My chrome bookmarks are one of the 3 pillars of my cloud identity, along with my gmail and my dropbox. You could just say my google account and my dropbox.

I have hundreds of bookmarks, covering dozens of categories of research and reading. One of the largest subcategories includes hundreds of references that I may or may not need for future projects including software (stackoverflow questions, tutorials, bug solutions, framework and API references, optimization articles, in-depth guide articles, and so on), woodworking, economic/governmental/civic/legal research, fitness, electrical engineering and general circuity/wiring, real estate, recipes, piano repair, audio production, and so on. These are all intended to be kept until needed, most likely indefinitely.

Then there's a category for more temporary things that I need in the moment and am unlikely to need again, including news/blog articles I haven't gotten around to reading yet, solutions for bugs that I need to fix, torrents I haven't gotten around to downloading, and collections of references for small, specific projects that I won't need again afterwards.

So basically I use Chrome bookmarks as my personal address book for "things on the vast internet which I wish to return to eventually."

For major things I use daily, like youtube or gmail or facebook, I don't bother bookmarking them-- for those I just use the address bar's semi-intelligent autosuggest....Ctrl+L to go to address bar, then I just type g and hit enter, or y and hit enter, or f, etc. The only website I need to type out beyond 2 letters is twitter/twitch.

I guess this may sound odd, but Chrome has begun to feel like a natural part of my mind. The bookmarks and my gmail are an extension of my memory. My interactions with the net are an extension of my thought processes. I have seen other people make similar remarks about their phones.
Of course I use bookmarks. Not for sites i visit regularly, the browser takes care of that, but for reference articles I'll need later.
I just use per-subject folders, nothing fancy.
WebHostFace – WordPress experience made into hosting
Hotels do complain about sex workers, because they're in some legal risk if they allow it to happen.

There's also a slightly increased risk of infected material from sex workers rather than the general population.

The core activity (people exchanging sex for money) probably doesn't need to be illegal (and isn't under English law). But the English law is a mess, and criminalises a bunch of stuff around this activity, while still leaving vulnerable people unprotected.
Thanks for the warm words :)

Affiliate is just working enough for me to pay the server bills (less than 100 USD). So here's the thing I'm noticing about Affiliate commissions - currently, the only way to get decent commissions is to have a lot of shelves that are popular. Its just 3 months of launch and due to lack of aggressive marketing of any kind, most of the shelves are just sitting there.

The ones that get popular are converting well. I still need to figure out if this can be made mainstream by chance.
moine,

imho ... i worked with both of them :)

simplified

* drupal is a really nice, secure and extensible portal-system which can be enhanced with plugins written in php

* python-django is a web-framework based on common design-patterns

whats better for you!? it depends what you want to achive, but i think for a startup - and a maximum of flexibility + scalability - i would prefere python-django.

why? as a "general" webframework its more flexible than the portal/plugin approach of drupal + i would prefer python over php.
FF7 is an excellent JRPG, but for a different (and more modern) take on JRPGs, I recommend the Persona series, especially 4 (Golden if possible) and the latest 5. Persona 3 is excellent as well and similar in style to 4 and 5, but not quite as polished.

Persona blends building relationships (which helps with your Persona customization and hence dungeons) along with doing various day-to-day tasks such as studying, getting a part-time job, going on dates, and even minor things like taking care of a houseplant all of which help improve various stats. Some activities aren't available if you don't have a certain rank in a stat.

They provide an interesting exploration into various challenges in the modern world, but without coming across as heavy-handed.

I think the only real problem is that Persona 5 holds your hand for a very long time as it introduces the system so it's not until around the end of the first boss area that all the options open up which is about 6 hours into what can be a 100 hour game.
I agree that it's not as big a deal as the host is making it out to be. People drink and have sex in hotels and AirBnB listings all the time. But it's worth pointing out that AirBnB requires that you declare the number of people using the apartment (because it affects pricing). The house rules might also state that only registered guests are allowed in, though it's hard to say without seeing the house rules for this specific listing.

Surely 'nothing' is an exaggeration. In the limit of the lens size going to zero, the brightness also goes to zero. (Ah, you're also scaling other things in your mind I guess, so then this is not true.)

If you keep the setup such that all the light that comes through the lens will get to the sensor, and keep the sensor the same size, a larger lens would mean a higher brightness, right? Maybe in practice you're limited by other factors, but 'nothing' can't be right. Especially when we're talking about theoretical limits.

Edit: I think what you're saying is that the lens doesn't matter for the brightness if you scale the focal length and sensor size in such a way that the brightness stays the same. Which is obviously true, but if you leave out the last part, it isn't.
The hotel management doesn't give a flying fuck about what the cleaning staff laughs about; as long as the customers don't disturb other customers and the room isn't an expensive mess (think broken beds and chairs), the customers get served and rooms get cleaned afterwards.

Cleaning weird stuff is a regular thing in hotels and hostels; and condoms aren't even weird, they'd be probably the most common stuff found in hotel room trashcans.

The physically disabled? Nervous silly college kids?

Cheaters? Low lifes? I've got news for you, they might visit the brothels, but they live out in the burbs near you :P They live near all of us.

Perhaps I'm just jaded/acclimatised from having worked in the suburb of Fyshwick in Canberra (where operating a brothel/in-home prostitution is quite common), knew there were prostitutes regularly working out of hotels/their own houses, and I'm pretty sure there's probably a couple of brothels around where I live.

Honestly, I can't say I keep track of them...I can't say they're even on my mental radar...

Don't misunderstand me, i know there are a significant number of people who wouldn't want to raise children in such an environment. But it doesn't bother me, nor the other families living here, and the general property prices around here suggest it doesn't sufficiently bother most of the people who live here :\

But I also knew prostitutes were working frequently out of suburban homes and hotels, so i'm a bit "you're not actually that far from prostitutes..." to all my suburban friends.

But I yes the biggest impact javascript will have on mankind is that noone will ever be bothered to create a good foundation for cross platform applications.

The desktop app is absolutely paramount for Spotify to stay relevant. Not sure if I've seen or heard of anyone using it in the browser (not that that is relevant, but I'd stop using it the very second I can't use it as a standalone app).
Does the prostitute use the hotel room as a work room and invite several guests throughout the night, or is she taken along by (a) "normal" guest(s) who rented the room and bought her services for a night? That makes quite a difference.
You will get some duplicates of Kevin Bacon's homepage but should be fine otherwise.
What is this problem in the Javascript landscape to keep forcing developers to do things differently, with the penalty of your app not working anymore if you don't comply?

I mean, creating a new type of brush for painters is ok, but I don't see the need for forcing them to redo their old paintings with the new type of brush in order to keep them visible..

IMHO Coffeescript and some other to Javascript transpilers are still a much better language than the entire Babel ES5/ES6/ES7 thing. But for some reason my free choice here is in jeopardy. The community apparently has chosen for Babel and are now happily nihilating things that are not compatible with that.

In my opinion this is not only irresponsible, but very arrogant as well.

Although I do understand and can write higher order components, I still write and use small mixins in projects because it works for me. I also use createClass because I enjoy the autobinding and don't like the possibility to forget calling super.

Now I need to explain my superiors why this warning is shown in the console, making me look stupid using deprecated stuff. And I need to convince them why I need to spend weeks rewriting large parts of the codebase because the community thinks the way I write is stupid. Or I can of course stick to the current React version and wait until one of the dependencies breaks.

It would be really great if library upgrades very, very rarely break things. Imagine if all the authors of the 60+ npm libs I use in my apps are starting to break things this way, for me there is no intellectual excuse to justify that.
Thats pretty damn legit.
Materials science is buzzing in this respect from nanoscale to microstructural level but ML cannot predict the existence and, in case, the stability of the novel items you find. It is more a targeted, extrapolated attempt (because of some exact properties we wish to improve for targeted applications) than magic 8 ball.
Your comment adds nothing new to the frequent and tired war (native vs electron). I get it, you prefer Vim and Sublime (I find this quite funny because I can only suppose critics attacked Sublime Text with the same arguments you use now)

Either way, Atom/VSCode have developed a large following which encompasses lots of talented and smart people. They both cannot be completely summed up with the description "slow and clunky." They are absolutely not perfect, but if you really cannot see any of the many reasons people use them, you're being left behind and I strongly suggest you refrain from commenting.

That would be yet another reason why regulations around hotels exist. A proper hotel will know how to deal with that stuff safely for both its employees and future guests.

BTW. I wonder what's the chance of getting infected when cleaning up used condoms after someone who's infected?

You wouldn't believe what I sometimes saw in the toilets when I worked as a bartender. I also know some hotel workers, and I can tell you that picking up condoms under the bed is a regular occurence. The really nasty things are when the guests are more into... sexual fetishes involving fecal matter.

The quantity of the cleanup; the increased risk of infected product; the increased risk of complaints from neighbours; the increased legal risk of running a brothel; etc.

In this specific case it's not illegal for a woman to sell sex; it's not illegal for a woman to sell sex from a brothel; it is illegal to keep a brothel; or to let a property be used as a brothel.

It's even legal to sell sex for money in a brothel, so long as you're not the one operating it.

> It is not illegal to sell sex at a brothel provided the sex worker is not involved in management or control of the brothel. A house occupied by one woman and used by her alone for prostitution, is not a brothel (Gorman v Standen, Palace Clarke v Standen (1964) 48 Cr App R 30).

1. Scotland's economy would actually be ranked 4th (only slightly smaller than Alberta) if it were a province in Canada. So it definitely wouldn't be a "have not" province.

2. I'd argue that Scotland joining Canada would present a stronger argument for Quebec remaining rather than leaving.

3. See (1)

4. This is an interesting question but between Brexit and losing Scotland I don't think they'd be in a very strong position to dictate much. Further, I don't think they'd want to antagonize Scotland (and by extension both the EU and Canada). After all, they can't trade exclusively with the Americans (who are becoming increasingly protectionist).

5. Also an interesting question - I have no idea about this.

6. The US Postal Service has different rates for "Continental USA" and non-contintental shipments. Besides - it will probably still cost far less offering services in Scotland than some of Canada's remote northern communities.

7. It's not clear to me why the distance would matter from an economic perspective. I also can't think of any good reason why the EU would not welcome Canada. Especially if it would give them better access to the US market.

>what does Canada get out of all this anyways?

Canada would get back door access to the worlds 2nd largest economy. Furthermore, if NAFTA remains in place, Canada would become the "gateway" for European companies accessing the USA (and vice versa).

Being at the geographic, economic and social intersection of the worlds two largest economies would have enormous benefits.
Bookmarks are where links go to die. So yes I do "use" bookmarks, but never revisit them. What I instead do often is either keep the tabs open or, save them as notes in a note taking app. I feel that the note taking app makes it easier to organize stuff into "projects" as that how I usually work.
I think you're confusing dialect with language here. Scots and Scottish English are distinct from one another. The latter does borrow some from the former which leads to confusion. Scots is a language, historically equivalent and closely related to English but still distinct.

It's a stretch to argue that "many modern English speakers derive from Scots root". At this point in history, most Scots speak Scottish English with some borrowing from a Scots root -- not the other way around. This is evident in the fact that the vast majority of a modern Scottish person's vocabulary is from mainline English and intelligible by someone from London. That doesn't happen by Scots borrowing vocabulary from English -- it happens from English absorbing vocabulary from Scots.

This is the situation for the vast majority of Scottish people. Coming across those who don't fit into the English-with-Scots-influence only reinforces this. Doric is arguably a descendant of mainline Scots which has converged on English, rather than the other way around, and means it's sometimes difficult to parse even for other Scots. Quite a lot of the Borders also speak a dialect which derives from Scots which has converged on English, and is difficult for other Scots to parse. They sound very similar to each other to someone who speaks neither, but are actually quite distinct -- mistaking someone from Selkirk for an Aberdonian will cause offence!

The Wikipedia has a pretty good article on Modern Scots, though I think it overstates the pervasiveness of modern Scots: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Scots
It's also worth noting that most speakers of Modern Scots also speak Scottish English, and code-switching takes place frequently and fluidly.

Gaelic is spoken by ~57,500 people in Scotland. Some of them have English as a second language, having been raised with Gaelic as the language of the home. In some cases this does show their English usage. One common tell is slightly unusual phrasing -- one typical and quite common usage is "You will be having tea?" rather than the more common "Will you be having tea?" Even then, they're still speaking a variety Scottish English and not Scots.

tl;dr: Every Scottish person speaks at least one of the dialects of Scottish English. Some also speak a dialect of Modern Scots. An even smaller number speak Gaelic.

Sources: Highlander born and raised, living in Aberdeen for >10 years. One parent is a Gael whose second language is English, the other parent is from the Borders whose first language is that variety of Modern Scots. Native speaker of Scottish Standard English, with a little time spent studying linguistics and an interest in the subject.

Yes, that seems like the most reasonable objection, as if it's then used by multiple other guests then it's effectively subletting and (presumably) not what the owner agreed to.

No and it worries me. I have a great memory normally, I speak several languages and computer languages. I was raised in the era before search engines when bookmarks were important.

But these days it worries me to say that I just visit the same three websites over and over. Aggregation websites with links and content.

Sometimes I find myself staring at the url bar not being able to think of anything to do because I've visited my three websites already.

Of course besides those three aggregators there are sites like google and stackexchange that I visit indirectly. And any blogs, forum and such that I might find through google.
