A few points: 1. It’s not “unfettered” and never has been. That’s an extraordinary claim which suggests you have no firsthand knowledge of the requirements imposed on those wishing to migrate to the UK. 2. Consequences of migration on welfa

Makes it even more impressive: the parts that were actually implicated in the explosion itself (and scattered from the aircraft) were not defective, so the investigation had to go through parts which did not seem to have exploded in order t

I think your section on data privacy could mislead some folks. You’ve written: > Is my data protected? Absolutely. BoltAI operates locally on your device, and no user input or prompts are stored or sent to us. While the explanation might

Depends on what you’re talking about, to be honest. The “element” is the “thing”. The “tag” is how you tell the browser what you want. This is why you have DOM functions like “getElementsByTagName”, which allows you to say “I know the tag n

Wetherspoons have an app where you can order online (never used it before and had the pleasure of discovering how dreadful it is for the first time), but they don't publish any prices online other than that. After multiple attempts to

I was about to comment “hey, spoiler alert”, but then I realised that you’re talking about a game released a quarter of a century ago . More time has passed since MGS came out than passed between the Ramones’ first gig and MGS’s release. M

I think there’s more to dig into here. Although it’s fairly well known that sleep (and lack of it) can trigger seizures on waking, there’s not much understanding of why. Recently a big breakthrough in SUDI research (“cot death”/“SIDS”)

I know you’ve acknowledged the numbers in your response are off, but nevertheless there’s a seemingly problematic assumption underlying this statement even if your numbers held true: there’s no reason that Facebook should only ask users to

On re-reading it seems more like I misunderstood. I thought you were saying to animate the planes, but I no longer think that's what you meant.

Not sure if you picked up your own slight mistake earlier, but this is also exactly why you shouldn't try and 'tween' the planes to the new positions if you're aiming for realism.

Some bugs still. Mostly if I run into a bug, and I try to open the same site in Safari, I experience the same bug. Occasionally it'll do something stupid and hang completely, but I'd say maybe that happens once or twice a week, no

It’s a good question. I’m not sure of exactly the answer, but I suspect the answer is similar to the answer “why do Americans speak German with an American accent?” If you learn how to pronounce specific vowels, consonants, etc. in a partic

On point 2, someone posted a tool a while back called Stylometry which is now sadly defunct, but had some interesting feedback and seemed to be pretty successful at identifying “alts”. I’m sure that the tech has improved since then and woul

I’m not sure which definition of rent-seeking you’re using here, but I encourage you to revisit it. Rent-seeking doesn’t just mean “charging an expensive subscription fee”.

I wasn’t confused by your post, I disagreed with it. OP expects that their software will continue to deliver value over time, and so has chosen a payment model that reflects that. This is not “rent-seeking”.

I don't think this is particularly rent-seeking, just you and the creator have a difference of opinion on the value of the software.

“Di” as a prefix is normally adequate when referring to two (dimension, dilemma, dichotomy, etc) and yet it acquires an “a” in “dialogue”. Possibly a similar word constructed from the “tri” prefix should also have an “a” inserted.

It’s a bit of an odd mixture. Subaru as a whole brand is fairly sedate and middle-of-the-road, but basically anyone who’s ever bought an Impreza only got it to hoon around in.

Facebook don’t have to make 12.99EUR/user. There are two values here: what percentage of people opt for the “ad-free” experience and how much FB makes per user. In fact, as long as their ad revenue per user is LESS than 12.99, this wil

Exactly the point here. There’s a bunch of brilliant reasons to use SQLite. One good reason is that by the time you outgrow it, you’re probably shifting enough data for it to be a worthwhile use of an engineering team’s time to plan a migra

Hm. @apply solves a problem. Basically you’re better off writing with the utility classes if you can extract your component out to… well, a component. If for whatever reason you can’t do that, @apply helps you avoid repeating yourself, whic
