You should look into these things before opining on them. For example, someone else posted this link regarding leukemia rates in children around nuclear power plants: https://www.bfs.de/DE/bfs/wissenschaft-forschun

While that conference is partially made up of "normal" citizens, there's also an energy consultancy behind it that specifically advocates for nuclear power - so far from just citizens. https://anschalt-konferenz.de

Your first paragraph is what I frequently hear when people purport science to be a religion, but you're making two fundamentally wrong assumptions - first most scientists no longer believe a "Theory of Everything" to be able

The article talks about tissue itself emitting light. By what mechanism would this light produce a "bright outline about 1cm thick"? Lamps etc. don't produce such an outline.

Now just imagine how the ad that causes you to have an accident will stick in your head! Possibly even physically! Amazing work by Apple.

I just wrote a response to this comment, but it's not here. Good luck finding it! Looking forward to your reply.

In that case, why not hide the information behind even more pages & links? That surely must be even better for making people exercise those strengths!

I mean sure, I can probably find Lazarus if searching for a Delphi IDE. But please explain: what's the advantage? They save a couple of bytes in storage for the forum post, and besides that, what do you get apart from a sense of elitis

Am I misreading something, or isn't that already in 1,000 years?

by Timon3 1y ago
I know Delphi, yet I didn't know Lazarus until now. I'm sure there are others like me. I can understand not wanting to explain Delphi, but come on, not everyone knows the name of every IDE for every language. It doesn't hurt

I'm not playing this game with you, people can go look at previous posts for your software and decide themselves. I'll just leave one great example - you keep saying that JS can't handle more than 150k records, when people ex

You ask this every time, but never incorporate the feedback. Why even bother?

Dishonest comparisons are their MO - if you look at the previous submissions for their software, they always show how much smaller their version is, but leave out 90% of the features of the version they compare it to. People always notice t

This has also been my experience. Every update brings new weird bugs that disrupt my workflow - it's gotten bad enough that I've stopped updating their tools when the bugs aren't in main parts of my workflow, because while up

You're technically correct - you can't force people to give consent for targeted advertising (since it would no longer be consent). But you're absolutely allowed to show people ads if they don't want to pay for ad-free.

It's not like this is the first time APIs have been improved. There are many tools (e.g. deprecation warnings & hints in editors, linter rules) that can help bridge the gap - even if t-strings are only used for new or refactored co

There is no reason to support the first or second usage. It's totally fine to always require a t-string: db.execute(t"SELECT foo FROM bar;") See? No reason to accept strings, it's absolutely fine to always error

But it was the conservative government in Germany that shut the nuclear plants down, the Greens were in the opposition at the time. When they were in power, the Greens even pushed back the shutdown. Kinda seems like you're assigning th

So now we have moved from "tagged template literals have all the complexity of Python templates" to "if you define a specific template tag and use that, you can replicate one feature of Python templates". No mention of t

Sorry, but do just not want to understand what I'm talking about? Your example doesn't show what you're saying it does. In Python you can do this: bar = "hello world" template = t"<something foo={b

No, they literally don't, because they don't support these features! You can't split apart the declaration of the template literal and the "tagging". The tag is always part of the declaration, which it doesn'

by Timon3 1y ago
No, it doesn't, it references the language at the declaration site, because the declaration site always is the usage site. You can't split them apart. You can split them apart in Python - see the example in my first comment.

Come on, you're just being rude for no good reason. A badly chosen variable name doesn't show a "complete misunderstanding". Yes, the variable should have been named `html_template` instead of `html_string` - how often d

by Timon3 1y ago
Sure, choose different variable names, who cares. The essential difference is that the language is referenced at the declaration site, not the usage site, which makes the syntax highlighting far easier. Please engage with my point instead o
