To add to that, Vote Leave used AggregateIQ which is essentially the same company as CA.

As a general nerd I feel like this is a common experience and one that I've quite enjoyed when reading countless sci-fi/fantasy books. You start of and many cultural references or things seem completely alien and only start to cli

>Brexit vote should never have been legally binding It should have been legally binding, if it had been then it could have been challenged in court and very likely would have been overturned due to the cheating of the leave campaigns

Problem with the Tories not blinking is that they don't have a majority in parliament. They're currently being propped up (they have a confidence and supply arrangement) by the DUP who are very much against a sea border and would

There are ongoing investigations into the leave campaigns (which Wetherspoons was a part of), new evidence was published last week and a few people are appearing in front of a HoC committee this week. So the timing isn't really odd and

Depends on what the streamers thing is really, someone like Arteezy can easily pull in 10-20k viewers without even using a mic or cam. Though for people like him streaming isn't what they use to make a living either.

Opinion pieces have a bright orange banner and use that same colour elsewhere in the articles, it's also used on the links to the opinion pieces. What else could they be doing to point out the difference? How could they make it more cl

It's very misleading. It's not a Dota 2 AI it's a 1v1 SF mid AI. It's not undefeated, Suma1l and another pro beat it. I think there is a fair argument for Dota being vastly more complex than Go but there almost certain

I haven't actually made an 'It's impressive.. but' comment yet but I've wanted to so here's why I'd say that. Firstly, much like most things a lot of the press releases have been pretty disingenuous. I&#x2

Swap out 'cereal box' for 'WoW char' or similar and it's already a reality for some.

> Americans subsidize drugs for the rest of the world. Complete nonsense. I see this regurgitated again and again with nothing to back it up and it falls apart under the slightest inspection.

> a massive voter-base of disenfranchised American workers, nearly completely ignored by the administrations of the past 25 years. I think most people accept that but it does still leave the question, 'why Trump?'

+1 for Robert Welch knives, have a few myself. My friend, who's a CDP at a double starred place, said they were comparable to his Globals when he tried them out too.

I'll tell you what, we can talk about the efficacy of the various leave campaigns when the NHS gets its 350 million a day and we have 'Sovereignty'.

Why do you assume that the big set is altruistic? Isn't it selfishly trying to optimize towards its goal, at the detriment of some single units.

The more units thing is part of the reason I think Dota is a better challenge, I can't help but feel a SC2 AI could use inhuman micro as a crutch whereas in Dota mechanical / micro skill doesn't provide quite as big an advant

> Why does anyone work eight? Or ten? Or twelve? Did this 8 to 10 hour per day thing get sprung on people and forced upon them from nowhere? No. Of course not. It's something that achieved a "natural" balance over decades

Sorry but this comment is just incredibly stupid. You (probably) have the right to free speech but you aren't forced to spew bile constantly. You might have the right to bear arms but you wouldn't be forced to carry an AR-15 24&#x

Unions have fought for and won such a huge amount of the workers rights we enjoy today that it would be a disservice to try and cover all of them in a comment. Google is your friend if you'd like to learn about the history of unions an

I've seen this idea pushed a ton recently, especially over on /r/ukpolitics and it seems like nonsense. I think the idea stems from the way the Graun has opened up it's 'Comment is Free' section which has lea

If your goal is to make a good product then introducing points of failure around its power supply probably isn't a great idea.

I honestly can't see why people care so much about having long update windows. Batteries simply aren't good for many cycles so it doesn't make sense to support a phone for longer than its battery will last. Also, it's a
