I see that as a feature. Templates should not do much logic, so it's a good idea that the templating language is simple. But you can always switch it for Jinja2, just a line in the settings file.

That's a long story in both cases. For the Tibet case, a great book about the history of China-Tibet relations and the role the British played in it is "The Snow Lion and the Dragon", free to read online: https://

They are not there to treat COVID-19, but to lower the "day to day load" of hospitals, so the hospitals have more capacity for COVID-19 patients. At least that's what they said on PBS Newshour.

No idea where you got that information. Testing in Germany started very late, but was then increased rapidly. As of today, Germany has done 1,317,887 tests. The US: 3,029,979 tests, Italy: 1,073,689 tests. (Source: https://www.wo

Not really. Its just a number in the books. Whoever made that decision decades ago, got it right, luckily. But that's about it. Had this virus affected the kidneys instead of the lungs, the outcome would have been way different. Also,

Yep, that's the story the media here tells. Of course. "We are so exceptional, we Germans." In reality, we had just four times more ventilators available than any of the larger countries around us, so we never hit the "n

We were mostly lucky to have about four times as many ventilators as France or Italy. The numbers I read in two different sources: Germany has about 20,000 ventilator places, while France, Italy, Spain, and UK have about 5,000 each. So in G

Uighurs are not persecuted "because they are Muslim". Hui, the second largest Chinese ethnic group after Han, are Muslim too. And they are not persecuted in any way. Uighurs are persecuted for the same reason the CCP tries to dest

Then again, why shouldn't it be ending with "in Rust" (or "in Nim" or "in Go", etc)? After all, HN has a focus on technology and programming. So it seems somewhat natural that readers here will be interest

What?? Can anybody explain to me (non American) why a fruit is offensive? And why people who find a fruit offensive are taken seriously?

"Interdependence" was a nice theory, but it seems to have it's limitations.

I very much agree about the last part. That is where the real catastrophe will likely happen, if there is no cure or vaccine found soon. But there is little that can realistically be done about it.

Even more absurd: if every person was legally required to wear a mask in public, the shutdown could be far less strict and many businesses could open again.

Sadly, that is very likely a main reason. Political discussion isn't so much about the exchange of views anymore, but about "winning" and "destroying" the other side. And there is a reason for that. There is an inte

No, I mean simple face masks that every single person must wear so they don't spread the virus in case they have be it. Very simple machines to produce these things.

That's really just the result of the decreasing trust within society. "Bowling Alone" is a good book that tries to explore the underlying reasons for this development, that started some time in the 1960s. The current "wa

I don't get it. How long can it take it build machines that produce masks? It's been weeks with this shortage. By now, there should be some production lines that spit out a couple of million a day off these things.

As long as everybody who has even a question about the topic is publicly yelled at and insulted, there will be many people who will simply ignore the topic. The main reason global warming isn't taken more seriously is because of the wa

Of course it does, at least in the West. Maybe not a perfect meritocracy, but that is... or rather was, the ideal to strive for.

You are right, we are in 2020 :D October last year was the first presentation of the new design, a year before that was the presentation of the previous design, together with the "Dear Moon" mission.
