How would tables solve the issue they're talking about?

Borders can be applied to table cells independent of the content inside cells.

Gap decorations allow you to add borders between flex/grid items, but without the woes of dealing with table quirks and behavior.

Common use cases would include mimicking design patterns found in print layouts, particularly newspapers and menus, to help divide groups of items or info.

You're replying in good faith to someone who ignored the main point of GP (an empire actively disrupting a region) and just said "every place has been unstable" (without even taking century-level timescales into consideration).

> an empire actively disrupting a region

> century-level timescales

Doesn't sound very scientific or predictive. Is also ignorant of history. Ottoman empire lasted many centuries. So did Roman empire. Which crushed and oppressed and destabilized a lot of Europe. China famously had their "century of humiliation" which was "century-level timescale" of "empire actively disrupting a region".


You are right, but I felt morally compelled.

I disagree, people are just happy to see coca cola fail, which's fair enough.

The ad company that made this supermarket's piece capitalised on that, and now we have ... an ad on the front page, with people commenting on its storytelling.

Celebrating an advertisement video is absolutely bizarre.


If something people dedicated multiple years of their lives studying and proving seems trivial to you, you're either a genius or you didn't understand the problem.


There is a world of difference between the obvious and the trivial. The post you are replying to only implied it was obvious, the retort is unnecessary.


> Cantor's stuff can easily be trashed.

Only on hackernews.


.. because that is where you are allowed to challenge some biblical stories of the math without the fear of expulsion from the elite clubs.

Most of math history is stellar, studded with great works of geniuses, but some results were sanctified and prohibited for questioning due to various forces that were active during the times.

Application of regular logic such as comparison, mapping, listing, diagonals, uniqueness - all are the rules that were bred in the realms of finiteness and physical world. You can't use these things to prove some theories about things are not finite.


This isn't iconoclasm, it's ignorance.


I'm aware that I'm ignorant of many things, just like anyone else on this Earth. Some are less ignorant and some are more.

Could you be kind enough to explain the phrase "set of all integers" when the word all can not apply to an unbounded quantity? I think the word all is used loosely to extend it's meaning as used for finite sets, to a non-existent, unbounded set. For example, things such as all Americans, all particles in universe have a meaning because they have a boundary criterion. What is all integers?

I think one need to first define the realm of applicability or domain for the concepts such as comparison, 1-to-1 mapping, listing, diagonals, uniqueness, all etc.


I'd like to see that comparison tracking the number of devs and how much open source software each company uses.


Very few countries in Europe have that issue, and afaik no country in the americas.


The bundle size is, by definition, much smaller as it doesn't include the browser engine.


This benefits people and teams who prefer to build UIs with html/js/CSS.


Are you arguing that people who are against this law and its implementation in the UK are against it because they're addicted to porn?


Yes. There are legitimate reasons to dislike the law, its implementation, or its impact on privacy. But 99% of people dislike it simply because they are heavily addicted to porn. The fact there have been much more privacy invasive laws introduced in the UK over the last decade which face little widespread outrage is the tell.


I think it's rather that OSA actually visibly affects people in their day-to-day lives whereas other laws don't. I constantly hit age verification pages on Reddit and Twitter and I don't use either for porn. I'm fundamentally against giving Reddit or Twitter or a 3rd party processor my ID just to view content someone somewhere deemed potentially harmful to minors. At least Twitter is done on a post-by-post basis; on Reddit entire subreddits are gated behind age verification.


It's hard to keep this conversation in good faith if you're just gonna throw in some statistic you just made up.


It's very obviously a figure of speech and not intended as a statistic.


That's not the point I was trying to make. You believe that almost all people who have issue with the law do so because of porn addiction. You haven't shown any data, it's just your belief, from which you're informing and repeating your world view as fact.
