Unless I've missed something, it also seems to be news to Professor Troy Shinbrot of Rutgers University.

Different media organisations also a factor? A story on the BBC about a popular new thingy might not feature at all on France 24, whereas in the US it might be covered by east and west coast news, getting widespread exposure. Europe has n

Looks to me like it's simply growing into a many-featured multi-paradigm language, much like Scala.

I am clearly not a lawyer: if you tell passport control that you lost your drugs on the plane, there will be no evidence to prosecute you, but they probably won't let you in. More seriously, just don't get on the plane, then after

These conversations never consider location. Finding a job in Greece is going to take a different length of time compared to finding in San Francisco, different to Little Rock, Alabama (is that a place? It sounds like a place.), etc. I s

"Rail guns, ..., fire a projectile at six or seven times the speed of sound - enough velocity to cause severe damage." I'd imagine so!

London is too expensive. Low budget start-ups contribute to thriving tech industry, and London not only excludes them but is increasingly expensive. It's experiencing something similar to SF, from what I read about SF, a hollowing ou

This was a reply, but devolved into a dump of my current thoughts on economics. As I'm no economist it is likely muddled, naive, nonsense. The UK newspapers regularly have articles about the increased use of food banks. I haven'

I thought he was simply putting forward the comment that some people make - "what's all that gibberish on the screen?", and seeing what she has to say to that.

Much like as has been mentioned of Olympic athletes, the local sports team is rarely local. The players are from everywhere except the locality. The only things local are the stadium and the fans. St Paddy's is fun, but I don't

Useful for launches - a space cable car instead of a space elevator.

Not sure about invented. I guess it could be invented on a local scale, but I saw something similar in South Africa in the early 90's.

The places vary both from one to the next and from hour to hour. The coffee shop closest to me is large, and has a kiddies play area. In the afternoon it is unusable, overfilled, screaming, chaos, but from 5:30pm to 8:00pm closing time it

That is cheap. I'm in west London and looking at £360.

My local library has neither broadband nor toilet, but it does have power, and is always quiet. Crazygringo has described my days well, but I also have to coordinate my library time. There are paid workspaces nearby, which would cost abou

Presumably it's the first thing peaceful states do too.

Precisely why I'm reading this post - in the hope of finding somewhere else. I was hoping there would be more mention of European cities.

The answer to that is Land Value Tax, which can also replace all other taxes.

I don't see the ECB's actions as problematic, rather the fact that there is an ECB. The numerous countries with differing economies using the same currency means that they cannot each be controlled according to their individual n

Agreed, any problem may be better solved by one or the other. What I notice, having never used Clojure, is that the Clojure devs may well finish the implementation while the Scala devs are still discussing the design. Of course, that leve

Context plays a part. The last company I worked at was so arcanist that the majority of new developers were relative agitators or futurists. They wouldn't have been elsewhere. They never stuck around beyond a year, and as the second

Religionists show no consistency in what they consider literal or not. I was raised catholic, am quite seriously offended by religion, and have had more arguments with religionists than I care to remember. What is literal to one person is

Fantastic! After all these years of watching all sorts of interesting ant behaviour, that's a new perspective.

Reduce complexity? In the second week of the course they removed the submission limit and doubled the submission window. The forum was a mass head scratching. Edit: How can you down vote an observation? Feel free to comment instead. I
