It's weird but the computer can choose not to cheat and forget the answer when guessing. Not possible for humans.

You can still verify the result of an automatic merge. It's simpler to mark a suggestion "y" than to resolve conflicts that could be solved automatically by hand. So I don't think this reasoning holds any ground whatsoev

No, it's pure fanboying. The rename behavior in particular is still not a settled issue.

The most popular deep learning frameworks use CUDA and do not have stable OpenCL support out of the box. It's worse than that. The popular frameworks use cuDNN, which is a hand (assembler) optimized library for common operations. AMD

I think they'd prefer an alternative punishment (because that's what they get if there's no room in Belgium). IIRC there was protest against the transfers.

This isn't a problem with insurance. You just let the ones without die off. It's a problem because humans are wussies that can't live with their decisions.

If you are a healthy and/or young person, your rate will always go up in any social system. There no way around this. Germany has universal healthcare, but high income citizens can (could?) opt out to private insurance. It's good

The problem with this reasoning (and by extension, any system where there's a possibility to opt out of healthcare) is that if you have a serious ailment that you can't afford to treat, we have to let you die. But I believe even

Who would ship the ffmpeg though? It's filled to the brim with heavily patented codecs. That's also why the browsers don't support H265. Note that Chromium and Firefox don't support H264 either exactly due to the patents

If there are standard UI interactions that are used by all programs but yours, then yes, being different is worse. For all the bad things you can say about it, IIRC the windows in Emacs (when running on X) behave like normal windows.
