what on Earth are you talking about? The most commmon "at will" limit in Europe is 12 weeks. The ONLY countries with more than 17 weeks gestrational limit is the Netherlands, Sweden. The UK, Chezhia, and Finland do not even legally have "at will" abortions, which might differ in practise. So while we can say that MAYBE UK is 20+ weeks that is still the ONLY country in Europe.

these are nationalist dog whistles....
1. the JVM does not support generics as a language construct, and are simply a compiler feature of Java
2. the JVM and Java differentiates primitive and reference types, Integer being a reference (boxing) type of the primitive type int. And, generics do not support primitive types anyway.
The JVM implementations are incredible pieces of machinery, and even if they did not pack or stride their primitive arrays -- which they absolutely do -- the JVM & compilers will handle an incredible amount of runtime memory layout and packaging.
Who on Earth wrote this? This is not at all true.
This is HN and I do not want to make a personal attack or anything against you. But this comment is clearly discriminatory and, frankly, what ever a light version of "racism" is. Please stop generalising millions of people based on some anecdote and spread it online. Eastern Europeans are already marginalized in the Western software world, and English is a non-native language to them. They are as diverse as you and me
Could someone explain this? I cannot find any information online
This was a decision by DOCTORS. Meanwhile, I read HN and reddit et al. and what do I see? That AZ and J&J vaccines are totally safe and they ban all other comments for "misinformation". What gives?
Please educate me I would like to know your opinion.
Just like the USA has been a front runner for racial equality and LBGTQ+ rights throughout the world, some people use the argument that "homosexuality is not allowed in Saudi Arabia, but that is THEIR culture" a good one. It is a universal human right!
Unfortunately, there are many places (which correlate with Spanish speaking or non-English) where non-binary and female presenting people are marginalized and do not dare speak up, while the Hispanic population of the USA does - the young generation at least. 10 years ago people used "gay" or "f*g" as an insult, but now-a-days they surely do not!
We have quickly changed as a society, and I hope that while today some people use the same arguments for the gendered language, I think in 10 years time the young generations in many Spanish speaking countries will help their friends to ungenderify - REALLY means to remove the patriarchic heritage of the lingo - Spanish and all other non-indigenous languages.
What would you propose other than latinx or latin@?
Some languages have unfortunate misogynistic and transphobic/monogendered built-ins. This is problematic for a large minority of the LGBTQ+ population and many Native/Indigenous/First nations with different linguistic cultures. The USA is one of, if not the, most diverse country in the world with people from all over. It is to me beautiful that the country can embrace both the latinx/hispanic population and at the same time say to these marginalized groups "we hear you, we listen to you, and we understand you."
To me the fact that the WH and President Biden use these important ungenderizations is a very important step, just like the federal desegregation of schools. It demonstrates how far we have come in just two generations. I have though met many latinx people who prefer latin@ instead, while others say that it reduces the language for non-binary folks.

Misgendering is a huge trigger for a lot of people, and considered a "micro agression" if you are familiar with that term. This is why most people go out of their way, just like if an ethnicity says that a certain word is a slur (i.e. c-word for Asians, or even worse for Black or African Americans) then people stop using that term.
Just like a racial minority, we must in my opinion - and most other people in the US - sit down a listen to their concerns. A male dominated society has for centuries built stigma and downplayed the significance of females and non-binary folks, such that it has even spread into the language itself.
