Most crops are used to feed the animals that are later slaughtered. A tiny amount is directly consumed by humans. So you're not actually reducing the number of animals killed by eating them.

This is often repeated but the data is way more noisy than this comment implies. For example this chart for Asian countries does have Iran on one side and Japan on the other, but it also have Korea way higher than Japan and Cambodia way low

Sure it would be. Mostly because I use Github every day. The first time I tried to create a pull request it probably took me almost as much time to figure out how Github works. But compared how much time is saved for reviewers by having a b

It's true that Gerrit's workflow is a bit unusual, but even though I had no experience with it, I managed to setup the environment and create a review request for Golang in under an hour. When it comes to contributing to a progra

I think this would (or should) be called N+1. Edit: but you're right, this might be what they mean.

by hamax 9y ago
N+2 usually means one redundancy for normal operations (deploys, maintenance) and one for disruptions. If the disruption happens while there is an ongoing maintenance, you'll be resilient for one event only.

This will sound like a strange suggestion, but think about collecting people's emails and sending out an email every quoter or so with a list of conferences. Of all the newsletters I wouldn't mind this one at all.

Usual advice, as far as I know, is to lose max 1% of body weight per week. Please ask your doctor if 3kg/week is fine.

If someone enjoys torturing animals for fun do you feel fine legalizing it? Dog fights used to be very popular, but for some reason most people find it unacceptable even though those dogs probably had/have better lives than most farm a

I don't understand how secrets being committed to the same repository implies anything you've written. They don't have to be compiled in. For parallel environments we simply have multiple configs in repository. One per env (e

Can you expand on this? We're doing encrypted secrets in config that get decrypt by aws kms on application startup and it's been working quite well for us.

The comment is implying things that aren't true. This is why it's low quality and downvoted. The fact that you don't know who Soros is doesn't change that.

by hamax 10y ago
The comment is probably downvoted because it's a popular conspiracy theory that Google blocks bad suggestions about specific people the "liberal establishment" supports. In reality Google hides all bad suggestions about peopl

Statistics in this article are so misleading it's hard to see it as anything other then deliberate. From the raw data, 4.95% of democrats are on welfare compared to 3.48% of republicans (Total number of people on welfare in the poll is

It includes both fake and biased news (and a couple of other categories). Neither Breitbart or Drudge Report are marked as fake in the dataset.

Is variable assignment in c/java/... unreliable? It behaves very similar to what C* does. Concurrent access and modification will produce undefined behaviour if you don't explicitly protect it.

by hamax 10y ago
No, it's a users choice to use a DB that has this tradeoff. Like it was said a couple of time already, all of your complaints about C* would work just as well for locking mechanisms in most popular languages.
53.
by hamax 10y ago
The only way for C* to know that it should raise an error is if it would implicitly protect all writes with LWT and this is not what most users want. Following the parent's example, if you don't protect memory access with a lock,

Apparently our interpretations of the article are very different. Most of the paragraphs are criticising obama and democrats that supported his efforts.
