If you share a flat with other people this exact same thing happens. In the german form, at least, you can specify that somebody is already paying for that flat (and you put their details) and they will stop asking.

This is probably a feature. The non-jquery version will need a check for the elements existance to not blow up, which could the same be added to the jquery version for error reporting. Plus, in this case, you will find out by seeing the dar

Agree. Even before getting into things like: $(".classname").closest(".container").addClass("active”); I do not get the hate over jquery, specially since frameworks like angular used (use?) to include a light ver

Not to be unpolite or as a critique to the specific paper, but I am more worried about superstupidity not being able to be contained. I like to be exposed to these very theoretical questions. I am aware that progress depends often on explor

To add a couple more examples; in polish "Makaron" is all pasta (same as above), while in German "Nudeln" (noodles) is also synonymous with all pasta (even maccaroni!).

I find it an insightful comparison. Probably the closest to UBI today. How do we know receiving UBI will not be stigmatized? It can also vary from place to place (it is cultural). At least in one country I know unemployment is 60% of your p

I could not agree more. And I may add IMO the opposite of what the author is saying is true. By checking only for best, in my experience, one lands in optimized seo pages that are not the best. It is like discovering music by searching for

It is possible, and easy, to have two virtual environments with a different python version in the same project. I am doing this right now with a long-lived project, where a deploy script uses python 2 and everything else python 3.

I like to use the audience score as well. I found it has some pitfalls occasionally, although they can be fun. Certain movies attract a very narrow and enthusiastic, that will upvote the movie disproportionately (people not interested in th

There a re a few heuristics for German that are very useful. I had this problem myself and researched it deeply in this article (full disclosure: own website) https://mejuto.co/statistical-grammar-guessing-a-german-noun...

This week I was listening to the radio and the host said (live) that he could not see the script (he made a bigger than usual pause) because of a flash update. I had to laugh. Other members of the show referred to "remind me later"

Totally agree with the example you give, with quotes. My comment was directed more towards news where they would report, following your example, <Group a says "man walked on the moon", group b says "nobody was ever in the

I am conflicted about this one. It is possible to think of situations where reporting two opposing opinions as equally valid is not neutral but instead legitimizes an extremist opinion. Overall it is easier for the journalism medium, since

According to this definition a pure programming language could not have any side effect (Not very useful). Maybe as pure as possible is the only interpretation that makes sense, then.

Currently I do not own one but IMHO the coffee from nespresso is pretty good. I guess it depends on how much one can care about coffee – probably a lot!– but I am not so sure about the overlap. Apparently it is good enough for michelin star

I have been playing with GPT-2 (while I wait for GPT-3 access) to generate quotes, and I was surprised how many keep the symmetry, wordplay and plot twist effect at the end. I would not be surprised to see that the riddles generated with it

In the film 24 hour party people it seems like the band (joy division) is aware of the meaning of the name and uses it for shock value/polemic/postmodernism attitude. IIRC some people shout at them while going on/off-stage

Funny how similar this one it is to mine: I use tags surrounded by colons so I can attach a few of them and grep them easily (distinguishing them from normal text contents) Ex. :label1:label2:labeln:

Incorporating an LLC alone (the equivalent of a c-corp is rarely used by startups over here) requires 3,000 EUR in the bank plus about the same amount in legal fees. At least when I did start a Sociedad Limitada (LLC) around 8 years ago t
