I was right :) They ARE Turkish. Again, censorship is rampant in the opposition as well...

1) All of the recordings? 2) Again, for all the recordings? 3) I checked it out. They are saying that they do not know if the recordings are authentic. Since accused can not provide the original recordings actually there's no point even seeking for such forensic examination. It has to be inconclusive, that is why illegally obtained wiretappings are rendered always invalid by the courts. In that case spreading recordings that can not stand such scrutiny is an attempt of defamation, and illegal. 4) I can not check that. 5) What prosecution? Does it have a name/date?

Again I am against the blockage. However we need try to understand what could have pushed the Turkish Courts to take such grave measures.

What I told are possible explanations and scenarios. I took the side of the 1st option which is what you defend as well. We are not in a position to be the judge ourselves. When we say something it needs to explain something. That's what I tried yet you downvoted, which unfair and mean. I stand by what I think of you.

So far this comment got downvoted twice. I bet those who downvote are Turkish. They are not explaining why did they downvote. They are as good as those that blocked Twitter in Turkey.

There are two sides of the coin.

1) In this day and age shutting down Twitter wholesale is simply a silly and undemocratic move. Information can not be blocked and will find its way around anyway. Like many people I am against it.

2) There is a blatant violation of personal rights of people by fabricated phone-tapes. You take it to the court and court decides that these are illegal, and ask the service provider (in this case Twitter) to take down those specific twits. They don't comply. What do you do?

Say there's a link for a fabricated phone conversation of Obama betraying the country disseminated using Twitter. The administration take it to the court and win the legal battle. Could Twitter afford not to comply? Can this happen?

This is the gist of the problem people are having over there.

Well said.

Somebody down voted a genuine question, and left no comment at all for why did it? There's no corner of the world short of mean people.

Forgive my ignorance, but why the plane could not fly straight rather than north or south that is put forth as the only options? Straight is as suicidal as going south, still a vast ocean ahead.

Most of those recruiters do not deserve to be employed in the first place. They lack basic empathy towards job seekers. They talk like they own you. I have not met any of them yet that does not meet this description unfortunately. I think having some power on other people's lives corrupt them.

one should hate something when that thing is something he dislikes but most importantly it is forced on him or her. I am criticizing only the title, he might be right about these tools, but using agitative words does not make an argument better.

There's no democracy only a shadow of it. We are pushed and shoved and most of the time did it ourselves voluntarily after listening patriotic brainwashing. We are ruled by elites, by big money, period. Worse is some really think that they own the country. I remember in a movie (can't remember now) a guy asks Matt Damon, Italians has this, that owns this, what you own? And he answers "we own the country". Those NSA people think exactly that way, they think they own you. Big companies think they can bend any rule. So don't expect anything change much for the benefit of the "taxpayer".

I find it extremely weird that these agencies need to hide what they are doing. Why do it in secret if this is democracy? What is wrong with what they are doing if they are not harming people? Gathering intelligence is their job, we need it. Bogeys know that too. But still they need to do it in secret. Then there must be something wrong with not what they do, but what they do with it.

would you report revenue. I always wonder how much people are making from these games. Of course if you don't mind.

I first try to find a book without paying. If I read a good chunk of it, if it is any good I buy the book. Otherwise I would have to pay a fortune for all the books I browse and probably may not end up reading.

Pictures remind me of 2nd rate action movies. Probably because those movies are closer to real life than the 1st rate Hollywood action movies.

what if that government who could tap into fiber was not US government? I think any communication outside the confines of corporate buildings should be encrypted.

IMHO, It would be better to seperate two distinct things into two seperate articles. Your view in women in computing and intro to clojure.

what does it mean?

I wonder why somebody promotes this person out of the blue and becomes an HN material? Yes it is an anniversary but why not do it while he was vertical last year or the previous year. I gather from the comments that his achievements are controversial as well. That is why I asked this question.

I liked the idea of channels with colors and connecting components with it. Although it is primitive as it is, if it evolves it can be used as a great mock-up tool at the least. It is mistake to consider it for people who program for a living. Let's not shoot down ideas/concepts/proof of concepts.

I like your board. I would like to give it a try. Could you explain difference between "Actionable" and "Daily Goal". Aren't all "daily goals" are "actionable" since you transferred them from "weekly sprint" or "backlog".

All these articles are written to market something, in this case the author himself.

Who said that eating pork is good and allowed to swallow in the first place.

Spending money is as much a skill as making it, and I do not mean only investing or the pleasures of this world provides.

Resistance is futile. (unfortunately)

Interesting, I do not see anything other than a link to github page. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/50999755/Screen%20Shot%2...

I don't know, it just sounds a sensational story to draw readership. Yeah, maybe he did it for couple of days/weeks, but doing this in a disciplined manner for a long time to earn measly couple of dollars does not make sense all.

Context of job constraining. I rather would follow my bliss, more rewarding in the long run.

Machine Learning. We will only have increasingly more data and we need to make good use of it. It's cool for the starter. It will take a lot of time to become good at it, so start now slowly, learning necessary tools, specific math subjects at least for the beginning.

He definitely lack the kind of ego of engineers of our times.

Good idea executed terribly.
