As an east Berliner we have trams and no double deckers, but I have only seen double deckers near the center of the city.
I can’t remember seeing them in the places with trams, but I don’t see them much at all. This is my limited observation, as I don’t use busses as much as trains and don’t know the west as well as the east.
If you really care I can cycle out (in?) on the weekend and check.
Edit: added my bias
“When confronted by orcas, white sharks will immediately vacate their preferred hunting ground and will not return for up to a year, even though the orcas are only passing through”*

Generally, forcing developers to code something has been considered “compelled speech”
I’m European so I don’t quite understand.
Say person A paid person B to say X and had a valid contract. If B didn’t say X can person A sue person B to compel performance of contract or just money back/damages?
At least for new games wouldn’t it just be an implied part of the purchasing contract, meaning money back at least.
As a climber I have to disagree, figure 8 knots are the best, especially when double back.
It’s the one knot I trust my life to on a weekly basis and I have rarely encountered a situation where they weren’t part of the solution.
How?
Good question. I said should, not could… it would take a constitutional change, […]
I mean: if you had the power, how would you ban parties? At what point do political organizations become parties? How about individual representatives working together?
Bring back the old literacy tests while you’re at it
Pfft. The two are not the same. You could be perfectly illiterate and still find out what the supposed values of the politicians were by simply listening to them, or just talking to others about policy and politicians ties to them, like we used to.
Yes literacy is not the deciding factor, but it was always a pretense to keep certain people from voting.

Long answer:
Why does hft even exist?
Hft can exist because most stock markets react to requests as fast as possible and have no noticable fees for certain use cases. This means algorithms that do simple trades like if goggle goes up, buy other tech companies or buy any stock that goes up in europe on the NY market can make small profits if they are faster than everyone else.
Does it have any value?
There is one exchange that imposes a delay on every request, effectively inhibiting hft, and its opening actually improved market conditions on all exchanges. This implies it has negative value.
They also spend millions on hardware, tools and developers to skim small sums of many transaction on the stock market. They are effectively a (very inefficient) tax on the stock market that goes to improving C++ compilers and funding hardware startups.
Political parties should be abolished.
How?

Plus then it would allow people like your local mail carrier to run for things like school committee.
They aren’t? If yes how would that change?

I bet the Dutch would reward anyone who delivered Putin to the Hauge with some bike lanes wherever they want.
Jetbrains products also have a fallback license after a year, so you retain perpetual acces to an old version* and I don’t think there is much change in the space of git UIs.
