There is no point arguing the semantics of English in a legal discussion. >one is actively refraining from taking an action.

Doesn't the rails csrf token prevent that?

That's ridiculous. When people use men in this context, they refer to humanity as a whole. Don't confuse your lack of English understanding as being PC.

Your argument can be further extended as "what's the point of living when eventually everything will cease to exist anyway". But ultimately, it's these small wins along the way that help push humanity forward. I'm not going to open the "wha

It doesn't take much to write the next "fake spyware scanner 2012", just tedious.

The specific way Scala is bound to the JVM (as a 8mb class library that needs to be loaded every time) is the reason it is slow to compile and by implication, slow-er startup. I suppose we do need to take account of language features. C++ i

Except Scala has no 'break' (that isn't a hack using exceptions), this makes imitating imperative style difficult and some syntaxical sugar should no doubt ensure that Scala will always be slower than Java.

Sorry, but your Ruby code will never the same speed as C code, even if it is the same implementation. We'd all like to believe all programming languages are equal, but that's not the case.

Appreciate it.

It's unfortunate that Scala is fatally flawed because it was bound to the JVM. Having java interop is both a blessing and a curse. The sheer scale of the language implemented as a java library pretty crippled compile time.

This exactly. Too many people don't say what they think because they are afraid of losing internet points.

How can Scala be state of the art when it is so bad. They probably meant to say newest, in which case I nominate Dart to take Scala's place.

Apple products just suck on windows. Look at the massive piece of shit that is Quicktime and iTunes. I don't think that anyone that has used either wants to use another Apple product on windows.

The article didn't present any evidence of genocide. Only organ harvesting was substantiated.

And you have evidence that a Han Chinese man would not receive the same sentence for the same crime?

I'm not saying what China is currently doing in XingJiang is right, but to deny that overthrowing Dalai Lama resulted in a better standard of life for Tibet's inhabitants is lunacy.

Much better than being executed in America and not have your organs cut out when it doesn't matter anyway. Also did you miss the part about the consent to donate organs? Good thing America's lethal injection poison the whole body and render

Because slavery under Dalai Lama's system was much better right? You seem to think that it was a semi-utopia under Dalai Lama's rule, but it was still a backward, primitive system enforced and governed by religion.

This article isn't about harvesting organs from people that were going to die/dead/dying. This article accusing China of genocide against the Uighurs, which is complete bullshit.

The whole thing is a strawman. The blogger defined design as a "nice looking user interface" and then proceeded to knock it over.
