How do you make Apple maps work with kanji and romaji addresses at the same time? Half the time I'm driving somewhere, I have to painstakingly translate addresses before the search finds it (and even that's not 100%)
I am a fan of nuclear, though I do find some truth in the arguement that it's simply too expensive. Until there are GW scale batteries in operation (that aren't highly topography dependant) it's definitely worth gambling on some new investment in Nuclear, at least maintaining the current nuclear component of our power generation mix for the midterm.
France has dropped a shitton of nuclear waste in the oceans (preferably closer to neighboring countries' shores than her own) and ever since they've stopped doing so all temporary storage sites have been filling up more and more, with significant political problems to open up new permanent storage sites.

I'd hardly call that "solved problem".

> If you're operating a business as an individual (sole proprietor), you deduct expenses and only pay taxes on profits.

You can only (legally) deduct business expenses, not just all expenditure.

For example (where I work) you can deduct a cost for a uniform if it’s required for work. But you can’t deduct the cost of a new suit.
>But solved problem is strong wording for waste, which you have to keep safe for roughly 4 times the age of the oldest democratic country.

The problem with this argument is we're ignoring that cost of carbon because we don't physically bury it in the ground. We need to compare like for like here.

They're not necessarily "bad" at it; there's a good chance they just want to make sure that the least competent of their users doesn't make a password that they have trouble with later. They don't care that security-conscious people get frustrated with it.

So I guess that could also be "bad," but not incompetent "bad" or Michael Jackson "bad."
This is a false dichotomy. It's not nuclear OR renewables. It's (nuclear OR gas/oil/coal) AND renewables

Childcare etc is great, but that wasn’t top of my mind when I wrote this. I was thinking about general standard of living.

Normal wage structure here is very flat - there really aren’t orders or magnitude like you see in, say, the UK or the US. The vast majority of people live in much the same income bracket and that affords them very comfortable housing. (Locally there are valid complaints about a housing shortage etc, but this is nothing compared to, again, the UK. Grown up children aren’t financially forced to live with their parents etc)
Many people note their passwords down in eg. a text document. Not a great practice, but password management is a pain for most people. So when they do that, their editor might auto-capitalize the first character.

I suppose you could argue from a health perspective, you don’t want half arsed systems that lead to people getting cholera.
I agree with most of this, except for VAT

Lets not do that, We have enough hidden taxation in prices as is it, I am not a fan of this style of taxation as it allows for government to increase taxes (and prices) on consumers while never having to answer for those increases because the people take it out on companies and vendors not on the government where their anger belongs

VAT taxation is terrible and should always be opposed
This is a well-understood feature. Facebook does the same thing[0]. Quote:

Facebook actually accepts three forms of your password:

* Your original password.

* Your original password with the first letter capitalized. This is only for mobile devices, which sometimes capitalize the first character of a word.

* Your original password with the case reversed, for those with a caps lock key on.

It was primarily Buffett (he said he bought it) but I suspect one of the other two bought some and later sold it as well.
I'm very aware of that. But because my mind interpreted it as the incredibly well-known and ubiquitous "C Programming Language", and that my screen often has little hairs on it, it was a natural reaction. I actually do think the name is quite clever, but very prone to confusion.

Which one? Depending on your definition of democratic and country, and if you meant continuous or not, this is between a few hundred and few thousand years, quite a delta.
> Clarify the problem that Fukushima faced with regards to nuclear waste.

I don't feel it's honest to try to discuss the pros and cons of a technology by cherry picking the cons that we can strawman out of the equation while purposely ignoring real-world examples of major cons.

If anyone wants to argue in favour of nuclear power them they need to face the questions presented by Chernobyl, Fukushima, and others.

This sounds like a very good idea. (The thinness of the std future API paved the way for multiple async runtimes.

But the changing isn't user visible. To the user, the phone number is the string "(416) 555-1270". If you want to store it differently in your database go ahead. But to the user, the phone number has dashes.

In fact, on my phone, when I type in just the digits, my phone inserts the parens and dashes. Presumably, users consider this easier to read, and dare I say, more canonical.

So, many applications can't handle phone number input in the exact form they display it to the user.
Java programs are slow to start because of all the JVM overheads, but after that the performance is probably between 1x and 2x as slow as C (it depends a lot on the workload, of course). Java is definitely not a slow language in general, just has slow startup.

The slow startup time is the reason why Java is considered high performance in "enterprise software", but has a reputation of being slow among developers, especially non-Java developers. "Enterprise software" is usually long-running server-side programs, so you barely care about the startup time. But if you're using Java programs as part of your development workflow you'll tend to start and restart them repeatedly and the startup time can get really annoying. Java's GUI libraries also tend to be not very well optimized, which further contributes to people's impression of Java's performance.

In the case of this particular project, even though it's a terminal application, since it's a WM you'll likely start it once and leave it running for a pretty long time (as opposed to programs like "ls" which you run again and again), so this is in fact a good place to use Java.

You can also use GraalVM to compile Java programs ahead of time these days, and get much faster startup.
Tip for any EU citizens marrying a non EU citizens. For the EU citizen, make sure you execute your European right before your partner applies for residency. That way your partner does not have to learn the local language etc.

The reason for that is, that EU family law is pretty liberal. And EU law is "higher" then local law. But that only applies if you executed your European right.

To execute your European right, you must have lived for 3 month in another EU country. Or simply marry in an other EU country which is not your own country.

I'm writing this from experience. As this was the way my wife (Saudi) and I (Austrian) did it. I did first study in Denmark. Therefore executing my EU right.

Doesn't this mean that it all still gets taxed, but if nothing goes wrong, then it's paid after you die?
IMO nuclear power won't help us in the climate crisis. The inertia to change our technologies, behaviour... is already extremely large, with nuclear energy (which is very limited) there will be less incentive to change anything at all. Hence, we will just prolong the party and not make use of this tiny thread of hope.

I just spent about a year in Colombia and really enjoyed it. People there are more friendly than anywhere else I've been in the world. Money goes a lot further there too (if you have a foreign source of money). The thing that I couldn't get used to is in the cities, you could always be subjected to loud reggaeton blasting or other loud noises, even in residential areas, rich or poor. Weekdays, weekends, 8am or 1pm or midnight. It was too much for me. I stayed in different areas and couldn't avoid it. Sometimes I just need quiet and need to be in control of that. Also the multiple hour wait to go to the immigration office or phone company office or any bureaucracy was draining.
Why not simply leave it as the user input the value? Validation is one thing, but silently dropping information cannot possibly be helpful for the person that then has to call this number.

This doesn't particularly matter since there's a perfectly good fallback for people who do happen to have "exotic" passwords: just type the password in correctly. As long as your mapping is consistent, it's totally fine if the bit sequence you're hashing is linguistically nonsense, because you're never going to display that to the user.

What you don't normally want to do is normalize passwords before hashing and then only store the hash of the normalized string, because that's fragile to changes in your normalization algorithm, e.g. updating your Unicode data tables.
I believe Java web frameworks still come out on top in terms of performance speed.
Using letters in a phone number as a mnemonic, or just to flow better, is not a "rare case." You should revise your regex to accept letters, then whether you store them internally as letters or convert to the corresponding numbers is up to you.
> Their electricity cost during such times is literally zero

Not very surprising considering you earlier claimed they were off-grid.
No, that would have to be Scots. Especially compared to the region versions of English spoken in Northern England.

It should not be too surprising, given that Scots in large part derived from Northumbrian Old English, with various admixtures including from Scandinavia.

The versions of English spoken in Northern England also had a large input from Norse due to the Dane Law period, and that is part of what drove the change to modern English.

That said, in viewing un-dubbed (but subtitled) Dutch, Belgium, and Swedish TV programs, I have been surprised by the amount I get the gist of directly from the speech. Generally from the core Germanic portion of the languages. Belgium was also interesting due to the occasional mix of stock French phrases and words.

There were a non trivial quantity of 'English' words used, and usually for identical meaning, or a similar gloss.

There's no reason you can't put lots of SMRs at a central site. The main point is to fix the expense and construction time by churning them out in factories or shipyards.

Perhaps. Or, further proliferation of nuclear energy would have lead to more Chernobyl style accidents. Not to mention the weapons aspect. Nuclear is also expensive, it could never have significantly outcompeted coal in India and China anyway even if it had faced less resistance.

> I feel this country makes it a bit too hard for legal residents to come with work visa, meanwhile I know people that got it much faster via 'fictive' marriages

So true. I have been on a student visa for 8 years, and hence I am a non immigrant. I have the luxury of getting a working visa by a random lottery, with no regards to my skills as a PhD. And when I have that, I have the luxury of entering the 100 year long line for green card for Indian immigrants. They have such racist policies in immigration, but consider Asian Americans privileged.

I find it hilarious to hear politicians talk about immigrants creating jobs, while actually having the worst policies possible for the high skilled immigrants that actually create the said jobs.
Ahh I see what you mean, it would typically involve staying in a London hotel a few nights a week. Maybe traveling in on Monday mornings, and leaving on Friday afternoon.

I do have a British passport still, and I have a french residence permit, so in both directions it's fairly simple anyway (and the Eurostar is almost like taking a regular national train but it's a good 2-3 hours). Taking a flight is a bit more hassle and terrible for the environment (but cheaper).

About 20 years ago in London I worked with a guy who commuted from Greece(!) to London once a week. London salary, worked from home on Mondays, came in on Tuesday morning, budget London hotel on Wednesday and Thursday night, and back to a big house in Greece for the weekend.
Szilard proposed the possibility of a self-sustaining fission reaction in 1933. In a hypothetical universe where WWII never occurred and the Manhattan Project never existed, it seems likely that we would still have had nuclear power plants at some point in the twentieth century. And of course, bombs too.
It seems to me that the third case could easily be subsumed by first transforming the text by inserting a "change case" token in front of any character with a different case than the previous character. In such a representation the original text and the "caps-locked" text are indistinguishable.

Can the victims get their money back? Yes. If you have been the victim of an unregulated binary options scam, Bitcoin scams or ay scam at all then you are 100% eligible according to the law to recover what was stolen from you. With the right approach and evidence of the fraud you were a victim of, you can recover your money. Those behind the binary options scam want to sell the idea that what happened to you was an ‘unfortunate investment’ when in reality what happened to you was theft via elaborate means. If you were the victim or know a family member or friend who was a victim of binary options fraud, you should speak to a financial fraud recovery expert – it is not too late to recover your money. Simply send an email to Siliconwhitehatrecovery@gmail. com and begin your fund recovery process.

> Its so strange to think of rainwater collection as illegal. That is utterly dystopian.

The laws around water rights are surprisingly complex and have a long history.

In practice, no one is going to care or pursue a homeowner for collecting rainwater on their property for personal use. It’s one of those situations where the laws were written with other scenarios in mind (protecting water rights holders) but there hasn’t been a clarification or carve out for personal use exemptions because it’s not really an issue that comes up frequently or maybe at all.

This is the entire purpose of the "Standard Deduction" as that is viewed by the IRS as the "cost of living", and in their view it would be to complicated and allow for too much tax evasion if they allowed you to itemize every cost of living you had. Personally I think that is excused just to over tax people.

One should be able to deduct on an itemized schedule every grocery bill, every utility, even housing from their income taxes. Paying only taxes on that income they earned above and beyond the "Needs" of a person.
