Time to stop reading this article anyway!

I hate the fucking news websites that make you press a "read more" button. Of course I want to read more, that's why I clicked on your fucking article!!

That moment when GitLab adds an article you wrote to their blog

They want to get that article 13 through...

Does your article require me to click "next page" 8 times to read the whole article?
if yes, then fuck you.

when demonstrating arrays, always call them ‘arr’ – it allows you to talk like a pirate

Always wanted to build a URL shortener. Guess what I'm building right now :D (next to working on a blog article)

Somehow this is making me very happy 😊

Oh my God! This is so amazing!

So I have to register in the website to view article in one single page. Otherwise the article is divided into multiple pages and I have click "next" couple of times to read the full article.

HAHAHAHA! Welcome to 2017.

Want me to NOT read your fucking article?

'Cause that's how you get me to NOT read your fucking article

This isn’t high school english class, you can skip the circle jerk introduction.

Yes, you fucking retards, I will read this article about logging in NodeJS when the cover photo

"I don't know..."

"I need an estimate."

"40 hours."

All I wanted is to read a fucking article.

The UX is stunning, my friends.. I can feel real PROs were on this. /s

## MOTHER FUCKERS!

A while a go in class we were told to look at this article about poor to stupid security... and my brain melted

No protesting for me today. Sorry.
if anything happens today however, I will create my own Tor exit node.
And you will be among the first to know about it.
Tor will be the next uncensored web. And I will strive to protect it.
At least that's something I can do from home, regardless of time zones and timing altogether.

I feel like we can't save the internet anymore. But we can create another one.
The darkweb is waiting for you.
It's only the Tor Browser away.

"To get access click 'NO' in the 'was this article helpful section' and open a support ticket, making sure to mention the tool you are looking to get access to"

What fucking fresh hell is this? Why not have the article, contain the fucking link to open the ticket.

You have intentionally put up a useless article, in order to hack your way around this stupid system.

At the top of the hole sit a privileged few
making mockery of the vermin in the lower zoo
turning beauty to filth and greed...
by passing shit like article 11, 13, and 17.

I read an interesting article on internet.
Thought my friend would like it and sent a link to him.
-_-
I will never send anything to him again.

GDPR: great law, except for those who use technology (JS blockers, tracking protection, etc etc) to fight other technology (cookies, trackers, etc etc). Welcomed by the general public, but for content publishers it is a royal pain in the ass. Because did the EU provide non-legalese explanations as to how to become compliant? Of course they didn't. Why would they? But of course lawyers jumped on it like it's the best thing in the world. "GDPR-experts".

Now, article 11 and 13 again. Copyright law taken to ridiculous levels, impossible to implement, except for maybe Google, Microsoft and Facebook. Anyone else? Of course not. Again, a lot of money has to be involved with it. Does anyone want this thing? Of course not. And why the fuck is this still a thing even?! Did direct lobbying to the EU Parliament members a few months ago not teach them anything?! Senile pieces of shit. Should those old fucks really be able to decide about the future of the internet?

OH FUCK ARTICLE 13 COULD BE HAPPENING
goodbye github.... goodbye memes....

Idk how common this is but my first article got approved.

Kudos to sites that take 3 hours to load ads before the actual article appears! You are the reason why hippos pee backwards.Fuckers!

After article 13,

Stackoverflow be like:
[this answer can’t be displayed because of copyright infringement]

China tried to censor the internet and they failed.
EU approves article 11 & 13 and everything is now blockee in EU.

China should learn from EU parliament on how to censor the internet without the need of any firewall

When article 17 hits

"wow I love this programming article, how do I... tell the author or something, can I comment or... what's this, clapping hands, ok... fine...... ah fuck"

Fuck yeah Article 13 is coming!

I saw an article saying, What Programming Language Should I Learn First? 2017

It suggested, JavaScript!

What do you think, yes or no?

ARTICLE 13 IS HAPPENING!!!
BYYEE GITHUUUB
YAAAAYYY
KILL ME PLEASEEEE

So hello guys, I just published my first article, it might not be that good or good at all, but heck it feels great.

Anyway, see ya :p

Making subtle and insignificant changes in every section of the article draft is the academic equivalent for urine marking.

I don’t live in the EU, but hearing all the complaints about article 11, 13, etc. is really vexing me.
Article 11 in particular.

Why the hell would you force companies to pay taxes for linking? Why the hell would you tax websites for including sources? Do you want no sources? Do you want misinformation to become a bigger problem? What the hell is wrong with whoever proposed that bill!?!?

The internet is a place for relative freedom. A place of message boards and communities we’ve created. To impede that (beyond making sure it doesn’t facilitate hanious crimes) is just plain wrong.

Maybe this ever tightening straight jacket of surveillance and restrictive legislation is pushing the internet in the right direction. We might end up with a proper free and anonymous interwebz.

Personally, I'll start worrying when they ban the operation of Tor nodes... And that will probably pass easily since regular folk don't know the implications. The smear campaign will be ez mode: just call it a hotbed of pedophilia and criminal activity and push the new laws as something along the lines of Put an End to Naughty Individuals and Scumbags (PENIS) act. Done and done.

I mean... if they can threaten to take away the memes without being stopped then there's nothing they can't do, lol.

Now the new EU copyright directive is getting closer, Google does A/B testing to comply with article 11.

Wow. Can't access a news article in an incognito tab without logging in or subscribing. This happened in Firefox and Chrome in mobile and desktop views on Android.

Article 13 has been FUCKING PASSED. SHIT SHIT FUCKEDDY FUCK ING FUCK-CHRIST ON A FUCKING FUCK BYCICLE MADE OF FUCKING ARSNIC COVERED LEGO BRICKS WITH PINS INSTEAD OF BUMPS BEING RIDDEN BY THE DECREPIT CORPSES THE EU CALLS A FUCKING GOVERNMENT!!

Browses a news article on mobile phone. Site asks, if it should switch to the mobile version of that site. I click yes. Frontpage loads instead optimized for mobile with my news article nowhere to find. Dafuq?

"You should blog as a developer."

Ain't nobody got time foh dat.

Regarding Article 13 (or 17 or wherever it moved to now)… Let's say that the UK politicians decide to be dicks and approve the law. After that, we need to get it engineered in, right? Let's talk a bit about how.. well, I'd maybe go over it. Been thinking about it a bit in the shower earlier, so.. yeah.

So, fancy image recognition or text recognition from articles scattered all over the internet, I think we can all agree.. that's infeasible. Even more so, during this lobby with GitHub and OpenForum Europe, guy from GitHub actually made a very valid point. Now for starters, copyright infringement isn't an issue on the platform GitHub that pretty much breathes collaboration. But in the case of I-Boot for example, that thing from Apple that got leaked earlier. If that would get preemptively blocked.. well there's no public source code for it to get compared against to begin with, right? So it's not just "scattered all over the internet, good luck crawling it", it's nowhere to be found *at all*.

So content filtering.. yeah. Nope, ain't gonna happen. Keep trying with that, EU politicians.

But let's say that I am a content creator who hates the cancer of joke/meme because more often than not it manifests itself as a clone of r/programmerhumor.. someone decides to freeboot my content. So I go out, look for it, find it. Facebook and the likes, make it easier to find it in the first place, you dicks. It's extremely hard to find your content there.

So Facebook implements a way to find that content a bit easier maybe. Me being the content creator finds it.. oh blimey! It can't be.. it's the king of freebooting on Facebook, SoFlo! Who would've thought?! So at that point.. I'd like to get it removed of course. Report it as copyright infringement? Of course. Again Facebook you dicks, don't make it so tedious to fill in that bloody report. And look into it quickly! The videos those SoFlo dicks post is only relevant in the first 48h or so. That's where they make the most money. So act more quickly.

So the report is filled, video's taken down.. what else? Maybe temporarily make them unable to post as a bit of a punishment so that they won't do it again? And put in a limit to the amount of reports they can receive. Finally, maybe reroute the revenue stream to the original content creator instead. That way stolen content suddenly becomes free exposure! Awesome!

*suddenly realizes that I've been talking about the YouTube copyright strike system all along*

… Well.. maybe something like that then? That shouldn't be too hard to implement, and on YouTube at least it seems to be quite effective. Just imagine SoFlo and the likes that are repeat offenders, every 3 posts they get their account and page shut down. Good luck growing an audience that way. And good luck making new accounts all the time to start with.. account verification technology is pretty good these days. Speaking of experience here, tried bypassing Facebook's signup hoops a fair bit and learned a bit about some of the things they have red flags on, hehe.

But yeah, something like that maybe for social media in general. And.. let's face it, the biggest one that would get hurt by something like this would be Facebook. And personally I think it's about time for that bastard company to get a couple of blows already.

What are your thoughts on this?

So management posted an article "10 signs you suck at your job" in the lunch room. It's pretty passive-aggressive; I wish I could find the link to it somewhere to post here.

Would you post the similar article "10 signs you're not management material" in there as well?

I miss page inspect tool in mobile browsers. I came across this website that is forcing me to login, in order to read it's article.

I read an article that says stress balls are far less effective for stress relief than punching your PM on the face.

They should have included a warning...

Found this in some knowledge base article of a big software company.

I'm gonna use this as my automatic email response for work.

So instead of crying, what if we create a new open internet? We could call it NettyMcNetface (NMN). 🌐 It'd be free for everybody and open for all content under all existing and new open licences for free and paid content, for personal and business use.

The only hiccup: it must be completely disconnected from the current internet. A complete reboot on a new physical network.

Does article 13 apply to that too?

Oh, and I bet there's already some initiative involving an alternative open network. Any tips?

when you're reading an article on a site and a big pop up shows with no way out. then you don't know where is the thing you're reading so u just close the tab. that's productivity.

A bit confused !
Must prepare an article about network pentest and defense .
Since its a very wide topic and I've been told not to just mention tools , I'm confused about categorizing these tests !
Also the footprinting stage is not likely to have any defense !(no attack is lunched yet :) )

So... Any idea?

Our Joomla-based site just got a redesign. The developer who did it did something wrong. Articles no longer are attached to their parent categories and are now all referenced at the root level in URLs.

I pulled up the 404 log and now see that some website or bot or whatever is hitting up each category for each article, which screws with our SEO 404 report in Google Search Console.

Which means I have to find a way to programmatically redirect every article within every category "up" a level to the root where each article is now found.

And I have no way of knowing which article belongs to which category anymore. Even if I did, a test shows that articles attached to categories still want to come up at the root level, not in their categories.

Joomla is G.A.R.B.A.G.E.

Omg guys !.Did u read the news ? There is article 13 . Europe goverment has agreed to put new law named article 13.It means we cant upload photos if they r not original ! Omg. What are we going to do about this article 13 ? Do we start a war ?.Hm?

Jo Guys... Article 11/13 may be coming. Your opinion?

What is with the current trend of hiding the content of the webpage that you have gone to visit under a 'continue reading' button on mobile?

For example, Huffington post article. Content all loads, then dissapears behind 'continue reading' button, showing only the first sentence.

I came here to read the article. I'm sure I want to continue reading..

Hi I just joined this great Community and here is my thoughts about programming tap "++" if you agree if not then change your mind.

For me programming is like becoming wizard of next generation. Like wizard you can control or create anything because in future you will find electronics containing programs written by a wizard (programmer). We are not people who can repair computer but greater then that because a pc is just a box without programs (software)
You are reading this article because you loves challenges and you are hard working too.

Article 13 has gone through.
If you have a startup idea, move outside the EU to avoid millions of dollars of copyright fines.

Get the memes, get tor, get vpns, research how people get around the great firewall of china, because the EU just asked china to hold its beer.

I pity whoever's job it is to implement this piece of shit.
