I can understand the outrage over content, wokeness, the direction, etc. But being angry over having to pay for services rendered? Come on. Don't use Netflix (or the alternatives) as a comfy Piratebay. Get it together, we're not c

That's just a poor attempt at some cheap poisoning the well from you. The grand difference between the NFT craze and ordinary collecting, is that the latter is not primarily driven by cultish behaviour or the want for Internet Money. I

It isn't, though. I recently started learning Rust and've basically been having to teach myself loops again. For over 10 years, I've not constructed a single loop; I've been getting it done by constructing my program wit

It's more todo with the interplay between a broken (regulated) rental system and a subsequent need for owning instead of renting. One idealogical group thinks that if we have artificially low prices on rental properties, then we can ha

Sure I can. The one you were just holding. You are relying on the meaning of the concept of having or owning, thinking that you don’t have to either define that or rely on a preexisting definition. Whoops.

Didn't I just talk about the hybrid alternative as the third leg of the actual dichotomy? You might still have the opinion that the office culture won't be the same and maybe not as good, and you're entitled to that. I would

That is a false dichotomy. I love working in the office and also really like working from home (or elsewhere, but preferably from home.) It's almost as if there's a third way here; let's just for argument's sake refer to

I honestly don't know but I've had it explained to me that it is the acting on said information that would be considered an offence. Either way: if someone were to do this with an ordinary Joe amount of money, nothing would happen

Acting on non-public information is considered insider trading in Sweden. No friendships required for it to be so.

Common sense is a dumb term because it tends to mean whatever the person invoking it considers good. Having worked as a programmer since 1999, I can say that these things were not part of the processes and ideas when I started, at the place

I agree. And we solve things differently, learn from each other, help each other out, but we're not as interested in consensus. I'll help you do it your way because I accept our differences, and embrace them. We don't file do

Right. They are paying more for the same thing. This is inflation and it's not something we like. You get less BTC for your money. Where is the growth?

N% more fast and X times more fast are equivalent. 10% more fast is 1.1 times more fast. 50% more fast is 1.5 times more fast. 100% more fast is 1 times more fast. 200% more fast is 3 times more fast. N% more fast is 1 + N / 100 times

I understand the point you are making but the problem is that of a conflation and not that of equivalence. The price of gas is 10% higher this week than last week. A.k.a.: the price this week is 1.1 times the previous week. I was going 50%

Something that is 50% faster, is in fact only going half as fast according to you? My car is 1 times faster than yours so it's so much faster that it isn't faster at all. It's just as fast.

It really isn't and it should be trivial to intuit this. What is 1 times faster? If your interpretation is correct, that's not faster at all. Do you stand by this?

Growth is a little bit of a weasel word here though and you'll be well advised to research the difference between multiple expansion and underlying growth. In the world of stock, we don't like multiple expansion as it's a sig

I would say that data defines as something that might convey information, might in the sense that there are one or more interpretations of it that are meaningful to something. This sentence has plenty of open ended terms, however. Code is d
