Yeah, they also called indigenous people “savages”. Back in those days stuff like that was still not clear. However, when creating the constitution, they put a lot of thought on the system it should follow. Like I said: direct democracy is

How I’m I saying that? I don’t even mention fascism. I’m saying that representative parliament works, and there’s a way to solve this using this worldwide system. Direct democracy is not what we have, America’s founders considered it “anarc

Yeah, it’s the advantage of seeming the oppressed one... let’s hope that common sense prevails :)

Sure but now you’re deciding what parts of the constitution you obey and which ones you don’t. That just doesn’t scale. If you want to modify the constitution you need 2/3 of the senate. There’s a procedure for that. There no excuse to

What forces are you talking about? The fascist killed Spaniards from all Spain, not only Catalonia. In any case, the republic was outspokenly against the Catalan independence. Azaña was quoted to write in a letter “before alllwing for an in

Yup, pretty much. There IS a procedure for modifying the constitution, and it requieres 2/3 of the senate to agree.

My point is: How would you react if a regional government (which represent 30-40% of the people there) in your country stops obeying the constitution? Would you not stop the privacy infringement that is using census data ilegally? Would you

You’re not in a democracy, it’s a representative parliament system. Same almost worldwide. There’s a difference. Many of modern so called democracies though referendums are not the best way to solve these issues. Read up on how it worked fo

This is the thing: the referendum is ilegal according to constitution (agreed on by Catalans in the 70s). We can debate if it should or should not be ilegal, but it’s a different thing. These actions are taken to avoid violating the constit

I know it’s hard to not take parts with the “oppressed” but: You must know that this referendum was approved without reading the bill in the Catalonian parliament, so the opposition couldn’t even have a say. Even the vicepresident of the ch

Good points. For the record: I'm not saying all veterans are egotistical. I think code based performance is something that is just not as big as an issue as before. In web world it's common to solve extreme performance via cache,

Fair enough. I just never allow for duplicate code. I don't wait for duplicate code to be present on three clases, I attack the problem the first time.

I only really agree with #3. #1 – It should be swift and easy to extract code, if not that's a different problem. #2 – You need to be patient and research ahead. You don't really have an option if you're in a big project. You

This just seems like poor justification for laziness. You need to keep a project clean. This means profound refactors when concepts for the product change. Some rules are: - Keep it readable - Don't over engineering - Easy to remove -

Don't listen, this thing is amazing. Kudos! This is a wonderfully hacked project, exactly what I come to find in HACKER news. Incredible, kudos again!

Best mac I ever had is my Hackintosh. I built a fusion drive for it and use Clover instead of Chimera for a boot loader, so I can update from major versions without trouble. I've never had any issues, i just shop for compatible chipset

Well, it turns out I've been a stoic all this time, I'm finding out. It blows me away how that part about taking every problem as a chance to learn and become a better "wrestler" fits right in with my natural conclusions

No, of course not. Anybody who thinks this probably misunderstands craft and art.
