ileri62··on Uber is dropping rates for drivers down from 80 cents/mile to 60 cents/mile
good. The (car)-sharing industry can't die soon enough
ileri62··on I Miss Rails
Serious question: Django doesn't even have lazy loading. Why do people use it? Am I missing something? No way I'd wait a few seconds to get something big from the db
ileri62··on Amazon in Its Prime: Doubles Profits, Pays $0 in Federal Income Taxes
I bet he means western economists aka lobbyists
ileri62··on El Chapo Trial: Why His I.T. Guy Had a Nervous Breakdown
snitches end up in ditches
ileri62··on Metabase, an Uber Co-Founder’s New Big Data Startup, Raises $13M
Why is shit like this even news? Venture capitalists fund every random dude's and his mother's enterprise
ileri62··on Moving from Go to PHP Again
100% agree. The syntax of languages such as php, c++ and rust just look ugly af. The use of $ and :: piss me off the most
ileri62··on VW, BMW and Daimler hold talks on cooperation in self-driving cars
oh right, even though he also lied to court they suspended the procecution. Good old democratic germany
ileri62··on VW, BMW and Daimler hold talks on cooperation in self-driving cars
The greece part was nothing but blackmail anyway. Hundreds of thousands, possibly millions are worse off in greece just because schäuble.

If greece were governed by a right wing party, I'm sure he'd have been most generous. Germany put pressure on them to get rid of the leftists.

ileri62··on VW, BMW and Daimler hold talks on cooperation in self-driving cars
>it makes no sense to single out VW.

merely giving an example that fits this thread (automotive).

The entire case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDU_donations_scandal
ileri62··on VW, BMW and Daimler hold talks on cooperation in self-driving cars
Not to mention that germany did absolutely fucking nothing against VW when dieselgate happened. Still waiting to see Winterkorn & friends under the guillotine for scamming the entire world.

What happened instead? Normal engineers got blamed instead of executives. Fucking capitalism and fucking CDU, SPD and FDP. The sole reason for their existence is to sack money from lobbyists.

When you have people like Schäuble, a piece of shit that was convicted for corruption in 1999, who was the minister of finance for the past couple of years in germany, it makes sense that germany does nothing against big corporate.

ileri62··on Airlander 10: World's longest aircraft gets full-production go-ahead
Wasn't that rather the helicopter noise? Either way it was a stupid decision to include audio. Nearly blew my ears off
ileri62··on What Cafés Did for Liberalism
wat? If they are the same, then why do they have different names? Get a grip. Social democrats have nothing to do with socialists.
ileri62··on What Cafés Did for Liberalism
Then again you are using the North American definition for left and socialist, because the North American liberals are neither of those two.

Edit: to be fair though, I wouldn't consider liberals of any definition to be left or socialist. They might have some left leaning positions on immigration or the environment, but due to their capitalist nature they can not be considered left.

ileri62··on O2 'to seek millions' in damages over data outage
No company in the world has a lower reputation than O2. It can't get lower
ileri62··on China holding at least 800k Muslim minorities in internment camps
inb4 someone blames communism or calls china communist again
ileri62··on Using D to Create the World’s Fastest File System
that's just nitpicking. I bet you can find equally ugly examples in the other 2 languages. My point is that "standard" code is infinitely more readable than either c++ or rust.
ileri62··on Using D to Create the World’s Fastest File System
Here's the thing though: They wrote a new compiler and a new standard library to make the language work for them. How exactly is that good publicity for D?

D itself looked and still looks very interesting to me, as it can be very performant, without having insanely ugly syntax such as c++ or rust (inb4 rUsT iS VeRy ReADaBlE).

ileri62··on “I didn’t meet my girlfriend until 12 years after our daughter was born”
Agree. He mentioned 23andMe waaaaaaaay too many times for this not to be an ad.
