>One could be wondering why there was a big pushback against nuclear energy in the first place. Fukushima incident had a big impact on German public opinion. Even at the time it was a obvious over reaction from the Germans.

Your link greatly understates later human (predominantly British people) impact from 1500 onwards: https://www.forestryservices.ie/history-of-forestry-in-irela... Basically my opinion is that we should be allowed to mess up

Great news -- Ireland is another country in bad need of reforesting. The British took all our trees to build their navy and Irish farmers finished off what little remained. We have very few old growth forests as a result.

I run macOS on an iMac on an external SSD and then have another SSD connected to the machine that is a Time Machine clone of the first drive. The internal drive on the iMac acts as an emergency boot device.

And the guy in Baja hoodie winking every time he says Mushroom? The other guy going on about "Uncle Ben tek" for growing mushrooms? You gotta read between the lines -- obviously this product will not be explicitly marketed for dru

I don't think these smart boxes are for mushroom growers (agriculture) but for magic mushroom growers (recreational drug use). Where a "Click&Grow" equivalent is needed. With a hydrometer and water sprayer instead of a ti

Not to be a pedant but the Ryanair CEO is Eddie Wilson -- Michael O'Leary now heads up the umbrella group behind Ryanair. It's astonishing to me that the Press Release outlines suggests otherwise.

I remember laughing at Matt Damon til I learned how much he made from that ad deal. It was like 80 Million dollars or something insane.

No -- are you presuming 'allocating resources' can only mean hiring more devs? It doesn't.

by s_dev 4y ago
Investing could mean hiring more experienced candidates rather than more candidates. Investing could mean having a fraction of the devs and far more resources for each one of them. Whatever the problem this is absolutely a GitHub management

Maybe you shouldn't be asking 'Why' repeatedly (that sounds threatening but isn't meant to be). Regulation is sufficient explanation for why something has a minimum price. By all means delve deeper but by going deeper yo

>But why does a championship chess set need to be produced expensively? In a word: Regulation. You have to use one of the specified sets from a specified manufacturer not just any. Fewer manufactures means less competition.

Yes but management are responsible for allocating resources. Pointing to another team that has no bearing on the issue at hand doesn't nothing to absolve management from this.

I find that hard to believe -- Goldbears are in every second shop in Ireland. Where are we getting them from if not the UK? Jungle Mix is superior anyhow.

Aye but these lads are building a compiler. Probably shouldn't hide things like 'memory management' at the introduction stage as use of memory is inherent to all computing and programming.
