Wait until you hear Turks have to pay 120 euros for a tourist visa to Europe...

I did the same, measuring my progress by taking the exams from A1 to B2 every three months, and most of the text I can agree with. But I must say this must be one of the easiest la…

If you took any Indo-European language and created a new language completely contradicting it with respect to any aspect of the language, you'd get something pretty close to Turkis…

In addition to the other replies to you: almost nobody pays $960k in taxes, but they still get this benefit.

Just to clarify, when I said > 3 of them not addressing the point at hand, and 1 point dishonest at best I meant counts of points, i.e., three of them not addressing the issue (poi…

I fully understand your point re reddit, but I think a single person's blog is different than that. A blog is like a book and reddit is like a bookstore if you will, if you go to a…

I have never read the blog, or have any positive or negative association with it, but after all the attention this story has garnered, I just read both the NYT article and Mr. Sisk…

I am not criticizing or sneering, but I am astonished that there are people that have never heard of Maradona.

I don't know if this is what you are actually asking but it reads like that. There are no two Russells, it's the same person, just different kind of works in different periods of h…

Thanks for myself too! :-)

Although al-Zarqawi was the original founder of what became ISIS, the person that made it what it is today is al-Baghdadi, who did spend time in a US prison and I presume OP is tal…

"even" Oslo and Zurich? :-) you picked two of the most expensive cities in Europe if not the world!

This is a crazy form of propaganda instilled by both sides of the political spectrum in the US. Germany's population is 82M+, and much more diverse than you think. You think you ha…

Aside from the spelling issue (which is an issue in many languages), English is one of the simplest languages by far (among languages spoken by 100k+ people).

What about the Intel compute stick and similar?

For those who use Telegram, there is a Telegram bot, where you send it the DOI or the URL and it sends you the PDF -- so much easier than legally accessing the file.

I am not an evangelist of any form, but running python code with pypy isn't that bad in terms of performance (especially given the ease of writing the actual code), and you can use…

although not prolific, the guy has published in top cs theory conferences and journals: http://dblp.uni-trier.de/pers/hd/b/Blum:Norbert dblp is the proper place to check computer s…

That's not how units go however. 780,000 cubic meters is 0.00078 cubic km.
