Is this true?

Webworkers is a multithread concept and as far as I know all variables are scoped but maybe not like they are in C.

I know a painter who paints depth of field from pictures he takes. But the lens effects of Vermeer are unknown to me.

Ofcourse there are forces that stimulate this separation (like PG says) but in the end it's just us.

The solution it to listen to yourself. Am I feeling less than this person? Am I feeling more than this person? If so: stop that thought.

For example: example@localhost is valid but is refused by most validators.

The trend today is that sites are crashing my up-to-date Firefox browser[1] because they need a ton of Javascript to get the layout right.

I don't mind a fancy site but just let me get the information I need.

[1] I own a not so new smart phone that does the job well for everything else.

Trust is something delicate which works best by using face to face communication.

So it's ok not to trust everything you read.

But this story is about private communication not being as private as thought.

I think icons next to a text label are very useful because they guide the eye so you can quickly see where your buttons are.

I started using Signal because I don't want people seeing the messages I post. But in the end it's only trust that makes me think Signal is safe to use.

A lot of people also trusted Juniper. But that trust is gone. And not only for Juniper. What about other brands? We don't know.

Being able to help out your neighbor isn't connected to success in our society. I think a lot of posters in this thread don't realize the destinction between potential and success.

They are recycling Banksy's 'fun park' into houses.

Maybe some day we will all have a Mr. Fusion Home Energy Reactor in our cars[1]

I think in general the cars will be programmed to avoid any damage.

But what if a company starts providing rides that promise no injury will happen to the passenger?

That's why laws are needed to prevent this from happening in the future.

Side note: in The Netherlands we have an automated sea barrier [1]. The system is made automatic so nobody has to make the decision to close it. So yeah, some systems are programmed to save peoples lives even if this means the lives of others can't be saved.

I am also thinking about a 3d camera. Maybe those are getting good enought to measure distance.

I believe every project has it's boring parts. But when the goal is positive it helps to get thrue.

About what it takes to kill at work and be a dad at home.

I think this is one of the great results of the new Microsoft.

People don't understand what monads are because they don't know what problem they solve.

This article has the same problem. It doesn't explain what problem categories solve. Well it does but the average reader doesn't understand the problem exists.

In the USA it's estimated that one third of the homeless people suffer a serious mental illness.

I live in the Netherlands and I think the numbers are the same here. Ofcourse there is help but most homeless people move around a lot so it can be difficult to track them and help them.

Also: having worked with homeless people I know for sure they will get some kind of mental illness sooner or later.
