And I'm not discrediting the work or the fact that this is progress... I just don't think that the title of the post is entirely accurate. Mostly with respect to the "every" part.
This is the downside of free services. They can be easy to get started. But will bite back when they go out. It has been hard to trust Google after they took reader down.
Great news! Amazon will get into any kind of service that is part of an infrastructure. There are a one-stop shop of building blocks required to build a web service. Their inventory is only going to get diverse and bigger.
especially since their render engine is opinionated about how full-screen should work and other weirdness in managing pseudo elements and transform parents in layouts (i.e. anchor for relative is parent of the element they're attached not the element they're attached to)
But it is worthy of discussion around the issue of privacy to raise awareness. Current and past events serve as an example for us discuss and show that privacy is a human right that should not be compromised.
I have "after Snowden" begin to doubt that. Sure, there is a lot of people who say they support privacy. But then a lot of the industry nowadays is based on shuffling peoples data around. So I wonder how "deep" peoples convictions are or if it's just more out of convenience to avoid responsibility for their own activities?
Rarely is someone in technology upset over, say, the lack of use of encryption when sending e-mails. While when you talk to say lawyers or journalists, for which privacy is the basis of their activities, they are often quite upset over the tech industries cavalier attitudes.
More than anything I think you can't effectively defend something if you don't know the issues or peoples concerns. It's great that there is a lingering support of privacy from hackers subculture, but if you can't oppose someone saying "but terrorism" it might not be worth very much. It might actually be more damaging, because you don't see how you could be the "bad" guy (in terms of privacy).
Can you please share the story that led to weeks of debates but was so clear to Jessica? It is very interesting to see how insights or intuition can help make decisions.
This week's hottest language is SVIRFNEBLIN. It's got everything: privilege escalators, compile-to-malgeboge, mini-hdmi, and that thing where your types are all fragments of Sapphic erotic literature!
