What does "national law" mean for a global platform though? Does Youtube only have to restore the video in Germany and still block it everywhere else? I don't even understand why Youtube should be forced by a country to host

To almost all of the questions, 90%+ of the advisory board voted no/uncertain, yet FDA completely overrode/ignored their advice... I would understand if it was 50/50, but what's the point of getting an independent board

I'm curious what the privacy labels for Google Maps in Incognito mode would be. The thing with the labels is that you have to list all the labels as if all the features were enabled and set to the least private option. Google maps has

That's the thing, to me, the fact that the information is connected to me is the reason I use Google maps. I understand it's not for everyone, but to me it's a feature, not a bug. The issue with privacy labels also is that yo

That's what many don't realize. Apple shows really fantastic and detailed 3D handcrafted maps each year at WWDC, then when you dig deeper, you find out that it's only for like 3 American cities and it's coming in a year.

Indeed, there are many such explicit omissions in python (switch statements, assignment expressions (before 3.8), increment/decrement operator, etc) that may seem to some as a bug, but it really is an explicit decision and part of what

I honestly prefer that, anything function longer than a line probably could use a name that gives it some context, even maybe a short docstring, to make the code more readable.

Aren't you contradicting yourself a bit? First you claim functional languages are scary to look at, then say that you want Python to become more like functional languages. But maybe the reason Python is elegant and easier to read is ex

Simply wrap it in list(), or use a list comprehension. Most things in python3 are iterators now, so the same thing applies to many things.

I don't understand how this change has anything to do with Windows 11 APK support? Hell, Microsoft didn't even work with Google, considering they're using the Amazon App Store, and this change is specific to Play Store. AFAIK

Hmm, not quite. My point was that if they aren't a good enough programmer to understand why the code is wrong, then chances are they would've written bad code or copy pasted bad code anyways. It just makes the cycle faster. And ag

I see, I think the most useful case for me would be where I write a function signature+docstring, then get a list of suggestions that I can browse and pick from. Do you have examples of what the line ones can do? The site doesn't reall

How is it different from the status quo of people just doing the wrong thing or copy pasting bad code? Yes there's the whole discussion below about float currency values, but I could very well see the opposite happening too, where this
