Refugees get housing not accessible to regular citizens like a bed in a tent, gymnasium or another large building you need to share with a huge number of people in which you don't have any private space. Regular citizens will get their

C technically has consensus on what is and what isn't undefined behavior. You don't have sufficient tooling around that though, which means that while that consensus exists, it's hard to take advantage of it. Additionally you

You can always sue but by my understanding they would have to show that statement to be false. I think that would prove to be rather difficult.

If Thiel hadn't kept it a secret, it could have affected the trial. I think that alone is a perfectly good reason for keeping the involvement secret.

It doesn't matter how many media outlets break the law. If the law is bad, it should be changed but if it isn't and the media outlets break the law, they should be held accountable.

Agreed. The problem isn't that Thiel supported Hogan in his trial, it's that it was necessary for someone like Thiel to do so in order for a victim of Gawker to get justice.

It doesn't cause less demand. Demand should stay constant. It may even rise because the price drops and more people can now afford to buy the product.

People don't care about privacy, even quite a few people actually in tech don't care about it that much. There are even post-privacy people who are, at least to some degree, opposed to it. Software freedom is something that only a

Landing the first stage is impressive but actually useful only in so far as it allows you to reuse it. SpaceX has yet to show that they can actually reuse the first stage. It will take longer still to show that they can do it reliably. Let&

There wouldn't be less demand, there would be a higher supply. In any case IoT is doing it's best to massively increase demand for programmers. Once everything is sufficiently IoTified programming will be as common a tool as a ham

5.5h is nothing. It's not long enough that you can use it the entire day, it's not even long enough in a work environment. 5.5h may be enough for gaming or something but apart from that, it's just too limiting. Additionally t

You forget about batteries. We are probably able to do VR/AR stuff like this in a few years but we won't have the energy to implement them as wearables. It will take a lot of progress or some kind of massive breakthrough in batter

I don't see how any redesign could help with that. There is only a single Apple Store in Berlin and it's probably similar elsewhere in Europe. The only way to get an appointment is to get one immediately once they make new ones av

You can increase density only so far. It's not like you can just make streets wider or stack them on top of each other. Not to mention all the other infrastructure that you need. In addition to that dense housings can lead to social pr

Property tax is common, land value taxes muss less so. Although arguably they're much better in many ways (assuming regulation isn't otherwise broken in regards to zoning for example).

The idea of land value tax is to create value by building on that land. Decreasing the tax when there is nothing on the land goes against that.

I think this perfectly shows that design patterns are just that patterns. They're not goals but they aren't really tools either. They're just what you see when you compare different code bases because similar problems will pr

That's a very good reason. I don't think it truly explains the shift, considering the larger context. They suffered similar and larger legal setbacks on data retention and they didn't change their position on that, they pursu

Just politically it doesn't make any sense to me to believe the change will have that effect. Why would after such a long time the CDU suddenly drop the pro-Störerhaftung position? It seems much more likely that SPD and CDU have reache

I don't think the law actually explicitly affects wifi, that's just a consequence. The concept of Störerhaftung precedes wifi by quite a bit.

I don't think it's a bad idea either. You might not be able to reasonably support all features Excel has but you could still provide some value with a subset. I think this could be quite useful not so much when you're startin

It could be interesting to take spreadsheets and compile them into functions. You'd get a DSL with an incredibly powerful IDE and interpreter for development basically for free.

Indeed. It looks like modern publications need not just a separation of church and state but also the bar across the street from the church to bring some foot traffic in the area.

Buzzfeed can credibly do investigative journalism because despite all the clickbait, they maintain a good reputation. Gawker on the other hand is the Trump of journalism, absolutely shameless, willing to do and say anything for clicks. No a
