I'm not sure there's any "court ruling" of that sort. The only applicable case would be Wightman, which just confirms that revocation must be and “unequivocal and unconditional decision” on accordance with a country's “own national constitutional requirements”.

You may be thinking of the Advocate General's initial opinion, which accepted that unilateral revocation would be possible only if it did not involve an "abusive practice", under which the idea of revocation followed be immediate re-notification might be considered "abusive". However, no reference to this appears in the final judgement of the CJEU.
Sadly, that's not practically possible.

Yes, you can use multiple processes to mitigate some of the problems, but you will create other problems (for example: you now have to serialize all the objects through a message pipeline, which is expensive, or you have to use shared memory, which also requires copy operations, unless you want to write your entire code in a low-level kind of way but in that case, you might as well use a different language like C). In an existing system, moving everything to a different process can be a cumbersome experience.

What you really want is multicore support with a garbage collector that is concurrent and a runtime that doesn't have a global lock. Sadly, few environments support this. Erlang comes to mind, but also doesn't support structural sharing. Ocaml is working on multicore support [1]. GoLang, Haskell and Java seem your best choice for GC+multicore.

True. A petition is clearly less worth than a referendum. I think the UK should just leave, consolidate the result, and re-join if they wish to do so.

Sure, they would have to give up a lot of privileges, but these would be scrapped anyway and are mostly counter to the idea of a union.

I am not from the UK and I would have voted for staying in the union. Even if the EU is a undemocratic, bureaucratic moloch that really needs a lot of constructive criticism to improve.

But having people actually want to be part of a union is much more important than any technicalities involving trade, foreign relations and policies.

The lack of respect for the position of Brexiteers had its own effect, no matter how stupid you think their decision is.
The trouble with your first point is that UK democracy feels like this:

* Vote winner — your fault, don’t get to complain

* Vote loser/2nd party — you lost, suck it up, don’t get to complain

* Vote 3rd party/spoiled ballot — you wasted your vote, don’t get to complain

* Didn’t vote — you must be OK with any outcome, don’t get to complain

* Found new party — how interesting, let’s invite you on TV even if you got 249 votes total (Lord Buckethead), but anyone who voted for you still threw away their vote

* Left country — who cares, certainly not the council who is supposed to send you a postal vote (happened to a friend of mine in the EU referendum, would’ve voted remain)
The deal is the only one possible with her red lines. She should have reached agreement on the red lines before starting the negotiation. She shouldn't have called Article 50 before getting an agreement across the parties. ~50% of the country voted to stay in and ~50% to stay out, so compromise is required. One solution would have been to have a followup referendum to ask the public what kind of Brexit they wanted - setting out the real options with their advantages and disadvantages.
I would also be interested in helping with that kind of research.

There is a software/framework/library named OpenFisca[1] that helps you turn law (for taxes) in software. They modeled some countries like Senegal, Tunisia or France. I know that they also use it to build easy to use web interfaces or to create visualization and better understand how a tax applies to a population.
You can take a look at their documentation[2] too.

> There is a court ruling that states that invoking Article 50 repeatedly can be seen as an illegal abuse of the rule to exert undue pressure on the EU

Citation needed. I have read the primary ruling on this[1], and I don't recall anything of the sort.

As the Court notes:

> Although, during the drafting of [Article 50 TEU], amendments had been proposed [...] to avoid the risk of abuse during the withdrawal procedure [...], those amendments were all rejected on the ground, expressly set out in the comments on the draft, that the voluntary and unilateral nature of the withdrawal decision should be ensured.

Best technology choice for a Blog with optionally paid Posts
I am currently conceptualizing on a sort of educational portal for Data Engineering. The idea is to have a site with a blog where I share tips, tricks, trends, insights etc. on the topic.

Then, in a section called "Projects" I plan to give deep insights about specific projects from being planned over implemented up to evaluated. This can be one large post or a series of a few posts.

For more complicated and insightful projects I might want to charge a few bucks after the initial content is well received.

So, I am looking at some educational templates on Wordpress (like https://educationwp.thimpress.com/ or Jevelin Multi-Purpose Premium Responsive WordPress Theme Preview - ThemeForest) but obviously, I don't want to commit to some kind of technology/template and find out later, that it wasn't the right choice. Maybe someone already has experience with this kind of concept.

My main questions here would be:

The Demos don't show what happens after a user has purchased. Do you customize it in a way that they might get access to certain pages after the purchase?
How customizable are Wordpress pages really? I kind of fear to get locked into an array of restrictions by using it, not being able to customize certain, even minor, aspects. For example, the templates call those buyable entities "courses" whereas I'd need them to be "projects". How hard would that be to change?
Some Demos are really slow. Should I not consider them at all or will it usually be better "in production" without the demo overhead?

Or maybe you'd suggest better options than Wordpress for my kind of venture? I am open for everything as long as it allows for as quick a setup as the Wordpress thing (my background is developer) and is not much more expensive dollar-wise than such a template (they seem to be up to 60$).

I also found Add-ons and Themes - LifterLMS here on the forum which looks good but is completely overpriced as I am totally at the beginning of the project.
> You don't get to keep having do overs

One could say the same about May's repeated requests for votes in parliament on her "deal". It was rejected, we need a better solution.

I voted remain but I'd rather crash out with no deal on the 29th than go through this endless uncertainty ad nauseum.
I wish this is true, but I don't think it is. In my country we had incompetent and corrupted left-wing government for 13 years. Now we have corrupted and incompetent far right extremists. And voting is mandatory here.
The AUM of CLO CEFs are minuscule vs overall CLO market. The two highlighted in that article's graph have a combined AUM of less than $600mm while the overall CLO market has more than $600bn outstanding. CLOs are not being sold directly to retail and it's very misleading to bring up CEFs without mentioning the size of these funds.
I absolutely don't think an economic union (our citizens did not vote in a referendum to join a political union, that was forced on us) needs to impose such laws (environment, human rights) not regarding international trade between member states and third state policies. It should impose treaties regarding export and import between member states, and maybe provide a civil court.

Whatever the EU is, it's not an "economic union" for at least a decade. We don't want any of that cake, as you say - you forced that upon us, I was talking about that in my previous comment.

And no, our country doesn't have an option to leave. Germans bought key state corporations from the corrupt post-revolution government and they won't let us (the people) do it, on top of that it has been proved that the EU will try to take revenge by all means and not wanting to be in the EU means they will destroy you. So much for the "friendship among nations" goal - paid friendship is not friendship.

Speaking solely for myself: I can't get to London for the march on Saturday (I live in Scotland) and even if I could, I'm middle-aged, with dodgy knees and a bad foot. Signing the petition is therefore a proxy for more direct activism.

(I note it has passed 750,000 signatures in well under 24 hours.)

The inability to force a clear Leave manifesto is the root of the disaster. What "should" have happened is either a Leave PM, or the 2017 election should have been run on a clear Leave manifesto specifying a realistic deal to be sought against a Remain opposition.
Undergrad maths classes with 500 people? That must be one hell of a course. Either way, all undergrad classes I attended in Germany were based on some kind of textbook (usually (co-)authored by the lecturer, and occasionally self-published, i.e. as photocopies of a set of more or less neatly typewritten pages, with equations scrawled in by hand).
Lot of orphan statistics in that article. For example, there's been an 11 percent increase in cyber bullying between 2006 and 2016,but what was the percentage increase in how much time an average teen spends online? Bet it's bigger than 11 percent. Every other statistic is similarly without companion data.

There's also no concrete support for the central premise that big tech companies are to blame. One could just as easily make a case that the massive increase in time parents spend online instead of with their kids is entirely to blame.
The flaw in your reasoning is in "user generated content". Newspapers are not user generated, while lots of websites (like this one) are. That's why safe harbor conditions exist, allowing sites like these to have free and meaningful discussion, without the threat of massive fines or lawsuits because a single user may do something irresponsible.

As someone who has overcome incarceration, spent years behind bars reading every book I could get me hands on, realizing that despite all of my short-comings I could find a way to be a software developer. . . this comment reads as quite offensive; smacks of typical HN snobbery. I never finished my degree, neither did my roommate for that matter (hell, he worked in a pizza shop and a brewery for years). Yet, we both are gainfully employed (full-time remote work, full-stack react, GatsbyJS, ReactNative etc.), we both work on a startup that is profitable, we both have found a way to persevere despite the naysayers. To any coal miners reading this, do what makes you happy. If that is writing code and becoming a software engineer, the only person holding you back is yourself. I read a comment on here this morning that rang true, "I can do anything, I just can't do everything".

Hmm, I'd like to see future where most [high quality] goods are produced locally - thanks to robots and AI. That's why I'd like the country to stay independent and of course automation and IT/tech/knowledge-based export economy is the only way it'd work in the long term for such country.

For that we need our citizens to be as free in doing business as possible, and for the whole thing to be as easy as possible. The EU is directly influencing our economical growth and technological and societal progression in this way.

The article spends too much time saying what not to do and not enough time saying what to do instead. People treating p-values dichotomously are doing so because they think that's what they're supposed to be doing. So while it's amusing to rant as in this article, it should have devoted its efforts to a presentation of exactly how a paper should be written in this new age. I suppose there's plenty of opportunity for others to do that, but this seems high profile.

During work: I think it depends on your profession. If your job does not involve interacting other humans in any way, or you are all in the same room, then you do not need a phone to communicate.

Job hunting: This would be significantly harder without a personal phone, but regular trips to a recruitment agent's office could make it possible. I can certainly see that it would be a significant advantage to have a phone.

At home: Hugely depends on how far and wide your family have spread. If they are all within walking distance, then you don't need a phone. Sure it's more convenient, and sure, you'll spend a lot of time outside people's houses wondering if they're actually in, but that's how I grew up without a mobile phone. Interestingly, I would counter-argue (with myself) that you do need a phone if you are the only family member in a remote area, if only for your mental health.

Emergencies: Yes, sometimes you just need a phone.

So yes. A bit need.

The difference between the leave and remain in the referendum was 3.8%. It's hard to picture how small is this difference, but one way to frame it could be this:

If you voted for Brexit, and you were born on any day of the year between the 14th of January and the 31st of December, your vote is matched by a vote for remain, a will opposite to yours and equally deserving of consideration.
> If every vote in which the outcome was swayed with misdirection and untruth was invalidated, we’d have to give up on democracy completely.

I would say the opposite: unless you do that, you have already given up on democracy.

> I certainly feel I had sufficient information to make an informed choice.

So do 93% of both leavers and remainers. Trouble is, these two groups disagree about which statements are true: is the EU democratic? Which is responsible for employment rights? For the level of immigration from Africa and the Middle East? How expensive is it? What benefits does it provide?

It is necessarily the case that around half the UK voters believe total nonsense. I know which side I believe, but that doesn’t really help.

With enough data, nothing is anonymous.
I think it's important to recognize that the degree of precision required to achieve "authenticity" varies between cultures.

Italian dishes tend to be extremely precise in terms of what ingredients may be added, to the point where many people would disagree you're making an authentic Carbonara sauce if you add garlic to the sauce, or even use pancetta instead of guanciale.

On the other hand, a culture like the US usually only requires that dishes follow a rough template - a meatloaf is a meatloaf provided it's predominantly ground meat molded into a loaf shape and baked.
With art, everything is a crapshoot. The famous artists of the 20th century? Creativity and work meant less than who was in one's network. It is basically the same today.

This man is lucky enough to have some press, so if he ever decides to sell it he could probably get a decent price. It probably won't sell for more than art installations without him having displayed it unless he has contacts in industry.

He might find himself a niche buyer, though: Boeing, for example, or a number of aircraft hobbyists. Obviously, the company will probably pay more. Hobbyists aren't as likely to have "big money", like so many ordinary art buyers. This may very well limit his income from such things.

She's been told by the rules of Parliament that she can't have another vote on the same deal. That remains to be her plan.
But aren't there a large set of interdependent factors?

Like, if everyone knows that the wait staff gets paid $15/hour then wouldn't there be less pressure to tip, say, 20% on meals? If all wait staff received at least $40/hour then I'm sure that most people simply wouldn't tip.

And how would this change, to include tips as part of wages, help the "near-poverty cooks and dishwashers"? Are the businesses on the knife-edge of solvency that they simply can't afford to pay the back-end staff more? It seems more likely that the savings will go to the restaurant owners?

You mentioned socialized health care. Doesn't that also affect the labor costs? That is, the US government already pays more per capital on health care than just about every other country - then there are private health care plans on top of that blowing the costs sky-high. By switching to socialized health care, it should lower the overall healthcare costs, so make it cheaper to employ people ... unless of course the restaurants currently don't provide reasonable healthcare coverage to their employees.
