Attractiveness is constant, but how it is perceived might have shifted. I vaguely remember that OkCupid did some "study" that men rate most woman around average attractiveness and the distribution is symmetric, but women rate most

Acting like the parent poster suggested shooting random homeless people as a solution for homelessness is disgusting. Defending yourself from a person who hits you in the head with a hard object is reasonable (at least in the rest of the wo

It's amusing that they went through all the pain of making a global SIM to make it available only for the US residents.

store.google.com: "We aren’t in your country yet" This is bizzare. We have Apple/Samsung/Huawei/xiaomi stores on every corner somehow. At least they offer google search here.

That's a really big assumption that they are not doing anything covertly because they are doing it in the open. Especially if you consider initiatives like Jewish Internet Defense Force [1]. In light of the history of Israel, if find i

> Amazon.de does have Polish-language interface, though, and free shipping to Poland (and 10 other European countries) for orders over €39. Well, that's something. Some content seems to be machine-translated and prices are in €, but

Meanwhile in my country in Europe I have never heard about anyone buying anything from Amazon. Not the IT people, not the common folk, not teenagers, literally no one. Maybe someone bought a Kindle some time back, but I remember that people

Not relevant to you questions, but I'm shocked about the discounts. My only ride without paying the full price was the first ride. For the record it has been like this in Poland since 2016. It is cheaper here, but at the same ratio vs.

I do this very often, sending an email yields 5%-15% discount on booking.com prices. But that works for independent hotels. What I write here about are chain hotels, which have terrible online experience and contacted through email gave m

I'll take all the dark patterns they have if it means I can avoid hotel chains' own booking systems. At least I already know the dark patterns of booking.com. Tried to book a one of Starwood Preferred Guest hotel. Had to create an

I might partially or totally disagree with the original manifest, but this reply is repulsive. I would never want to have a "senior" like this. So much emphasis on how senior he is, how junior you have to write something so wrong.

Which is kind of ridiculous, because now he has to reload while the second person in the car can grab the gun. I mean, if the cop was actually thinking that the people in the car were trying to kill them.

Seconding this. I have never bought anything from Amazon. People here don't even consider it when making a choice. They just buy from allegro (our local eBay) and from thousands of on-line stores. I don't know if Amazon has some c

Thanks. And I thought that I work in an unprofessional company on a useless project. I feel a lot better now. This reads like a chatlog from minecraft server for teenagers.

>Hilary Clinton isn't even close to being the most corrupt. She probably wouldn't even be in the top ten. Technically you are right, but this sounds pretty depressing. At least she didn't make it to the top 10!

I wondered about this for some time. Simple regex (as in formal language theory) are matched in O(n) time by finite automaton. Extended regex like PCRE are more powerful, but most of the time are implemented by backtracking engines, where r

Because the law says you can't do that. Well, you might not agree with that certain rule, but note that many do not agree that any form of taxation is fair. Maybe they just want to maximize their chances of a successful rest of life?

I find it hilarious that "beating people up" somehow got missing from the quote in you post. Yes, I am frightened by people attacking political rallies, especially when waving other country's flags. What is so strange to it?

You can decide on any evil/stupid policy as long as you secure yourself with a layer of people hired to carry out your plan. This way no one can do anything about it, because: * People actually doing wrong things are 'just doing t

It would make sense to provide some. Example problem could be that both JavaScript strings and std::string can have '\0' bytes in them. Converting them like in the post would lead to string truncation if a null byte was present so
