From the Wikipedia plot summary it doesn't seem much different from what currently happens in countries like Saudi Arabia.

"Why don't you just rewrite it in X?" Because Python 3.X is not backwards compatible and we have millions of lines of production code in Python 2.X.

Procedurally generated stories. This is where video games can have an upper hand over other media. Dwarf Fortress is doing it right.

I can't believe people are actually defending Tesla here. Truly there's no limit to fanboyism.

Good thing you were in Bamako and not, say, in Timbuktu in 2012-2013 when it was captured by insurgents. Mali is hardly a good example of peace and prosperity.

Why wouldn't you go straight to en.wikipedia.org? If you use a per-language site, Wikipedia never redirects you.

Yes, at first I couldn't even beat easy mode because the "obvious" places were unexpectedly mined. Each cell has way more neighbors in 3d, so it becomes hard to use the techniques from classic minesweeper.

What's wrong with Kid Rock anyway?

Because the basic premise of the article is wrong. Nowhere where I worked the ratio of women in tech positions has exceeded 10%. In many ways people here are way more sexist. At my former job my superior told me that he had a job applicatio

I takes a lot of effort to create a social network that's even harder to navigate than Twitter, but, by god, they did it. As a logged out user, it's literally impossible to follow any conversations that happen on there.

You won't have the choice of turning ublock origin off when Google implements this feature. They'll remove it themselves under the guise of "replicating the functionality of the base product".

Taking a definition from literal communist propaganda website (marxists.org, really?) isn't much good either. I'm sure national-socialists describe themselves in nicest terms too.

Disgusting. Not only is this harmful practice often enforced by social pressure, now they want to make it into a law. Makes me glad to live in a country where tipping is not so widespread.

XUL plugins that can modify the browser's interface and open up infinite possibilities to improve the user's experience... Oh, wait, Firefox's removing that too.

It's not about checking in. Obviously I had to provide an ID to every hotel I've checked in (though reportedly Richard Stallman manages to avoid that too). It's about not having to upload a profile photo to be able to use the

I tried to use AirBnb once, but apparently you can't book a reservation unless you upload your photo. The fuck? And then they wonder why their hosts discriminate by race! I sure don't need to show my photo to a hotel to book a roo

Never heard of this before. The described algorithm for parsing color codes seems absolutely bizarre. What could've possibly been a rationale for it?

Why would life be ridiculously common? It cannot appear by itself, that would be "spontaneous generation" [1], a long rejected theory. The Earth is extremely suitable for life. It could've easily supported independently evo

These huge storage boxes look like they would severely mess with balance. I can already feel the difference in maneuverability when I put a grocery bag in front of a bike, now imagine 30kg of mail in there.

It would be quite ironic if irreversible climate change will come about because of ignorance of "green" anti-nuclear activists.
