No dispute that it's clever and entertaining. These are undesirable qualities in a reliable source of information.
Can you imagine reading a scientific journal in which the data narrative was deliberately engineered to keep you guessing until the conclusion? You would be right to raise eyebrows at a publication that is investing in your attention rather than its own accuracy.
There's no dire consequence here, it's just slightly dystopian that US presidential elections are unapologetically leveraged as a vehicle for mass entertainment by the press itself.
Don't want to pay for engineering work? You can get it for free!
All you need is to rack up a decade of experience, then put in 60 hours a week plus 20 hours of professional development to keep current on the latest technologies. If you're reading this you already have everything you need.
What, that doesn't sound very appealing? Alright, here's my card.
The tenth time this caused me to lose data and when my home server shut itself down and failed to boot, I set my internet connection to "metered", which Windows graciously seems to have respected.
Now I don't get any Windows updates, but the possibility of joining a botnet is preferable to the certainty that Windows will ruin my work.
I'm glad that Microsoft is making the internet a safer place.
Have you considered outsourcing? Hire a few more more smart people to activate their unlimited vacations. Split the winnings. Imagine the cash if you did it recursively!
First, he hasn't been charged. Second, he faces the threat of extradition and execution if he answers the call to be questioned on Swedish soil. Third, the UK has spent millions each year to make sure he doesn't get away.

You might be able to argue that Facebook-style interaction replacing face-to-face meeting is a bad thing, but you can't argue it's something nobody wants.
Countless technologies, including the internet and social media, have become augments and indeed sometimes substitutes for human contact. Some of the biggest companies in the world have been built on those technologies.
Why does VR need to be solitary and why does it need to be any different?
> Actually, the point of the app store was distribution. That's what the 30% cut was for IIRC.
Nobody was paying Apple 30% because that was cheaper than distributing yourself. They paid 30% because without paying that their app wouldn't get discovered, by design.
Now Apple has decided 30% only buys you the privilege of being able to pay more to be discovered.
