I don't think it can be detected the first time its attempted with any particular group of users.

I don't know if I agree with you but I see your point, and it's not the sort of thing that people should be downvoting, I don't think. I usually think that the law shouldn't exist to enforce morality, but I'm not su

The concept of safe space is nothing new, people usually call it home or club. I was going to jump in and say this. Basically everyone has a "safe space" that they go to every day, but students often don't, especially the f

Does EME prevent new browsers from implementing it freely. I admit I haven't read the spec but from what I've read second-hand, it seems like it enables the vendor to ship the DRM code as a binary blob that runs natively in a sa

"SJW" is roughly analogous to "bible thumper" and about as derogatory too.

Really such editor-related gitignore entries should go in the user's core.excludesfile, not repository's .gitignore Its unlikely that anyone would try to make a file that conflicts with an editor-related gitignore entry, but it&#x

Usually when a drug is not available in the us it means that no regulations address it at all, do its legal to import as long as you don't sell it domestically. Do your researvh, but this is what I hear from nootropics enthusiasts.

Nicotine is deadly in high doses, and a "high dose" of nicotine is pretty small. If you extracted all the nicotine from an average cigarette and took it intravenously, I imagine that would be enough to kill an average person. But

You're being entirely dogmatic; nicotine is hardly bad for you at all on its own. The consensus is that it probably doesn't have any role in causing cancer, although it might accelerate an existing metastasized cancer. There are s

Fwiw, high school language classes are very easy and slowly paced, to the point where I aced the standard curriculum purely by showing up to class and doing no out-of-class work, nor any memorization at all. So either the curriculum should

What a narrow way to look at things. First of all, it seems that cableshaft felt talked down to. In that case it doesn't matter that it's a "free service", in-person conversations are also "free" but it's

If you commit a felony and are as a result never again allowed to purchase a firearm, your rights are being perpetually limited, and I and a lot of other people object to that, and it's arguably a violation of the 8th ammendment. If ba

When you design a eDSL out of functions you get a lot of expressive power for free because you can lean on the host language's composition facilities. However this also means you have to shoehorn your semantics into an existing set of

Is this the first release of this app? I thought that previously the standard google calendar app was just AOSP Calendar, but I prefer the AOSP apps anyway so maybe I didn't notice the shift earlier? Anyway, in case I'm right, it&

Better to not cause the damage in the first place, consolidate the parts of the transaction that were usefully completed into an isolated location, and provide a way to resolve the issue and resume the transaction. I think at least Pacman a

Huh, I was surprised how smooth the imgui demo was on mobile (firefox on android). Much nicer than when people try to do similar with Dom elements.

Those would typically be considered features for an external tool, maybe with the editor configured to provide an interface to those tools. If you write java and value those features, though IDEA will be a better experience.

Its using the term "sea floor" as an ingredient, "dry land" as a location. "Put rocks from the sea floor on a plot of dry land". To be fair to the editor, I don't see how "put x on y" could ever

We think that cosmic background radiation and certain subatomic mechanics are truly random. If you attach extra hardware to a computer, you can observe these and send a stream of bits to the computer. You don't usually want to use trul

Both Windows and Linux are distinguished for their pathological conviction to never break userspace. Linux has its warts because of this, but since it's 10 years younger than DOS and since, as a Unix kernel, it was always very clear wh

I don't think the parent was saying that you shouldn't take over a subreddit in response to moderator behavior. The thread has been saying two seperate things: that you shouldn't try to take over a subreddit for how its users

In general, I'm inclined to think that in a democracy, the people should have more direct influence to things “closer” to them (by some measure), and less for bigger, nationwide, issues, of which they presumably have less understandin

Right, as opposed to also worrying about a careless teenager flying their drone too close to an airport to get a sick camera angle of a landing plane.

It's an ad, but one that's providing a legitimately useful service. Theres no conflict of interest here (the summary isn't any more biased because it's an ad than a regular commenter would be) and if it weren't an a

Treating callbacks as monads is literally the definition of promises. If that code does the same thing it did in 2011 when I last looked at livescript, that's not treating callbacks as monads, thats just borrowing a syntax that Haskell

Their definition is copied straight out of the wikipedia article on brutalism. It's not a recent edit, it's been that way for at least a year.

The problem is with computers we have to build incredibly complex systems out of very basic axioms (the features of von Neumann machines). The closest similarly complex systems built out of natural language are philosophy and law, and both

Its hard to make any meaningful conclusions about that based on just descriptions of someone's problems, since ADHD is so outwardly subtle. OP indicated that this was a recent trend, which would cast doubt on the ADHD explanation. Not

Fair. Maybe it would be better to say "any reader who recognizes their prejudices and compensates accordingly". Bit of a mouthful though.
