Yeah, conveniently leave out that Scotland was threatened back then with not being accepted into the EU if they left the UK, and also the fact that ~60% of Scots voted to remain in the EU. Because those two things aren't relevant.

Well, so far curing and preventing illnesses is how we've extended life. There's room for an argument that, after we're done with all current major illnesses, we'll still have to solve the problem of debilitating aging t

It might be that I just don't follow the topic, but cryogenic hibernation sounds to me like just a science fiction idea with no real advancement ever having happened. Curing illnesses, instead, we do constantly and steadily. So the lat

The thing is, suspicion is a function not of you being innocent or guilty, but of the knowledge and mental model law enforcement has, so far, of what happened. To prevent suspicion before they get to learn you're innocent, you probab

Berkeley's response was actually that they'll rather use the funds to create content that's both accessible and not old. So they do have the funds, and are using them in a smarter way.

I'm not understanding your case much. Proto3 does not serialize zeros/false, precisely because it'd be a waste without a benefit. After deserialization, the value is as equal to zero as if the zero had been written on the wir

I don't know if iOS does randomization of loading addresses, but if so, that'd be a disadvantage. And well, in any case they need to maintain compatibility with current apps for who knows how many years.
