Sounds like you yourself are dismissing reality just so you can feel comfortable supporting a particular candidate or political view. I find it very disconcerting that a small violent leftist sect of the democratic party has been able to gain such a voice by bullying and character assassinations.
1. Most likely absolutely not. 2. That's...not a rumor but you don't have to accept the reality.
The fact that Schmidt obviously has ties to Google brings up the question of whether or not Google resources and user data would be used to help create such a thing.
Honestly, the political aspect is quite minor compared to the the tech aspect.
On another note, my original post included the suggestion that the Clinton campaign hire low wage workers. Implying their political passion would allow them to pay low wages. In my opinion, that manipulation is horrible.
Both of those topics seem like something the hn community would like to discuss. Unfortunately, it seems mods/admin/whoever are letting their political biased rise up above login and quality conversation.
If nothing else, it seems like a fantastic ad platform addition.
The screen.
Not sure if anyone listened to Satya's closing comments but they sounds eerily similar to something Jobs would say.
Either way, good for Microsoft on putting out a product for the high end creative segment.
If there actually is evidence, it's not public.
In my opinion, the "RUSSIANS WILL KILL US ALL AND TRUMP IS BEST FRIENDS WITH PUTIN" meme is nothing but a scare tactic to influence older voters who were around during the cold war. Obviously, I could be completely wrong. That's just my cynical opinion.

The Foval Group is contracted directly with the DNC. As far as anyone knows, Trump has never paid anti-Semitic or racist protesters to literally cause physical harm to people at Hillary rallies.
Edit: Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to make excuses for the words Trump has spoken, words are EXTREMELY important, but the level corruption inside the Hillary campaign is on a completely different level than things Trump says. Remember, actions speak louder than words. With Trump, all we have right now are words. With Hillary, we have actions. What I am seeing right now is one candidate being exposed for massive corruption while another candidate is promising to clean up the corruption in US politics and essentially make it illegal for politicians to become lobbyists. That, in my opinion, is very important.
Edit2: Also, on the topic of voter fraud https://d1sb17b1leotpq.cloudfront.net/rigging-election-%E2%8...
No, the fact that he is supporting a republican means he can be bullied. The tolerant left is on some radical moralistic high ground right now and it's far more dangerous than any words Trump has said.
When the campaign of a presidential nominee (Hillary) is recruiting the homeless and mentally ill to cause violence at Trump rallies, simply condemning and attacking someone for having different political views is all but normal.
First message: "Initiating mandatory inappropriate content scan" Second message: "Inappropriate content found...adding to log." Third message: "More inappropriate content found...adding to log." Fifth message: "User ID and Name added to log. Transferring to central administration offices."
The look on some people's face was priceless haha.
Soon they got wise to my ways and the gig was up.
I then found some Novell app that was installed on every computer that allowed the exact same thing but made it even easier! I think there was a list of names that I could select and then send a message. That didn't last long though. It was soon too blocked.
Any teachers out there? Don't let your students get bored.
Edit: I also just remembered each student had a personal network drive that they could access on any computer. Each student got something like 250mb or something like that. When you logged in as normal, you could obviously only access your drive and no one else's drive. I can't remember how but I figured out how to access other people's drive. The great thing was, I had read/write access :/ I could put anything in anyone's shared drive.
Come to think about that...I was a turd in high school.

This is what you get when people think with their emotions instead of logic. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Q: In Ellen Pao's op-ed in the Washington Post today, she said "But to attract more mainstream audiences and bring in the big-budget advertisers, you must hide or remove the ugly."
How much of the push toward removing "ugly" elements of Reddit comes from the motivation to monetize Reddit?
A: Zero.

His reply currently has -1022 points. The censorship of Reddit for advertisement purposes has been a topic of discussion in a select few subreddits for quite awhile. It looks like the rest of reddit is finally realizing what is going on.
I don't have anything against it, people have to make money and with free services like reddit, the users are the product that is sold to advertisers.
What I don't understand is, why not just admit it? From my ~20 years of internet usage, I have learned the one constant is you never lie to the internet.
Also, from the list of prohibited content:
>Anything that harasses, bullies, or abuses an individual or group of people
This sounds like a rule that some teenager made up for guild forums. How in the world does Huffman think using something so vague as an actual punishable rule will turn out well?
Anyway, good luck to Huffman he is going to need it. I feel like voat.co is going to see a very huge increase in numbers during the next few months.
The first rule of the internet is you don't censor the internet.
To answer your question, there are probably many reasons, but one reason is because corporations are paying politicians. Here is a story from The Guardian that explains the payoff http://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/may/27/corporations...
Also, here is another story from the Huffington Post that describes the corporate influence on the TPP. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dave-johnson/now-we-know-why-h...
One last comment, while it is indeed up to our politicians to vote yay or nay on this, it is absolutely up to the people to keep our politicians accountable. Right now, the American people are for more concerned about feelings and witty social media posts to care about the TPP. When Americans stop caring about politicians and stop holding politicians accountable, it's quite easy for them to pull something like the TPP.
Either way, it's cool seeing Amazon offer this to people who are interested.
