Or, perhaps, them not being in power, it wasn't them who shut them down? I'm sure they influenced the policy and were happy (and wrong) about it, but they were in the opposition, and had been for several years.

Conspiracy theorists can also be really into their stuff. Someone who believes the moon landings never happened and who is enthusiastic about that can probably recall a huge number of facts, whereas I can't even recall the years the fl

I believe at least subways tend to have lousy air: https://engineering.nyu.edu/news/subway-air-pollution-dispro... But I expect it's much better in open-air rail systems.

The one place where I find parenthesis really jarring is in the middle of quotes. I just can't wrap my head around something like > "I'm sending (via email) an encrypted message", Alice said to Bob Especially in a boo

I don't know what the baseline is for CEO popularity (I guess most people don't know that many CEOs by name?) but I'd be hard-pressed to call a 37/50 favorable/unfavorable ratio popular: https://www.nates

I believe Google's Safari payments are a significant chunk of services revenue too (around $20 billion a year.) Then there's Apple TV and Apple Music, which are not nothing.

And in many cases, multiple times. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of SQLite DBs on my phone was in the hundreds and the number of separately compiled copies of the library is in double digits.

Is the syntax really the stumbling block for most languages? Would Rust's lifetimes or Swift's isolation rules be easier if they used more parens? Are the scoping rule differences between Emacs Lisp and Scheme easier to comprehe

The two leads, Rob Morrow and Janine Turner, are doing a rewatch podcast called Northern Disclosure. They seem to be in season 3 right now. No endorsement, haven't tried it myself.

Yeah, agreed. I liked the idea of Mercurial branches better than git's — in principle I prefer more rather than less metadata in history — but they genuinely had a scaling problem. I can't recall the numbers, this being more than

It might be helpful to have a modifier on all the models. It's a bit awkward (not that the naming geniuses at Apple have ever cared about how awkward it's to talk about their products, witness "Apple Watch Edition" and M

That's a serious overgeneralization. It's true for some people, but trains mostly don't bump and swerve enough for that to be a significant problem. Finnish trains have lots of seats facing backwards and while they're no

They could do it, but I wonder if it makes sense financially. It's probably easier for a neutral foundry like TSMC to recoup the costs by selling the capacity to whomever for years to come. Apple probably isn't interested in getti

EU isn't a country, it's a union of 27 countries with their separate legislatures. I live in Finland, a country of five million people. According to your math I think I'm allowed to basically burn a lake of oil every day, rig

I love Yamaha Motor using the tuning forks as their logo. It's a proper beautiful old-timey logo (well, from 1967, apparently, but anyway) and it's just so weird seeing them on a motorcycle. https://www.yamaha.com/

The parliament seats are also apportioned by state. I don't find that a bad idea, living in a small country, and I don't see why the council seats being divided by country is a worse idea than the system in the parliament.

Yeah, and Germany is expensive compared to the Nordics. 6.35 c/kWh right now in Finland, 2.54 c/kWh average over the last 30 days. (clarification: that's euro cent, so 0.0635€ etc)

For what it’s worth, they offer subs via IAP in the iOS App Store. If you subscribe that way, unsubscribing is just a couple of taps. That €349 per year is pretty steep, though.
