This is the first thing to get, the second is that Monty won't pick the car. If you do not understand these two, then you will say 1/2. I've heard the analogy with 1 000 doors and opening 998 of them before but that doesn&#x2

And also by buying electricity from Sweden, which causes my bills to explode. (Because we've also shuttered half of our nuclear facilities.) So when Germany buys enough, we start our oil powerplants to cover :)

I'm 45 and my tolerance for shit is virtually non-existent so I can only imagine what 49 implies :)

I can see a scenario where you do accept the golden handcuffs during a critical period of your life. Of course provided that it really is a very high salary. I.e.: simply doing it for the money for a couple of years to move the personal fin

Plus: you really shouldn't accept to be paid off like that. Take the other offer and move on, otherwise they have you by the proverbials...

I'm saying that the productivity gain would have to be incredibly large since it has to encompass a doubled output of features and bug fixes for a net zero change. Say you have product A with features P, Q, R, and S; writing product B

The big problem there is that the people you are letting loose on the alternative, are lost from the original, so O loses steam that A gains. You still have to produce bug fixes and features to _both_ O and A to keep them in sync. So you es

And also: retries needed until last bug is fixed.

Social media is weird when it comes to taxation. Are you for taxes or not? Is it the poor that are buying these un-taxed pools?

Sure, variable costs matter less with less use. I guess the difference in fuel efficiency is not that great, then. A lower insurance (which is my guess/ opinion!) and a lower lease cost has a greater explanation value.

by hurril 3y ago
I understand the argument you're making but I don't see how it makes sense. If fuel is the biggest cost, which it is last time I checked, then fuel efficiency becomes something that affects the financial margins. So it has to be s

Cool off period? I am calm as a jug of yoghurt my dear Internet friend :) It seems to me that it would be educational for you to read a little about how trademarks work. The stuff that you direct at me has thorough explanations; these are n

This is true but it is also a distinction without meaningful difference. Transferring money from your account in Bank A to one i Bank B poses the same "problem." It's not Bank A bux to Bank B bux, it's $currency. But wha

And... then? You would essentially need a homomorphic hash function for that to work. I.e.: [ a, b, c ].map(hash) produces the same order. where hash: A -> B, where p, q in A. p < q => x, y in B. x < y.

Are you asking me to defend Disney's actions because I side with Rust at this point? I think that it is fair that someone defends their name and brand and I definitely wish that you be permitted to do so, so that someone is unable to b

They are trademarks, though, are they not? Should I be permitted to fork Go an call it Rust? learnrust.com with fine resources to learn ru.. I mean go, no wait. Rust. Definitely rust. I am a user of Rust and I am neither dumb nor little, bu

Do you think they would care if you started a company named Oracle?

No, what is happening is a storm in a glass of water. _This_ is what is hurting the language and the environment. You have to protect trademarks or you lose them. Having a late change to a conference is definitely bad and sad but there is s

If someone resigns over this, then I would say that the right people are resigning. Very sad to see competence go but rage quit over this? Come on. Come back tomorrow. Nothing has happened. Please!

The examples all look like something I can do today in any modern functional language. What if I told you that you do not have to stick with Java or C#?

While there seems to be a difference in how they perceived what the stated problem actually was (where Knuth interpreted it as a call for a pedagogically laid out solution and McIlroy seemingly didn't?) I disagree with your conclusion

I agree with this sentiment but this isn't Netflix' fault (nor is it any of the other service providers'.) But then this still comes down to a sense of entitlement: I should be able to have access to anything and even though

I can't be arsed with the piracy bullshit any more. The reason that I've not canceled Netflix even though only using it pretty rarely, is that it's still very cheap and I have the "biggest" option. 179 SEK a month i

So of the two alternatives: pay $X for a full subscription or pay $X * 0.2 for a shared one, you are choosing to pay $0 because it is annoying to pay money compared to not paying money? If it's not good enough to warrant either $X or $

No, it is not. It's using woke in its actual definition do describe a set of considerations and changes that lots of people don't appreciate. Compare with: right-wing, left-wing, christian, etc. Woke. I don't want HBO Max to

I understand this and will grant you that. But I'd bet a fair chunk of cash on this password sharing being something other than spouses sharing or running a de facto family account. I mean: fine, Netflix sux, etc, tt's not worth $

Fascinating to get downvoted for saying: pay for things you use. I hope you're proud of yourselves. My salary comes from people that buy product from my employer. What you're saying is that I should work for free for you guys. (No
