And Hacker News comments are any better? The core issue becomes: who do you trust? If you read the comment and blithely accept what it says without thinking about it, you'll fall for any scam that comes along. You need…
and lisp code, don't forget that decades old lisp code (sometimes) runs with no changes on current lisp implementations.
Why is it that morals rule on message boards?
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Someone always has to pay, and socialized healthcare just means that your neighbor has to pay for your poor lifestyle decisions. Employer 'provided' healthcare is a voluntary,…
Sounds interesting. I'm very curious, though, to see an ignition profile of the compression ignition concept: it seems to me that compression would be even throughout the ignition chamber, leading to a somewhat (within…
"Necessity is the Mother of Invention" - how many of us here only program when we have an itch to scratch? Human ingenuity will prevail.
When you need a law degree to understand law, the law has grown beyond the bounds of common reason. Maybe we're looking at this from the wrong end of the telescope? The Justice System will say "ignorance is no excuse",…
The thing is, a lot of sexists may be doing it for the reaction from the target - with no reaction, the sexist doesn't get that 'thrill' that they would otherwise get. If the reward is consistently denied, the behaviour…
If a sexist makes a comment in the woods and no one hears him (or her), does it matter? I would say no.
if only there were something that you could legally take with you that would help... When seconds count, police are minutes away.
If you wear sexism-colored glasses, don't be surprised if everything looks like sexism. That, I think, is what she's getting at. If you're always looking for a slight, always looking for a snide remark, you'll find it.…
that's the biggest thing - you have to try and fail. Wisdom comes from learning from your past mistakes.
because maybe it was a ploy to get a better raise? who knows. you're right, though - if the allegations were true, why continue to work there?
Already a solved problem: anyone remember the video of the battery-changing station? Imagine racks of batteries charging via solar during the day time, and using off-peak electric grid power at night. Then it's just an…
They PUBLICLY resist government espionage attempts. we don't know for sure what they do in private.
The timeline where Hillary became President has already been ended. so yeah, maybe second.
lol - 'self-evidently specious'? You mean that only good and altruistic people want to learn? That is self-evidently false.
Man that brings back the memories: I had a Vic-20 and had learned how (through magazines) to program in BASIC. I had the Vic-20 manual, and for some reason could not conceptualize the link between assembly language and…
or just post a snarky reply that adds completely NULL to the discussion...
uhhh, yeah - we attended public school.
"even with Trump in the white house(sic)" - can we put this to bed yet? Trump isn't an oilman, he's a business man.
I'm still suspicious.
It's not that interior lands are against trade, it's that we are against trade that negatively advantages the US. When China can dump goods in the US with little to no tariffs, and the US cannot send goods to China,…
I would say that this (US portion) crowd has been hit negatively by immigration: H1B ring any bells? Can anyone other than CEOs hoping for cheap labor argue that scaling back H1B would be a bad thing?
historically it's what MS has done: Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. No reason to think that they are doing something different this time. Trust, once broken, takes quite a while to build back.
