Bloomberg, July 11, 2016 : [^]Quote: Lawyers filed a $1 billion lawsuit against Facebook Inc., alleging it allowed the Palestinian militant Hamas group to use it as a medium to carry out attacks that killed four Americans and wounded one in Israel, the West Bank and Jerusalem.
“Facebook has knowingly provided material support and resources to Hamas in the form of Facebook’s online social network platform and communication services,” making it liable for the violence against the five Americans, according to the lawsuit sent to Bloomberg by the office of the Israeli lawyer on the case, Nitsana Darshan-Leitner.
Note: I present this merely as an observation of what I regard as an interesting development in our ever-more "digital" society; I do not post this to make any kind of statement of a "political" nature.

Considering the amout of censorship practiced by Facebook on everything pro-american, every lawsuit against them for NOT having practiced their censorship in other scenarios is well earned.
Either you are completely free, so to be able to motivate the lack of intervention, or you must intervene ALWAYS.

I suggest you discuss your political beliefs, and sentiments, about this type of thing in the SoapBox Forum.

Yep, maybe it's better - somehow I thought this WAS the SoapBox

Oracle has asked a judge -- again -- to throw out the verdict that found Google rightfully helped itself to Oracle programming code to create the Android operating system. If only they put half this effort into advancing Java...

ONE VOTE UP FOR YOU. Never mind just use scala??

I'm sure the Oracle lawyers are cringing over the insistence of upper management to keep beating this dead horse. There's only so many times you can whine at a judge before s/he files a complaint with the state bar. I suspect Oracle is about to get slapped around in court.

The concept of a code smell is, perhaps, one of the most evocative in our profession. The name itself has a levity factor to it, conjuring a mental image of one’s coworkers writing code so bad that it actually emits a foul odor. But the metaphor has a certain utility as well in the “where there’s smoke, there may be fire” sense. "Whoever smelt it, dealt it"

I wonder what code smell looks like for a scripting language.
 Never mind, a scripting language is, by definition, code smell.
