> Just imagine if Github suddenly decide to block Chinese users like they did for Iranian users Wait I thought India blocked github, not that github blocked India. Or has there been a whole thing I've missed?

A mortgage is a lot of money, how can so many people not be reading them?

And coming up after the break we will hear all about how water makes things wet!

The pessimist in me thinks this is just stalling and they will re-enable these features when the heat has died down but with less fanfare

Imagine if water was heroin, would be so casual about plumbing?!

It could be a straw that broke the camels back type situation. Additionally they may have already decided to move, but this made them choose Tulsa over other places

Just not saying controversial shit on twitter will only get you so far, as someone could just post what you said to twitter

Can confirm. I have a video which was already open and still plays. Interestingly I closed the tab and opened that video again and it still worked. I'm in Sydney

It is also vastly more urbanised than the US, most of Australia lives in a few areas that are pretty densely populated. We aren't all living in tiny communities in the middle of nowhere, Australia's population is hugely coastal. I

I disagree that the author just isn't a fan of change. The old ones are definitely more readable/distinct and in my opinion there is value in that. Of course everyone will stop talking about it in 2 weeks, there isn't all tha

The issue on Android also happens for me. I honestly assumed it was a deliberate dark pattern to encourage installing the app

Also you could just have two different accounts, buy the file, compare the two files and identify any differences, overwrite the differences with blanks/gibberish

I wish so much I could work less days even if I was getting paid less, but nobody wants someone not doing 5 days it seems like.

I worry that for me the regularity of the 9 to 5 is the problem, rather than what it is I'm doing from 9 to 5. I'm not sure if that is definitely the case, but I feel like I'd be so much better off if I could be in a situatio

I mean, sure and that sucks for them but I kinda think that is part of the risk of being an agent. Don't want to get killed by foreign governments? Then don't go and do espionage in their countries. These are agents who have mater

I.... I'm having a hard time understanding why anyone would have a moral problem with that? It isn't even 100 active CIA agents who have nothing to do with Russia, apparently these agents actively damaged them.

Not who you asked but because people have lives built where they are living and they don't necessarily want to move to an entirely different continent away from their favourite people and places even if they could be making more money?

It is really a case by case thing. I have ADD but with chemical treatment I'm basically fine and don't need other intervention. I go in to see someone a few times a year to get another prescription but I didn't really need an

I'm definitely a collectivist when it comes to many things, and this is one of them. I just explained myself poorly. I think we should have legislation that prevents this kind of data vacuuming, or at least makes it more transparent to

My music player app has an equalizer function

I do care about people's data in general, but also I don't recall the documentation for the device pushing the app much or at all and instead just suggesting you use whatever your device's way of connecting to bluetooth devic

I've been using my Sony W-1000XM3s with my Android phone for months and I haven't had to install an app. The only thing the app would get me is a bunch of equalizer shit (which my music player could do and I never use anyway), dyn

I did Comp Sci, didn't live on campus, and certainly didn't need a lot of hand holding (I won the dean's medal), but I definitely think the on campus experience was worth it. I find in person lectures more engaging and pleasa

I disagree that it insists on that. You can be part of the world but the world is still external to you.

The way you ask it sure. I'm just not sure that is how everyone asks it, though maybe it is. I've never been asked something quite like that before but some comments I've seen around seem to imply some people want a close to

I suppose it depends on how you grade the answers. Like I have bad spatial awareness in terms of how big things like planes are. I genuinely don't really have an idea how long a commercial airliner is, or how big a ping pong ball is. I

I agree it is easier to use a key, but the reason owners don't break windows is that is damaging. The main reason a thief wouldn't want to is that is loud and suspicious looking, much more likely to be noticed. People seeing someo

It also went unnoticed with me for the longest time. I only noticed the issues when I had finished high school, because before then I could do pretty well just doing all my assignments the night before. It didn't occur to me I had an a

For me I think the reason I can't do a thorough job on my own code is down to a combination of two reasons: 1) Testing my own code is boring. I keep thinking about what it should do and then taking shortcuts where I don't test eve
