Fine is not the same as feeling or behaving native (which at least it didn't when I tried it).

Like with OP you are making a lot of assumptions about consensus. Things that don't have one: intellectual property is not an oxymoron, we need to incent people to create content, right to monetize has to include strict technical limit

Is there an app on Mac that does not support clover-T for new tabs?

To be fair I don't think they are trying to make Pixel world-wide popular. If they did, they would sell it to more places (can't buy it here in Slovenia).

Yes, AngularJS (1.x), not Angular (2 onwards).

Yes and I am sure all these airlines know this too and yet they are grounding them even though it costs them real money. It seems these airlines are less comfortable with the kind of cracks they noticed or the speed of their growth, but may

How is not selling something to anyone censoring them?

I'm sympathetic to what you say, but optimizing for following pages might be a tad optimistic if I leave after first failed load attempt.

And I have New Yorker's Digital Archive which doesn't except in my VM with an old Windows XP. Nobody is perfect and you can't rely on anyone to solve this problem for you.

And yet somehow Slovenian police manages to do just that (shoot to maim, usually leg), on very rare occasions when it has to use a gun and warning shot didn't suffice.

I'm not the author of the article, but I sometimes use the same approach because in my experience saying 5 people out of 100 does not have the same effect as 1 in 20 even though mathematically they are same. It provides a mental check

There are interesting bits in this article, but on the whole it is not well written and clearly slanted. For example, section about Guardian's reporting on Corbyn has 8 long paragraphs about other media reports like it has any bearing

Failed in what sense and judged by whom? Speaking from central-European perspective I find that translations to other languages are generally valued at home, but I have not noticed any supremacy of English and English speaking countries.

The limit doesn't have to be at the point where motor stops being louder. They only have to cover the range where all car induced noise is too quiet and only to extent necessary to mitigate this for EVs.

I hate noise pollution too but some people are blind.

I agree as I've seen this happen too many times. In future I plan to apply only for positions in companies where remote work is not optional (no offices).

Well, that wasn't my argument but since you've asked, in my case it is/was this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18894122

If you don't even realize that you are drinking polluted water, is it actually to the detriment of consumers? I know this is not the same thing, but my example is meant to highlight the logical fallacy. As to your second question, I en

Look mate, as a fellow Slav from Slovenia I can assure you all our common ancestors stumbled here way too late to have anything to do with Etruscans. And then there are also excellent arguments made in other comments.

I think most people want to know why they are being fired and they deserve that information communicated delicately. Some might want to know who fired them when it is not obvious, but few would actually benefit from knowing this.

I keep seeing this emphasis on "unsuccessful" and while I understand why that should lead to less severe _potential_ sentence, I fail to understand why it should be important to establish if it was a crime. Same goes for motive.

That "only" in first sentence invalidates it. There's enough historical data to disprove it.

It is alive, but certainly not well. There are fewer making a living doing it and among those who are, most earn far less than they used to. Source: my wife is a photographer and consequently I follow photographers more than I'd otherw

I doubt it. I think it mainly has to do with number of glass elements used which is driven by rising requirements because new sensors. Film was more forgiving. I, too, don't know much about photography beyond lugging my wife's len

I am tired of this shtick where when companies fail, it is a beauty of free market at work, but when government projects do, it is because government is inefficient and same people who keep expounding how you have to put money into all sort

They will, don't worry :P It just takes longer for some sets than others. It's not like Disney, where you'd get a year and then into a vault for 7.
