A sternly worded letter at the utmost but german judges are free to judge how they see fit and aren't bound by things like existing caselaw, any the law as they interpret it. And the LG Hamburg simply interprets the law in the worst wa

This has been another INSANE ruling by the courts in Hamburg. They are well known to be little more than industry stooges and I can't count how many insane of their insane rulings have been overruled by higher courts.

Well GDP is not the only measure of human development, for example child mortality has more than halved since the 1990s https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SH.DYN.MORT?locations=Z... I'd call that a sucess stor

While I disagree with your conclusion due to the measurable increases in human development through our aid, i am somewhat sympathetic to your argument on a philosophical level. That being said, most of the HN Crowd would still cry over the

So did the british in india, yet somehow india isn't a british colony anymore. What an impossible thing to have happened, almost as if peaceful revolution is not the same as all out total war against a superior power. But then again, t

You don't need to defeat them in open war, as if France would mount an all out war to "save" their colonies from a peaceful revolution. Worked for India but that was impossible too I guess? But thats not what those poor oppre

Glad im not american. But I guess we should just stop "exploiting" them. Let's just stop all trade and aid for under developed countries and let them catch up a century or two, maybe then they are civilised enough to join us

This is utter marxist bullshit in its finest form. The "under"-developed world has been given trillions in aid and almost every statistic shows that they are doing better than ever before [1]. This is due to capitalism and billion

I have found that asking "stupid questions" in the form of "I don't understand X, can you explain it to me?" is very valuable, as it forces people to agree on a common interpretation of an issue. In fact, most techn

Having read foundation and seen the show so far they are two very different stories and the show is mostly just off hand references to the ideas of the books. That doesn't necessarily make it a bad show though, because there's a l

This is the result of selling "development boards" as quasi customer ready products and outsourcing the costly development to the community. Any device that isn't 100% upstream and supporting everything you want to do with it

This really is a weird decision! And a closed source Browser, too. There was money involved in that decision, i guarantee it. Now talking about browsers since firefox's market share seems directly corrlated to the inverse of their CEOs
