Many of the 48 % might also have wanted to change the status quo but were afraid of the economical consequences.

You likely are highly qualified. This is different than e.g. the large number of people who came to germany last year where many (I suppose) don't have a good compatible education. Also you have a job, this is different than when you g

Nazis happened ~70 years ago, it's minuscule now and the world changed. I'd suggest you put your attention to more contemporary issues. - e.g. the, lamentable sub par state of most muslim countries. Many of those countries have so

They are too small. I also have such 'pain-points', e.g. the notes with CardDAV/Fastmail are not synchronized. Wtf, such a basic requirement. But realistically they cannot match Andorid/iPhone, it's kind of a wonder

It's a 'super-pity' that the tablet failed. I have one and like it a lot! (<3 to jolla for trying to provide a more open and friendly ecosystem, wish you were a billion-euro-strong company)

Thank you for this reply, I also wish you luck with your project, joy at the JuliaCon and I'm glad that 0.4 worked :-) Maybe a source of discontent is that startups are using Julia 'for real' and are under pressure to deliver

But then - as a bystander - let me mention that I once wondered about your insistent replies in some gh issue. God, can't he stop, I thought, and, wow, they have patience. Fortunately such a situation is rare and I'm very often im

R and Mathematica are also 1 based. And R really is popular ( http://www.tiobe.com/tiobe_index?page=index - ok, popularity is droping right now, likely b/c of Julia ;-))

You are wrong. Censoring [1] is exactly what I said, "the purpose of suppressing parts deemed objectionable on moral, political, military, or other grounds". He is being threatened to lose his job, this is suppression. You don&#x2

I'm against censoring. What I read here: >>hatte ... von einem "lebensbejahenden afrikanischen Ausbreitungstyp" gesprochen - was von Experten als rassistisch gewertet worden war<< [1] should not be compared with h

On what system (resources) are you running gitlab? In my experience it is not slow. I also run a gogs instance; great for the modest resource requirements but by far no match in features and look. Both make sense imho and do not overlap muc

Very bad reaction from Duncan to revoke access to issue tracker b/c of this. They could have closed/rejected the 'bug report' and all would be fine imho. (If one keeps pestering then it's another matter).

Thanks for replying. gitlab.com is not an option in my case a.o. reasons due to ci testing (which btw is supergreat in 8.x!!). But this pages ee is the first time i think gl did 'wrong'. Not really 'core-essential', but

The market niche is/was nicely being served by Jolla. (At least outside US. But as mentioned they are bankrupt atm. And the phone is old - still nice imho)

If only they would embrace modern code managing methods, e.g. Github to make contributing easier. And, maybe, divide the 'pascal universe' in easier digesteable parts: compiler, non-visual core code, core ui components, additional

This hasn't been tried yet afaik. Sure, I don't know how UN stewardship could be possible atm. But in a smaller better connected world, I think, we increasingly need a way to police failed/bad-behaving/suffering states.

There are a lot of jobless people in the world. If all of them became militants we had the full chaos. Bye bye open society, here comes the surveillance society. If you read e.g. what happened in Palmyra, the (sometimes foreign) radical mu
