> The Left still holds majority
This is factually incorrect.
Summing the votes of all parties that could be considered left (Green, S&D and The Left) you get 224 seats, which is about 31% of the European Union Parliament.

It is not, they diverged since decades now.
Still, even if this was the case, the programming styles are so different that there’s nothing to gain considering them as any more similar as any two other languages.
Ever tried Calibre?
“more relevant offers” now universally means “we’ll spy on you, so we can get more money from you!”
At least: I don’t see this choir of “but it’s antiscientific!!!” cries when Freud is discussed, but still there’s no evidence whatsoever for the tripartition of self which is at the very base of Freud’a theories.
The super-ego is no more scientific than synchronicities!
Stating that I voted for Trump (I didn’t) is likely to offend many people.
The breadth and vagueness of these CoCs is astonishing!
The then-go-somewhere-else argument also does not apply, since de-facto monopolists are also starting to apply similarly silly CoCs…
My question is: where do you draw the line?
Can someone own a 300 sq meters house? A castle? A golf course? A small island?
If not, where do you draw the line? Is a private villa acceptable? A private golf course? A hill? A small island?
Can I decide who enters my 220 square meters apartment?
As for every spiritual/faith decision you are free to think otherwise, but calling it a bias seems very ungenerous.
I am sorry but I don’t really get it.
A big citation needed here… I am not sure boots made from locally-sourced leather are less sustainable than boots made from synthetic fibers and petroleum derivates some place in South-East Asia.
I’ve been wearing the same leather boots for 4 winters now, a leather jacket is steadily approaching the 10 years marks.
More generally: sustainability problems can be mitigated or solved by buying stuff that lasts, see for instance /r/BuyItForLife
Is mushroom leather as durable?
The usual CoC violation: probably someone in the Core Team made a statement (outside the Rust community and not speaking officially) that does not align with the progressive political thinking.
You say that the larger number of men in tech with respect to women might be due to biological reasons? CoC violation, fire the enemy of the people!
You say you voted for Trump? CoC violation, fire the enemy of the people!
You say only biological women are actual women? CoC violation, fire the enemy of the people!
When there was a huge push to adopt CoCs I warned everyone I knew about the clear potential for abuse by the leftist (who also incidentally happen to be the ones to back CoCs). In particular a CoC should cover only actions performed in a community, no-one should be banned to contributing to a project because of what they write on Twitter, for instance!
You do not have the right to express it here, since it goes against the rule of this website.
I suggest you read them very carefully!
Moreover, the code is beautifully written, the project is useful and the rules of HN ask you not to dismiss project just the way you did.
Their write up seems to imply that the device wouldn’t charge if the battery is completely drained.
It happens sometimes in cheap devices in which the charging logic is managed in software, but it’s a terrible design decision.
If that’s the case, a better battery will mitigate the problem but the terrible design remains!
Wait, wait, wait… Are they saying that if the battery is too drained the device will not charge? It that’s the case, it’s a terrible design decision!
Also, isn’t the + shaped control a Nintendo patent?
This part hit on me
> Getting on the roof was illegal, of course, and required a bit of climbing walls. But who cared? Delivering an internet connection to our friends and other students was much more important
It’s not the point of the linked post, but it made me think about the value of friendship.
Nearly everything in life is transactional, even romantic relationships can be quite transactional, but these people were risking their lives climbing walls just to see their friends have Internet. And of course also for the intellectual challenge of providing Internet to the building!
Probably friendship is the purest human feeling there is.
