   Modern Christmas is essentially a non-religious celebration, unless if you go to church. It is mostly about family gathering and gift giving, so even atheists have no problem with that.

   Belief in gods and participation in rituals are different things. Japanese people are very traditional, they like to maintain the rituals of their predecessors. However, this doesn't imply that they believe in traditional gods. This ma

   US foreign aid is mostly synonymous to defense spending. They give money to other countries with the agreement that they will buy from the American weapons manufacturers. So, in a sense this "aid" is just a give out to the US war

    I would be very glad if grass lawns were made unlawful in the US. It is a terrible waste of time, money, and natural resources for something so useless. I don't have any idea why this silly concept became so common in this country.

    I was able to build it for M1 without any issue. You just need a previous lisp to bootstrap, a previous release or even clisp can be used, for example.

    Barns-Lee had nothing to do with Javascript. HTML was created as a display technology for static documents and for that purpose it is just fine. Javascript was an afterthought, and that's exactly why the web is the hodgepodge of techno

    This is bad advice. Changing the default prefix for recipes is worse than using tabs, whatever your feelings about tabs are. Just use make as it was designed, it will work better this way.

    In C the way to solve this is to look at the man page for the function and see what they say about memory allocation. There is no magic involved.

    C has many problems, but I don't see this as one. Very few people even realize this functionality exists, and I don't see anyone promoting its use.

    When I was just out of college I spent a couple of months reading that kind of literature. Then I started to realize that if I did everything they asked I wound't be myself anymore, I would be the image of an idealized "successful

    Good summary. There's no end to the kind of delusion some AI proponents will cling too. In a few days they'll say this is another proof we live in a simulation!

    Even if you had said only the last 15 years, that would still include languages like Clojure, Rust, Typescript, Swift, and Julia. But from 20 to 30 years you start to get into the league of: C# and Java, R, Lua, PHP, Ruby... In other words,

    They don't really need to stop hiring, they just need to match the number of people leaving the company (which is always happening).

    I say this is bogus, anyone can still read a book that is interesting. The problem is that most people are not exposed to interesting books anymore, since most books published in the last few years are undeserving of attention. I tell this

    Exactly what I thought. He just changed to a new habit and wants to say that this "cured" his procrastination problems. I would suggest that it did nothing, at least for now. Maybe in a couple of years it may be different.
