"You should be glad" is so very much patronising, I cant write here what I think of that down-looking behaviour.

You could say the same thing about LLVM/Clang. Apple and Google only cooperated on that because they really really dont want a restrictive licence like the GPL. But then again, after a while, Clang is a nice alternative... Which makes

Haha, nice suggestive questioning, but I am not falling for it. Your base assumtion is wrong, websites are not nice and dandy, its more like throwing dice to see if you're happy or not. In fact, the more "progressive" a web

Great! So if I am hit (blind pedestrian) by an AV at dusk, I can at least say it wouldn't have happened statistically if I weren't out and about so late? Sorry, but these "Is safer then human drivers" statistics dont d

I have a different take. As a person reliant on accessibility, PWAs almost always deliver a worse experience for me. So after a while, I learnt to prefer native apps, simply because PWAs typically deliver a worse UX for me.

So, if you drink and drive and kill a child, is it your responsibility, or is it the fault of alcohol being legal or vehicles not being mandates safe enough? This modern way of dealing with moral hazards is making me sad and afraid of othe

Sorry, but Brexit so soooo long ago, I really dont care anymore about the british whining. They kept the EU hostage for far too long during negotiations, I am glad its over, and I really really dont care anymore. Move on, its over.

This is reason enough for me to support leaving the EU. I always suspected it to become something else. And since VDL it has become rather clear that staying will make things worse.

If its not a typo, Feynman definitely made these names up. Halzenfugel looks like mock-german. I would have bought it if it were written Halzenvogel... But not with -fugel. Dutch, maybe? :-)

I use programming exactly for that, to get rid of ambiguity in notes and make them execut/verifyable. Actually, that was my biggest issue with math: I dont trust myself to make no errors and neither can I trust myself to see them. A

I give you that if the voter opinion was not influenced by media reports. However, since that is pretty much impossible, no... There is actually no way the "overwhelming majority" will ever want that, without being influenced..

"Progress", sure. What you actually mean is "we got a lot of free money to build things with". Its easy to like the EU if you are in one of those countries that gets way more out then you have to put in.

Wait, disturbance is the prblem? I always thought disturbance is a means of getting attention. But maybe you should talk to FFF activists, I hear they are extremely good with disturbing the common man.
