> That sounds like a lot of work.

My bank has a browser plugin that can create virtual cards with just a few clicks.

This isn't the case for me, it would take me quite a bit of time over a period of several weeks to update all of the places i use my card if I were using the same number everywhere and it was compromised. I handle a lot of billing. I've had cards compromised at least three times in the past and it's very unpleasant. (for me)

"My Elixir was Scala" "I would not recommend Elixir or Scala"

It's not entirely clear whether your experience is only with Scala or whether you've used both. If it's the former then I'd suggest that others try Elixir for themselves rather than take a recommendation based on experience with another language.

Goodness. No need to quote them. They're responding to an article _on that very topic_ and framing it as a matter of opinion.

If it was meant to be some general snark about censorship then so be it, but the execution was poor and you're being quite disingenuous in claiming not see any connection.

Have a good one.

Please, do clarify what they meant then.

As I see it, they suggested that removing content denying the Holocaust was telling someone what opinions to have on the matter. The Holocaust is not a matter of opinion, it is a fact.

Agreed. This sudden flurry of long-called for action is surely in their own self-interest. They're expecting a blue wave and regulations.

You think there's some kind of debate or question around the existence of the Holocaust?

If holocaust denial, flat earthers, plandemic, and qanon is the kind of stuff we get when FB does nothing, then I'll take my chances on them removing some content, thanks.

Besides, with a disinterested moderator you don't automatically get pure free speech. Others step in to influence the system, to push their "truth" to their benefit.
