Re:How WhatsApp Destroyed a Village on Monday September 10, 2018 @12:31AM (#17949392)

As mentioned in the article "Mob lynching isn’t a new phenomenon in India. According to some reports, there were more than 2,000 lynchings in India between 2000 and 2012 — well before WhatsApp was around."

I agree that WhatsApp has the potential to exacerbate such issues.

Does it mean that if I go pro now, I pay USD 19.99 only during the first year and then USD 29.99 from second year onwards?

Re:Why did Git become so popular? on Friday November 30, 2012 @01:51PM (#4854758)

I agree with you. Even though BitBucket allowed private repositories for free, their poor usability and interface kept users away. GitHub is not just Git. GitHub would have become popular due to its ease of use and cool user interface even if it was based on Mercurial (hg) or, may be, even Darcs. Bitbucket's latest design is good but has arrived later than expected.
