It's not particularly this episode and it's not banned. You can't watch any South Park episode on South Park Studio in France because the streaming rights for the country have been sold to another company.

But Valve never was a startup. It was entierely self-funded by Newell and Harrington who had become rich after working from Microsoft. Benioff remarks about governance don't really apply to Valve because even if Valve was poorly manage

Le Pen father is an antisemite, a racist and a generally despicable person who thought and was condamned for saying that the Holocaust is a mere "detail of history", not a denier. That doesn't in any way make his party a offs

No offense but Le Pen party is absolutely not an offshoot of a nazi party. The idea that you could casually label a third of France as nazy is strongly offensive. Le Pen actually tried to join the resistance as a teenager. It is a strongly

It's only a problem if you want to use an encrypted home and ssh into your laptop while not logged locally. I mean, no one likes the current situation but it was deemed an acceptable trade off considering there is a work around.

It's a good guess. The first sentence of Lennart answer to this question is : > Well. Homed is intended primarily for client machines, i.e. laptops and thus machines you typically ssh from a lot more than ssh to if you follow what i

Sadly, BuckleScript tries to do everything. It ships with a not so-great build system, a good compiler to javascript, a standard library replacement and it invites you to use npm for package management. Dune is the build system which has b

Linus version is the correct one. The original was incorrect and was mistakenly backported to the LTS tree instead of the Linus one.

Wanting to retain local sovereignty rather than be part of a larger block seems to me like a legitimate reason to be in favour of Brexit regardless of the democratic legitimity of the EU. It's not one I agree with but it certainly seem

It is actually extremely difficult to resign when you are haressed even when you know you are being harassed. It hit your sense of worth really hard. Feeling worthless prevents you for properly assessing what you could do on the job market.

As an aside, there is a cathedral built during the 90s in the modernist style in France. It is in Evry, just 40km south of Paris. I have visited it, it's actually pretty nice. It's very bright inside and accoustic is supposedly ve

I'm far from convinced Tesla actually needed so much robotics. Relying on robots so much might actually have been a strategic mistake due to their inexperience. It looks to me like this bet has still to pay off. Nevertheless, Apple kno

On the one hand, Apple has a lot of experience in domains where Tesla has been less than great (supply chain, manufacturing) and software is slowly becoming a key differentiator for the automobile industry so I can somewhat see where synerg

Sure, you can manually force Unix Time to go backward but that's very different from what is argued in the article. If you do time-aware processing and mess with the clock you are using, you can except troubles. That's in no way

I deeply disagree with point 3. Unix Time actually never goes backward: it just stagnates during a leap second. The article uses fictional fractional second to argue the contrary but I don't think it makes much sense. Unix Time is rep
