Just a reminder: polls aren't facts. They are sample based estimates. But you are right it'd be good to see the poll numbers on sanders. And the margins for error. You are stating the delegate count as if it is in stone, when in f

I think I mostly agree with you. But with source mappings, trans-piling is pretty neat. With ECMAScript 6, Coffee, or Typescript. I remember the days of buggy Coffee and agree it was ridiculous when you hit a compile bug. But all the tra

Once you add a transpile step, your "transpile step" can give you a lot more confidence, with linting, and flow, and ecmascript 6. Minifying, concatenating, and compiling only used code paths/files and assets is only a few li

... Zero income tax? Care to name one. I would hazard a guess they derive revenue from some other source as their middle class is either non existent or they have piles of oil. So you are saying you want higher business tax? Or a flat tax r

So you took advantage of a system paid for by others and then decided you wouldn't contribute back. That's fine, but also pretty much the definition of greedy/selfish. Regardless what your "hardship" story maybe, it

Why did we want Aaron Swartz to go free? He was actually charged with a felony crime. Or maybe some times things aren't what they seem and their are political motivations, and they require politics to fight them, not just blindly follo

Paying people the same value they contribute is not socialism. It's called: Being a good person. Capitalism seems to have made us all think it's completely okay to exploit someone else's surplus labour. How is the risk the f

When my arguement is about moral superiority, then hypocrisy is completely relevant. When someone says "spreading human rights" they are appealing to a moral superiority. I'm pointing out there isn't one. But if the sand

But once you start making semi-conductors you start making money. The 100 billion is the seed capital. Semi-conductors pay for themselves once they're rolling. See samsung's balance sheet.

I agree that is why he should be remembered. I disagree that is why he is. Of course impossible to seperate the reasons now. But certainly his notoriety is far more widespread after his death, than before.

You are comparing money without factoring inflation or overall GDP... So basically you are just spreading FUD. Is there evidence that private sector is more efficient? Lots of companies blow money on lots of stupid shit... I guess that does
