It feels more likely they'd shut down DARPA without realizing what it is than try to rename it.
Some Americans clearly must do this, but personally, I've never heard this in my life until I saw it on a YouTube video of a British person complaining how Americans pronounce words. Obviously, your experience may vary…
A different version of this argument is: why should it matter if I'm querying the content using the API directly versus by using the HTML web interface? If it's the case that different consumers of the API might put…
This is a fantastic point. The commentary about the passports is really a sideshow: if other nations that are part of a larger state are allowed to participate, so should the Iroquois.
What if Congress revoked all (or nearly all) implicitly and explicitly delegated powers to the Executive? The jockeying over who runs for President and how we elect them always seems to miss the point that the modern…
This isn't a spatial metaphor any more than "upperclassmen" and "underclassmen" are for high schools or "left" and "right" are for politics. We call it the "upper" chamber because it's supposed to be the higher status,…
The blockchain part of the voting app provides a buzzword.
Better yet, Windows Subsystem for Linux: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10
This is critically important. As a PM, I view it as one of our responsibilities to keep pushing to address the problems - even as we focus on external facing features.
You understand that The Post is about the Pentagon Papers, and takes place in the 1970s, when Jeff Bezos was like 10 right?
@jakebasile clearly a legitimate problem to be solved. The Xbox reference is merely to show that virtualized solutions can be very high performance. I've never had my Xbox drop frames or anything that would indicate…
Security. I believe Centennial apps don't have the ability to actually modify the system - they just think they can via the container interface. Worth noting: the Xbox One has used virtualization since day one for video…
Rules against insider trading do not prevent executives from trading the company's stock. They can set rules with their financial advisors like "sell x amount of stock every y weeks" which will be executed regardless of…
Have I? If a White House official finds their personal device has been hacked or isn't working properly, what is the right next step?
As an important government official, would you rather he gone to the Verizon store when his phone stopped working?
California laws cannot violate the California constitution or the US constitution. Presumably, the land owner believes the law in question violates his rights as a citizen of the state of California and/or the United…
I passionately disagree with the concept of a wealth tax, unless it's only on new wealth (also known as income), because otherwise you're taxing money that has already been taxed. Money should only be taxed once. All of…
They have a blood test...
Thanks for the links!
I'm no expert and I'm just as frightened by the spread of this disease as everyone else, but I think people in this thread, and the media in general, are being a tad "end-of-the-world"-y about this without looking at…
Not only are these file formats not binary (they are zipped XML), they are standardized and their standards are known and maintained. No issue here.
Anecdotally, I have seen ACT scores improve with work and time. Most people at my high school took the ACT not the SAT, so possibly the effect is not the same. But, as I'm sure you would agree, it's a terrible argument…
That's the idea, but the idea that it's even possible to test intelligence with a multiple choice test is fallacious. Intelligence is simply too difficult to define. The fine tuning on these sorts of tests simply…
You can learn a lot by writing your own code to solve problems solved by existing libraries. I always used to do these kind of things when I was in high school; just because I was bored and wanted to code. Plus, there…
So apparently getting a certain grade on a standardized test makes you smart? Having never met this girl, none of us have any idea if she's smart, but she's certainly not dumb for a score she got on a standardized test…
