Or the astroturfing was automated, and didn't expect to catch literally barack obama. However yes, I agree a comment system is not equivalent to a democratic forum.

A geosynchronous orbit is ~36000km 36000 km / speed of light = .12 seconds So thats a ping of 240, minimum. That's assuming everything else in the system happened instantaneously. If you can however manage to solve the whole aimin

This is a literal ad hominem fallacy. Whether someone is honest or good doesn't have any bearing on any individual statement's veracity. A statement is true or false regardless of who says it. Additionally the article was written

If it were my business I'd absolutely say that. Doesn't mean you shouldn't USE 3rd party providers but you should be very careful. That's obviously not saying anything about legal responsibilities, of which I know nothin

Why would an ISP charge for netflix to deliver their content, when they can just throttle netflix and offer their own content. Go big or go home.

That's exactly right. This is why we need to collaborate across party lines.

In Lain it was a motif which represented the interconnectedness of modern society. Notice how they called the internet "The Wired". Idk enough about evangelion to comment.

I do support the AGPL as well, I just don't see it being a large concern that this operating system will become a web service. I don't see issue with other open source licenses, they all push toward the correct direction. I just a

There is no software license where that isn't true. I don't even know how such a license could be enforced anyway so it's a bit silly. Neat fact though.

Coal ash spills have caused big problems in my state, and the nuclear plant has caused none that I'm aware of. I'd imagine part of that is because people are more reckless with something that they view as safe, and vice versa but

It's not about the users it's about the developers, and no I'm not trying to troll. I'm sorry that what I said upsets you, but I don't think I was saying anything offensive. I admit "Stealing" is a loaded

Stealing momentum and userbase are not theft, but rather meant to convey a loss for the open source project despite being the ones who got the ball rolling. It was expressly permitted by the BSD license, so I'm not saying the Apple did

by vorotato 9y ago
Stealing momentum and stealing a product are entirely different things, I never said using open source products in your business without contributing is stealing. It can however rob a project of momentum. Yes a business can share their prog

For example, Jesus Christ would be a good example of a religious left. He advocated taxes, social programs for the poor, and the moral ill of wealth. His view was less populist because he felt that this change should happen by those with po

I love seeing that GPL license. Nobody can try to pull an Apple with the OS stealing valuable momentum and userbase. Whether you approve or not of such behavior, it's pretty unambiguous that it happens.

it would seem that in practice you can go even further, essentially writing exhaustive proofs. However F* already supports this and compiles to F#, so I would say if you want that level of correctness you should probably use a language whic

Basically when you take some value the user gives you and cast it to the dependent type, you can then cover the case where you got some result because the cast was successful or you got none. You can't have dependent types at compile t

If you don't think patient perception has anything to do with patient wellness then honestly I just hope you're not in medicine.

I have used this to personal benefit with "Vitamin Water". More recently I have picked up the even more affordable "Belly breathing" placebo. Now I have a placebo for free and all I have to do is breathe a particular way

You are highlighting a problem of too much centralization, not a problem of economic left or right. Centralization has this problem independent of whether it manifests in government or corporations.

Phamaceutical lobbies peddling opiates caused the heroin problem, alcohol lobbies pushed the war or marijuana, bank lobbyists pushed for deregulation that caused the housing crash, the subsequent recession, and wage stagnation as well. The

The economic left to right axis, and the authoritarian libertarian axis are orthogonal. I hope this helps.

Wages stagnating, costs of college increasing, and most teenagers are pretty upset about the political climate, but I'm sure it's social media. Sure the markets have improved, but that improvement hasn't really been reflected
