go so welcome to many people. In fact, I'm tired of frameworks that do everything for me because they tend to do everything just "well enough".

And I noticed the OP is using Martini - which isn't necessarily bad - but it's not needed. It does make learning a language like Go a lot easier for newcomers though... I do think this sheds some wrong light on how people should be using Go. Martini isn't the answer, you should be using interfaces to make your code easier to work with, especially since they are implemented in Go so well.
That's a good point. I think the best approach there would be to tax the landfills themselves.

I wouldn't want to put a tax on the manufacturers, because you'll end up discouraging reuse. You don't want somebody who comes up with a novel way of using old Coke bottles to pay the same as somebody who just pitches them.

The Tor software doesn't encourage people to make this decision (based on the developers' judgement that random path selection is safest for most users and for the health of the network), but you can configure it to use (or not use) particular exit nodes by editing the Torrc file. Historically you could also see the particular path, including geolocation of the relays you were using, with the Vidalia software, and also pick a particular exit for a particular connection with the ".exit" address notation.

So although the Tor developers don't want to encourage most people to do it routinely, you can choose to view and/or select Tor paths if you really want to.

FTC won't but European union probably will plus in Europe they fine you a percentage of total revenue of company which for Apple could be over 15billion.

My recommendation to any one developing for apple devices is be ready to be blocked or kicked out of the app store if you are too successful. As apple will enter the market and if they do they will start applying rules they were ignoring earlier as those were selling devices for them but now they don't need you as you are a competitor so out you go.
It is a littlebit better C.
But Apple doesn't have anywhere near a monopoly on smart phones, so being anti-competitive is completely legal

The last part of your post is overly negative. Small town life can be much, much better than that... though there are numerous poor rural areas where your description would fit.

The first part is spot on. I'd say it applies to most or perhaps even all human communities. We are hive animals, and our communities are only loving and welcoming if you are "one of us." I have never seen a lasting attempt to transcend that. Doing so would probably make us infinitely happier, but we are slaves to our inherited instinctive wiring.

So if you don't fit in, the big lonely machine is better than the small lonely persecution of your origin.

I think this is interesting, but I would suggest showing some kind of sample recipe on the web site.

As an aside, I like cooking vegetarian recipes (usually dinner 4-5 times/week) but I usually go by whatever produce is freshest in my local grocery stores, and then design a menu around that.
Title is misleading. They're not rejecting apps that code in support for Pebble. They're rejecting apps that say they support it in the App Store copy. This is nothing new; you've never been able to mention other platforms in your App Store copy.
I for one would like to see a serious Go-based alternative to Wordpress. Virtually every major CMS out there uses PHP, and all of them are highly prone to hacking.
It's bad for everyone - it's not fair to firms, and justice isn't served. But follow the $... The states get a lot of income, and executives stay out of jail. If every bank is getting shaken down equally, no exec loses relative to their peers.

This isn't to say that I condone the bad behavior. If anything, I am amazed that more people haven't gone to jail.
Instead of reporting your bad behavior, I tried to explain it. You can't fix a problem without understanding it. You are the way you are for a reason, and you're probably not that different from other people who fit your profile. Shouldn't we try to understand hate, for instance? Making people social outcasts or deleting accounts for online bullying is not a great solution.
Some of there are, some of them don't :-)

The good think is that there's a lot more of variety on apps and plugins than there are different viable mainstream browsers, and I can use those for specific functions at different times. Bundling everything within the same application would force me to have them in my interface all the time.

> It's about market share and global impact

There's not some kind of, "the impact has to be as large as when company X did it" rule.

Apple now has enough market share, especially in mobile, that the global impact is troubling.
This is a confusing case even for non "low-tech" users. I had a shared dropbox folder with a friend. I was done with my copy of the files, so I deleted them because I was close to my dropbox space limit. He freaked out because dropbox then deleted them from his drive too. In retrospect, I guess it makes sense, but the idea that a delete would propagate was certainly not the expected behavior.
The purpose of the application description is to describe the features of the application. If your application has Dropbox support then I think you'd agree it's perfectly reasonable to mention Dropbox in your app description. The Pebble is an iOS accessory. It's equally reasonable to describe Pebble support as a feature. This goes beyond simply not mentioning competitors; Apple is preventing developers from describing features of their iOS app. It might be the same rule, but it's being used quite differently and worryingly.

Some apps only exist as companion apps for the Pebble, what are they going to put in their description?

Regardless of how we feel about genetic engineering, is anyone else tired of seeing manipulative headlines in regards to any news that comes out of China? Every-time I see a story about China, it has a negative connotation. In this case, "Chinese scientists just admitted to tweaking the genes of human embryos for the first time in history" is purposefully inflamatory. They didn't "admit" it, they actually tried to get it published in some major science publications. Use of the word Admission implies they were trying to be sneaky and hide the results. Thats not the case at all.

Journalists of the world, have you no idea what you are doing? Purposefully causing misunderstanding between nations is the path by which wars are paved.

This is a sore subject for me because while Im American, my wife is Chinese, and therefore half my family is Chinese and lives in China. I do work with Chinese developers everyday, but to hear the world news pundits put it, those developers are by default criminals. This needs to stop.
That's simply not true.

The tor client selects all of the nodes along the circuit including the exit node.
Sometimes those targeted aren't even offenders.
It does belong because the claim is that Apple is actively denying apps that support Pebble (which is not true). If Apple were doing that, they'd have taken down the official Pebble app entirely. You're muddying the entire discussion bringing in the consistency of Apple's enforcement of rules or how fair the rules are. None of that matters in this discussion.

What matters is that some dev made a wild claim that Apple is actively denying Pebble apps for being Pebble apps, when in fact they just failed to follow the rules. That's all there is to this. That this story is as popular as it is is ridiculous. The headline is clickbaity as hell and just outright false.

Once you make the choice to bring little ones into the world, it's not just about you and your pursuit of your happiness anymore.
