As an EUian: Do it. It's worth it. It's once in a century opportunity and maybe the only viable path for Europe.

Honestly, I'm old enough to remember how it was before EU and I can't imagine going back too that.

This was about a programmer accidentally adding a debug print, or say an error page helpfully dumping environment, or logs from a third party tool, etc. Not about someone actually getting RCE just to print the environment, of course.

Well, I can't imagine myself in this situation. Under no circumstances I would use the expression "I see landscape and not the road" because well, I can only see the road. I can't imagine seeing something that I don't see. If I close my eyes and try to imagine a landscape (or a car, or an apple) I don't see anything. Asking me "what was the color of the apple that you imagined" is meaningless, because the apple had no color.

I don't claim I have aphantasia, but it's pretty obvious that I don't experience "visual imagination" the same way some other people do.

The problem with this logic is that it equally applies to someone who owns 999,900,000,000.

If someone is willing to spend money above some spendable threshold, then they will never become a trillionaire. Because they will start giving away sooner.

It never happened to me - I use a catch all and almost never got emails like this. Why would bots try to guess emails on random domains when there are billions of known emails to send spam to.

It is not history. I write code almost exclusively by hand, for example.

>Precisely 0 of your presidents were ever punished for any action against citizens of other countries

How many presidents were EVER punished for actions against citizens of other countries, unless other countries forced the president's country to do this (for example by winning a war)

>I think they fundamentally misunderstand what an apology is

Did they, or do you? The point of view presented in the blog post is: "If you wronged someone you ought to apologize. The fact that this person will not forgive you (it's too late for that) does not influence wherever you should or should not apologize"

Which, as someone who is definitely not into philosophy, kinda makes sense?

At least in metal music we usually doesn't assume the artist sings about themselves.

Fortunately most artists are neither fighting dragons nor worshiping satan.

I don't get it. Let's say you create a game.exe, a windows application with a single window. User double clicks on game.exe icon on their desktop, and the window opens. User double clicks the icon again, and the game window opens again. If the developer want to prevent two instances of game.exe running at once, they need to actively detect and prevent this behaviour.

Just like you can start vim several times you can start gvim several times and have a few windows. This is the default behavior, and if the developer wants to change this for some reason, they need to put in some effort.

Maybe macOS is special? I'm not familiar with this platform.

Well I use python daily for the past 10 years and I never did data science. Data science? Everyone knows python is the language of cyber security.

This does not seem to be related to the article. OP is about red moon and naked baby and clouds. It does not claim that anyone hated windows because of that.

Usually I wouldn't comment just to point out offtopic, but I think "instant bad thoughts every time windows is mentioned, no matter the context" is another psychological effect caused by Microsoft.

No way I pay $1/repo/month. No way I pay $1/repo/year. I still host and maintain my old code on GitHub, but any free tier pricing update and I jump ship immediately.

Do American people ever wonder "are we the baddies"? If this is an accurate description, I think everyone would agree that this is a bully behaviour. And arguably evil and opposite to the "free market" it champions officially.

In fact, is China or Russia involved in similar planet-scale military enforcement?
