My point is not about how case is meant to be used my point is that it is very easy to make a mistake that is difficult to spot. I think it makes a lot more sense to the case insensitive, and force different names to be used.

I feel the same way about programming languages. There is no way that “User” and “user” should refer to different variables. How many times has that screwed people up, especially in a weekly typed language?
One of the many things that I feel modern versions of Pascal got right.
Famous people take out those kinds of insurance policies, or say that they have taken them out, in order to get attention.
The Japanese government wants people to choose citizenship by the end of their 20th year, because 20 is the age of majority in Japan. But if you don’t say anything, they won’t ask, and you can keep renewing your Japanese passport along with your other nationality’s.
I’m a Canadian, and I was married to a Japanese woman. She was on the family registry, and our children were, but I was a comment. Way to show a commitment to treating all people equally, Japan!
I would imagine that it also has to do with the family registry. If a woman marries a man, she is taken from her own Family Registry and entered in her husband’s. I would imagine that upon the husband’s death nothing changes for the wife, but she has the option of returning to her own family registry.
I’m not 100% sure that this is how it works, or the reason for this termination, but it seems like a valid one.
The “Mission” paragraph above the highlighted text is even more ludicrous!
That’s right. If the debts take up all the money, then there is nothing left to inherit. And if there isn’t enough money to pay all the debts, then the debtors go away unsatisfied. In no case do the heirs have any responsibility for the debts.
I should emphasize that this is in countries governed by English common law: the UK, Canada, the US, Australia, New Zealand, etc. I have no idea if it is true in countries following the Napoleonic Code, or anywhere else.
Debts are discharged before heirs receive their inheritance.
I understand the concept, but I have never heard the term Native American used for anyone except the indigenous people within the United States of america.
That’s interesting. I don’t think I have ever seen someone refer to an Aboriginal Canadian as a Native American. Native Canadian yes, but native Americans were always south of the border in my mind.
I’m just about to move to Quebec, which is based on the French Napoleonic code rather than English Common Law. I’m not an expert, but I understand that the French system does not rely on precedent in making judicial decisions, but everything has to be codified in the law.
Anyway, another one of the legal differences between Quebec and other provinces in Canada is that mandatory arbitration clauses are illegal.
The medical system may be imploding even faster than the rest of Canada, and my rights as an English speaker may be stripped from me by the time I move, but they do have some protections for individuals.
I think that you are reading too much into it. The reason they vote against the public good, like universal healthcare, is because they are paid lots of money to do so.
There are estimated to be between 200,000 and 400,000 significant deviations (i.e. not just spelling mistakes) in the New Testament manuscripts we now have. Scholars make educated guesses about what the correct wording is, but those are still guesses.
You know the story of the adulteress who is going to be stoned? That was added at least 100 years after the rest of the Gospel of John was written.
The oldest surviving manuscripts of the Book of Luke, which was the first gospel written, ends with the women running away from the empty tomb and not telling anyone. It is believed that the resurrection story was added later.
Bart Ehrman does a very good job of explaining these issues on his YouTube channel.
I’ve been making a spreadsheet of my unused keys from humble bundles going right back to the very beginning. There are over a thousand of them.
To be honest, I’m not entirely sure what to do. Give them way to friends and family?
A couple of years ago, Canada required all carriers to cell unlocked phones, or allow them to be unlocked for free. Nothing bad has happened because of that. Our cell phone plans are still too expensive, and the companies are wildly profitable.
I bought a book that had Yggdrasil in a CD that I used so I didn’t have to go into the university for the Unix labs.
I think that the entirety of the book, around 1,000 pages, was printed out man pages.
I think that singing English songs would be very, very helpful. It forces you to use the phrasing, pronunciation, and emphasis of a native English speaker.
Did you know that you can edit the title of your post? You should think about it!
