  • I think that would have the same problem of cancel for the first button and a different name for the desired function on the next screen.

    Cancel (delete) -> Cancel (cancel deleting) / Confirm (confirm deleting)

    My suggestion is

    Discard (delete) -> discard (delete) / Cancel (cancel deleting)

  • I don't understand how your post refutes my argument. OP said millions play games, so if only one person screws up among those millions, it can't be the games fault. The argument can just as well be applied to Facebook and guns. Only a small fraction of those users become mass shooters.

    I'm not saying there isn't a problem with guns. I think America is mentally ill in it's relationship with guns.

    In response to your comment, if Activision was found to be taking money from the gun or military industry to market weapons through their games, do you think they should be partially liable? If I understand the lawsuit correctly, that is what this case is about.

  • It seems like your game defense also works for guns and Facebook?

    Things are rarely 100% causative. In all these cases, I think we have to ask if the trigger allows/pushes some percentage to an action. Then, is that percentage and action significant enough to act on. It's the same way we deal with medicines and carcinogens.

  • I met an interesting Argentinian girl through ICQ. A co-worker ended up getting their inbox filled with large attachments from an overseas office with fast internet. We were still on dial-up. We just had pop3 access, no online front end. I stayed in the office over night to download the files so the connection wouldn't be interrupted by someone else accessing the line. To pass the time, I downloaded ICQ and started chatting with the Argentinian girl. She introduced me to this song.

    Great memories.

  • The solar/battery stuff was just him saving an almost bankrupt company his cousins had. SpaceX and Tesla had both invested in the company, and he would have lost the money and like faced regulatory scrutiny had it went under.

    Hyperloop was his effort to disrupt California's high-speed rail plans.
