I didn't see Russian listed anywhere on there, but I suspect it would be in the top 20 on this list. It is a pretty straightforward base 10 complicated by archaic phonetic rules that change the pronunciation and stress of words with l

I’d be interested in reading more about this. That employee changed Amazon’s future (and indeed the future of computing in general) immensely. I hope he/she was fairly compensated and relaxing on a beach far from Seattle now.

Could you elaborate? Do you believe all moon landings were fake, or just some? What about unmanned landings?

Ah, that’s interesting. I always just assumed everything I was using inherited IEnumerable somewhere way down the line. Thought it’s possible that was the case too. It’s been a few years for me and I didn’t do much outside of standard libra

Thanks. This does look very nice. How does the runtime know if you can “Deconstruct” an object? Is there an interface that every Object inherits? Or is it implicit based on whether the object implements the appropriate method? If the latter

Precisely. GMT does not change with Summer time, though the time in Greenwich (and teh rest of the UK) does. [0] [0] https://greenwichmeantime.com/uk/time/british-summer-time/

I think the $28 million was for the whole round, not just Branson's part. Though that would be quite the deal if he ended up netting $500 million from eavesdropping while on vacation.

As an aside, what is the range for "low six figures?" I hear this term a lot, and it seems ambiguous to me. If I hear "low 90's" I can reasonably assume between 90-93, but what does low six figures mean? Is it 10

It's amazing how much we take for granted now. It's not worth my time to consider color palettes and manually encoding images in a binary blob, but to the craftsmen and women who worked on this game, it really mattered. I'm

That's great! I hope it works out that way for you and your community. I'll probably get the game when I get back to my gaming PC after the holidays. Please add me to the short list for early mod testing when you start to roll

This game looks neat. I see you've got some custom aircraft/airline support on the Steam workshop. Do you have any plans for greater mod/plugin support?

There is certainly a place for a discussion of issues at a national level. While the Times certainly covers issues of international import, it is most likely to affect policy (or influence individuals) at the US level. In addition, while t

This gets to the fundamental question of what is moral. Many people have their own definitions, or traditions handed down for what is moral, but most of these codes never even consider PEDs, and yet a lot of people seem to dislike them. Fo

In reality, I think the only way to do this is just not to let the email leave the bounds of their own servers for x seconds, and then only if the user hasn't canceled in the meantime. Maybe it's possible to do if you host the em

I am beyond excited for this event. I'm traveling to the totality on Friday/Saturday just in case. I think the media/online buzz over this event will be overwhelming, and frankly, I'm glad. Our country could really us

This exchange is likely to get lost in the noise, but I just want to tell both of you how much I appreciate your willingness to give and receive this kind of feedback. It is so hard to get messaging just right when text is your only medium

What was the significance of the '3615' in all the service codes? Was this just a common prefix like 'www' in web addresses?

This is true, however it is generally accepted that proto-humans had much higher constitutions as well as greater general resistance to fire, water, etc... due to their lack of advanced structural dwellings and plate armor. If this is the c

I wonder if good VCS could solve this problem. For instance, if he documented each step with comments/commits in the code as well as he did for this blog post, it would be easy to go back and see not only why he did what he did, but t

I'm maybe not that experienced, but I do think that FB/Google are fundamentally different. Microsoft and IBM's 'products' depreciated very quickly. 5-year old software just isn't worth as much as brand new

I have the same experience as yours. Of the 7-8 AirBNBs I have stayed at, only 1 felt like a hotel (it was in Hong Kong, and the cheapest place I could find.) On the other hand, some of my best travel experiences have been eating meals wit

Would you consider streaming/broadcasting yourself doing a project like this? I think it would be interesting to pop in and watch you work, especially if once every couple hours you provided some commentary about your thought process

That is interesting. I can see the logic there, mostly I'm just impressed that both sites maintain a critical mass of activity, since (at least in recent years) SX seems to require a pretty high level of engagement to get out of perpe
