Sure but that comment... why post it anonymously? Afraid of reprisals?

The casual racism. I probably come from oversees relative to you. Am I bad? Are you? What does it mean? Does it only work for one country? Sounds like religious bollocks too; the religion I happened to have been born into is the only true one; the others are evil. It's just simplistic bullshit for uneducated peasants, isn't it.

In the exciting world of html hairdressers, where this week's javascript framework and version control tool is far more important than writing code that's going to be stable, fast and be around in more than 2 months.

"My Grandmother on Mother's side always said all bad things come from oversees"

Embarrassing elderly relative.

Which OS is handling your SMSs?

Isn't Google+ more popular than Twitter?

I wouldn't know; I took 14 seconds to create an account. Why don't you?

"Cloudflare hosting which is notorius for spam and botnets"

Huh? That's a powerfully stupid thing to say. It's what you use when you don't want script kiddies ddosing your site.

Just read the news, from multiple sources. Then when someone defends this or that regime your bullshit detector will kick in automatically.

No, we went there and it was a load of fucking bollocks and came back. That's why they're stuck with a stupid name and no readers and slashdot-reject articles. The hissy-fit politics was amusing for a while, though.

Most people haven't heard of "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" though.

"With concerns being raised about the deal's impacts on everything from intellectual property rights to government sovereignty, it is surprising to many that Congress would abdicate their role in determining the specifics of agreements that may have far reaching implications for their constituents."

Why is it surprising? Gives them less work to do! They're all pro-business, which is the reason they're in office. Whether or not they agree with tighter gun laws, or minimum wage, or black/gay rights, or abortion, or equality of any sort etc...those aren't interesting to people in power other than as something they can use to sway voting voters on any given election. These people don't give a fuck about you in any other way, and in any case, stuff like copyright etc is just not of interest to most people; there's simply no votes in it.

If they want to make a profit they need to roll their sleeves up and get to work. How do other people make money from my site after my death? I'll give 'em my credentials and they can do what I've been doing. Next.

How is this any different to a newspaper reporting on, say, increased drug dealing in a named part of london? "But people are going to go there and buy drugs now they've read about it in the paper". Yes, but they were already doing that.

I wonder how a law which tried to prevent such reporting - assuming said interference of the state was legal and desirable - would look, and how it would differ from censorship performed in more embarrassingly run countries.

No, if you're obese you risk a lot more than "a few" (what is that? 2? 3? 5?) years. It puts extra stress on just about every part of your body especially, crucially, your heart. 1 in 5 americans die from obesity related illnesses. People eating obviously unhealthy foods watching the news and worrying about Al Queda when there's a 9/11-sized death toll every day from what they're eating.
