It wasn't about diving in particular, but rather post-match revisions and sanctions becoming more common to punish unsportsmanship. Add VAR in recent years, and the newest "1 minute out" rule for fake injury, and today player

Doesn't this new law overlap with the existing system? A manufacturer within the EU is already paying taxes, which in part should be used for managing waste. If they buy the packaging materials from another EU company, well that compan

The language also takes backwards compatibility very seriously, anything that goes into std "must be maintained forever". It is also argued that a large stdlib means the maintainers have less time to work on the language itself. I

I think a good metric for "boring" technology, at least for languages/frameworks, is how painful the process of updating an abandoned/unmaintained project after 9-12 months is. NodeJS itself qualifies as boring, but the

The same UEFA that added redundant matches and teams to the Champions League for money, and that came up with the Nations League because they wanted to extract more money from the national teams?

I agree, but one thing is to demand all your users to be on the latest Chrome, and another one is to support browsers that are no longer maintained and contain security issues (IE). If we discourage people from driving old insecure cars, we

I had a contract once to save a government website that had serious performance issues, it was so unusable that people preferred to go in-person and wait 4h in a queue rather than try to fill the forms online. The frontend was in React beca

One important thing that is often not mentioned is the lack of operator overloading. In Elixir if you have "a + b" it means "a" and "b" must be numbers for the code to succeed, which narrows down the possibilit

Then people from a sanctioned countries are blocked from open source, or worse, you have to explain to the bank and/or the government why you sent 20USD to someone in Venezuela.

Dependency hell. Usually how it goes is you have to develop a new feature, you find a library or a newer version of the framework that solves the problem but it depends on a version of another library that is incompatible with the one in yo

Going from Django to Phoenix I prefer manual migrations. Despite being a bit tedious and repetitive, by doing a "double pass" on the schema I often catch bugs, typos, missing indexes, etc. that I would have missed with Django. You

Hey, first I want to say that Oban has been a lifesaver for me and it is the tool I miss the most from the Elixir ecosystem when doing work in Python. Thanks so much and congrats on the release. I have one question: are there any plans for

As another 3rd world citizen living in Northern Europe, I usually describe it as "processes and rules over common sense". They understand your situation, they agree with you, they can solve your problem, but they will not do it be

Keep in mind in Argentina public domain works are not free (free as beer) of use, you have to pay a fee to the government, for example if you play Beethoven music in your short film or any work you created. This is likely going to change si

In an ideal world none of the past 70 years of conflicts that led to this unrecoverable resentfulness would have happened. Unfortunately the only peaceful solution I can imagine is for Israel to let Gazans move to other Arab-world countries

Surprisingly, no. Milei's party does not have majority in the Congress, he does not have much power, and the best example is his omnibus bill [1]. Initially Milei's party attempted to pass a massive 300-page reform, consisting pri

It is always the same debate in any cryptocurrency thread. People from economically free countries cannot understand cryptocurrencies because they are not meant for them and label them as scam. They cannot understand what 85% income tax is,
