I am sure people agree with you here and there will be plenty of people who find the casino industry distasteful but I would avoid projecting your own value set onto this. For every person whose life has been ruined by gambling, there are m

This is a small point, but to the author: in your first part of the article[0], binding the function argument to f in map, and then binding the head of the collection in filter was a bit confusing when scanning through...

Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree - perhaps it's simply a matter of different interests as I get pretty excited going to butcheries and equally found Smithfields and Billingsgate (in London) pretty exciting. So maybe I&#x

I'm a noob to concurrency, but my current understanding is that a "thread" is "virtual". Fundamentally, your CPU has finite cores so no matter how many threads you spawn your (individual) CPU cores will resolve the

I'd have to beg to differ. As someone who is passionate about food, cooking and in particular, japanese cuisine - going to Tsukiji was really an amazing experience. Learning first hand from a wholesaler about the daily process of acqui

Surely when a car arrives with a different licence plate and a different driver, you don't get in? Moreover, you report the driver? I'm not strictly pro-Uber but in any system there will be people who try to break the rules. I wou

The entrenched interests complaining about piracy need to realise it is a symptom that their pricing or product isn't good enough. For instance, I would be lying if I said I've never pirated music in my life. My total lifetime spe

Didn't Rubinstein humbly then revisit technique and practise religiously in his 40s? (Not to detract from your point, which I think has value). I think that the middle way is key. I've met people who think work for the sake of wor

The added friction from having to log in every time has enabled me to untrain mindless facebook browsing.

What's your point? That it's easily socially engineered? That it is archaic, inefficient and a waste of human time?

I am not convinced KJU would fear a nuclear fallout. He has nothing to lose. If he were determined to survive, he is sure to have bunkers to protect him and he could almost certainly smuggle himself out of the country. If he really valued t

I get what you're saying, but I think South Korea would bear that cost. I personally know people whose family was split by the arbitrary North/South border divide. For them, I think absorbing and reintegrating the population of th

Are you at GDS? Please can you tell your friends at HMRC that the login system is the most janky UX I've ever experienced and is prone to social engineering due to how complex it is.

I definitely preferred Mithril's m('div') over JSX <div></div>. The closing tags are overly verbose for me.

I don't think your experiences are reflective of the masses. I lack citations but here are some observations that I hope are recognised enough to be apparent. People often find themselves unintentionally browsing Facebook mindlessly. P

This is a cool idea for IoT based policing. As a public entity, they should be confident for all actions to be scrutinised and hold up in a court of law. I was going to suggest connected guns (for additional data harvesting) but realised a

Using symbols I think is more expressive than using strings. I like the separation of strings for external data and symbols for internal data. So symbols will usually be used for enums or things which logic or control flow depend on. Symbol

I mean, social media preys on people's insecurities and need for validation and is allowed for anyone over 13. Pay to win mobile games are designed to be addictive and upsell you to continue playing. At least in a casino you have a cha

Would love to know people's experiences of using Reframe in production. Is the additional structure it imposes on the app worth the complexity it adds in learning the framework?

Indeed they are. I immediately corrected myself in a self-reply. I find it to be very curious how in one country, blasting music at 3am on a train is fair game, while just a stone's throw away over the pond it is a social faux pas to h
