In the US you have young, silly fascism: cops killing anyone who isn't their preferred skin colour in the street. It's all very hateful and not palatable, even for folks that don't think further than the current incident. In

A closed source backend means it shouldn't be used. I would say there is more than enough history in the software world that explains to you why this is the case, even if it is just kind of convenient right in this instant.

No matter what OS underlies it the problems are not simple. No matter how simple the easy case is made, the complex case will stay garbage. When faced with a choice, a sysadmin that might be woken up at 5AM will pick something a bit harder

Question answering and summary generation is miles better with modern AI. What came before does not compare in any way, it is just garbage. If the practical use-case is limited to just this it will be a massive win.

If you use aurora store you use google accounts. Someone else made them for you, but you're still using them.

Honestly this kind of "honest question" is quite depressing: If you don't start out from the understanding that yes, Google is ground reality for most people and yes, the law should protect you from unjust persecution on thos

Ads and shit doesn't exist because there isn't a clear way to extract value. They exist because the folks that make decisions love ads and shit. You will end up paying a subscription for a bad product with few alternatives, just l

Machine guns are in a lot of airports these days, in Europe as well. It is assuredly not strange anymore (though it does come across as hostile and extremely unsafe).

If you get a set of 10 likely characters instead of 40+, that's a big win and also a big threat.

You said clean and dirty. I would say these are proximate measurements meant to be indicative of danger. That means they should be very, very, very similar things. If there's very little overlap you have a maladjusted view of what is d

If someone says something about the salaries explicitly they have numbers in mind and theories on how they should map. That's what I was after, and it's what I got. I think your stance that an average salary does not exist is nons

These levels are entirely in line with what you can expect in Europe unless you are willing to do incredibly unethical work. Even then it is hard to go far over. I'd go so far as to say these are normal salary ranges, even.

A sound stage is not quantifiable, subjective and probably not real. I've heard similar things said many times for a number of audio systems and encodings and in a blind test it is just not discernible IME.

Given poor communication, trivial things lead to conflict. This is the case in every relationship. The takeaway should be that you need to communicate well, not that you need to pay attention to one specific subject.

Can you give an indication of average salary?

Of course, because such requirements are adversarial and make no sense. So they need an adversarial and nonsensical solution :)

To be clear, this is an entirely different model with a different incentive structure from the other one under discussion. It will not have the same issues. You don't want majority appeal, rather you want niche appeal. The more peopl

I think non.io is significantly more accessible and less fringe than stacker.news, which is very heavy on the "love crypto" thing and appears to be a bastion for fairly fringe right-wing thinking. It's so coloured by cultural

Literally the only way to have those things and still give money is to support monero, which is a giant pita for a first draft. Creditcards and other major payment gateways are very easy. If you're serious about services offering such

In every jurisdiction where tax exists a receipt would suffice, which even the most ghetto payment implementation will have (it being the case that the receipt is essentially how the total is made).

The situation described (cannot reproduce) is the standard in modern paper publishing, a significant fraction of even widely cited papers are just full of nonsense. The fact that it is not replicated in big publishers should therefore be so

I believe it is also the case in large parts of the EU and yes, that is the reason why.

If it was so simple, everyone would be doing it correctly. Even you don't give a simple account of what needs to be done. What you have done is talk down to someone else. All in all, I think your entire argument would be a lot more sym

Moral superiority does not exist. Furthermore, I find your discarding of context and the subsequent uncharitable reframing of what I said incredibly unnecessary.
