Just allow people and corporations to own any homes they build. That way we can all still hope to be landlords with a hundred homes.

So long as landlords grow their business by increasing the total stock of housing, no harm is done.

So you're saying that authoritarianism works and is just fine. The implication is that Venezuala is a shithole and it's people are unhappy with their leader because of sanctions, not because of the lack of democracy.

I'm saying people have a right to choose that, and moreover it's not my obligation as an American to fund overthrowing those regimes, or for that matter make them pariahs for being undemocratic alone.

As much as I dislike it, there are also an acceptable amount of human right abuses before we care, and its somewhere between punishing dissidents and genocide.

Venezuela had economic issues before sanctions due to chronic mismanagement of the economy, which led to a humanitarian crisis causing a mass exodus (which made the economic issues worse).

Ukraine will be happy to hear that they haven't been invaded.

I too thought it was a beautiful art gallery, and not an article. Mainly because all I could see was art. Apparently there was an article too but I couldn't read it. I assume it was made for 21 yr olds with perfect vision and not intended for people over 40yrs old.

When I saw the article (which, for some reason, I had no trouble finding) I felt the same way, but then remembered I could adjust the font size myself with a few keystrokes.

Oh god I have this problem with my firstlast@outlook.com address. I have a common english name so get the emails of other people from all over the world. The worst are subscriptions and regular invoices.

I had to give up using the address.

Huh? Are phone numbers tied to physical sims in your country? You can't just ask the phone company to give you a new sim with the same number?

It was a Google Project Fi phone with a very valuable number (for me, many 8, no 4). Was not able to recover.

no, I got my puk code from my phone operator when I moved services before. at least in the UK it works that way.

Yes, but you are unlikely to have your PUK code (its on the card you got your sim with) if you have also lost the sim.

Its a much more losable bit of plastic, and without it (or a contract) why would an operator give you the PUK code for a number they can’t prove you used to have access to? It would be impossible to tell if you are trying to steal someones number.

you walk into the shop with your passport or driving licence....

Try it

Are you telling me this is a lie: https://www.vodafone.co.uk/help/unlocking-your-phone

Please continue up the line to find the context.

The grandparent does not have his sim card.

> The grandparent does not have his sim card.

which is not necessary for transferring your number to a new SIM. when you lose your phone here, you don't lose your number.

Depends. Google was not able to recover my Google Project Fi number because I was abroad. And when I was back in the US it was "too late"

Amateur hour.

I say this with love, compassion, grace, and all due respect: Who gives a shit?

It's a website for web devs. Web devs give a shit.

Ruby isn't necessarily for web devs. Ruby is popular for all sorts of business line applications. In Japan is popular for lower level programming. You can do game programming via something like Dragon Ruby. Sure its very popular for Rails, but you don't necessarily need to do web dev.

I don't understand why everyone is talking about the cars when the bigger issue is why the critical infrastructure (lights) don't have batteries for backup.

Because that would be prohibitively expensive (possibly even after the arrival of LED bulbs).
