Or just "Name". Not all people have a clear first and last name.

Interesting idea but they are comparing different year surveys with the same age children.

Do you think that kids are more prone to lying now, than earlier years?

It may also be cheaper because they only run (and acal) when needed, instead of having a few extra servers running "just in case".

Interesting. I've never made that distinction between reinforcement and punishment.

Positive reinforcement is the act of adding either a reward for good behavour or a punishment for bad behavior.

It seems like both of you are doing that.

Yes they are telling you tomorrow.

Some derivatives aim to lower the risk, so the active decision to buy it would be to ungamble then? Or is it just gambling wyen you choose not to buy it?

Do you have insurance on your house or do you gamble that it will be fine without it?

Exactly! Which is why it is mad trying to outlaw or frown upon "gambling" with stocks.

There are many great wxamples in this thread already of why derivatives are necessary to a functioning society.

Wow that got complicated very quickly. Bummer no-one can come up with a simple example of when quicksort is useful.

[–] Lifter@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 8 months ago

They don't, as others have pointed out. It's just a standard single board computer with some addons and a case.

I disagree. That's like saying insurance shouldn't be allowed.

Highly regulated would be anotheratter though.
