It is as worthless as the candidates one votes for. More education on the importance of what gets discussed on the EP would make people demand more from the candidates they vote for. Politics and media have an incredible adaptation to mass-

One option would be to follow what the MEPs are up to at http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/map.html , which of course is not perfect, since politics is exactly about the contrary. We vote so we can offload the

Italy currently holds 73 seats on the EU parliament. That puts their vote on the top 5 on influential countries on EU policy ruling (Germany, France, UK, Italy, Spain). If the public was educated enough to know how important their vote is o

Kind of related, I did something similar (as in purpose) for slack [1]. It can be used to set yourself away or... well, it can respond a canned message as you. It also disables the annoying auto-away after 30min. You can even close slack an

So, every 10-15 seconds, there's the chance that one of the requests gets through, and all others are ignored? Sounds like a good enough solution. Still curious about the color configurations though.

It does not sound logical. Every time there's an underwater accident (including plane/helicopter accidents and shipwrecks), popular sentiment is on the same line: "why put lives in danger for dead ones" so there must b

I feel similarly. However the article notes: > Having the bodies would help the families grieve, and would also help to prevent lengthy delays to insurance and inheritance settlements. Risking lives to recover dead bodies does not sound

This script [1] using pybikes would accomplish a similar thing. Only problem with using pybikes natively are some systems we call asynchronous . These are bike share websites that require actually clicking on a station to get the status in

This is just a press release to keep stakeholder value and their relation with MobileEye. Nothing to see here. Stakeholders do not really care if Hotz say that and Musk said what. They just want to know their money is being spent correctly.
