Websites that are involved are french news papers, french Amazon like marketplace and a french mobile provider.

I don't think you can categorise those as "distracting".

This comparison is a bit biased, you could compare IOS and Android naming which will be the same from now on "name - version number".

I think the cultural argument is not the most important one for this decision, the important point is that old naming is confusing to newcomers and customers since Android has a lot of disparities between devices and supported versions[1] whereas Apple can count on a very high rate of adoption for their new versions[2].

It is for sure a marketing move even if it hurts Android users who used to love this naming convention.

Or maybe just read the article, there is a link to a Desertsun article about cameras found in Palm Springs hotel bathroom.

Even if there is laws this doesn't mean that hotels are free from pervert.

> 8. Should I think about how many children I have (or don’t have)?

Maybe the worst point of the whole article, here is my point of view : educated and people aware of environment change have fewer kids, people with the opposite way of thinking have more kids and have the same education. We create a world where the people who don't care outnumber those who care, since the most praised government system is Democracy the power goes to the number.

Path to idiocracy (great message for a comedy movie).

First of all, why do you need to fire employees to run a startup ? I don't think this is a major need in the development of a startup in fact firing someone is dangerous since you lose experience and knowledge.

France as many countries in Europe have laws that protect employees against abuse from companies but you can still fire someone if there is a reason it is just regulated.

> With cheap music streaming services such as spotify, apple music and google play as well as video streaming such as netflix and amazon, does anyone need bittorrent anymore?

Yes people need bittorrent, first of all "cheap" is subjective, not everybody can afford to pay each month to watch movies/series and listen to music. Then there is a limit to what can offer Netflix or Amazon for example: I love movies and I watch a lot of them at the theater and at home but I can't find any Cronenberg's or Lynch's (yes I like Davids) movies on Netflix/Amazon. Even finding them on DVD/Bluray is difficult sometimes even with classics.

And there I am talking only about big directors movies, I am french and watch a lot of french movies but when I try to find old ones or just some with low budget it is nearly impossible besides torrents.

So yes we need bittorent/stremio but I wish we don't and that culture will be available to everyone someday.

This article made me realise the gap between France and the US, whereas free college is rare in the US, in France people are fighting and getting on strike so there isn't any selection in free universities.

It removes the brackets and the return keyword, const is in fact a constant but this not ES6 it is just doing a function expression instead a function declaration (you create a const variable and assign an anonymous function to it instead of using the keyword 'function')

This is used for readability and to avoid hoisting that can be confusing.
