It was a top/root comment that's why I asked. I thought it does something special. Also worth a look: http://python-eve.org/

What is apistar supposed to be solving in this context?

BMW is sending me an SMS every month - how many cars do they think I need? I can't even call the number that sends the messages - it just says BMW.

I may not be the first to say this but he seems hasty and childish at times. Not to take away from his achievements but some things need not be said on public channels - especially when you have such a big following. He almost goes into mocking facebook publicly and I don't think that aligns well with the type of figure we imagine Musk to be.

Smart tactic since Facebook is on fire and Whatsapp is directly pulled into discussions concerning privacy and whatnot.

Curious if he can dish out some facts to backup that tweet or it's just a "convenient" time to shed some light over your new product which is basically another..Whatsapp

I cried in pain when I got to securing my app (uberauth, guardian etc). There's too much to grasp and I ended-up just copy pasting code in frustration.

Elixir & phoenix are fun though. I really like how much easier it is to test an elixir app (functional language).

Interested on implementing it myself for a project. I would really appreciate if you could share some numbers. How many donating (% from visitors), avg amount etc. Any stats would help. Thank you.

I don't know. Is it supposed to be saying anything? Mine's been quiet all time.

I have an extension to disable WebRTC to prevent leaks (uBlobk added that too), I have another one that claims it blocks mining, I have uBlock and Disconnect - all fighting for my privacy.

This is getting out of hand.

Horizontal and vertical centering - needs a height on the parent which is omitted from the example.

$249 lowest pricing package after you stretch out pass the free limitations.

I find it odd that I can't find any sort of videos about that product. Usually people review stuff like this on youtube.

How do you know they are acting with integrity without them being honest or open? It looks like a free ticket to do whatever they like and play the "trust us to be defending national interests" card whenever they see fit.

I find your arguments a bit shallow. I know extraordinary people who like to smoke. How can you say a smoker has a "lack of intelligence" and what makes you think people smoke from stress? I smoke from 16 to 35 and I never did it because of stress (yes I smoked when stressed too) - for me it was that calmness it gave. I could concentrate more than I can now as a non-smoker - I could go deeper and stay there for bigger amounts of time.

The "so you're saying" interview. Def. a good watch. Peterson handles it so good.

It was in 8 of November. Just checked.

It's not about that. I'm the CEO. I'm sure it's somewhat my mistake because they wouldn't risk lawsuits for shady tactics. Probably a 0.8px text in gray somewhere on that page saying I'll get charged yearly and not monthly.

2 months ago I signed up for a 30 day trial to search for people to hire and then 140 eu/mo if I decide to continue using it.

Of course I forgot to stop it (they were pretty quiet also) and they charged me 1400+ eu for a full year because...why not - no refunds (that's what their page says).

I know, I know...should have read the whole shebang. Lost 1400 euros for something I didn't really use. I was about to pay for a month and discontinue but now I feel robbed. I do websites myself and I write in `bold - caps - red` when I'm about to charge someone for a full year.

Shady tactics.

Sorry to hear of your condition and I wish you a full recovery. I don't want to sound arrogant either nor do I wish to take anything from you.

I gave it an extra thought and, for me, it may also be the system that's at fault. When he died they (the hospital) made me gather at least 5 liters of blood donated (friends, family etc) otherwise they won't help him. I also had to buy even the syringes and other super-basic stuff because "they were out". I probably lost my trust in the medical system we have here and I'm simply horrified at the idea of having to rely on it.

You are surely referring to the last moments of their lives and not the journey from finding out they're going to die until that moment you are talking about. There's a lot of adrenaline and other chemicals being released in such situations. I had a friend pass out 1 second before hitting a pillar with the car (her boyfriend had to pull the wheel and crash into a dog house). The brain finds ways to protect you from pain and it often shuts down in such cases when there's no room to contemplate. I think the subconscious kicks in/takes over.

I was talking about the long wait many have to go through from finding out...to their final breath. From denial to acceptance might be a long road that scares me and I'm not sure if every bit of information can be beneficial or detrimental.

I don't know...I see a silver line here. There are many situations where putting everything on the table might make the situation worse. Something like a negative placebo effect can occur here and, for patients that may still have a battle in them, the depression and fear resulted from knowing too many things might worsen things.

My father died 8 years ago and I remember that we all knew he had just a few weeks left in him. We didn't tell him and no doctor did either. He was still talking about how he can't wait to go fishing once he gets out of there. I think it was something nice to keep him from diving down in panic attacks and depression as I imagine I would knowing that my situation is that bad.

I'm not so brave and I don't know if I would like someone to tell if I'm about to die soon...maybe I would; this is hard to discuss from outside.

Reminds me of the million dollar homepage of 10 years ago: http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/

Wow! I can't believe that's an AI.

Well, I'm not talking about the people on the street. It was too short and too quick. At a longer trial the whole truth could have emerged and that was something they tried to avoid.

> People in large supported the capture and execution, no?

Yeah they did, with the information they had at that time - mainly the nation television which was also seized and controlled by this mafia that is still in power today.

You cannot kill people because it's a popular demand. I don't regret those days at all, I'm just saying - the general population was fouled into believing all sorts of crazy stuff that weren't true.

In short no, the people didn't ask for Ceausescu to be killed. It just "happened". After a longer trial he would have been killed probably...who knows.

> there was also not much protesting and rioting following it

There wasn't, the "terrorists" threat lasted even after they were executed. We were afraid to go on the streets during this time. People had other things to worry about.

No protests were made regarding the killings of the Ceausescu's but, in 1990, people started a new riot against the new "faces" that were trying to put themselves in power. It was called the mineriada: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_1990_Mineriad

This is what happened to those who tried to protest against the new government at that time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xNiGSE0ybQ

There's a big article (the only interview given by his son Nicu) in which he explains how everything took place and how the population were led to believe there's terrorists killing people: https://www.historia.ro/sectiune/general/articol/singurul-in...

> That is at least one country where they have learned to not piss off the people. In 1989 they rose up, caught and killed their corrupt dictator. All in the matter of days.

Sorry buddy but Ceausescu was not killed by the people. His trial was a disgrace, was rushed, staged and was brutal by any democratic standard. Ceausescu was killed by those that were already working under his direct command at that time (here's the main actor sitting next to Ceausescu which also became president a few weeks later: http://static3.evz.ro/image-original-605-388/cache/2016-10/c...).

The whole thing was merely a shift in power by cutting the head of the beast and re-growing a new one from the same body. During those days, all the "revolutionaries" that we saw on TV killing Ceausescu and torturing his children LIVE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNpca3Mh7as), formed a "mafia" group that would rule the country for the next decade; a period in which every industry was sold by these people.

> People came out to protest and within days decision was reversed.

That's more than a month of protests (18 Jan - 26 Feb). We eventually won but we left those protests knowing that this government will try to do its own ways sometimes later. What we are fighting here is the same party that was formed after the revolution in 1989.

In Romania we're losing 150 acres/day (or 60 ha) to illegal cutting done by some german and austrian corporations.

I doubt that. Any advanced civilization that is capable of interstellar travel would use highly efficient techniques to do their thing. You may say it's the gold or platinum but we just heard of the neutron stars that collided creating a lot of those materials in the process.

Why bother using humans to extract anything when there are other, more efficient, ways of harvesting? That's just "ancient aliens" conspiracy theories if you ask me.

Which only adds to the theory that we might be living in a simulated universe.
