Exactly, this has nothing to do with free software. Most people are so messed up mentally and emotionally these days that they react like injured animals to any kind of outside stimuli. In the end I'm pretty sure they hate themselves more than anything. Expressing anger over the obvious injustice in this shit world is one thing, flaming any one who threatens to rock your boat another.
The only reason why things are scrapped is when the price of repairing starts to exceed the value of the product. In places where labor is cheaper and products are more expensive, you see more of a repair culture. Cars is one of those examples - if you've got some basic repair skills, you can keep a car running for a long time. Getting or making parts can be challenging, but not unsolvable. The problem of course is that a lot of work is done by garages or repairmen, who will charge an hourly rate relative to the standard of living here. or something.

Ergo, if a repair costs $1000 for a car worth $1000 it's not worth it, if that same repair costs just $100 it is.
Sorry, i'm struggling to follow what you're asking here.

Whether you style in stylesheets or by some other means (CSS-in-JS?) is an implementation choice rather than something that affects the fundamental pattern. If your components are truly portable, you're already doing things the way I suggest. If they inherit things like fonts and colors from their parent via the cascade rather than via explicit properties, then you don't have truly portable components - their appearance will change when you move them around.

Roughly anywhere between 5 and 25 micrograms. There's a very thin line between "i'm feeling good and i can get work done" and "that nail in the wall sure looks interesting, lets investigate its origins" as you approach the upper bound of that.
>(The word "branding" feels odd to me. Probably not the word I would have chosen.)

Yes it does have that generic feel to it.
That's pretty interesting. Do we have any comparisons on the performance of the outputted code between each? Like do they all perform identically? Are there optimizations one may do that others do not or perhaps even the opposite like a shortcut that cuts down on code but makes it perform worse? Also what about memory performance?

It's been a while since I've used closure. I may look into this to do a comparison on my current open source project and see what difference, if any, it makes.
Is it actually less moving pieces? The sum seems about the same. Your statement seems like FUD.

The unix philosophy of focusing on a single problem and solving it well seems to do just fine. I don't see why baking in featuress that the vast majority of users will never need is a good investment. If anything, it seems like it will only increase the complexity of postgresql. The protocol is well documented and open. Libpq provides all the functionality necessary. Why not bake the higher order logic into a discrete component?
"It's the law and you can leave" is, unfortunately, not
that argument.

I agree this argument comes down to arguing an is implies an ought, which is usually invalid and is certainly invalid when the ought is the thing under discussion.

But your gross exaggeration intended to refute it does not work as a useful counterargument. You assert it is directly comparable, I explained why I believe it isn't. You could have guessed people would not consider them directly comparable and the net result is that your counterargument is not convincing. Maybe after further discussion you could convince others they are comparable, but that's an unnecessary distraction.

Well they'd have to be pretty stupid to put it in writing, given that it was against the rules.

It seems to me a shame that people lower down the chain, who didn't stand to personally profit from the manipulation are going to be the only ones to take the fall for this. The suggestion that the rate fixer acted independently to manipulate the rates, even though he will have known that he risked prosecution as a result, just isn't credible to me.

It's obvious that general banks + BoE colluded to fix a rate that was meant to be based on the realities of lending, and that they did so either to make more money (in the case of the general banks) or to instill confidence in the banking system (in the case of BoE).

Whilst there may not be enough evidence to prosecute, it seems wishful thinking to say that the BoE didn't know that people might take their wishes and translate them into effectively illegal actions.

The point of Libor was that it was meant to be a reflection of bank's actual rates, so any pressure for lower rates inevitably is pressure to cook the books, and the BoE staff involved will have known that.
This is interoperability. At the very least this is a gray area.
America isn't the only country where slavery existed, and both slavery and animal welfare can be tackled in a region without having to change the entire world at the exact same moment.

If enough people in, for example, the US felt as strongly about not eating animals as they do/did about not having human slaves, they could have another "quaint" civil war (or maybe a political argument that could achieve the same thing without bloodshed) and get to a point where it would be illegal to eat animals just as it's illegal to have slaves.

(I'm neither American, nor a vegetarian, FWIW.)
Maybe that problem gets substantially easier to solve if we start educating people (and children) about what they're actually being fed, as well as imposing basic decency rules on how slaughterhouses and aviaries operate.

I don't buy or eat cheap chicken because I know how it is bred/produced and it's both miserable for the animal as well as for anyone who eats it. I prefer paying twice as much for chicken and having it less often, which is what I do.
I don't even want to imagine the kind of emotional baggage that comes with eating tortured, genetically modified and drugged animals. Why can't anyone see that this is just a step in the race to condition the masses to accept treating any living being the same way? Corporations don't give a shit about living beings except as means to make a profit, human or otherwise makes no difference.

And I don't get the excitement over fake meat, or how they managed to get the masses so convinced that they "need" meat to live a fulfilling life that the only choices left are animal concentration camps or synthetic bullshit.

Millions of people are just fine eating organic veggies, fruits and grains with maybe a bit of organic dairy thrown in. What makes you special?

Personally, I follow the "rule" of:

Would you mind dying right now? Or would you prefer to stay alive?
Sure, one might argue that once you're dead you don't mind anymore, but while being alive, you usually strongly prefer staying that way.

It's that simple.

It certainly is difficult to determine wheter or not something wants to live, but in the case of chickens we can be fairly sure, as they display somewhat intelligent behaviour, and actively avoid harm.
Agreed, it almost comes off as religious proselytizm.
Having a quick skim over that web page, yes it does look like they know what they are doing. However, they are still using SureSelect Whole Exome v4, when v6 has been available for quite some time now, and is so much better than v4. Their mean read depth is decent at 136X - that's about what we do. They quote a 31% pick up rate, where we have about 50%.

They talk about confirming variants using Sanger sequencing, but there is quite a bit of talk nowadays of stopping doing that, because NGS is becoming more reliable than Sanger. The problem with NGS is false positives, and the problem with Sanger is false negatives due to allelic dropout (the strand of DNA with the variant doesn't make it to the sequencer, so all you see is normal DNA). There is some concern that doing Sanger confirmation is rejecting more true positives than it is correcting false positives.

Our lab is both clinical and research. We don't do many research whole exomes any more - mostly doing whole genome instead.

Keynes was right on the fundamental analysis, but wrong on how much people appreciate the luxuries that the extra money from working three days more than you need to can buy (plus, something about the satisfaction that many people derive from working). Most people lower middle class and up could easily get by on 2/5 of their current salaries if they made the necessary adjustments to their lifestyles -- including moving to a low-cost probably non-urban area. But that's simply not an attractive proposition to most people.

Now, of course, there's a chicken-and-egg thing going on where two-day-jobs largely aren't on offer, but I'd argue that's largely because there just aren't that many takers. Especially in IT, especially if you're above-average successful, it's conceivable that you could find and negotiate a two day a week remote position -- but even among the population that probably could do that, it just doesn't seem a lot are, or are even trying.

Unique geography there; the city is in a bowl, but El Alto, its main commuter suburb, is on the high plain above the rim of the bowl. There is a single road linking them, which in rush hour is jammed with minibuses.

London also has its "Emirates Air Line", which is a pointless gimmick that doesn't serve a useful route.
> Ultimately the point is that meat is tasty.

If it was only about avoiding suffering/pain and not the dying, would you be okay with farming children for eating?

They will live happy lives pampered and cared for, running around in the backyard until you press a button and child drops dead. Takes 1 microsecond to die.

It's obviously absurd, but you're making that decision with the animals you eat all the time. A chicken (probably) is less self aware than a cow, but we do eat cows.

But how do you decide that another being is un-self-aware enough to be eaten?

Which takes me back to the absurd. If human meat was tasty (I read it isn't), would someone with downs syndrome be morally ok to eat? How about someone in a vegetative state?

If the sliding scale of self awareness is the deciding factor, we might as well eat less aware humans.

Well in banking, it's very important that there's trust in the system. Senior staff in UK financial institutions risk being barred from the industry if they're found to have broken rules and there's a reason that kind of penalty is in play.

Libor rates are quite serious as the outcome of trades depends on them. Each trade has a "winner" and a "loser" so if one side can choose the outcome they're essentially cheating the other side out of money.

The equivalent would be going to a casino where they can arbitrarily change the odds of winning to suit them, during the game.
> Mr Johnson objects, saying that this would mean breaking the rules for setting Libor, which required him to put in rates based only on the cost of borrowing cash.

There's a huge difference between "hey, this form is asking for my home phone number, I can't put cell phone number in!", and "I'm going to go to prison for years for this!". If Johnson had a clue that the behaviour being discussed would lead to prison time (and it has) he'd have made a very different objection.

> Also, it's been news to me that the Bank of England was actively pushing for the LIBOR rates to go down

>> Don't these two sentiments exclude each other?

Not the OP, but a meat eater. I think it's obvious for most people that they want to eat meat but they don't want to cause unnecessary suffering. Those two sentiments aren't just not mutually exclusive, they complement each other.

I know people who keep animals for their meat- chickens, ducks, goats, pigs and a cow or two. I've seen them really care for, and about their animals, and I couldn't miss the big, loving smiles on their faces when they're around them, particularly the younger ones. I'd call those smiles almost parental.

The same people have no compunction about killing those same animals, even the younger ones (that have the most tender flesh). I'd even go as far as to say that some part of the love they feel for those animals may actually come from knowing how they taste.

It might sound a bit crazy, but I think it's actually natural to love your food, rather than hate it and wish to hurt it.

I also think other animals have similar feelings. For instance:
