Not sure I agree. I have Netflix, but I even torrent their shows so I can watch if my internet craps out. There are also numerous annoyances, such as shows split across multiple services, lots of exclusive shows, and of course a lot of olde

It was the only deal with the red lines May had declared. Johnson was willing to compromise, so a different deal could be struck. A different deal could also be struck if the UK were willing to stay fully in the customs union or otherwise w

Hmm, at the moment I have not robots.txt. Is there anything I can do to make it archive.org friendly?

most of these seems reasonable, but they are not big enough for me to actively dislike the language. The capitalisation is maybe the most annoying for me, I think it was designed with an IDE in mind (which would be able to automatic update

I'm having the opposite problem. I want a site I admin added back to the Wayback Machine, the previous owner of the domain got it removed. It seems really hard to get anyones attention, I've tried email and twitter...

At least one aggrevating factor seems to me to be the fault of the airlines. They were so busy adding fees to checked-in luggage that everybody now tries to stuff everything into their carry-on. If the majority of people's luggage was

Why is it not a great replacement for Java? My experience have been opposite, C++ still have its place, but Go has taken over where previously maybe Java would be reached.

This is interesting, but I don't believe it's all that surprising. Medieval Europe was very well connected. Alfred himself went to Rome when he was a child and had an extensive cultural exchange with mainland Europe. It is also we

I don't know where the accompanying picture is from, but definitely not Tonki. Tonki is really really good (it's the only one from that list I've been to), it's also a bit pricey at around 2300yen for a portion, but in m

In Denmark at least you can get a new ballot by returning the unused one.

Is there a video of the talk?

If anyone reading this lives in the UK, Digging for Britain (can't remember which episode) did an interesting bit on this digside and should still be on iPlayer.

As have already been pointed out most of these points ARE being addressed by the Go community, but it kinda reminded why I look towards Go 2.0 with some dread. Most of these things that he is asking for are things that will make the languag

It was not the ad that was deemed too political. The problem was that it was made by a political organization. If Iceland had made it themselves, it would likely have been fine.

Just because something is inappropriate at work, it doesn't follow that your employer should have carte blanche to breach your privacy on the off chance that you are doing it.

I don't own a Mac, so I'm asking out of curiosity, but does this apply when it's plugged in as well?

I don't think the EU are being easy on the UK. The UK press certainly does not feel the EU is being easy :D. The EU are being very clear what their negotiation stance is and they are not really budging. For most people, the fact that t

Well, you as an individual would be given the shorter stick, I can see that. But I feel Europe as a whole would be richer for it, just as Britain have benefitted from immigration (despite their refusal to acknowledge this). In addition, as

As an EU citizen I would have no issue granting free movement to British Citizen even after Brexit. The British are valuable for Europe both economically and culturally and I don't see why a bunch of Xenophobes should be allowed to pun

I love the new Firefox, but the fact that it killed my favourite tabtree plugin, and the alternative is less nice + plus you have to do weird css hacks to make it look seemless and hide the top tab bar is very disappointing. I'm guessi

Small corrections: while he did indeed have a rivalry with Leibnitz (over who invented Calculus), Leibnitz was German, and therefor not likely to be chair of the Royal Society. You are probably thinking of Hooke whom he also had a rivalry w

Interesting enough article, however it's a bit odd captioning a Japanese woman using (presumably) a Japanese typewriter with the text "Early Chinese typewriters had thousands of keys to search through."

I guess it's largely a response to terrorism, but I routinely see heavily armed policemen at various tube stations.

I lived in Japan for 4 years, and afterwards felt in many ways similar, it's a place that can take a lot out of you, especially if you have expectations of fitting in. That said, in my 4 years there, the police was never anything but p

If anyone enjoyed this, I can recommend Voices From Chernobyl by Svetlana Alexievich (who won the Nobel a few years ago). It's basically the same thing, but more and more in depth. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/produ
