Of course it is lower! You have plenty of rich people living in known places without any special security and no one comes to kidnap them because they cannot just send over their w…

Soooo exactly what Zod is doing?

It was a win win arrangement of sorts. Europe got to spend less on defense. US won a reliable ally that would not challenge them much, and help enforce worldwide US dominance. Basi…

There are way more possibilities. And the main one is that any negative effect would only be visible in a long time (let's say 10 years) and by that time it may take 10-20 years ag…

Most brand values exist because purchases are social capital, and this has been the case for a long time.

I have never seen a syntax highlighter for SQL that actually covers the real deal from Postgres dialect. Basic stuff is covered and then suddenly you use a combination that isn't c…

Emojis are one of the best things about Unicode. They're not even that complex to handle, and they allow sooooo many things.

Hora do you know that? I've seen really well optimized React apps and very poorly optimized Svelte apps. It's not like using Svelte magically makes performance good. Just like usin…

Interestingly it happened to me a lot in France but never in Sweden. So it cannot be just about temperature

"robust ecosystem" is a rather optimistic view of the rust situation... I would have said "a bunch of 0.x libraries that do 80% of the work and let you figure you the hard 20% whil…

Then free speech does not currently exist anywhere, right?

One could argue video players in general just lose relevance in an age of streaming ... And everything has definitely not crystallized around h.264. plenty of sources will give you…

I have not seen that's happening anywhere. What actually happens is that parties will just focus on whoever votes and ignore the rest. Sure, maybe if participation dropped suddenly…

This is obviously not accurate. The 48h delay is not 48h after squatters entered the place, but 48h after you DISCOVERED them. And after those 48h you will still get your property …

If you are a large company owning hundreds of thousands of them and knowing you will have disk failures regardless, maybe. If you own just a few hundreds and a failure costs you mo…

For migration, sure, but it is very related to the history of the US (nearly everyone is a relatively recent immigrant so it feels wrong to refuse that others come in). For abortio…

Is anything, experiencing WW1 should have the opposite effect given its absurdity. See Journey to the End of the Night for instance

I don't think people are worried about losing access to a particular LLM. They are worried about losing access to Gmail, google docs, google photos, their phone, google cloud just …

I suppose "by some measure" means "by none whatsoever"? Tobacco sales are at lowest point for 50 years, and even occasional usage is close to 50y low. I remember when you couldn't …

I do really benefit from finally having a way to use shell scripting. Life is too short to remember hundreds of one letter options with obscure combinations

I do not know where you are from but the description of the plugs basically match the ones still installed in France (although many don't require screws because they have built it …

It is not that easy and depends a lot on context. I know people who use "usted" to their grandparents (who use "tu" in returns), but at the same time you have lots of shops where t…

Clever children always find a way though

LVMH is very very far from being a monopoly. Luxottica is under investigation currently just like the tech giants are (and received already fines just like 2 years ago). De Beers w…

Latency of what? Starting the OS is definitely faster. Launching software is also orders of magnitude faster. HDD don't requires hours of defragmentation to avoid slowing down to a…
