I disagree (but also disagree with using an executive order.)
Strictly speaking, if you curate otherwise legal content, you become a publisher and therefore become liable for that content. I think a reasonable compromise is that a site could delete content not germane to its purpose as long as it does so in a consistent manner.
The claim, however, that there is no evidence censorship is happening is laughable and easily disproved.

Primary, private e-mail address, known only to those close to me: +/- 20 e-mails a day, all real.
Secondary e-mail address, used for web-site subscriptions, etc: +/- 250 e-mails a day, +/- 20 real.
And, even though I'm ridiculously careful about personal information, I get SPAM in Italian, so at least one of the two Italian-language sites I interface with needs a kick up its privacy bunghole.
The amount of SPAM shooting around these days would have been as effective as DDoS attacks, 20 years ago.
[edit] Hmm. I thought I was in the Lounge. My mistake.

I could do that on the primary e-mail, but there wouldn't be much of a point to it.

Quote: the open source, cross-platform code editor that has become wildly popular in the development community.
Jeez! This is Visual Studio Magazine, I'd imagine that it's a site almost exclusively visited by people who already use Visual Studio, so is the sales blurb entirely necessary?
And no, the new icons will not change my life. I'd really rather that Microsoft devoted some of their precious time to improving SSMS rather than making cosmetic changes to VS.

To be fair VS Code does get frequent updates that are usually more than just cosmetic.

An amateur astronomer in Texas captured a rare sight earlier this week when an apparent meteor slammed into Jupiter’s thick upper atmosphere. "Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering kaboom!"

I find it highly worrying that it coincided with North Korean missile tests!

If they have missile technology that can hit Jupiter within a couple of hours of launch, we may as well give up now.

1st question - what is my ex-wife doing up by Jupiter?
2nd Question - How did she even get into space inthe first place? She wasn't exactly weightless down here...

Just because... I wanted to know how far away this was from the Big Red Spot, I ended up appreciating how big Jupiter really is.
Using good ole MS Paint:
1. The planet is approximately 420 pixels wide
2. The impact is approximately 250 pixels from the edge of the spot.
Using Wikipedia, I learned the radius of Jupiter is ~ 71,000km
I use my actual brain to calculate the diameter to be ~ 142,000 km head
I punched into MS Calc (25/42) * 142000 to guesstimate the impact was about 135,000 km away; or 85,000 miles away
That's one big rock

To reduce exposure to phishing email scams, organizations are relying more on collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams and Slack for corporate communication. Because the hackers would never consider using chat, would they?
|
|
|
|
|
How is it supposed to "reduce exposure" to the scams?
All it could possibly do is reduce the number of genuine e-mails, so, as a percentage, it would increase exposure!

MongoDB had better get their act together, or they'll lose the top spot.

Does anyone have a detailed writeup of how this works?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
