The issue is that the original comment is just a baseless assertion that Boeing is having issues due to identity politics, and not anything of substance. Not liking those sort of unsubstantiated politically motivated claims is not "political correctness".
Maybe well-known, but: Ctrl-C exits interactive mode and goes back to normal mode. Easier to reach than Esc and I usually find rebinding/aliasing keys to be too much of a hassle
Throwing out grave insults because someone on the internet doesn't like your idea is a pretty good tell of the sort of character he is, even if it was 4 years ago.
Adding to the list of reasons to dislike him, there's him trying to get a lawyer who interviewed him for the SEC fired from his new unrelated job.
None of your links details anything about how the perpetrators in those attacks were able to enter Israel due to being naturalized through marriage.
In addition, the article notes that several supported of the law (at least one who's in Knesset) claim that the invention is for Israel to maintain its "Jewish character".
IANAL (and in the EU) - I believe you're not allowed to republish/redistribute the modified copy of the book. That said, your software is still legal for an end user to use on any book they own.
Same thing here, if the modifications were happening on the server side and then sent to your browser that's probably not legal
I think presenting it like this is misleading since the definition of homelessness is different per country.
Breaking down the Swedish stats, of the reported 34000,
the source says:
"4 500 people were in acute homelessness, of which 280 were sleeping rough. 5 600 people received institutional care or lived in different forms of category housing. 13 900 people lived in long-term housing solutions (the secondary housing market), provided by the social services in the municipalities. 6 800 persons lived in short-term insecure housing solutions that they had organized themselves."
Unfortunately the original source isn't archived so I haven't checked the exact definitions used here.
For the US numbers, we have:
"On a single night in 2018, roughly 553,000 people were experiencing homelessness in the United States. About two-thirds (65%) were staying in sheltered locations—emergency shelters or transitional housing programs—and about one-third (35%) were in unsheltered locations such as on the street"
I'll assume you'll get similar discrepancies for all of the other countries.
If we think about the function of pain from an evolutionary perspective its basically to encourage, well, not doing whatever is causing you pain (e.g. touching sharp objects, standing close to a fire) or provide motivation to fight or flee (e.g. if I am being attacked by a bobcat).
Neither of these are applicable to plants, so there doesn't seem to be any evolutionary reason to evolve pain receptors.
Assuming that I did not misunderstand you, while fight or flee does not exist in plants in the same sense as animals they do react by producing chemicals/sap etc. that works as a defense. So it's more 'fight', but a chemical warfare at that.
Parliament votes on whoever the speaker nominates. If that person is tolerated (<50% of parliament votes against the nominee) they become prime minister.
If the vote fails the speaker gets to nominate someone else. After 4 failed such votes, an extra election is called.
Thanks for the clear answer. I think I like that system. Sometimes minority governments make more sense that slightly larger but more fractious coalitions. If I was trying to design a republican constitution for my own country I think I would include a similar provision.
I dont think this is necessarily due to 'cashless' as much as general computerization. Stuff like prices, article numbers and inventory are likely all digitized nowadays, so even if people could pay with cash I imagine they'd still be keeping closed.
Why isn't the local shop's systems autonomous - the should sync to the company central, sure, but they shouldn't need constant connection to lookup prices.
I think that this is the case, from the reporting it seems like it’s just their payment infrastructure that is affected. Likely they could handle cash transactions just fine. It’s just that the vast, vast majority of Swedish customers don’t use cash anymore, so it’s not worth it to keep the stores open until it’s fixed.
Going cashless is extremely common for customers in Sweden. They would get so few customers (everyone would just go to the next grocery store), and the aggravation it would cause from customers who haven't heard the news and can't pay probably just makes it not worth it to have them open. Take the loss, fix the issue, reopen all the stores when it's done.
