I don't care about games that aren't available on any device that I already own.
It might not be clickbait as in it is not intentionally misleading, but it still is a very confusing title.
Not everyone that visits this site is a typography expert...
I live in a country where I pick a party to represent me in the national government, not a local person, and it seems to work just fine.
When you say "the entire population", you mean the entire population of the country "USA", right? Because as someone from another continent, it seems like there is a very specific set of opinions that you want included.
You use terms like "the other side" of the political discourse, which to me, reduces the set of opinion to two specific sets of opinions, namely the two sets represented by the two major parties in the american two party system.
As someone from "the outside", this seems like a very narrow view of reality, even if you managed to get your "unbiased AI", that represents both major american political parties, it will still seem like a very narrow and biased AI to someone from the outside of that.
Also, what exactly is the goal of a conversational AI? is it just to make a conversation with it seem like a conversation with an average american? If so, why would anyone want that? Wouldn't it be of more value to have an AI that could tell me what people with knowledge of a subject thinks of it, rather than what random people think?
(I have no idea if this comparison is accurate, but I do know that coolers commonly contain gasses that you don't want to release)
And it's not awful, and people are not rude, just not "fake-friendly" as americans.
I also didn't understand that you were making a joke, and was sitting here wondering how using a different type of database would solve this kind of problem.
and no, I haven't read the article, and I'm not going to.
Is the source dugin himself?
In 1925 Bayer merged with five other German companies to form IG Farben
IG Farben the made Zyklon B, and as a result it got split up after the war, into it's original companies, one of them bayer.
So, yes, you are mostly correct.
This is the conclusion I came to a few years ago when trying to find out why nobody had ever bothered to translate his writings into english:
Reddit usually points out that what he writes aligns pretty well with what putin seems to think. The problem is just that this is what almost every russian fascist thinks, it is nothing unique about dugin, he is just the one russian fascist thinker that reddit got their eyes on...
If the topic is some change in the latest release of a programming language, I usually find the comments here to be helpful.
But if the topic is global politics or economy, then sure, the quality here isn't much better than some other random social media site.
But I think that the best way to start the conversation is usually with a well-written article.
If there would only be a title and no article, I'm pretty sure that I would find the comments to be less interesting.
But maybe I'm wrong, and since my argument is based on the original article being well-written, maybe it isn't true for most posts.
But I still think that I would rather try to find the posts with good articles, and just ignore the rest, and hopefully, that is what the ranking system does (at least help with).
HN is something that I read for a very specific subset of information.
I don't find this to be that strange.
5000 AT4 and some other stuff.

Unfortunately no NLAWS. =(

In Sweden, we use week-number quite often, but it is nowhere to be found in our calendar software, so, there is a webpage that just displays what week it is now, nothing else..
also: vecka = week
nu = now
So, if we think about it as using a int-128 or a string[~25], one of them takes more space than the other.
So, except for taking up more space, the question then becomes, are larger keys/indexes less efficient, I would say yes.
Other people can probably explain this better than me, but at least for me, it seems intuitive that going through and comparing entries in a list of small things is easier than doing it on a list of large things.

Because what you are saying might be how it is today (especially in america), but it doesn't have to be like that.
The book I mentioned tries to explain why, and I think it does a good job at it.
I get the feeling that you claim that it is all fraud and lies, and that those who disagree can see no wrong with it at all.
Then someone responds with a nuanced reply, something that I, as someone who lives in a university town in Sweden, have the impression that almost everyone in academia actually agrees with.
And then it turns out that you also mostly agree. So, now I'm asking myself (and you): Why did I read that first post of yours as so hostile? As someone who was actively trying to create mistrust?
Is it just because how the debate climate is on the internet, or should you perhaps consider trying to be a bit more nuanced when communicating on the internet?
Sure, the quote in itself is great, but the post that you replied to is pointing out that the person who made that quote is himself doing the same thing as those journalists that he is criticizing.
I would expect the people who are listening to the presentation to be the ones paying, not the one giving the presentation.
Frequently asked questions Does it work on iOS devices? Yes. We're using a workaround, since iOS does not support native browser fullscreen.
If a player has 60 minutes for all their moves, then spend less then a minute for each move, until they are so far behind that in your mind, the game is over, now, they are spending 20 minutes on one move. And I have to still sit in front of the computer, because if I leave, they might make a move just before their timer runs out, hoping that I have already left the room, and now I will lose because it's my timer that runs out.
