Stallman is huge. Practically you cannot appoint someone to his position. FSF is meaningless without him. If you could, this would have happened when they fired him.

Yeah, because these incentives matter for the fertility :)

Marriage is only worse, but having kids without marriage comes with most of the same risks and inequalities. Like what are the chances that the father gets custody?

* (policy) - If things don't work out, your wife will divorce you, take half of what you have and enslave you to pay her support for the next 15 years. Actually, she might do that just because she needs more passion while you are hard

Am I the only one who actually thinks that a SPA is simpler than server rendered UI? I always go for a SPA when I can sacrifice indexability and never seem to regret it.

This. Besides, there is only one measure that has been proven to reliably increase business climate and thus GDP - lower taxes and bureaucratic weight. And Europe is heading in exactly the opposite direction.

My experience with Copilot is the other way around. I spend time writing my types/data structures, my functions, then Copilot tends to easily spit several variations of the test by just me giving it the name of the test.

I am the opposite. With time I have grown to be rather neutral and maybe slightly negative on the topic of programming and CS, but I love solving real-world problems and producing working solutions. I am content with having to program in or

We need them to starve just a little bit and the world will start becoming a much better place. Most of our (EU's) problems are literally caused by Germany's double standards over the past 20 years.

Never... ever... get emotionally attached to your work. You wrote some curly braces, you got paid. That's it. Move on.

This fascination with "being remembered" is strange. We shouldn't optimize for being remembered (or being easy to reconstruct archaeologically). We should try to not vanish. If we do vanish, why do we care about being remembe

I didn't say "similar" games, just games that are better suited for humans than computers.

I'd love to watch robot football (the European variety) where robots beat humans. If they can do that, it's probably singularity time (or robot apocalypse). I agree that puzzles are fun, but cheating will be a problem for the comp

Well, cycling is plagued with lots of similar problems (doping, people hiding electric motors in their bikes etc.), so yeah, I would argue the same there. On the other hand the very act of cycling improves health, so it's much more sui

Isn't it time to just abandon chess as a competitive sport? It's (mostly) a solved game for f* sake, move on. I will probably be downvoted to oblivion, but I'm absolutely serious and would love constructive commentary. What&#

What? So the iPhone is unusable in countries that have no esims offered? Or will this force operators in such countries to start offering esims?

A more suitable comparison would be whether the US's (or Germany's) healthcare system is more or less regulated compared to 50 years ago. Now also look at the pricing.

by loxs 4y ago
Did you miss the part where exactly these things suffer the most from regulation? How long until we mostly cannot afford healthcare for the middle class? Aren't we already somewhat there?

I think that if you are obsolete (and that's a big if), it's not because of languages you don't know, but because of jobs you can't/won't do. For me personally, that was writing (web) UIs. Learning JS/TS +

Yeah, it can hurt the price (as the implosion of LUNA/UST did). Of course. Will it obliterate it? I really doubt it. The main case (to resist the government) will even be strengthened if such a thing happens.

When you see cryptobros reeing, it's a great opportunity to buy a little, so that you don't drool on the sides during the next run.

They can't block your crypto account/wallet like they did with bank accounts in Greece, Cyprus, Iceland etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_controls_in_Greece Even only this is enough, but there are ma

Bitcoin is worth something exactly because of people like Lagarde. It is our insurance against them.

Do you have a good study on the topic? In the fitness group I am a member, we do regular bloodwork and they have never seen such a thing in their 10 years of experience. On the contrary, most of the micronutrients/vitamins readings bec

Did you miss that I explicitly stated "for several months" and not "forever"? It's enough to get you kickstarted and then you can begin varying (and also you will learn a lot about yourself during that time)

I am in my second year of controlling my weight. Down ~30kg and I am in the healthy range now for more than 6 months. So far it seems to be sustainable. I am in a paid fitness (online) group and I have learned a lot, though it's still
