He didn't say "my country good", only "other country bad".

Yes?

You're forgetting the unwritten "but drugs" exception.

This has the common problem of marking extra usages of letters as "wrong position" rather than "wrong". It also said "too bad" when I got it on the last guess.

Used to be. Moore's law isn't quite dead yet, nor are algorithmic computer vision improvements.

The harm to a live conversation of talking over someone is clear. There is no harm here, only a digression that can be ignored or not as participants wish. The OP had as much time and space to make their case. Again, threaded forums are n

"Talking over" is something that just doesn't apply to one reply on an asynchronous threaded forum.

That likely would have spared them comparison to Apartheid, yes, but would instead have been an ethnic cleansing. The unfortunate matter is that the Arab states were not criticized harshly enough. And that is almost certainly due to a comb

by wnoise 5y ago
Well, largely because the Arab countries are not. They do bad things, yes. They did a one-time expulsion of Jews, which is now no longer on going. They have highly discriminatory immigration policies. They have abusive "guest worke

Which is the exact opposite of what I expect and want -- the bare filename should render, and the .md extension should get the markdown source.

"Those guys are bad too" is not a rebuttal. Yes, they are. So?

Ah, yes. That is a different point than the one I thought you were making. Both the symmetric and diagonal cases are lucky ones where the constrained derivative is the same shape and size as the original (as the constrained manifolds are f

Well, T cells help a bit because they generally lessen the time for which you are contagious.

Not as many and not as coordinated.

Why would this matter?

So, why the hell does WHATWG want to treat \ as /?

7500 might barely be considered a novelette. But if you're going to categorize non-fiction in fiction terms, the most comfortable length category is short story, which usually goes up to 10k.

Processes are the natural unit for user composability and control. It's more or less necessary for any multiple language scenario. That really is worth a lot. And it makes lowering the costs for that case quite worthwhile.

If you're going to attempt a reductio ad absurdam, the end position actually needs to be absurd. For drugs, I would assume legalization is the median position in this forum. Guns are more complicated, but there are definitely a lot o

Reliable? Maybe. Enduring, definitely not. Chat logs, e-mails, bug-tracker tickets endure. Speech is completely ephemeral.

The only real solution is to straighten out the axis and eliminate the seasonal variation in daily hours sunlight.

I would love to see a system that isn't subject to quantum effects.

by wnoise 5y ago
It's not even a plausible speculation; all of the best models we have, quantum mechanics, special relativity, quantum field theory, general relativity, and string theory have a fully continuous space-time. The one notable exception is
