Oh, thank you. I see that full links do not require javascript and captchas with cars and traffic lights. I though that web-archives becomes plainly unusable, but it seems that it is only for short links. I wonder, is there any way to expan

It is the reason I do not like the term "human nature". Is it a human nature to kill other humans? Are moral considerations a part of a human nature? > To pick the most extreme example: most people don't need a law, or ev

Arguments about God had come to a stall, when all sides of a debate agreed that a hypothesis of God is not falsifiable. But it is still a question whether hypothesis of a simulation is falsifiable or not. How simulated Universe would be dif

At the same time Rust forbids some practices pushing a coder to choose another path. To name a specific example, try to roll out your own dynamically sized type type or a self-referential one. Such small things could contribute to performan

MSVC isn't used on Unix, is it? It is probably not a concern for them, because they do not support Windows anyway.

Cudos for you. I try something similar, I do not buy a product if I believe I saw its ads. It is a light version of your strategy (I'm not going to watch ads to know what is advertised and what isn't), but even it doesn't wor

No, they were far away and not my problem. It is silly from a rational standpoint, it is probably unjust from a Universal Justice standpoint, but I'm not talking about rationality or justice right now, I'm talking about emotions.

Yeah, I think you are right. But I didn't feel it before it hit me into the face. Me personally. Wars seemed too far away to feel real.

The strange thing I cannot play war games any more. Not after Russia invaded Ukraine. War now seems Really Evil and playing with it doesn't seem appropriate. I wonder does anyone else feel like that?
