Not at all. However Germany has a massive trade imbalance because it's exporting all these products. There are only so many countries this can work for. Recently-ish Germany is also aided by the fact that the rest of the eurozone isn&#

We know very little about how the brain and the mind actually work. Nevertheless we need to somehow people who have problems with these things. It makes sense to try things that might not be fully supported by science as has been done succe

The idea of evidence-based medicine and using the scientific method in medicine came up in the 1960s. It took longer still for it to become widely used and there are still massive problems in that area today, take a look at drug testing as

In some countries people consider education to be actually important. If you tax people with high incomes properly, the people that graduate university and get a well paying job will pay so much in taxes you will easily be able to pay for t

EULAs aren't legally binding in some countries because they're not disclosed before the sale. So this might protect them in the US but I could imagine it becoming a problem in other countries still.

You're right that in this particular case it's not a problem. Nevertheless any type of device that can be connected to a network, will be connected to the internet. Someone somewhere will make it happen. I doubt the hotel came up

Depends on how targeted the attack is. A hacker who is bored and is searching Shodan for what entertainment the IoT is offering might find GPS quite useful.

When was the last time Israel invaded Lebanon or Gaza without prior provocation or attack? Further one might want to keep in mind that Gaza is currently being ruled by an organization, that has the destruction of Israel as one of it's

Better Israel than Saudi Arabia, don't you think? Somehow supporting Israel is always critized but a government that's almost indistinguishable from ISIS apart from the fact that they happen to be allied wih the US is apparently f

Israel's continued existance is of national interest to many governments. They're an important political ally, critical to the stability in the region and the ability of the west to project power into the middle east. Also keep in

The ECB is not that strongly against inflation. They have a goal of 2% inflation. They've also received criticism from the German Bundesbank for risking to much inflation with their programs.

The Bertelsmann Stiftung leans heavily towards being economically liberal. It would be surprising not to see that influence in the study.

That's a really bad example. If Google or Apple start producing self-driving vehicles, they're part of the American auto industry. If GM then can't keep up with them, who cares? The American auto industry is still perfectly f

That argument works well with the Star Trek wiki as example. I don't think it goes as well with the Minecraft wiki. Fan wikis like this are targeted at people that already have a fairly good understanding of what the article is about.

They're not just opinionated. They violate ethical standards, are sexist, lie, violate the privacy of crime victims, are racist and xenophobic bordering on illegal incitement of hatred, they harrass people that speak against them and h

It's also a question of maintanance. What does it matter, if you have articles on every little thing but 3/4 of them are outdated? People critizize Wikipedia based on the concept already quite a bit. If you can't maintain art

To call Axel Springer's reputation bad would describe their reputation as far more positive than it is. There is a famous quote by Max Goldt that describes the stance especially from the political left on the newspaper quite well: >

Most people are happy they can barely use their browser and have probably never seen any of these menus. They won't even think about opening the Preferences window to look around and they definitely won't consider that they could

It's easier to read but it also has an aesthetic that reminds me of the children's books I used to learn to read with in primary school. Comparing the text as-is and in reader mode, you see that the font the author choose is bolde

There are very few people who are able to make informed choices about typography to create a site that's most readable to them. You might be able to do that but you're the exception and not the rule.

Browsers are already highly specialized and complex VMs. If you have the ability to build a browser and work on all parts of it, you have the ability to create new languages. So creating a new language is not at all that far away from their

It'll stay but it's still undocumented and the code heavily relies on things that are undocumented as well. This makes understanding it unnecessarily difficult and forces you to comment your own code quite extensively. On the othe

STM isn't magic. Transactions can and will silently fail and you lose your parallelism. You need additional tools to identify and debug failed transactions and you'll need to learn how to structure your code to avoid failed transa

Somehow Python 3 projects don't require updates? PyPI stats are going to be massively inflated due to Continous Integration and such but I don't see why that would tip the scales in one direction or the other by any significant am
