The problem is that the law tends to disagree on that one.

It shows both sides and they're important to consider. You don't need to be in favor of oil or any fossil fuel to see that there remains a vacuum that needs to be filled somehow.

Angela Merkel didn't decide to shift to wind and solar. The Atomaustieg (the decision to abandon nuclear power) was made in 2000 by a coalition of the social democrats and the greens. The movement that lead to this decision goes back t

Regular is actually incredibly useful because it allows you to confidently parse or validate (large amounts of) untrusted data without having to worry about DoS attacks. I'd argue that this is useful, even if you use it as part of a pa

You can actually quite easily add features to regular expressions, that are typically excluded while still being actually regular. Examples would be an `and` or a `not` operator.

Nobody just replaces people on the executive team, they leave, retire or fuck up and are let go. Tim Cook himself has been on the executive team for a long time and a lot of the others also have been on the team for a long time. Improving d

Well, what do you propose? Firing the executives and replacing them with women just to boost diversity?

Even if you don't use an actual harbor but just a "harbor", you need control of that area or someone you sell the drugs to needs to have that control. You also need people that put money on the drone. No point in shipping the

You need to control both harbors for that though. If you have a crew, they can make the transaction with another organisation and you don't need any local resources.

Jacking drones for ransom from a company that works directly with the US government? That might work a few times but how long until the coast guard intervenes? Not to mention that you need a ship, probably multiple people and quite a bit of

Size in that case generally applies to the number of employees and not to revenue, profits, market share or anything like that.

Why should they appear to be unbiased?

I don't think this is really what Apple is concerned about or rather what you mention falls into a grey area. There are a large number of apps which just don't work. They crash, depend on web applications that don't exist any

It might not make such attacks impossible but it will make them more complicated and that by itself should cause some attackers to fail. Isn't that by itself worth doing?

Oh, yes I'm sure there is vast hierarchy to climb from junior, to senior up to rockstar ninja guru taxi driver. A driving license will be more than sufficient for any driving job and if it isn't, you're applying for a job lik

Right and after work the drivers and artists that work for exposure get food from the supermarket without paying because the supermarket gets exposure by them shopping there.

by DasIch 10y ago
No, it isn't because the driver still makes a profit with Uber Pool and they didn't intend to travel where they're going. In Germany for example ride sharing under the legal definition requires that the driver doesn't ma

The EU is accountable, democratic and transparent (more transparent than some countries, like Germany, within the EU anyway).

At the moment at least in Germany you have ISPs advertising bandwidths and even selling contracts with bandwidth that can never be reached not because they don't have the capacity but because it's not possible to reach them given

That only goes to show that for people with money, citizenship becomes a choice and you get a market of countries that are in competition. Countries compete in many ways and form of government is just one and might not even be the deciding

In the end every form of government is democractic, simply because it's not possible to maintain a stable government over a population that is not satisfied to some degree, you get revolutions otherwise and this is how democracy or at

I agree but I think the comparison still makes sense in light of how torrent sites are treated. If you go by that, Udemy shouldn't really exist much longer unless they fundamentally change how they operate.

by DasIch 10y ago
Udemy is profiting from piracy here in a way not unlike some Torrent sites. This is not some minor thing ethically or legally.

Uber is not uniquely positioned to pool multiple people in one car, to suggest otherwise is quite frankly ridiculous. Also there are no preexisting cars of regular people for Uber to take advantage of because regular people don't have

Uber solves a problem in the US because the US government is failing to provide adequate public transportation and fails at properly regulating taxis. In most other civilized places with governments that succeed in these areas, Uber just do

Imagine being unemployed and you have your answer. Also we're not really gaining in productivity anymore (or we do but it has not much of an economically measurable effect) and haven't for a while now.

Nuclear reactors aren't economical, don't scale well, can't be deployed everywhere and it takes forever to build them. Even if everyone would agree to convert everything to nuclear reactors now it would probably take a decade

The German government has recommended this for decades already. What's new is that someone important with nothing else to do probably stumbled over this topic and decided it should be taken more seriously.

Compared to every nation, not just major ones, parental and maternal leave policies of the US seem barbaric.
