-- in uk school lunch is not free? - this is typical lunch every school child in Korea provided free daily - thought this was usual in developed countries? --
We used to have free milk, but Thatcher got rid of that (Thatcher, Thatcher, milk snatcher).
One challenge in the UK, especially somewhere like London, is we have a fair amount of diversity in food choices.
Providing nutritious, tasty meals on a very limited budget with options for vegan, vegetarian, kosher, halal, gluten free and other diets can be a challenge for schools, and many primary schools are quite small without cooking facilities. When I was young, it was normal in primary to bring a "packed lunch" from home, usually a sandwich and crisps. The standard UK lunch as an adult is still a sandwich for most people. The move towards free cooked school meals has been suggested because turns out that many don't have access to a daily healthy cooked meal at home.
Around 20% of kids get school meals for free whether it's being under a certain age or in a household under a certain income, but in most cases, no, school lunches aren't free. As a parent, I am aware that some kids, mostly in secondary education, will buy snacks for their friends or share their lunch with them if they can't afford it every day.
I went to school in the 80’s and 90’s in Canada (suburbs of Toronto) and school lunch was not free. The primary school did not have facilities to prepare lunch, and high school had a pay-as-you-go cafeteria. I don’t know if things have changed.
A lot of countries seem to manage to provide really good school lunches. Totally unlike, say, the US, where it's usually crap and has gradually been getting worse.
I think it all but requires some existing, quality-valuing food culture. Try to serve good lunches to kids here and you'd have all the parents crying about how their kids "can't" eat that and need an Uncrustable and chocolate milk instead or whatever.
-- makes sense - Korean Air flight - Only other nearby East Coast ports they could fly into are Boston - DC - don't think the have resources to deal with random passengers stuck at those two airports - friend of mine does logistics at Korean Air - his english is ok - but not good enough to deal with such a change id guess --
Just exemplary, the #4 on HN right now is "A Cold War mystery: Why did Jimmy Carter save the space shuttle?" This is a fairly normal occurrence and nobody would dare to moderate it. But it is clearly super clickbait (of a nothing burger).
Edit:
#13 Virtual DOM is pure overhead (2018)
is a total dramatification and uses the exact same tactics as I, which is making react js devs re-consider their belief belonging behavior.
-- not sure you understand what clickbate is - "Clickbait is a text or a thumbnail link that is designed to attract attention and to entice users to follow that link and read, view, or listen to the linked piece of online content, being typically deceptive, sensationalized, or otherwise misleading." - all the titles you provide - tell what the article is going to be about to some degree or another - granted some better than others - your title tells me nothing useful at all - it's pure clickbate - it is not a good title --
everything is clickbait if every headline was entirely milquetoast, nobody would know where to click anymore.
reuters.com: "Adani abandons $2.5 billion share sale in big blow to Indian tycoon"
Do you think it is necessary to mention "2.5 billion" "abandon" and "big blow" "tycoon". It is all clickbait everything. Without a good CTR, nothing gets read.
#13 Virtual DOM is pure overhead (2018) is a dramatization. It says everyone using the virtual DOM is stupid for not optimizing their code and still using react. As someone with a lot of equity in react, it is shocking because it invokes a feeling of surprise: "Wow, I must be doing something wrong". The adjective "pure" is overhead. It adds drama, nothing else.
Their product doesn't use a virtual dom, i.e. to them it IS pure overhead. I agree with you that it is provocative, but it takes a position on a specific thing in the title, not just "Millions of people are stupid"
I don't want to see a bunch of titles that say "The react crowd is mad" which could have been the title
Edit: Reading your other posts here, it seems you can't/won't engage in the difference here.
I didn't intend to insult the AI crowd as in "Millions of people are stupid." (as in e.g. "you, ML engineer are stupid"! I did NOT intend that). But in a stampede or a market mania people don't get hurt because of the individual's stupidity. They get hurt because of herd behavior, and it's tragic. But that's a group dynamic and isn't insulting people individually.
Agree. It doesn't make it not-clickbait just because your goal is to be "offensive". I will say, the article is just that, provocative without much substance.
