This is why OSS looks like a cult at times. People are allowed to criticize your project and complain about it. They have no obligation to become a contributor. "Submit a PR" is such a conversation killer.

> Well, that could certainly give the prospective employers plenty of information about the way you behave. That's the beauty; how would they know? The information is completely unverifiable so all such an interview does is find the

In Vietnam they know how to deal with this kind of thing. Maybe the people responsible can get the Trương Mỹ Lan treatment?

That does not follow at all. Perhaps they simply don't want to spin off a future competitor, and decide that selling simply isn't worth that future risk.

They get a possible future competitor and due to the forced nature of a potential sale are unlikely to get a fair price. Realistically they will not sell.

Apparently there are 150 million users in the US. If even a small part of the non-users oppose a ban, that's about half the population (especially since we can exclude small children).

Clearly you've never visited tumblr back in the day. They had both doomscrolling and a CSAM problem.

That's hardly the subtle influence that we're all supposed to be afraid of. If that's the only example you cas come up with... that's not a strong case.

So you're saying the USA is better and thus it never needs to be compared in any aspect related to 'freedom'? That's a nice way of never having to challenge your assumptions.

What makes you say that? What do they possibly have to gain by selling their main product?

The JVM can actually perform this optimization optimistically and can undo it if the assumption is violated at runtime. So Java's 'everything is virtual by default' approach doesn't hurt. Of course relying an a sufficien

I think we can safely conclude that you have no source for your original claim of spying and are just resorting to throwing mud when people request evidence for your false claims. If you're trying to convince anyone, I would highly rec

It's absurd to be accusing Hamas of genocide while Israel is committing an actual genocide on the Palestinians as we speak, and has a long history of apartheid and ethnic cleansing as well. Maybe we can worry about the hypothetical gen

It shouldn't be controversial to hate and want to destroy the people who have been oppressing and murdering you and your people for decades. It's understandable. It's absurd that the oppressor can then turn around and say &qu

Don't you think it's strange that every civilian that dies is either a woman or a child? According to Israels numbers they have never killed an innocent man, only women and children get in the way while killing the resistance figh

Most child abuse is committed by family and friends. Perhaps a little skepticism is healthy, rather than teaching them to have unwavering trust in authority figures. Besides, you're bound to screw up a few times anyway (e.g. walking in

Not enough to invest money and time, no. And my preferred party isn't in power, so it's not like knowing the current leadership is corrupt would change my vote - I don't vote for them anyway.

Definitely not. Nothing noteworthy happens locally, and if it does it will be on the national news.

So you would breed with her out of some enlightened eugenics reasons, then? No matter the potential personal cost to your offspring? How... noble?

Read The Fucking Manual. And did typing that comment really take less time than typing RTFM in your search engine of choice?

That is clearly nonsense, as the results of performing the arithmetic still need to be written back to memory, so it's just a swap with extra operations. See also the xor-swap.

Iran had a democracy, until the CIA toppled it in 1953. In general having oil means foreign powers will keep installing useful puppets as leaders. The middle east having few democracies may have more to do with Western greed than with the p

An entire civilian population cannot be stripped of its protections of international law. This type of dehumanising rhetoric is the exact filth that leads to genocide and other atrocities (as we can see happening live in recent months).

From the outside it sure looks like AIPAC has a lot of influence and US politicians by and large are absurdly committed to supporting Israel no matter how flagrantly it violates international law and human rights. You can try to dismiss t

The CIA has toppled foreign governments, for instance that of Iran. If you don't want to count them as part of the US military, what should the rest of the world call them instead? Terrorists?

Which of those points do you disagree with? Because they all seem reasonable and true to me.

The anti positron is literally the common electron. If you want to learn more about the subject I would recommend wikipedia, it has a lot of information about quantum mechanics.

Rust solves this (in common cases) by having the mutex wrap the data it protects. You can't make this mistake because you can't perform any operation without first taking the lock. Of course this doesn't cover all usecases

Some particles, such as protons and electrons, have an 'anti' version. When a particle meets its anti-version they annihilate, releasing energy in accordance to their mass (with the famous E=mc^2 formula). It's still a bit of
