Ada is not cool. More seriously, GNAT crashed all the time in random ways when I tried it, and when I tried adacore on stm32, the timing functions were based on systick, that’s a non-starter for me, and I didn’t want to start learning a new

I have no issues sending money from the continent to the UK or the US if that's your intellectual model. But I don't think you're on the correct track. edit: this sentence is weird, on the US, the money is blocked on the Amer

It really is, because the regulation is strong, faster and cheaper transfers, common account numbering system, nobody bats an eye if your money crosses the border (it was a nightmare in the US, BoA would reject my client's wires all th

"isn't US misbehavior what got Assange in prison in the first place?"

I think they are making a reference to the video of American soldiers mowing everybody in a street in Irak without the army ever disciplining anyone or making a public apology and a monument.

Isn't Apple putting crazy rules on its store to freeze innovation tho?

I think you missed the word "elective", I guess the whole point was to remove emergency surgery from the study.

Plus I don’t think spreading a crazy sect in places that had mostly gotten rid of religion was really to be put on the credit of the person.

they behavior is not deviating form the standards set by the US.

The CIA did the same with an entire soviet spacecraft.

I would think the object touched a rotor blade and got converted into shrapnel.

how exactly do you ask Apple on what people were working on before leaving?

Rich people debating poor people's issues, in DC, as is proper. What temperature should the champagne be served at?

And French doctors have access to a periodical about drug that is anal on not taking money from big pharma ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prescrire ).

what are the repercussions for an untruthful cop?

what's weird, is that Roubaix is actually an extremely poor town that would probably greatly benefit from the money the lawyers get from those lawsuits (and it's probably small enough that it would make a difference).

And also, even if the sort was important in my app and there was a superior compelling reason to rewrite it internally (one common case is computing 2 things at once), I would probably google what people in the domain do and think first, tr

I just moved back to France after living 2 years in Phoenix. You can't rely on public transportation, I don't want to wait for a freaking bus to go get milk. I want density enough that there will be a shop I can walk to. public tr

Americans on average do not want denser housing. It's not part of their culture, they don't see the point, they want a backyard, and they don't mind having to drive all the time. I'm pretty sure that even the people bene

by nraynaud 7y ago
it's when they recompute the life expectancy at birth from the life expectancy at the current time that the skew arises.

by nraynaud 7y ago
One problem of life expectancy is that old people retiring skew it, basically moving from Kansas to Florida at 70 increases the life expectancy of Florida, because the people who died at 20 in Kansas can't move to Florida too. That&#x2

Driving is a priviledge, it's the driver's responsibility not to kill anyone with their weapon, the same way a runner should be responsible not to hit and kill a toddler with their body. The person with the killing power is respon
