The european parliament is elected by citizens, and the council is formed of the heads of state of each member country (which would have been elected in the way each country decides).

Which part with direct power isn't elected?

The "invisible buffer" doesn't match OS X functionality (with Firefox if it matters).

In the state dropdown of the article I can type "New J" to highlight "New Jersey" and then press backspace + "Y" and it will highlight "New York". In the headless UI version if I try similar "To" to get "Tom…" but if I press backspace and "a" I don't get "Tanya…" I get "Arlene…"

If you want to seriously discuss you should put which data points your comparing so others can also compare. When I look at that sheet and look at the rates comparing unvaccinated vs fully faccinated the death rate is lower for every age group when vaccinated.

This isn't an agreement with the parents comment about Tesla but re-usable rockets weren't invented by SpaceX. The idea existed for a while and various projects got to different stages. Including a functional 'McDonnell_Douglas_DC-X'.

The project got taken over by NASA and the budget cut before being axed. You really do sound a bit too fanatical and should probably question more instead of accepting companies as entirely revolutionary.

The no JIT is only for the metro interface and ARM based machines - this is only for tablet like machines and is for the same reason apple do the exact same, the apps are all sandboxed and can't write executable memory regions. Normal x86 machines will behave just as they do now.

What does Native really mean in this context? It launches from Dashboard or is it that it's purchasable from the App Store? Being able to save sites to springboard has been possible for years.

This isn't using native controls, just HTML and CSS to make it look native. Javascript is a great languages however HTML + CSS were not designed for this purpose, try creating a complex UI in this and watch performance start dropping quickly.

Think you probably are - last time I used spoon you still had to be using Windows; it just meant you could run IE6, 7 and 8 at the same time.

That's true for the occupants of the vehicle but the dangers of those outside are greatly different. I'm not saying that planes will never be flown autonomously however there are a lot of hurdles including convincing the public.

If a car when parking is out by 1% it's maybe sticking out of the space and causes other people to have to park badly too, if a plane rounds incorrectly or a sensor plays up and is 1degree out (so even less than 1%) it lands onto of a terminal filled with tourists.

Even as a professional programmer I tend to trust unknown programmers less and less, bugs get uncovered too late, shortcuts taken... online e-commerce fine, cars and busses - maybe but scaling up the trust and risk involved is difficult.

Although I have used Go in the past and do like it - thought I would just point out that nearly every positive about Go you mentioned had 'Good enough' prefix it. Are you actually finding Go good or only enough for your current needs?

As a question: do you see parts of your startup expanding past the area of Go? Would a mixture of other languages help?

Amusing - but a car with 2 passengers going at a conservative 30MPH is very different to a plane flying 9KM over the ground at 567MPH.

I'm just hoping that in 80 years I won't be alive to see my comment becoming horribly wrong, with people laughing at it while a processor flies them across the world.

Just because your not signed in doesn't mean it can't register a complaint - by not tracking username or personal details with the complaint the point of being signed in is reduced to nothing. They can't even make sure you do it twice without tracking your user ID (which they won't do because they could then get username or password).

Therefore being able to register a complaint not signed in seems odd but fine.

By generation he means in this design revision - this air is drastically different to the last one. I owned the first Unibody Macbook Pro, ordered it an hour after release... I'm on my third motherboard. Sometimes the first batch of hardware has issues fixed later on.

For OSX I use 'DigitalColor Meter', comes with all OS X's and isn't browser based. Can do Hex + RGB, install Afloat and you can keep it above all windows on your mac.

There is a fork of MySQL called Drizzle which is run by the chief architect of MySQL before sun bought them. From what I remember reading a while ago it's being specifically targeted at being used for Web Backends.

Just signed up and haven't had a full chance to go through it all however there are three things I've found so far (neither are going to stop me from using the service).

1) When searching for films, on the search results mousing over the films doesn't reveal the 'add to watch' and 'mark as seen' buttons. This is slightly annoying as I'm normally searching for a film because I know it.

2) Your whole system is designed for finding films however on the film page all there is is a poster image, maybe include links to IMDB, Amazon but also a trailer pulled in from youtube. If I see a film on your site at the moment I'm going wow - let's find a trailer and then leaving the site.

3) (TINY) an autocomplete for the search would be incredibly useful.

I'll try and use the service more tonight and give some more feedback - so far am loving it and will hopefully be using it for the foreseeable future.

Although I don't actually take Comp-Sci myself, a few of my friends have in the past and still do; at all colleges near me all default to VB with absolutely no consideration to other languages to the point of running windows on brand new iMacs for better support.

VB is a horrible language to learn, but the UK system of learning computing is the worst I've ever seen anywhere; I took it as a GCSE and at the same time as getting through a fair amount of Google Code Jam, Getting a job building web apps I managed to fail the web design module - was my site valid? yes, did it follow the spec? yes. I failed because I didn't submit my write-up as a .doc; instead I used a valid open .rtf format.

Thought I would open the discussion here - who actually likes the syntax used in these libraries? Personaly I'm not a fan of extending the language syntax for new features. Adding new features I like but at least try and stick to CSS's style.
