I don't think it's going to be huge, but in France most people indeed fled Paris. Perhaps this event has convinced many people that telecommuting actually works, and we'll see a durable increase in people working from home, a

The Economist is completely biased, they just have a way to write that somehow tones it down. You could probably write a National-Socialist or Marxist-Leninist publication in the style of the Economist.

MISRA C is a subset of C / set of rules that is used in the auto industry, and supported by many tools.

You moved the goalpost from censorship to prison. We were talking about people being banned/censored/"de-platformed" from social media companies, in China and in the west. I'm aware that, otherwise, human rights abu

The hot path is the time between receiving market data from the network, and reacting to it by potentially sending an order. It's typically a thread constantly polling events from the network card. In that path the rest of the world do

In China, political dissenters are "de-platformed" (what a nice weasel word for "censored") by companies as instructed by the government; in America, they are censored by companies as instructed by angry mobs. It doesn&#

The hot path involves the network card, the CPU, RAM and nothing else. The trading algorithm will keep various data structures in memory to keep track of current position and position limits. Outside of the hot path/thread, you can do

I didn't say it was exactly the same, but it's not terribly different either. Many conservatives or "alt right" types get censored in the west, and some of them have to find hosting in Russia (or on Russian social networ

And which country would that be? Even if the US, peer pressure is often enough to get political dissenters banned from their social media accounts, jobs, etc. Many people use the cope out that it's different when it's done by the

Sure, my analogy is not perfect. But similar accidents have happened in the past (accidental leak of anthrax from a Russian lab, and voluntary leak of anthrax from a US lab). I don't know if it actually comes from that lab. I'm ju

It's not "widely implausible" that the virus in Wuhan could come from the P4 lab in Wuhan that studied those viruses. In fact, I would say it's "likely". If you see a nuclear leak somewhere, it's not a &qu

Your mom knows you don't lie and that's why she endorsed you. If I was a recruiter I would consider that a better form of endorsement than a random colleague who endorsed you because they expected some similar favor from you.

That's precisely what I hate about the LinkedIn feed. It's way too positive. The fake kind of positive. I don't understand why people do that. They're trying to fool other human beings by pretending that everything is aw

Your mom probably knows you better than any of your colleagues. Did you lie when you wrote you have the ability to do a DCF analysis?

And that's why we don't have any airport or car park in Europe.

It's a theoretical distinction much more than a practical one. So there is a difference, but I don't think it's 'vast'.

Politics is not about competence but defense of group interests. I'm never going to vote for someone competent (or smart) who goes against my interests. In fact, that would make things even worse for me the smarter they are. I think ma

It works because his opposition is still somehow convinced he's just "Trump", some rambling mad man who found his way into the white house, and not the POTUS, commander-in-chief, with access to intelligence.

IIRC, aside maybe from some technical limitations, the reason it was not "proper" encryption where you can't make any sense of the signal is that it gave some idea of what was playing. The sound was completely scrambled but f

What is pretty obviously going to happen is that police will simply move from areas that want to get rid of them to areas that support them. I don't think the Minneapolis PD cops will have to move to Australia to find a job. They'

Maybe you need to reconsider the way your communicate with your parents if you can't convince them, and your best alternative is to censor everything out there.

The only effect of downvotes is that I have to highlight text to be able to read it. I'm not sure what the point of the system is.

What exactly do you mean by 'radicalization'? Do young males have opinions that are fundamentally different from their fathers or grandfathers?
