Its important to note that most of those "irrelevant" countries are only irrelevant because they're perpetually under the thumb of world powers. Hence why they petition the UN. And, hence why empires and…

Yeah you know, the UN, notoriously hostile towards Israel. Despite, you know, literally creating it.
This is already a thing, compiled languages have been doing this for decades. This is just C++ templates with extra steps.
This is programmer thinking, laws aren't algorithms. The laws regardless this almost always make a distinction between intentionally surveillance and by chance background noise. Taking a picture of the street with…
I have some loyalty in open source project I rely on and I regularly donate to them, particularly KDE and thunderbird. Maybe loyalty is the wrong word - if they really go to left field, I would abandon them. But I have…
If your phone is remotely rooted, the screenshot is providing no security.
Yes, 1500 or so.
No offense intended to JavaScript monkeys, I'm a JavaScript monkey too. And a PHP monkey, which I think is worse.
Right, I'm just telling you that's that's simply not true. And, if you really want to compare apples to apples, you have to compare properties in the same area. Its easy to make housing look cheap when you compare upper…
For most places in the US rent is lower than a mortgage. Primarily because: - multi-unit buildings are significantly more efficient in cost per-unit. The cost of a 1500 sqft apt and 1500 sqft home is not the same, the…
Not this simple: for early career software engineers, 10% pay raise per year is pretty low. I would expect 20% per year if you move companies. Can't really move companies easily if you're owning a home, ergo, about 10%…
No, it's not, not always is my point. We don't count the asset of having the home because we're comparing that part to the stock market investment. Made up numbers: consider: Mortgage: 2,000 Home price: 200,000…
Obviously the risk of this is significantly higher than just renting. If you have your first job and therefore little to no liquid cash, and then on top of that you require tenants to make your mortgage, you're in a…
The average home is also going to be in a very suboptimal location. If you compare homes and apartments in the same location, the gap grows even wider. Yes, $4,000 a month in Manhattan is expensive. But $4,000 might be…
The main difference is that you can invest the difference in renting vs owning, and you might come out on top in the long run. It depends on the housing market, the stock market, and where you are.
That's because real estate is notoriously high. Also, if you're buying in NYC you WILL get recurring and increasing monthly costs. That $800/month HOA? Yeah, it's not gonna be $800 in 5 years. Buying is not the same…
Homes are not low-risk or stable at all - you transfer the risk to your job. If you lose your employment and you have a home, that's a much riskier situation than if you're renting. Because, if you cant find a job in…
To be completely fair, AI really does use more water than other typical compute tasks, because AI takes A LOT of compute. No, it's not like email, or a web server. I can run an email server or apache on my rinky dink…
Let's stop bullshitting, nobody here is going to contribute to Gentoo and is now put off because of this policy change. What we're looking at is mostly JavaScript monkeys who feel personally offended because they're…
If you recycle then it's probably just going to a street or ocean somewhere else. Plastic recycling is more or less made up.
Scope creep destroys projects and software. Most software is bad because it does too much, so most of it barely works and of the parts that do kind of work, they don't work together. Writing code is easy. Not writing…
Other countries have competent language programs, the US is pretty unique in having unbelievably shit education in foreign languages. That is to say, I would not be surprised if, in China, people are quiet fluent in…
