Countries that do have such "regulators", as you call them, aren't that much different from that, though. Most of the work these bodies do is just more professional approach to what you described. It's just observing how

This isn't even comparable. You are talking about the language invented 100 years ago, which is the mother tongue for many people now, they literally are born and raised speaking Hebrew. Of course they will have some sort of accent.

I don't get it. These examples are kinda uninspiring, generated SQL output being unnecessarily complicated doesn't help. I haven't used PRQL, but at least it's pretty obvious from examples, how it's nicer to use tha

The real issue is somebody popularized this absolutely nonsensical idea that filesystems could be case-insensitive. They cannot. "A", "a" and "а" (Cyrillic) are different characters with different codepoints,

I'm not trying to justify netlify, because it's pretty obvious all cloud providers have vile intentions here (even though they pretend otherwise): it's obvious that total majority of use cases for such platforms are toy or sm

This is such an obvious solution. Kinda crazy that the whole world uses Debian and such, while this exists since 2002 (it's older than Ubuntu). I mean, yeah, I didn't switch to NixOS despite it being "obviously better" t

You seem to be falling into this common trap of confusing "finding a human's body hiding offline in mountains of Pakistan" and "figuring out the name of a guy thinking he is shitposting anonymously on the internet"

> probably failed That's silly. The fact that you don't know who somebody is says nothing about what some "state-backed actor" knows. If anything, I'm fairly confident that some people in NSA/CIA know who he

It's all jokes in this thread, but I wonder if there's any substance to such high praise. Is this just that, a praise? Or are there some traits of his that would make this plausible? Can I learn these traits? I mean, surely I coul

Thanks. That's the explanation I was looking for.

So from this article I learned that Scott Alexander started a new blog on substack after notorious incident with slatestarcodex. Cool, but what's the point to change the platform, if all the older posts are linked on About page anyway

What's your definition of dirt cheap? These don't seems cheap by any means.

What are use-cases for this? I mean, obviously detecting the filetype is useful, but we kinda already have plenty of tools to do that, and I cannot imagine, why we need some "smart" way of doing this. If you are not a human, and y

Well, that's the GP's point, I guess: this thing was called "Business analyst", and, honestly, I don't know what being a domain-expert with somewhat above-average computer skills has to do with "data science

Honestly, though, given more sophisticated browser-native selectors were implemented way after jQuery was, I wonder why didn't they just make at least somewhat jQuery-compatible API. It's just way simpler.

Honestly, I don't imagine this being a good idea. The problem it solves is pretty clear, and it's easy to see how one attains the desire to solve that, but is it really that kind of problem which should be solved? It is kinda

The only place I've noticed this is Telegram UI, and this really throws me off every time. There's absolutely no way to tell if it's a multiple-choice and since you usually cannot just un-vote in Telegram, it is very confusin
