Love this idea, very useful.

Couple little bugs/notes I noticed: The position titles are appearing twice, and my google seems to think this page is written in Slovak? And keeps offering to translate it...

Thanks for creating!


ah man, ill fix that (when i return from work :-D )

thx for trying.


This raises some really good points! Though I think there is something to be said for a language that is so easy for newcomers to learn and see results.


I agree, it seems to me most people would only want to use one or a small selection of these, so it would be much more useful to have the ability to easily grab a hamburger's code individually.


How is it that "city officials acknowledge that New Orleans simply does not have the resources to enforce this rule — given the 2,400 to 4,000 short-term rental listings on various services", but they had the resources to find those numbers?


Search "New Orleans" on a series of short-term rental sites, add numbers together, grab a cup of coffee, it's still 8:59 am?


The same way I don't have time to collect a sample of every beetle in existence, but do know that there are about 400,000 species of beetle: I asked Google and it told me the answer.


I think this article leaves out a major question of whether or not people feel like being social. Some people like talking to people when they have a problem or question, some people have a strong resistance to explaining their problem on the spot to a stranger.


Perhaps this could serve as a helpful middle-man and offer a compromise to those who feel strongly either way.


I agree with this. The company has many other ways of expressing their beliefs, but calling the code specifically a form of speech feels like a stretch. Overall I am on Apple's side of this. But while this article makes an interesting argument, I just don't think I buy it.


Completely agree! Where's the data? How many people were surveyed? These statements are too strong to evaluate without the proper context.


Very informative, thanks for the summary!


Did anyone else open this in chrome and get an error that the plugin wasn't supported?
