Can someone tell me how marijuana is currently treated by the police in New York? According to the article, New York has "long one of the nation’s most punitive states for those caught using or dealing drugs", but according to Wik

On the topic of marijuana, the US is more liberal than most European countries. In exactly two European countries, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic, can you obtain marijuana for medical purposes without risk of a fine or in the worst

I was shocked by MySQL-python not supporting Python 3 as well, but then I discovered that there are several better alternatives to MySQL-python that do support it, such as pymysql. AFAIK it's 99% compatible with MySQL-python.

Somewhat related: where can I buy laptop-sized (13 inches and up) LCD screens that I can connect to a Raspberry Pi? I looked at eBay a while ago, and all I found was replacement screens for laptops, which neither have connectors that work w

Oddly, both Bazaar, Git and Mercurial were created around March/April 2005. Why the sudden appearance of popular DVCSs around that time, and why did Bazaar fall behind the other two in popularity?

Why did you use Bitstamp when you were not in Europe? For me, in Europe, transferring money to Bitstamp was free. It took a couple of days, but that's fine. I'm assuming there are exchanges in your region that are cheaper to trans

In what universe does Python and Ruby's alternative implementations have significant market share?

I wonder if any European venture caps will make a similar investment in Bitstamp. Bitstamp is not only the most mature European exchange, but unlike Coinbase (which can only transfer money to and from American bank accounts) people can use

This guy is missing the fact that in a lot of European countries, and elsewhere in the world, carriers mean squat . The carrier is often simply the provider of the SIM card you put in the phone, so carrier support is in no way needed for a

In Norway, it and its knockoffs are widely available in ethnic stores, but the price is closer to $8 than $3 for a big bottle.

The Python Language Reference is only 100 or so pages. I'm not sure how different the PLR is from a "real" spec, however.

Too bad it doesn't have list comprehensions. That's something I sorely miss when writing most mainstream languages apart from Python. (I know CoffeeScript has them.)

Are there usually this many backwards-incompatible changes? In the past I've usually been able to upgrade Django without having to do any significant changes in the code.

Is this supposed to install on Windows? I get a whole bunch of errors when I run "npm install -g vnc-over-gif", most of which seem to be related to node-gif. Edit: Apparently they're related to unistd.h, which doesn't exist on Windows platf

Be careful with the "as a European". Eggs are sparkling white in many European countries.

I don't think Norway is a good example. More women than men study Chemistry and Biology in Norway -- STEM isn't just mathematics and physics.

So you're angry because others did similar work before TBL, and because TBL is the one who got famous, you think that he is a manipulative sociopath. I see.

I don't even know what you're trying to say. That TBL is a fraud? Why so bitter?

The most well run communist state was probably Yugoslavia. I can see a few things which made it more successful than other communist states: it did not cut itself off from the world as a whole or associate itself with a much bigger and more

Should one of the parties also support slavery just so that you have a choice? Eventually an issue reaches a point where the vast majority of the population supports an issue (such as keeping slavery illegal), and when that happens it shoul

Physics perfectly well knows what time is. This is an issue with keeping track of time in terms of seconds, minutes, hours and days, and has nothing to do with not knowing what time is.

I wonder why it was necessary for consumer modems to make these sounds. It's not really useful for debugging, so in the end it was just an annoying sound. Yes, I know you could often turn it off, but as far as I know the sound was always tu

It's not just a browser front-end, it's also a browser engine. If they acquired Opera and pushed it to increase its market share Facebook could gain a lot of influence on HTML and the adoption of web technologies.
