Global warming causing war between nuclear armed opponents. Migration flows and competition over ever shrinking resources. It's silly to treat these things as separate categories as if only one will happen at a time. These issues are h

Why did the people die of famine, papa? They didn't ideate food, dear. --- Very unsatisifying indeed. I've always thought of it as the human penchant for escapism. In casu trying to interpret the world so that we control it. Whic

Like 8 years ago I encountered this package, I recall reading that it was designed by someone who programmed components for the Space Shuttles. I was very impressed.

Mistral doesn't have caching on batches. For me that meant they are 10x more expensive than Google. I think its dumb. Their support is hidden away in a chat bubble at the bottom. But they do respond promptly. Its decent, but after swit

A legal professional can be personally liable for not finding the most recent case-law. The knowledge cut off gap means the models sometimes don't know about the most recent case-law, in a given situation. I've seent his happen mu

Its frankly shocking just how many people here aren't Christian (or don't understand love thy neighbor) and are on the evil spectrum of DnD, and bragging about it.

The bottom part of the article mentions they use .backup - did they add that later or did you miss it?

The difference is you have to sue for e.g. negligence if a term is reasonable but not implied in the contract. In civil law you can sue with an action under contract enforcement, which carries a lighter burden of proof

by BartjeD 6mo ago
In most European countries, UK excluded, the law of contracts doesn't work this way. Reasonableness and good faith are implied in contracts. If a clause kills the essence of a contract maliciously, the court will not enforce it.

Good idea, Netherlands should follow suit. The fed is being dismantled in front of our eyes. Militia's shoot US citizens for documenting their illegal behavior. Insane

I think this nuance is one of the 1000 pieces that you could say are nuances if you look at them individually. But, integrally the whole package is just wishful thinking. I mean, maybe it was elastic for imports from Heard and McDonald Isla

You were there? No? You watched the taped proceedings then? I don't think you appreciate the way justice becomes irrelevant in fascist and tyrannical countries. The 'show' of fair justice, dispensed with care and deliberation

That's a straw man; There are many cultures that have a strong emphasis on honor/shame mechanics, which in turn drive suicides in those cultures. And which match cultural expectations in a grim kind of way. The fact that people wa

Suicides are hugely affected by cultural norms. In certain Asian cultures this has quite the history, so this can't be a correct assumption.

A monopoly is measured in a given market by marketshare. Ofcourse the existence of 10 alternatives is meaningless if they count for 0.01% of given market section. Lol

Personally my approach has been to start with big-ints and add a GUID code field if it becomes necessary. And then provide imports where you can match objects based on their code, if you ever need to import/export between tenants, with

That's not true, because there is a hierarchy of legality. If a principle of the EU legal order is at stake, such as the right to privacy, then that constitutional imperative can very well override a new law. The commission and parliam

Joint EU debt isn't new, it already exists. Investments etc.. I don't think your narrative is as informed as you make it out to be.

It is a trade barrier... For services. And that's the ciritical bit of information. Most international trade agreements don't cover services in in a comprehensive manner. Because they are so varied and difficult to regulate. E.g.

In what country hasn't the legal system caught up? The point I raise is that the internet is international. There are N legal systems that are going to deal with this. And in 99% of them this isn't going to end well for Google if

There is no law appointing that organization as a world wide authority on tainted/non tainted sites. The fact it's used by one or more browsers in that way is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Because they, the browsers, are pointing a

I'm afraid you missed the emoticon at the end of the sentence. A `;)` is normally understoond to mean the author isn't entirely serious, and is making light of something or other. Perhaps you American downvoters were on call and w
