Also worth noting that the current president, the child of a dictator, is using his support to impeach Duterte’s daughter. He also said he wouldn’t support any action of the ICC and now is.

If this action was in isolation, it could be taken at face value, but with other manoeuvrings, it’s looking like Marco’s consolidating his grip on power.

The other point and kind of backing up what you’ve said, is that Fillipino’s I’ve talked to have commented that drug problems in their area disappeared but used to be pretty horrible.

I’m not one to defend crimes against human’s, but one cannot discount the level of criminality and the impact it was already having on people’s lives. Whether the tactics were fair or decent is one thing, but another is, did it work? Did it solve a serious problem the country was grappling with. You only have to look at Mexico to realise that if you don’t deal with these things, the level of murder and suffering often skyrockets.

There should be accountability, but I’m not sure this is about accountability.

Lol, I hit the nail on the head it seems.

Ah, a classic Luddite ad hominem. Show’s how weak your argument is.

So for you, this isn’t about climate, but animals? Are you an environmentalist or a vegan using climate to push vegan goals?

No, in that case, you’re digging up carbon in trees, lighting it and putting it in the sky…

But that carbon wouldn’t be in the air otherwise, so not good. Reduce, reuse, recycle.

Creepy how folk shill for more control by man over nature and our ecosystems. That has been so great for the planet.

To generate organic material will still take significant energy and materials, probably not much less than standard practice unless you’re looking at corporate funded research.

This feels like hijacking climate with a trojan horse for GM tech. “Now you like and eat your lab grown meat, how about, better yield, less disease. Let’s just flick these switches and change it. Oh BTW, this tech is proven and great to generate organs and flawless offspring”. Corpate entities gonna do everything to extract profit and do not care about the implications.

No, no and no.

Nah, it’s quite big and well known in open source circles.

You do you, though.

Screw the environment. More CO2 please.

Yes, and you do it at the point you need to work on that feature. The business pay for it when they want the change.

You do not pay for the refactor with your time, if the company won’t pay to fix their code. Just make it clear the risks and how bad it could be if you carry on with duct tape fixes.

You have to be strong and firm and not agree to hacks. You need to work with your team to ensure you’re on the same page rather than getting undermined by cowboy dev claiming he can do the feature in 2 days when it needs 2 weeks to do the necessary work.

Fair point, and no on the last point. Legalise weed, tackle gangs and help addicts get the help they need. Punishment doesn’t always work on crime. Without some element of reform.

Of course knife crime is pretty high here and if anything, police are a little weak on it and it has got out of control because jails are too full.

In some parts of the UK, it is genuinely scary to walk around and even looking at some young folk wrong is the best way to end up in an ambulance.

Many studies have looked into this, culture etc. For example how people conducted themselves in say Nazi Germany or during the Rwandan genocide.

Simply trying to understand how so many folk can commit such atrocities.

Knife crime is viewed differently in areas with high amounts of it. It’s more shocking in an area it doesn’t exist. In an area where folk growing up knowing or seeing people being stabbed, it’s seen very differently.

I don’t think juries should necessarily take it into consideration, but understanding situations, it’s quite relevant. If you’ve stepped into both poor and rich areas, you’ll understand the differences.

No.

The context is useful to understand the area and what occurs there though.

A very small step.

I wouldn’t go that far. I do not think Donald Trump could have won an election here. We do have a massive amount of idiots. Not as much though.

It’s fine. They said Windows 10 is there last operating system. It sure is for me.

It does though. If you have massive amounts of knife crime, the context makes sense. If there is none and one person does it, it’s all about the person.

Either way, walking publicly with a big sword claiming it’s a fidget spinner substitute is BS.

Not very populated in comparison though. If you take Birmingham, it’s got around 1.5m people. London / Greater London has around 8m / 12m. So higher instances are noteworthy.

It actually doesn’t.

It is the open source code. You can optionally install Google play in a restrictive sandbox if you wish. You do not have to.

I cannot disagree with the last sentence. He has his fair share of issues, but it doesn’t take away from his ability or contributions.

Unique seeeeeds, determin-istic activityyyy…

Well Devops isn’t a role. It’s an approach in which bridges development and operations and integrating it in the team. It isn’t sticking a cloud engineer (cloud biased sysadmin) in the team. It’s about collaboration and delegating and supporting.

Cloud engineer is unfortunately what many orgs think devops is.
