I wonder what the license it. The guy from copy.sh promised to make it open source, but didn't yet. Can I hope?

She got a medal for fighting a surveillance state (historically quite questionable, btw) by a Obama. And now she has to learn that Obama is no better.

I don't know what you are referring to. But for a americanophile who sees the USA as the leader of the free world and protector of human rights that a way more shocking than if a known police state does it. Et tu, Brute?

Why does a language have a word for such a thing? Is it common? I haven't even thought about the possibility of the existence of such a thing till now.

Ok, Occams razor is sexist? /edit: Also there is sound evidence that psychology tends to biases the interest in technical stuff toward the male gender. /edit 2: I'd like to answer, but it seem I'm banned. There is my rep

Where is the sexism in that post? Or racism?

If i could downvote you, I would. Mocking a statement that says that mocking does not help to prove your point is pretty much the worst thing you can do in a conversation.

Evopsych is mostly esoteric. But denying a influence of evolution on psychology (nature vs nurture) and/or differences based on that is for the left wing what creationism is for the right. Evolution denialism seems to be very popular i

Interesting. But I'm looking for the opposite. I often have to access my phone, kindle, whatever data, but do not want to charge it. But I guess the usb controller will not accept a data-only connection.

I don't see the point of HH. There are valid reasons to use php. IMO they are: A existing codebase and the fact it is installed everywhere. But HH is neither installed everywhere nor will the old codebase be compatible. Why not use a p

Ok, two modifiers are proably more annoying. Is the Alt-Gr plane not big enough? I have serveral Symbols there that i never ever need, like ðæł¶ŧ←↓→øħħ̣ĸ . Are there essential Cyrillic characters?

Sorry, but the thing about the layout is BS. I code with a german layout. You have the use the Alt-Gr modifier a lot, but in the end it's not harder to use than a shift key.

How many cases has english? While there are some artifacts like "whom", "I" vs "me", about two.

But psychiatry and psychology do not have much in common. Psychiatrists are medicals doctors treating the organ "brain". It's pretty much interchangeable with neuroscience. And before once changes, one should reason very care

Exactly. If you want to live on liquids alone you could just stick to milk. I know a cheap person that lived on nothing but oats and milk for quite a while to save money. Nothing I'd do for a new laptop or other equipment.

I do not have many experience with postfix languages. I mostly use RPL for simple ad-hoc programs, and I dynamic stack effects all the time. Mostly for logging and for error messages. In the "real world" one would not do that, so

That is probably because you have no font installed with a rho in it.

IMO a types stack languages does not make much sense. If the stack side effect is typed a function does alway have to return the same number of arguments and consume the same number. That IMO takes the by far biggest advantage of postfix l

I'm a big fan of my HP-28 calc and it's RPL. The programming language might seem odd, but on a device with (soft) keys that map to commands it makes sense. I was thinking about building my own physical calculator (i don't lik
