Time ago there was a running joke about YouTube comments sillyness. That section has improved a lot. Live chats, on the other hand... During a recent volcano eruption someone was convinced that the rain would help stop the lava. I can'

Walking less is not the cause of the obesity, more like the other way around: if you don't need to walk, you can afford to overeat until you're obese. Also the pleasure of walking and exercising must be replaced with something e

I have been close to people in that kind of situation and I am happy to answer. We tend to see those questions from the nightmarish movie plot perspective in which someone is wrongfully institutionalized. Cuckcoo's Nest and all that. A

A judge, hearing witnesses and mental health professionals under oath, decides who is unable to behave peacefully. It's usually a last-resort measure, so when it comes to this, it's very clear cut. Locking up can mean a number of

I've used languages with and without garbage collection. Usually, manual is more difficult to write, automatic is more difficult to troubleshoot. I would love to use a language that allows me to do both. Writing exploratory code is mor

When I'm writing this, there's not a single comment that engages with the actual proposals presented in the article. Most commenters are addressing points that the author didn't make or just insulting him. TL;DR: 1) simplify

I don't like playing prophet, so this is a very personal hunch: I believe we're at a social dead end. Whichever new trends we'll see in the next twenty years will come after some kind of mindset switch flipping. If that sound

A long time ago I saw some UV photos of flowers, compared to visible and IR. There were some distinct features. That suggests some insects could see them, but of course it's just speculation.

No, your avg tech worker is not going to be making 15k/yr. Maybe around 40k/yr and that would be an "average" salary for a non-senior position. Both of you are wrong for different reasons. The truth is more nuanced. Fi

Madrid: They don't have a river, a beach or ancient ruins. We do have a river, but if it doesn't seem much to you, take the train south and in half an hour you reach Aranjuez: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A

A youtuber being a youtuber, but that's his opinion. He not only tells, but he also shows and I can still form my own opinion. To be more specific: the 3D gestures interface seems great to me. I'm not interested in the AI assistan

I saw that trick in a couple of movies, but don't rememberch which ones. In one of them they made a whole car of gold, maybe it was Goldfinger ? In the other one, they fled the country in a boat and replaced some parts of the boat wit

The distinction seems useful, but consider that each of both terms have been defined in many different ways by many schools of thought along the milennia. For Aristotle, Ethics was the way your parents raised you and the moral compass tha

So different ways of calling the same thing and different UIs. But it's just given names vs. family names and a set of rules. I like Bulgarian ones most.

In José Manuel, Manuel would be the middle name, just like in English. It's not a "two-words-long first name". Sometimes first and middle names are coupled like a whole, like it's usual for José Manuel. Also for José-som
