With a delay if you become intentionally unemployed (though in this case, I assume he wouldn't be considered to have become intentionally unemployed).

This simply isn't true, unfortunately.
> though sometimes there was a thin strip of East Berlin strictly speaking

There were also secret doors in the wall, and on several occasion people from the western part who ended up on this thin strip adjacent to the wall were "kidnapped" by the stasi to the east and later usually traded for eastern agents captured in the west.
Funny, I regularly see comments by homeless people in the UK on Reddit. There was a recent article there about a homeless guy dying after the council took his sleeping bag:

> The east/west cultural conflict was a thing in the 90s. But today, nobody cares anymore.

The recent rise of AfD has been fueled by the resentment of the former East [0]. The vote share of the AfD has strong correlations to the east-west divide. It might be worthwhile to understand the reasons behind this pattern.

Yeah, this is a really great Haskell feature, and it often feels like magic the first time you see it. It's key to a whole lot of useful Haskell idioms.

Well-known languages which do this include Haskell and Rust (where it's also useful). In Rust, you can write things like:

// Generate an appropriate default value for a type.
// Here, this will create an empty vector of String.
let my_vec: Vec<String> = Default::default();

// Parse JSON into the specified type.
let numbers: Vec<u32> = serde_json::from_str("[1, 2, 3]")?;

I think there may be ways to do something similar with C++ template metaprogramming and partial specialization, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the ML family supported something similar using "modules". (But I don't really understand ML modules, so don't quote me on that.)

It's a great feature, and I would love for more strongly-typed languages to support it.
That was like crack epidemic.

Well, in case of a rocket, there are two phenomenon resulting into thrust.

The first one is the action-reaction principle: fuel goes in one direction, rocket goes in the opposite one.

The second one is indeed the E=mc^2 equation: as the fuel burns, some of its mass (a negligible part, but still results in some decent amount of energy) is converted into energy and this energy can be used to propel the rocket. The rest of the mass is ejected, see first point.

So if you compare the mass of the rocket + fuel before the take-off and the mass of the rocket + burned fuel after the take-off, you will indeed see a delta, which comes from a partial conversion of mass into energy of the fuel during combustion.

Actually, as pointed out in an other comment, every reaction (or most of) leads to a decrease of the energy of the objects: an empty battery has less energy than a charged battery (yes I know I'm a genius for pointing that out). The difference of energy results, according to m = E/c², to a loss of mass. In the case of a battery, the delta is waaaay to small to be detected, but it exists.
Why is this story flagged? It somehow proves the author's point.
Not true for those that believe in the autism link. That sounds like a "hidden feature" to me. Also, the occasional vaccine that actually gets one sick.
> Western Germany started with the same handicap

It depends. Some counter-points:

- Western Germany had all (or at least nearly all) of Germany's supply of black coal, the energy source that powered nearly all of Germany back in the day. East Germany only had brown coal, which has a worse energy density and is more complicated to mine and use e.g. because of the water contained in it. Over the lifespan of the GDR, about 40% of all investments in industry went into the energy sector as they tried to make brown coal more efficient and build nuclear reactors.

- While the Western allies realized fairly early on that it makes more sense for them to integrate West Germany into their political and economical networks, East Germany had to pay huge amounts of reparations to the Soviets. Entire factories and hundreds of kilometers of rail tracks were disassembled and shipped to Russia. [1] That also took decades to recover from.

[1] While motivated by an understandable desire for a payback on the part of the Soviets (who suffered millions of casualties during the war), this was an incredibly stupid move for the Soviets: A lot of those reparations got lost to their "brother countries" through which stuff was shipped to the Soviet Union, and when machines managed to arrive in the Soviet Union, they often lacked qualified personnel to operate them. And, of course, it also reduced competitiveness of the GDR (and, therefore, of the Communist bloc as a whole).
Nice story. I was expecting some sort of steganography in the actual bits of the image. Really cool how the author was able to encode binary in the actual content of the painting rather than the pixels themselves.
It can work the other way too. How many people have had their savings wiped out starting s restaurant when they had no idea what they are doing, compared to people who started a McDonald’s or Subway and made out ok?

The only thing you can do is force publication of accurate numbers, and audit them. I have a pretty low view of people who with IQs over 95 that join pyramid schemes. They are throwing their friends and family under the bus in hopes they personally get rich. That is extremely immoral even if you are poor.

In the US, if you do this, at best your friends will think you are an idiot, at worst you are going to get cut off. I’ve seen both happen more than once.
Finally, someone mentions SMACSS.

I learned about it a few years ago, but whenever I saw blog posts they mostly mentioned OOCSS and BEM. Meanwhile, I was more focused on SMACSS and was wondering if it became obsolete or what happend, but I coulnd't spot why OOCSS or BEM should be any better.

I am quite happy with SMACSS, but as that probably doesn't mean much, as those rule sets become crucial when you are working on a long term code base with a large team. So I would argue that SMACSS is probably a little harder to learn and produces a little higher quality. But while large code bases should always aim for maximum quality, using something which requires a few extra steps to learn ins't the best thing to be introduced to a large team.
Thanks for the link (am Eastern European who grew up in communist Romania in the '80s). It's interesting that the East Germans propaganda songs were pretty similar to Romanian propaganda songs which used to glorify the Communist Party and especially the Ceausescu couple (the most famous propaganda song is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyOMDUyMlPE).
Because "the good old days" maybe? Seems to be a common sentiment among older generations everywhere.
Most people think "Pope" is a Catholic title too, but Discordians believe all people (not even just Discordians) are Popes, and the crossover means that members of the Church of the SubGenius often acknowledge such Popes too.

Anyway, Catholicism is a lot bigger than the Roman Catholic Church. You have other very explicitly Catholic churches such as the Eastern Orthodox Church, and you also have faiths like Anglicanism, which are a weird hybrid where most (Roman) Catholics would consider them protestant, but they refer to themselves internally as a "Holy Catholic church", they have Bishops too (but no Pope, their spiritual head is for historical reasons the Queen of England) and so on.
Western Germany got a lot of money from the US to rebuild. I guess you could give capitalism credit for that, but it certainly helped that the US didn't have more than 1000 cities destroyed like the Soviet Union had.

Measuring Re-Identification Risk in De-Identified Content
In everywhere but Scotland, the council has absolutely no duty to home you unless you are in "priority need" - you're a family with children, pregnant, homeless due to a disaster, or are severely (usually physically) disabled or at risk of domestic abuse.

Being homeless is plenty possible, especially for young men. And what about those who aren't of sound mind, anyway? Do they just not deserve a roof over their heads?

The unemployment system is horrifying, and you cannot access jobseekers' for up to a month if you quit a job of your own accord. Being self-employed, it's even more complicated as you don't pay the relevant taxes - meaning you have to go through an alternative system. If you can't afford a £150 fine to go see a doctor for a life-threatening condition, you can't afford to go without income for a month. I'm going to bet DPD have fines for quitting the job, too.
It reticulates splines
Maybe the 1980s Bronx was comparable in terms of deterioration but the "general cultural shift" definitely didn't affect any inner city of Western Europe in the ways which can be seen in the aforementioned videos there.

Quite the opposite: Yes, suburbs flourished, but the appalling differences between East and West prove it has nothing to do with suburbanization.

And the pictures of East German inner cities prove something else: That class differences still existed. Like only government-loyal members of society get to live in Pyongyang, all the Eastern German "white trash" would be found in those inner cities. People with connections had an easier time getting into new High-Rises being built at the city outskirts.

Since you live in Berlin, I suggest you take a daytrip to the villages around Berlin, or maybe down to the Lausitz (Cottbus, Hoyerswerda, Bautzen, etc.). You'll find plenty of people who care.

The GDR was an oppressive regime towards its critics, but if you managed to keep your head down, you could live a very stable life there. Upon starting work at 15, you had reasonable confidence that you could work at the same place until retirement if you wanted to. Until, of course, the reunification happened, and large parts of the East-German economy were flushed down the toilet for not many good reasons. Now you have a huge number of people who suddenly have to change jobs every few years to keep themselves afloat, and those (and their children!) are the ones voting for the AfD.

Oh, the team does. The team lead serves largely as tie breaker, and as the person to help bring everyone back on track if discussions go off on a tangent. But the team lead is not there (and frankly would not be able to) decide by fiat on something the team was not amenable to; that can't work.

And then they have to communicate that to the dev team, and sit with the dev team to come up with proper stories, which effectively saves little to no time (and leads to a game of telephone; is what the PO telling you -really- what the business needs or just what they heard the business tell them they wanted?). Or, be technical enough that they don't need to communicate it to the dev team in the first place but can just write the stories. I've yet to encounter one sufficiently technical

And as long as there is a large enough pool of desperate people willing to do any kind of job for virtually no pay this race to the bottom will continue.
