What are you trying to prove? He never said you're wrong, just the fact that something is illegal doesn't mean that it won't happen to you, just that it's illegal - those are just …

Microsoft hired a lot of people post-covid. Googling, they went from 125k employees in 2017, to 163k in 2020, to 221k in 2022, and have been mostly steady in size since then (lates…

> If a party runs on the platform of ending democracy, and they win a fair election, I don't know of any safety mechanisms in democracy itself that prevent that. Yes there are, law…

> My point is simply that if a person or members of a party get elected in numbers to change that, and were clear of their intentions with voters, its totally within Democratic pri…

If that's true why have a constitution and laws limiting the power of the government? Using your logic, every decision made by the government is fine. If the majority runs on cance…

Battery is fine by itself, but I'd say that the range is somewhere between 315-350km depending on terrain etc. Definitely not the 420km that's advertised. I knew this beforehand fr…

I've been happily driving a BYD Atto 3 for ~6 months now. Very happy with it, its got a lot of nice software and hardware features, carplay/android auto works well, driving is nice…

yes, I immediately thought that the pronunciation was Auschwitz...

While somewhat true, to its credit Teams is using basically the same UI stack for its web-based product (teams.microsoft.com) and its "native" desktop app, so there's a win there. …

Teams is no longer using Angular, it has moved to React

I wonder if it's confused because the code and question contain "std".

I did not miss the point, I just don't see why it's relevant. This isn't a thread about Apple's products and their success. The fact that Apple started from KHTML is not really rel…

Chrome/Chromium was developed for quite a while using Webkit. Chromium was created in 2008 and only after Google had already captured a third of the browser market share (according…

Also forked from something Apple made (Webkit)

That's like saying that people should feel thankful for paying their taxes because that's what paves their roads and builds their schools. Yes, ads bring in money, and maybe they d…

The system already acknowledges that two judges are not guaranteed to reach the same conclusion. First of all, because there's a system of appeals. However, an even stronger exampl…

That's just not true. A lot of judicial systems give leeway for judges to rule using the spirit of the law and not just the letter of the law. Especially for obviously fake argumen…

Two of the justices (Hayut and Baron) are retiring - but I don't see this government trying something so radical again.

OpenAI is not a "thing", the workers are a thing. OpenAI is nothing if the engineers/scientists leave the company to work somewhere else if Altman leaves. According to reports, the…

What I'm trying to say is that games that are differentiators between consoles are common, and this cannot be a basis of blocking such a deal. Indeed, it's no different than applic…

All consoles have console exclusives. Nintendo has Mario/Zelda/Metroid/Pokemon, Sony has The Last of Us, and God of War Ragnarok, and others.

Obviously, if it doesn't happen to you it must mean that he is wrong.

That "proof" is applicable to any algorithm that "exists". As "an algorithm exists, so we can enumerate all of the Turing machines "in parallel" and find it" would work for anythin…

An example for such a proof would be using the probabilistic method. However, even if we are ignoring some artificial problems, there are some "natural" problems that are known to …

Symbols are used for all kinds of "built in" functions, and they were not "introduced" for this feature. As symbols are unique, they don't break/interfere with existing methods/pro…
