Possibly you are conflating being alone to loneliness?

Confirmed.

One reason to buy a laptop is school/uni. After that it feels like many people move there "computing" to their phones.

Time for some Internet researching...

I couldn't find any news items or announcement about France blocking access to reddit. Any links to this?

And at least in my mind associated with Maya rituals.

Advice to Australians - use this once you have your joint (bank) accounts sorted out, otherwise your life will get more difficult.

It may apply to some other services as well.

That's a little confusing because faux is pronounced fo or foe.

what i want are dumb cars.

Doesn't this bring the US in line with the EU, Australia, and I would assume a range of other countries ?

IIRC, wasnt this their stated intention from the beginning, along with a plan to virtually test against DNA?

Maybe it's my ignorant paranoia - but entering my google password into a login box produced by an app i just downloaded makes me nervous.

I am (mostly) sure it was doing a legitimate OAuth - but how can I tell?

I note that section 1.6 is "Comply with all industry security standards relevant to your business such as PCI DSS, HITRUST, ISO27001, and SSAE 18".

That looks larger than all the other requirements.

In many places, but not word (sadly).

I got into scheme, prolog, smalltalk, Haskell, and ocaml - without an academic background in those languages.

I dont find them useful commercially YMMV but I do think they stretch the way you program and I actually enjoy them more. Prolog is my favourite.

You and I have had quite different experiences. After 30 years I have [seen] most projects meet budgets. Time frames have varied more but that's usually driven by client scope creep.

We estimate all the time.

Milk bar is an older term, maybe 50's and 60's. We only ever call these places "The Shop" - not very romantic.

Australian.

Yeah I care. I saw them years ago in brisbane. Good band.

I agree, in the few cases I have seen the company gets angry.

I did the same. How do you uninstall it?

This is correct. I didn't register, so I didn't demo.

In 15 minutes this app will disappear from my mind.

You would have to do this enough for it to be statistically significant otherwise it probably just averaged away.

OTOH....once might be seen as smoke-screening, making you more suspicious.

I wonder how this would equate to being in space (preferably in a space suit) ?

What about the rest of of the western world?

My thoughts exactly. It has nothing to do with language at all.

I agree. I can only assume that the article is an example of one possible line of solution.

Given the performance characteristics of human typing speed I would use a disc-based database. Simple to implement.

Over the distance of time it is easier than the year 8 exam.

I second Stroustrup's book. I liked it a lot.

why should we care?

MUMPS == ugly.
