   I suppose it should be able to split up into multiple personalities and choose the suitable one for a chat partner.

   Cool, but it would be more useful if they had a npm module for accessing the service.

   Interesting - well I thought if it is being used by thousands of libraries it might be worth optimizing. I just tried in NodeJS, you could also just instantiate an Array of a given length and join it with spaces, like this. var x = new Arra

   What I don't get about Left-Pad, shouldn't they have used Arrays.join for better perormance?

   GPUs have developed a lot. I had a high-end card a couple of years ago, and now I can barely run Elite: Dangerous. For the upcoming VR headsets I would definitely need a new GPU. Apple doesn't even have a computer on offer that would b

   I can be "not wrong" and sad at the same time. A newer PC would likely be much faster, resulting in less stress and less wasted time.

   Well you could just say we are an Amish country now, and divide everything by Amish rules. Are there too many people already for all of them to be able to go Amish? I've read sometime ago that the Amish population doubles in regular in

   Sure, although my heuristic for trying new Software methodology tends to be "does it make things simpler?". That article made my head hurt...

   It's democracy and everybody is entitled to vote for their own benefit. When cars where invented, horse breeders should have voted for laws against cars. Still, not sure if the typical worker can really be sure they are a net loser? Th

    And communism would work if only people would do it properly. It seems to me that kind of argument could be made about anything. "It only didn't work because you didn't do it properly". Doesn't it work for Homeopath

    Already I am confused: are women the same as men, that is, they make the same kind of movies. In which case, why explicitly include them? Or are they different from men and make different movies? Then perhaps he simply didn't like them

    Are women making roughly the same type of films as men? Maybe his list simply reflected his interests?

    Wouldn't it be sufficient to monitor what people publish on social media? How many extremists have not posted violent threats on YouTube before going on their shooting spree?

    I've used occasions when I had the flu to quit, figuring that I feel shitty anyway, so the withdrawal symptoms won't matter that much. Of course eventually I took it up again - unfortunately after a couple of weeks of withdrawal,

    I think AdSense used to warn of possibly lower earnings when switching to HTTPS, because somehow less ads are available over HTTPS. Is that still the case?

    We would just have to add some toxic substances to the plastic to keep the microbes down :-/

    So is uBlock origin legit? I'm not that opposed to ads, but browsing without blocker frequently brings my Computer to a halt. Doesn't Google offer a way to pay instead of seeing Google ads?

    Presumably the book has all the answers. I'm not planning on reading it, though.

    "Yes, courts are substantially biased in favor of men in contested custody cases; men end up with custody less often in divorce because men are less likely to seek custody." More likely, men only go to court when they see a chance

    Fathers who don't live in the same household as their kids are still fathers...

    The article wasn't about single mothers, though. In fact it cited not having to have kids as one of the benefits of being single.

    Because the author is a single woman who wants to sell her book. Actually there are already lots of people living as singles, and there isn't really that much of a pressure to get married. She is building up a straw man to make her boo

    Interesting idea, although I am not sure which places I would trust enough. Even my home can be broken into. I'm actually working on getting all my data encrypted, even at home, because of the nightmare scenario of a thief getting all

    Sure, but there is a reason mothers get it and fathers don't. My post was in reply to the assumption that everybody wants to work instead of staying at home with the kids. I know just by staying at home you are not free of all worries.

    What do you mean? According to urban dictionary, ftyf means "fixed that for you"? How does your statement contradict mine?

    There are the famous taxi drivers of London with their enlarged brain regions for geo-spatial whatever. Recently I seem to have read several articles claiming people who keep learning tend to be less affected by Alzheimer.

    Do you really engineer something like HDFS just like that? Or does it take a lot of time, several people, many failed attempts,...?
