I remember this from childhood and tried to find it several times. Nice story. I think of it often when certain software systems I work on become overly complex.

Read the wikipedia article on Ratcliffe and see if he is such a great source for your rebuttal.

But even if this is not Russia material, the NY Post story is very suspect. Even the WSJ wouldn't touch it.

Social media is a very toxic force in our society. I applaud Twitter for taking these very modest steps to correct the flow of propaganda. I'm sure Hannity and Fox are shocked that Twitter actually has a spine. They weren't expecting that.

Well the fact is the NY Times story is probably accurate and the NY Post story is extremely suspect.

Twitter made a journalistic decision not to spread trash, possibly from Russia, that could have a real impact on our election result. Tough call, but the right call. If twitter sees itself as having some sort of moderator role than it has to make these judgement calls.

Other outlets didn't amplify the Hunter Biden laptop story either. Even conservative outlets like the Wall Street Journal decided it was too sketchy to spread.

Twitter is trying to avoid being a platform for conspiracy theories and foreign intelligence agencies. It has to act.

I used to be proud of our flag and would display it. Now (past 3 years) it has morphed into a symbol of hate and oppression. When I see armed 'protestors' terrorizing a state legislature and waving the flag, then the flag is no longer a symbol of freedom but of intimidation.

Great! The more people strike, the more we'll get the kind of change we need.

Trade is one area where the president can act independently and assertively regardless of any 'deep state' (if such a thing even exists). So this trade war was initiated by Trump and his inner circle of advisors. The trade war is not the only thing impacting the yield curve inversion, but it is a real factor.

Very predictable article from the WSJ.

They hammer these 2 points relentlessly year after year: Tax cuts for the rich are good for the economy. A minimum wage for the poor is bad for the economy.

Of course they are only interested in what's good for all, and not what is good for their wealthy readership.

Please.

How much are we all going to have to suffer before our governments actually take constructive action on the climate. Not to mention personal action as well.

I don't get the point of splitting hairs on the terms "climate" vs "weather".

However, the term 'global warming' should be avoided in favor of 'climate change', for obvious reasons.

There is something they/we can do: vote for candidates who actually take the threat of climate change seriously.

What's wrong with this government? The policy in these cases amounts to this: 'We will kill illegal immigrants'.

A very enjoyable article.

Nothing like a bunch of privileged computer geeks laughing at the 'help' that isn't getting paid. And mocking them because they feel insecure dealing with all the hostility every day on the job.
