In the EU it is required to write on the packaging that „pink slime“ is included but more importantly it‘s not allowed to use these pieces of bone and meat (but only that of cattle) in any produce due to BSE. Another problem is that ammonia

I wonder why no one includes other metrics like being happy with life and having a dignified job. Metrics that are important and overlooked. Well, I have a job, but I have to slaughter animals for it, is something I would consider here too.

Yeah, better establish a great system of universal healthcare and built social housing mixed with normal housing everywhere around the city. And get the poor a small basic income to get them off the streets until they find a new dignified j

Every driver that complains when going too fast and damaging his car on such a speed reducer should loose his license for a couple of weeks to get a clear head again. How bad people are driving is kind of a mirror of the current society. I‘

Kinda ironic that the tech industry is forced to bring people together at this place to do... something. Remote work, distributed working, all these ideas are what could lead a worldwide trend to distribute work, people, resources more effi

And what is better? Healthcare costs a fortune as seen in the US and the system is failing, when you are a humanitarian and think equality to all humans is important. Same with housing. Rich fools conquering large towns and driving everyone

Wow, long time not seen Tcl/Tk. I came in touch with it and I can't find anything nice to say about Tcl. So a round of applause to you for building an editor with it.

Mayor issues that were thought to use over the years are that fuel is not easy and ecologically good to mine. And it will run dry in two or three generations and where should we put the radiating waste. Usually users from the states in thes

The problem is that the definite way to go back on the iPhone is to swipe over the screen from left to right. That gets you back to where you come from every time. The other problem is that no application trains the user doing this with for

I agree. Digging deep into an open source library is a major pain in the ass, but helps to get better and being it to clean up the code and add a couple comments. Increases the quality of your own products too.

Thank you, I wanted to point this out too. Awkward how other countries think about work environments.

In Germany there are laws dictating the minimum size an office work space must have. Is there something similar at your place?

The issue is that for the result there are too many variables and unknowns that complicate the most important thing. Writing the app and not taming the build process. Take Ember for example. It lacks the freedom to configure as you please b

Employers, as well as state institutions need to look more at the health of their employees. Even in Germany we have the problem that people at universities work way too much. People need to be told to stop and take a step back. Hard border

I'm having a look at Tcl at work due to legacy code and it's no language that I find easily accessible. Especially when having not that much time and having a large codebase. The interpretation and the braces in braces parts are a

I wrote an iOS app around the iOS9 release and did it purely in Swift. It's a great language and easy to grasp. I liked the if let pattern for example. The hard part is using the frameworks and not getting annoyed of XCode slow downs,

Some words to editors from my side. On work, we deploy our site to customers on Win Servers. We use Notepad++ on them. It's the shittiest editor, I've ever used. On my own machine I'm able to use Sublime. From time to time Br

I don't know why it is so hard to understand, that some people want to have the best experience. The iPad does not everything, but at what it does, it tries to be the best. The Surface is trying to be best at everything, but that creates so
