   So what does that feel like? Don't underestimate curiosity.

   Man, namesilo has a LOT of dodgy business going on in domains they register, and don't reply to any emails about it. They are suspect as all hell.

   Crazy amounts of authoritarianism happened in Russia, China, Germany and the US, pre internet. It went badly in all those places, but there have been a couple of generations and people need to relearn the same lessions. I don't think t

   I'm glad that your political system is working well, not full of corruption, and that you have bright leaders who have a deep understanding of matters of education.

   I am seriously looking at this as being cheaper than the local phone plans in my country. Some places have seriously screwy cell pricing, signing up to this would be cheaper for data.

   Exactly. Which is WHY it is emotional labour.... From Wikipedia.... "Emotional labour is the process of managing feelings and expressions to fulfill the emotional requirements of a job. More specifically, workers are expected to regula

   It is technically emotional labour though. It isn't physical labour, but it is still draining.

    They copied everything except the distribution network. You can buy Apple products in the EU, the pixel slate? Not so much. Here in NZ, if it isn't a Chromecast, it isn't on their store.

    This is also a case of where people are rampantly violating what rules there are without a care, and, since they don't actually have problems - they don't see the laws as useful. When you regulate something and cover far far more

    And yet, you eat food prepared by others, take buses, play sports, swim, step foot on a boat, cross streets. (I am only guessing you do these things, most people do) ALL of these are where people die if mistakes happen. It just comes down t

    ok, lets talk stats. Lets NOT assume he is 99.99% safe. Lets look at the 825,000 drones sold in one year, and estimate it from the number of problems that they had with those. We don't just pick a number when we have a perfectly good s

    825,000 drones were sold in the U.S. in 2016 The move fast happened a while ago. Where is the killing people by the 100s?

    This is a bad example. 825,000 drones were sold in the U.S. in 2016 alone. If you had 825,000 developers, who on many days did commits and didn't have any real issues, you may think differently. I again, am pro regulation, but this is

    Stats is on his side. He CAN assume it is safe, since given how many are in the air, and how few problems we have, in his scenario we can assume it is safe unless shown otherwise. I am for the regulation, but, I am also against people not u

    We didn't always have this system. Things still worked. Removing copyright may let a better system be out in place

    I thought it was going to be about Air NZ Flight 901. But it was about a boat. Things called Erebus seem to be a problem :)

    Sure it is, wipe them from one area, and leave the other one alone. Compare the changed area to the control area.

    The others maybe, but new Zealand is no one's new world order :). Aus + UK + US are the real drivers.

    if that worries you, I wouldn't look under the covers of almost any database you run, nor network stack you have. Graphics card drivers are WAY out. File systems too. Julia offers as much safety as most languages. You would be hard pre

    Ok, that is amazing. How long before llvm has dna support? Once that happens you will be able to make a self hosting dna builder, and have a bunch of high level languages along for the ride :)

    Not yet, soon. It's multi threading model is mostly multi process. Mostly because people write code to run on clusters on machines, not just single ones. co-routines, channels, etc will be nice, and I expect not too far away.

    Library devs also need to actively think about memory layout if they are after crazy amounts of speed.

    But with driving human lives are at stake now. It just has to be better than the average driver.
