It's not billions, but the EU is funding some open source software. https://hexus.net/tech/news/software/125747-14-open-source-p... I think France is also funding/developing Matrix.

It's probably much more expensive. The difference is between a loan which will likely be paid back versus paying the salaries of thousands of people for who knows how long. Also, good luck taking a plane in the few months following t

I had the same reaction at first, but after a bit of thinking I reached this: You can do without it, sure, but if you don't have a bidet then it's inconvenient and annoying. Toilet paper is cheap, easy to store and it does not d

Well, apparently 40% of the staff in intensive care unit exposed to covid victims has been infected, so I'm not sure how useful those fancy suits are.

Touchwiz has been dead for a couple of years now. The replacement, One UI, is really good, you should give it a try.

Do you mind expanding on that? I was thinking the same thing at first, why have this monstrous global state which is against every good practice you have ever heard of. But then, if you want to keep state when switching between pages, you n

You can assign integers to enum in C++, just like in C, but not to enum class. Use the latter when you need type safety, the former when you need to easily convert integer <-> enum, which apart from (de)serialisation is rare in my e

Though in that case, correct me if I am wrong, the old coastline was actually further inward.

The problem also is that Switzerland is way smaller than China. China could shut down a whole province and have the rest of the country help them. Switzerland is much smaller and realistically would have to shut down the whole country.

I think the reported rate is 0, with contamination rates being low as well. It seems that currently there are more reasons to be worried for your parents than for your kids.

Not that I disagree with your post, but I would expect the average cruise goer to be older than the general population.

My experience was relatively positive. I was contacted by a Google recruiter a bit more than a year ago, as I was starting to look for a new job. First had a phone call with an HR, which explained the whole process and asked me to grade mys

I think rebase is fine, you just need to synchronise with the people working with you on the branch. There shouldn't be more than 1 or 2, otherwise you're probably doing something wrong. Also, I only rebase when it makes sense in

I have no data to back this up, but I would say train is the most subsidised. The infrastructure required for trains, as well as the maintenance of those tens thousands of miles of tracks have to dwarf whatever tax break planes get on fuel.

Infrastructure costs, they are absolutely massive compared to what you need for planes.

Regarding 7., do you feel discounts helped in the early days? Does it make sense to be really flexible about pricing early on to get as many users as possible then transition to a more stable pricing? I feel the transition could be diffic

Do you mind explaining why it is a bad idea in principle? It feels like if we have a decent implementation (a big ask, to be sure), it would be safer and more convenient than the actual way.

Except they're not, for the vast majority of them. Yes, it might be true in the ski resorts, but most people leave in the plains. Zürich has barely had any snowfall this year. Even in snowier years, it's a few days per year at

I don't have a list, but initialisation is quite a mess and the syntax inconsistent. That would be one of the first thing I would fix in C++.

Even then, is it? If the choice is between having a major restructuring which results in breaking compatibility and similar once, or kicking the can every 20 years with a minimal patch; I can certainly see the later being the rational dec

There was a BBC article a couple of days ago, saying it had been reported he was helped by a band. They came to his place then left with him hidden in an instrument case (I would assume a Bass). The airport part is not clear, but either t

Why 2 features in parallel and not just one? Do you have external dependencies that block your progress, or is it to be able to switch between them and not always do the same thing? Or something else entirely?

Some of those are just because the bus is badly designed. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to buy your ticket online, or through a Oyster-like card. Also, it's something that really surprised me when I was in the UK,

Anything performance related I'd say, e.g. stuff like games. There are some overheads involved, and you lose optimisation possibilities.

They're production constrained. The backlog for A32x is like 10 year long. At some point, better a slightly inferior plane now (well, in the next few years) than in 20 years. I assume they don't increase production (or at least

Do you think other degrees, outside of maths or physics maybe, makes you better at the things you listed? It seems unlikely to me, and the fact people struggle with this is more representative of the general population than of the degree
