People being contractually obligated to undergo medically unnecessary surgery is still an intolerable atrocity.
Well, yeah, of course they can. They can read the entire DOM, including the value of password fields. Were you expecting otherwise?
What's the difference?
Printers should probably be connected by USB for security reasons anyway.
By “user” I mean the person who is using the application.
Using exceptions for handling unexceptional errors (like invalid user input) is a footgun. You don't know when one might be raised, nor what type it will have, so you can easily forget to catch it and handle it properly, and then your app crashes.
We kinda do need him, though. Very few people are as intensely principled as he is on the subject of computing freedom, and without him anchoring the Overton window, there's nothing stopping the Bill Gateses of this world from moving it.
I think the problem there is that, for many years, nobody bothered to explain to him exactly why child porn is bad.
Most people observe that everyone else thinks it's bad and don't question it any further. That's not good enough for Stallman, though, and for good reason: expecting him to unquestioningly bow to peer pressure is an insult to his intelligence.
Someone did eventually explain the problem to Stallman. I don't know what exactly was explained, but my guess is that Stallman was told that child porn is non-consensual and therefore violates the child's privacy, similar to how revenge porn violates the subject's privacy. At any rate, after that discussion took place, Stallman did an about-face on the subject, and is now opposed to child porn like anyone else.
Moral of the story: taboos and peer pressure bad; logic and education good.
Hoping to see news that the US government has finally decided to stop the economy from melting down.
I keep being disappointed…
Aren't you supposed to be sword fighting on an office chair?
To be replaced by Nazis. A sad and embarrassing choice by the people of Finland.
