What are the credit notes backed by? Hahaha, what are Euros backed by? Or are they effectively running a ponzi What is the ECB running? You have to remember, this is exactly the same thing as how our official money works. Someone just g

Wow, I found that surprisingly difficult. I noticed that when I read code, I optimize my attention for bugs _I_ make, which are often of a different nature than the bugs that this static analyzer finds. Clearly, I have to work on my bug awa

It sounds though, like you're upset with certain "social" complaints that some people have had with games lately, i.e. being upset about women being over sexualised in games, or what not. If you mean with "social"

That's a really odd statement. I'm not sure what "true gamer culture" is, but there is a good chance I come from a completely different country to you, have a completely different background and life experiences to you.

Okay, lying about what's inside a can of food is nothing short of fraud, that is, not fulfilling your contractual obligation to the buyer properly, even worse if it's intentionally. I don't want to abolish contracts, that wou

Does anyone really trust online game reviews? Game media is corrupt to the bone and the first thing I think when I see a positive review is that it was bought. Besides, the culture of game media is often far, far away from true gamer cultur

Thank you for making me feel much less safe on Swiss trains now =) That aside, I've often been wondering how these systems work exactly. There must be a challenging engineering problem behind organizing all of this.

Good luck arguing the 'why' when you have a trained neural network and all you have is the network and weights. On a more serious note, I love transparency but again, this is an overeager regulation (not surprising from the EU). Y

I think Tillich wanted to make a point about solitude and loneliness, not the superiority of English. I find his point interesting in both contexts.

I am willing to give up my language in favour of a world language - in fact, I have already done that. I think in English. I write all my poetry, stories and dreams in English, I only communicate in that language unless it's with famil

If computer scientists made similar emotional arguments: Save EBCDIC because diversity. No. Full stop. It's the adherents' of these cultures (speakers' of these languages) duty to compile and/or translate their cultural

I like your approach. It's funny, I never thought about it that way, I never even considered visualizing it. I always looked at it from the perspective of pure number theory.

That's very interesting. What kinds of time periods and amounts of fish do we speak of here? Years and eating a fish meal every couple of days? Because I love fish (also a lean source of protein) so I better be careful with that. How d

I am not surprised in the least. Norton Antivirus is one of the worst of its kind. I've used it for many years. Every single virus/trojan/adware infection I got went straight through Norton Antivirus without it doing anythin

Well, the plan for what happens next depends in a large part on negotiations with the EU - who doesn't seem to care about negotiating if there is no clear wakeup call and time limit (like 2 years after taking article 50). The vote was

Yeah, you're right. I don't want to imply it's the same. What I mean is that power-grabs must be quickly fended off before it's too late, at which point it becomes almost impossible.

EU are buffoons compared to USSR Luckily, at the moment, yes. But if you watch closely, you see the the EU has actually been consistently increasing its power and leverage over countries. Let's be frank: At this point, Greece is basi

Tbh I see the vote as a vote for democracy and self-determination. The immigrant question is secondary. The EU applies enormous political pressure all across the European continent and it's getting really uncomfortable, especially if t

Straw man - no one is saying we won't survive He said jumping off the cliff. That is literally just saying the Brits won't survive. Besides, England will be able to make a trade deal with China (something the EU doesn't man

If you are from Eastern Europe, you probably understand better than most Europeans how harmful it is to be integrated into a bloc and controlled by a powerful undemocratic outside force.

They democratically elected to basically jump off a cliff Scare-mongering. If you have to be in the EU to be able to trade, yes, to survive, then it is time to destroy the EU once and for all. No single entity should be able to terroriz

You gotta love how incredibly anti-Brexit the media are. They have to construct all kinds of imaginary scenarios (that haven't happened and probably will never happen) to bash the democratic decision of the British people.

I disagree. If you see the size of our governments and the amount of laws, it's absolutely mindboggling. Our laws have tens of thousands of pages and the volume of regulations and laws seem to be at an all-time high and growing. No sub

4000 Francs is a de-facto minimum wage in Switzerland. Even the most basic jobs will earn you that much, usually. It's rare that you earn significantly less than that.

I read that they (the people who launched it) proposed to increase the VAT to 50%. 50% VAT! This is lunacy. The proponents of UBI in Switzerland are economic illiterates. I haven't heard of a single good way to fund this UBI which cost
