I really like plotly, but I'm wondering if anyone has some experience with plotly AND with some other interactive plotting libraries for python (e.g., bokeh or altair). Where are the strengths and weaknesses? Which package to you prefer?

In my experience, at least if one books tickets only several days in advance, the train is not much more expensive, but often comparably. It might be different if you book several weeks in advance, though.

For example I just looked up the fares for a weekend trip Brussel - London on the coming weekend. Leaving after work on Friday, getting back Sunday evening.

  Eurostar: Brussel to London: 17:56 19:03
            London to Brussel: 19:34 22:38
            233€

  Cheapast Flight (Brussels Airlines): 16:55 17:05
                                       17:50 20:00
                                       196€

You can still buy your own domain and get as many new email addresses which pass your test as you want. So you probably need another solution to your problem.

What I noticed what several (large) services these days do, is ask for your credit card number on signup (even if they promise not to bill you).

It's a (somewhat controversial) book.

I like this for the big arrows, but it's missing {}, () and ge.

To me, the most important thing about learning vim is its grammar (verbs and objects). Check out "Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi." [0] (one of stackoverflow's best all time answers).

I know you are joking, but it's not that far fetched https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/may/30/us-army-...

I believe this article [0] (previous discussion [1]) from one of pyston's authors gives a much better overview of why python is slow.

I always recommend 'Your problem with Vim is that you don't grok vi.' to new users starting out in vim [0]. You can never learn about the language of vim too early.

you are right, I should learn to read.

This study [0] (sorry it's in German, English reporting on it: [1, 2]) supports your claim that integration is more or less equally bad across the studied countries. Different countries fail at different aspects of it.

EDIT: originally I misread that OP claimed that other countries did better, changed wording accordingly

Why answer on quora if you can get paid on cent? (assuming it ever gets any traction)

I'm not saying that you are wrong (and I really hope you are right), but the European elites had exactly the same perception before the outbreak of World War I. Google "first globalization".

I am very glad that your and a lot of other people's ancestors didn't think like that or we would probably all live under a fascist regime.

edit: a word

Unfortunately, the first time wasn't as crushing as the second time, at least it wasn't perceived as such.

Before WW1 people also believed that large scale European conflict couldn't happen any more because of the economic entanglement. In hindsight, that notion looks pretty stupid.

Who says it's only about rent? People who live in a place for only a few nights in general behave very different than where they live for a longer time.

I live in a > 100 year old building with bad acoustic insulation with 10 small apartments in it. For some time, the tenant above rented his apartment via AirBnB which was totally annoying and I'm really happy it stopped.

I'm mostly talking about loud noise in the middle of the night, disturbing all the other tenants. Be it coming home drunk at 4am and puking in the stair case, having lots of parties, shouting, door slamming, etc.

If the only difference between bitcoin and bitcoin cash is that bitcoin cash has larger block sizes (true?), why does bitcoin cash not go "back" to the bitcoin blockchain since it is now much longer and should also be a valid bitcoin cash blockchain?

I'm using ZFS on my FreeBSD laptop. Snapshots not only make backups safer (by making sure the complete backup is taken at the same time, and by zfs sending and receiving them), the boot environments feature also make upgrading safer.

I also really like that I don't need to partition my disk, if it turns out that /tmp needs > 10% of the disk for whatever reason: no problem!

And as I like my data, I appreciate checksumming and copy-on-write.

I haven't noticed any bad slowdowns compared to ext4 on my Debian laptop I used before.

As IMDB is part of amazon this seems rather unlikely.

Has anyone (started to) create(d) a FreeBSD port yet?

> [...] have you donated? [...] > FreeBSD runs your movies on Netflix, your games on PlayStation 4 and Nitendo Switch

This really isn't how this should work. If one uses Netflix or some gaming hardware (for which one payed) one should not feel obligated in any way to give to FreeBSD. The Netflix or Nintendo might want to donate to ensure they have an even better system available in the future, but because of the BSD license, they aren't obligated either.

That aside, as a personal FreeBSD user, I have actually donated to the FreeBSD foundation every year for the last four or five years and plan to do it again this year.

The bombing operations forced Germany not only to use its planes defensively instead of tactically against the Soviet Union (and build high altitude fighters to begin with), but also forced them to spend an enormous amount of resources on anti-air guns, bunkers for civilians, military assets and manufacturing, radar systems, and what not, all of which could have being spend.

As especially the USA's industrial output was much larger than Germany's, bombers might still have been a good investment, even if it didn't actually reduce Germany's industrial capacity, because it did reduce its capacity to wage ground war.

EDIT: Also, even if Germany's industrial output did grow during WWII, it still tied up an enormous amount of resources: "The Allied bombing campaign also tied up valuable manpower, with Albert Speer (Germany's Minister of Armaments) estimating that in the summer of 1944 between 200,000 and 300,000 men were permanently employed in repairing oil installations and placing oil production underground.

I couldn't agree any less:

    % mkvirtualenv -p `which python3` notebook
    (notebook) % pip install notebook jupyter notebook scipy pandas matplotlib pdbpp ipython

(not sure if all of them are really necessary)

This looks interesting, but I find the documentation somewhat lacking. Is the user supposed to know ggplot?

Title sounds a bit too clickbaity IMO, but I guess who would want to read an article titled "German Bundeswehr cooperates more closely with European Allies".

Living near coal mines, coal or nuclear power plants isn't great either.

Sounds like they were talking about work, just not the author's work.

I don't think this would have been any harder had it been written in C(++) for someone comfortable in C(++).

But I do believe there are more people comfortable with web technologies these days.
