instead of "expression" you meant "exception", right?

That's not Java's fault though. IntelliJ IDEA is also built on Java and runs just fine.

It's a collective action problem. One person's subscription will not make the difference needed to improve journalism enough for them to get a direct benefit. Further, the main ben…

I don't like Canadian telecoms, but in order to get the $, they have to be employing full-time journalists, which is the outcome we need. What's the alternative?

I haven't seen anyone put any other alternatives up for debate. I know Poilievre has talked about defunding the CBC, but I don't know of anything he has proposed that would result …

TLDR: it's being worked on, but not ready yet.

There is a real taboo about mentioning veganism. That said, it's fairly mainstream these days -- any big enough BBQ will have to have some option. Lactose/gluten/shellfish/peanut e…

You still have two votes: with your wallet, and with your ballot. Think back to the times of slavery. You could've said: "I don't own any slaves, so there's nothing I can do". In t…

You could say the same thing about doing nothing. As evidence I submit the study referred to in the article.

The nice thing about a standard like K8S is how there are other clients to choose from. You can do everything from the CLI with kubectl of course, but there are also a bunch of app…
