The most important reasons IMHO are (1) domestic election and (2) wanting to get a hold of some F-16s for their air force.

Knowing the opponent he indeed caught on but with 30 minutes (and most of that spent with Ylva) there's only so much you can do.

I doubt that it is strictly _needed_. Most C++ programmers will probably live life gloriously without having ever read it. But if you really want to know every nook and cranny of C++ initialisation (which I sincerely hope I will never want)

This made me immediately think of "The bug count also rises" http://www.snider.com/jeff/hemingway.html and of course Bryan Cantrills reading of it: https://youtu.be/4PaWFYm0kEw?t=1243

This varies in the EU IIRC for example here in Sweden if you plan to fire more than 5 people you need to alert the public employment agency and employees 2 months in advance and the union which the company has collective bargaining agreemen

In a similar vein, I would like to know what the "and I take full responsibility for this" line that CEOs always say in these emails actually looks like besides just saying it in the email.

It should be noted that TeX wa s of course designed to actually be interactive and stop letting you fix errors. I went through the texbook by Knuth last year and my eyes were opened (also note that I am an incurable (La)TeX fan so my opinio

Which becomes even more interesting when you find out that allemansrätten is never defined in law.

While a 25 PE is not unheard of at all, they have been up on much higher levels (190+ IIRC) before this price fall.

They have a company in the EU which makes it quite easy to enforce given that EU companies must follow EU law.

Curious, how large are teams in Replot usually? To me (programmer in Sweden) the largest single team I've been on was 14 people and that was _very_ large (indeed the largest in the tech department). We actually broke ourselves up into

Funilly enough if you looked at the rolls that were presented in the press conference of which battles the ship was a part of it is spelled "Eplet" there. We didn't have a consistent way of spelling things in Sweden until the

More than a few years, this particular legislation yes but it really started in 2009 where they wanted to mandate micro-usb.

No it was never mandatory only voluntary. There was a threat to make it mandatory but most mobile phone suppliers signed a letter of intent on implementing a common standard (apple included).

I'll put in a recommendation for the Youtube Kids app where this doesn't happen.

I would have thought national geographic maps are common in U.S classrooms? And I don't think they've ever used the Mercator.

It is not new stories no but it is being edited to form a more complete story one could say. They usually provide some really good commentary by Tolkien scholars in these publications as well so usually well worth the money (note: completel

A number of pharmacies in Sweden also sent a bunch of data (IIRC for example contents of shopping carts) to facebook via the pixel. All of them are now under investigation by our data protection agency.

Mutt is indeed good but as a gnus user I'd have to disagree that it is the _only_ reasonable option ;)

When they started this in 2009 they did want to make micro usb the thing everybody was forced to use. It's only by luck that it took enough time to not get stuck on that...

I'm a programmer at the Swedish Internet foundation which runs (or in industry terms: is the registry for) the .se and .nu (nuie) ccTLDs. Basically we are a big old database. When someone registers a new domain, via a registrar, they s
