In the 1980s and 90s, knowing about computers was also a way for kids to "rebel against old people". It was us who could teach our teachers how to use and program a computer, not the other way around.

That's gone now. Today, config.sys is something "old people" talk about, why would a kid learn /that/?

Not having useful drugs against bacterial infections has killed many more people in the past than all violent governments combinded. Because bacteria infections where the number one killer for centuries.

Its a giude about web UI best practices, and the icons symbolizing the different topics are not clickable?

Besides, I didn't even notice that some of the headlines/h2s in the subsequent pages are actually clickable.

Then, they actually enlosed their <video> elements inside a <a> tag. So now, when I click on the controls of a video, it will open the linked page. No way to use the video's controls without leaving the page I am reading.

Three basic errors found in under a minute on a simple text site. I don't think I want to take any UI design advice from that person.

This seems like some guy who's AdSense account got banned and now he's trying to take his revenge.

If there is any proof, just go to some good journalist, like Snowden did. The journalist will know how to proceed about publishing things for maximal media attention and impact on public opinion.

So, table tennis table? Chess board?

Yep. Problem is, there are no schools around.

Just back from East Africa, and plain HTML is really useful there. Never was able to open G+ and always used the offline version of Gmail.

Very true.

Don't judges feel somewhat stupid sentencing people to "100 years" of something?

> THE PROBLEM WITH LITTLE WHITE GIRLS

After a year in East Africa, that was one of the things I noticed here: they always come in pairs of 20-year-old white girls. Except for South East Asia, many more young men there.

> $3000 bought us a week at an orphanage

That can actually cause children being obducted or "borrowed" to staff orphanages for white Voluntourists.

> Our mission while at the orphanage was to build a library.

And another 10 African carpenters who lost a job to those white Santa-Clauses.

> have a camp run and executed by Dominicans

Good luck. I have never seen any organization actually run locally. Sure, it often looks like it is, but if you digg a little deeper, you always find at least one Westener (or local who lived half their life in the West) making sure that people actually do things and not just spend the money and idle. But there maybe one such organization, somewhere, I just haven't found it yet.

I thought Google+ was proof of that.

Comparing it to the GDR ("East Germany") would be more apropriate, I guess. And you'd avoid Godwin.

> but it will make men much more considerate

Yey, the sexism here.

Why didn't he just click "block" and wait for normal people to contact him? There are probably some idiots who jump onto every new profile that pops up. Once blocked, it will become much easier.
