If it didn't matter, why is there such a big push to kill net neutrality. It matters. They want to do something they aren't allowed to do today, and doing something they aren't allowed to do today means its not in the interests of the Internet as a whole. Don't let this propaganda fool you.
Once you have clarified 'regulations', the parties involved will take advantage of them. This change is a clarification the other way that would explicitly allow activities that in the past were not encouraged.
Make your website of record your website. Make social media platforms and others (e.g. Google) secondary to that. Don't let Google and Facebook control how you build your website. I am amazed at companies that take their websites and subjugate them to their Facebook page. You may gain social attention but you are handing over control. Never, ever, ever say to contact me go to facebook.com/xxxx or my email address is xxx@gmail.com. Your site is yoursite.com and your email is youremail.com. Your login to the sites you build are email addresses, not tied to social media providers. The closed internet providers are enhancements to your sites. They do not take the place of your site. If you follow this philosophy, you are supporting the open internet. Own your .com. Don't let others own you by taking that from you.
Certs value, if any, are to show a very basic skill level, or starting point. That's it. If you are hiring someone just because they have a CISSP where another individual does not, you don't know what you are doing either.
Of course you should. You should be looking for a job you can grow into, not a job you fit perfectly today. Any company worth it's salt knows this, although some HR reps don't get the message. If they aren't interested in you because you don't match their unicorn list, it's probably not going to be a place you would enjoy working at.
Built something very similar for the web using widgets back in 2006-7, along the time twitter was taking off. iPhones were just coming on the scene and there was no app ecosystem yet so we built one of the most advanced flash widgets ever. It worked amazingly well, but we just couldn't get the traction needed at the time. Overall, i think the timing was off. I've seen many similar ideas over the years ,but yours is the closest to our original. I have years of thinking about this type of service under my belt so if you want to chat about some of the ideas we implemented beyond what you have now, let me know.
Where does it say that freedom of expression does not cover revenge porn? It's actually the opposite. There is a very, very small number of exceptions to freedom of speech and what Gawker was doing is not one of them.
Paying the legal bills for a plaintiff whose lawsuit advances your agenda is the definition of a proxy lawsuit. Also, the game ain't over till the fat lady sings. The case is still unresolved until all opportunities to appeal are exhausted. In my opinion, Peter is a jerk and an example of another wealthy person who likes living in and conducting business in America but won't support the values of America enshrined in our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
So now audio will be controlled by a company or copyrighted/patented protocol. This is really what they are after. If they could charge for the light streaming from your screen, they would. I can see Apple offering a dongle to let you plug in a normal headset and charging $30 for it. More crap to carry, more refuse in the landfills. If Apple really cared about the environment they would keep the audio jack in place. It's allows something with an earphone with 3 wires to plug in that gives awesome sound quality out (usually). How can you get more simple and elegant than that?
You have an explicit right to own a gun. You don't have a right to fly. Throw into the fact that anyone can be put on a no-fly list for any reason with no recourse and you have just given the government the opportunity and means to deny ANYONE ownership of a gun.
Doesn't the RSS icon in Firefox only show up when an RSS feed is present? Has Mozilla corrected their stats for that? https://heatmap.mozillalabs.com/mozmetrics/?os=all&color... Maybe it was only clicked by 7.3% of the users but 10% of the users went to a site that had an RSS feed available.
It sucks that this is being removed. All of the other browsers have it and so many websites have supported it. By removing it from easy access you discourage the use of an open standard. It is not just about who clicks on it. It is about who supports it. RSS is used by all kinds of applications and services and anything that discourages its easy usage makes the web a less open place. I can not imagine that there is a significant amount of code to make this work and I don't see how it is causing a reduction in the usage of Firefox. It definitely does not impact workflow but actually improves it. If Firefox is following the road of the bean counter then I think it is time to move on.
