I run a totally different stack, but by my count there at least 8 technologies that I use in most every web app (HTML, CSS, Javascript, a backend language, a front and/or backend framework, a relational database, NGINX, Linux). And tha

How about you worry about yourself and stop diagnosing people that choose to be with another person?

A lot probably. The US population seems to be totally unaware of what their military is really doing. The whole thing is obfuscated in a web of foreign governments, three-letter agencies, contractors and tech giants, endless acronyms and eu

Do you really think the war industry would just roll over while a pacifist won the US presidency? These people don't have the same boundaries as normal humans. The DoD has engaged in probably the most expensive propaganda campaign in h

It's not new, Dyncorp has been around since 1946. And the US-backed groups variously called paramilitaries, anti-communist insurgents, moderate rebels, etc. are essentially foreign-run PMCs by another name.

Are you aware of who Erik Prince and Stephen Feinberg are? You are essentially advocating for even more death and misery abroad in the short term, in the hope that the public's stance on the US military will change. It won't chang

Dyncorp should be mentioned in the headline too. From what I've been able to gather Dyncorp is still a much larger company than Blackwater and their history of war crimes is more extensive too.

I use gvim for big files and nano on servers, but for everything else I also use gedit. I have never liked any of the bulkier editors or IDEs.

That's because the tempo is static, and I don't think there's any "dither" so to speak on the placement of the notes (applying lag and lead, rubato, etc.). I enjoy what the author created a lot, because I like abstr

That's pretty much the key with this sort of thing. I've done very similar experiments and as long as you choose good source material, even fixed-length samples cut at random and then sequenced rhythmically will sound good. The au

The moral failure is on your part for desiring to restrict the freedom of others. It's people like you who don't really care that millions have been imprisoned over a personal choice. You are an authoritarian, which is fine, but s

All of those features can lessen ambiguity in other ways though, so that's probably the trade-off at work. Weak linguistic relativity is pretty well attested. I've seen people misattribute or assume qualities about unrelated entit
