It won't and it shouldn't. The French will never, ever agree to anything that officially places their language on a lower level. They might accept de-facto lingua franca status for English, but they'll never sign anything that mandates it or recognises it. Discussing language is a recipe for pointless strife; the next step really should be taxation standards.

This said, the market is adjusting on its own. EU customers are voting with their wallets, and the more they move around, the more English-speaking cross-border businesses flourish.

About the AirBNB thing--it's pretty context dependant. If you are both single and working for a small startup and you did it voluntarily, I think most Most Americans under 40 wouldn't find it too weird.

If you're working for a large company, or your startup made you share, I think most of us would think it's strange.

If you're in relationships, I don't know very many people who would be fine with their spouse/SO doing it.

Do you have any evidence?

Show me the pressure society has placed on rape victims that come forward.

Show me the bias of the courts - Accusations without evidence are treated much more seriously than they would be for other crimes.

Show me the corporations who protect the normal man. When I was being bullied by my female boss I would have loved a corporate culture on my side.

Yes. Because the average woman will not report you for minor sexual harassment.

Not because of society, our corporate culture, or our justice system.

You are right, cannot generalize. But as it's not a common subject in NL (we usually hear about things that actually happened like the Judo thing); I would find it horrible to have to be careful with everything I do because people might feel 'uncomfortable' (like you I do not like this word; I think uncomfortable is an indigestion type of thing). But this is not at all to belittle people who are generally threatened as yes, that happens, but 'we' (in NL) (and in UK I see it as well) do not have that feeling generally and that's better than this 'let's not go for a drink because I might end up fired'. It widens the gender gap considerably as well as you cannot treat others like equals. You would have that drink with a male colleague, alone etc.

I went (as a white guy) to a mostly muslim highschool in Utrecht (Kanaleneiland in the 80s) and besides guns, knives and streets fights, this feeling wasn't there either. But real (in the much more than uncomfortable range) things ofcourse happened, it just didn't leave this kind paranoia behind. If paranoia at all.
It was actually 63 substances allowed by the EU, I just found out now while re-reading the article.

Unfortunately the article and documentary are both in Swedish. [1]

About the yeast, I'm a layman so I don't know what industrial yeast is but this was the term used by the journalist.

The report showed that a company dedicated to producing and selling flavored yeasts were marketing specific yeasts with flavors. And these flavors then turned up in the liqour store on the wine where the yeast was used. So the yeast was used as direct flavoring.

My point is that it's processed wine and this isn't clear to the consumer. Maybe it should have been when we suddenly were flooded with so many different types of cheap wines but I was too young at that time.

Before the 60s wine was not as available as it is today in sweden, or as cheap.

So clearly processing wine has become a way to make more money and that's when I get concerned.

But as you say, drink what you want. I've made the choice to stop drinking processed wine. And I'll gladly await the EU decision on whether or not wine distributors will have to declare contents.

> Now, bad, vindictive, extortionists, etc., will not need you to take them out for drinks or have a 1:1 to get their way.

This is the key. It is so foreign to me the idea that I would be afraid to be alone in a room with a woman. In the rare case that someone is actually that crazy and malicious, they will fabricate a private meeting entirely if need be, and as was said before, the accusation can be enough to damage a career. How is it even possible to avoid brief periods of private communication with the opposite sex all day every day?
> But then again, I can't shake the feeling that this is more about fun than really being close. I remember having close friends in high school and at the university. We spent many hours a day together for several years. Can't fake that, and I doubt anything like that will be born through Snapchat or similar tools.

I've got a whole bunch of friends whom I know mainly from online interaction. Surely that's a new class of friendship, which is useful?

Look in this thread for my link to the documentary but it's in Swedish so it might not do any good. Also probably geo blocked.

But I want to reply by saying that the evidence was provided mostly by one of the 10 wine distributors that the journalists requested the content declaration from. They asked the 10 largest distributors sold in Swedish alcohol stores and one replied.

Through that information they were able to track down the company that sells the flavored yeast and make the connection from the flavors listed in their marketing all the way to the actual wine on the shelf in the store.

The other distributors refused multiple times to give out any information and some said they would gladly await the EU regulations about content declaration that are in the works, and would follow them, but still refused to say anything about the content.

Regarding the linked article, I was alarmed after reading reading it in its entirety.

The portrayal of incompetence and worse at the nexus of the Trump administration is horrifying, but entirely believable, and even predictable at this point.

It also seems fairly plausible to me that the US military might have ultimately attacked Syria even though it knew Syria had not actually used chemical weapons in their attack. That wouldn't be unprecedented.

However, it didn't seem at all plausible to me that such knowledge, if it could be substantiated/corroborated, wouldn't be a major, stop-the-presses, huge-font-headline story in most of the many newspapers we still do have that do real journalism (e.g., the Washington Post, New York Times, or many many others).

It's pretty hard to believe that such news wouldn't get out, regardless of social dynamics. Not knowing much about it beyond the articles (and horrific photos of dead kids) I'd seen in the papers, I googled it a little more.

But there seems to be pretty compelling evidence that it was, in fact, a sarin gas attack perpetrated by Syria. I mean, the OPCW has issued a report concluding that[1].

So it strikes me that the content of the article by Seymour Hersh might not become public knowledge simply because it's one guy's anonymous sources vs. various entities that seem pretty credible, even if you entirely rejected the US government itself.

The special icosahedron functions can be expressed in many ways but perhaps the most elementary _explicit_ representation is as particular Gaussian hypergeometric functions. See this repo for example: https://github.com/ocfnash/icosahedral_quintic
The special functions are used here: https://github.com/ocfnash/icosahedral_quintic/blob/master/q...

Geometrically these functions locally invert the (branched) covering represented by the diagram at the top of this page: http://olivernash.org/2012/02/05/on-kleins-icosahedral-solut...

Your conclusion sounds completely absurd, but I agree with you. In fact, even walking around in groups of 3 is dangerous if you keep talking because what you said might be interpreted as offensive and all 3 people would hear it.

I guess I don't understand what you would propose as a solution...

Current situation is obviously not working.

Right now the following is happening:

1) Ladies get harassed by those with more power because it's a way to get dates. They could potentially lose their job/opportunity if they disagree to go on a date. This leads to 2.

2) Men get false accusations because women do not currently have to provide proof for low rank employee harassment cases.

3) Culture is changing in such a way that more and more things are considered offensive to say.

4) People are choosing to have fewer 1-on-1 (or at all) interactions with coworkers because of these issues. It's unfair to discriminate against just some coworkers because you might suspect they will be trouble. As a result, you might be forced to not have 1-on-1s. Might be forced to give up all non-strictly-work-related conversations with everyone at work.

At my current work, all of us are now walking as a group to lunch in silence. It is extremely awkward but it seems like this is the only possible outcome of such a system.

I guess my own current solution is to leave US/Bay Area for basically any other country. I rather not deal with these dangers since I want to have friends at work and any non-work related conversation might be considered offensive by someone in a group of 20 or so people.

Yes, and they were actually controller circuits for CPU voltage regulators.

There is also a market for recycled and semi-properly labeled chips, for example selling low precision grade analog chips as a higher grade or chips tested for the usual 0-70°C operating temperature range as rated for military/aerospace range -55-125°C.

This is harder to catch with QA. A few years ago there was an investigation in the US where they found some examples of such chips in military equipment and also proved counterfeiting beyond any doubt by ordering military grade parts which have never been offered by the manufacturer in military grade - the vendor simply relabeled them.
Dropbox user since 2010 here. Although I haven't 'thoroughly' compared Dropbox to other cloud based storage providers, the reason I've stuck with Dropbox this long is:

1. Backups all the photos I take with my iPhone automatically.

2. Service integration (E.g. Slack, 1Password, Alfred prefs).

3. Paper is pretty nice, I've been using it lately.

4. User interface is nice and clean.

5. Photo album creation/sharing is nice, but they are removing that feature on the 17th.

6. Screenshot sharing is nice.

7. Enjoyable & clean interface.

Having said that, I have noticed their drift to more enterprise based offerings. Their pricing is a bit steep as well. The only other two providers I've considered are iCloud and Google Drive. I'm not opposed to switching as long as those primary features are matched in another service. I'd also like to compare bandwidth, price per GB, security/privacy in other services.
Anyways, just my two cents :)
Yes, most but not all, Scotland has 4 year first degrees for courses that would be 3 years in England and Wales (I don't know about NI).

Thanks, I do know what yeasts are.
My point is that (most probably due to the very small quantity of wine we produced) we never added any yeast to the grapes. I.e. fermentation was catalyzed by kloeckera-apiculata [1] which is normally found in nature (small deposits on the grapes, etc.).

The OP seems to imply that different yeasts are prominent in industrial-size wine production (again, this may very well be the case: as I mentioned I have been proven wrong about industrial winemaking at least once in the past) so I would like to learn more about that, and I would be even more interested in understanding how different countries go at it.

Being lazy is a good personality trait to have if you are a developer, as long as you channel your laziness to be more efficient and get more done in less time. This frees up time you can spend thinking, relaxing, or reading/learning about stuff not directly related to the immediate task at hand. Over the long term you will learn more, stress less, produce fewer bugs, etc.

The people I value the most as co-workers, who have the most diverse skillset, and who are able to tackle the most complex problems, are exactly the people who are the least 'busy', who spend the least amount talking, typing, going to meetings, don't complaining how busy they are, how many hours they've worked, etc.
