Maybe, but anecdotically people I know who bought new Kia's also got rid of them, after trying different models that all had interesting problems.

And .. what is this comment if not a rhetorical trick to obscure the truth, that the catholic church is in fact deeply entrenched in gender discrimination?

To me that never made sense. If the world is really ending, there is no point in planting a tree. It only made sense as in, you never know if the world is really ending. So assume it is not and do the right thing, even if things seem dark.

I recommend moving towards a place, where you have access to peaceful, green places tomgo for a walk. In a busy city, I guess most people won't find their peace of mind. (I am just moving away from the city, partly for this reason)

Yes, I am aware of that. And I don't know much about the current pope, but he seems progressive and can only go step by step, like Franziskus. What I do know is, that a main motivation to introduce the celibate, was that priests don&#x

Oh my, I assume you are male? Just declaring the discrimination to be "not that important" is quite typical then (as it does not affect you) and well, my catholic aunt would disagree, but she is not important. May I ask, what the

And that makes it hard. I am open for banning all comercial advertisement - but general society is largely fine with it. So is someone designing new targeting algorithm for ads breaking his potential oath of doing good for society? What gre

It seems to work somewhat with medical doctors and the Hippocratic Oath. But I would argue it is way easier there. Building software has way more grey areas.

"it's all just capitalism in its most raw, inevitable, end game form." Can you explain, what would be early capitalism and what is the difference to "end game capitalism" to you?

"Doing the work is what's most important, and the rest can be figured out later." I would say for most people his means they won't start the work if they don't know whether there is a way. Also most people like to g

We only had to, because some buerocrats certified IE6 for some processes and did not bother to update with the real world that moved beyond that piece of garbage. So ... thanks for bringing back bad memories.

Having knowledge in theory, somewhere and having knowledge avaiable where people can access it, is not the same thing. In other words, maybe unneccesary pedantry?

I think I know that different people have different metrics what bad code is. My main metric is, if it is readable. So yes, I also don't consider my old code with var bad. But other people do.

That attitude has been around for a long time, well since the time of colonisation. With the current Zeitgeist people just feel more confident, expressing it now again. But imagine you are a colonizer (or your family got rich because if it)

So? Are you implying I should have switched to react 13 years ago, when it was just another framework who come and go? And then my experience would have been stable? (I kind of doubt it, when my unstable web experience was caused by changes

Or .. you are working in an unstable environment. If the system you take as a base changes frequently(like the web), your code becomes bad, outdated code, no matter how shiny it was before. But if it was good, migration and maintaining it i

Let me put it like this, I believe there are holy sacred programmers out there, who always are in total control of their code, I just have not met them yet. And no, not all my code is written at 5 am when I am close of passing out. But I sa

Those security guards have been questioned extensivly by court, though. And they did not seem of the loyal kind, take secrets to the grave, rather the contrary.

I am sometimes with hippi people and there is a thing called cuddle puddle. Cold around the fire, people get close to each other. But can also happen inside, on some couch, bed. The thing is, this is not sexual at all. Just people enjoying

It is not normal adult behavior and he likely should have had therapy. But it is not necessarily pedophilia. Because that means wanting to have sex with children. The explanation I heard is he wanted to be close to children to compensate fo

That is surprising. Do you know the reasons? Is it a special use case or was asm really faster? I find that hard to believe.

Yes, but this "emergency" UI of the OS could be improved I think. (Also that functionality could have been build easily with normal DOM and JS, cancel and override all events, etc)
