So, in effect, large, publicly traded corporations would then own the land, as you describe it? You think that's a good idea?

Absolutely spot on, good comment.

Excellent observation.

TL;DR?

Very true.. Although I think that (for 99% of possible use cases) if you believe that Java is too slow, you're just doing it wrong.

Found the Marxist...

Just the slow and steady decline of HN.. Facts don't count anymore.

Is that what actually happened? So far I've only seen unsubstantiated allegations, nothing more.

Yeah, nice line. It's funny if you realize how often you hear something like this little piece of wisdom every once in a while and usually don't think about how old this sentiment …

So, your interpretation over facts?

Well, what can you expect from The Economist? It's the age of fake news, after all, right? Do you think someone went there and bothered to actually check how things really are at t…

Well, transmitting all this energy is not that trivial, that's the point..

"Both sides" is just a shorthand expression for principles otherwise better understandable as "due process", but this is hard to summarize in just some words or a couple sentences.…

Yes, Hamburg as well, but I think Cologne definitely had the bigger impact :)

Not a specific one, I meant more generally. My point is that length alone isn't a reliable indicator for (journalistic) quality. It is, to some extend. Long articles, with obvious …

But.. but what happened to "refugees welcome"?

Both sides is not a marketing trick. And comparing this with weather forecasts is a false equivalence.

I see, already falling for it..
