You're seriously comparing SQL to assembly? There's a point where it doesn't make sense to add another layer, another dependency, etc.

Write raw SQL queries. My feeling on the Django ORM is that it's useful for defining models and managing migrations, but I prefer to write raw SQL for all queries. The PostgreSQL documentation is really good too.

I was trying to put a word on it too. It's irrational if minimization of harm is the goal. And it's totally blind to the externalities of pouring massive amounts of money into the surveillance industry and really the war industry

Yeah, it's clear that this shooting was wrong. Yanez came into the situation with false notions about Castille, and the situation escalated very quickly because of it. It has been pointed out elsewhere that Castille did not follow the

Six months ago would have been right during the most frantic moments of the election. A lot of people probably missed it. I already had to vouch for it, but I doubt this will survive another 10 minutes of the flagging / downvote brigad

I will give Trump supporters some credit, because many of them became genuinely disillusioned after Trump's continuation of the status quo foreign policy in the Middle East and after the Saudi arms deal. Hard-line Obama supporters are

There are other people that want to socialize and not drink though.

Alcohol is a powerful drug. It's a little weird to put that expectation out there, that your future employees will drink beer with you. I drink alcohol occasionally in the absence of better drugs, but still, I'd probably choose no

From what I've heard, there are extensive connections between the Sinaloa cartel and the Mexican federal government too. The cartels laundered over a billion dollars one year through the state-owned oil company Pemex, for example. It&#

Phnom Penh has one too but I'm not sure how reliably you can get your stuff back. Two bikes stolen here for me, but only 40$ a piece.

Do you mean to say that the footage should be censored? I think their crimes should be seen be all. A better stop-gap measure against the radicalization of American terrorists would be to prevent the DoD from recruiting at high schools, at

Violence is not speech, but are images of violence speech? I am more worried about Google than ISIS. Real terrorists are people like Eric Schmidt who cozy up to the DoD.

Here's some similarly inglorious work from another British company, contracted by none other than the US government: http://www.salon.com/2016/10/03/u-s-paid-p-r-firm-540-millio...

Re-using a public key seems like an incredibly basic mistake. How is the chain of custody for digital evidence handled by intelligence agencies and 3rd party researchers? Are there higher standards with regard to digital evidence? It seems

You said it yourself. You expect a woman in her 30s with no relationship experience who hardly ever drinks alcohol. Without saying anything about those preferences, it's only a small number of women who fit that requirement. Do you hav

The slight towards Ventura is unfair as well. Although he is an odd guy, he is not ideologically in the same category as the recent American presidents at all. I am proud that my mulishly-regressive home state elected Ventura in a way, even

For pure linguistics I'd recommend Transformational Grammar by Andrew Radford and Metaphors We Live By by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson. And for NLP, Dan Jurafski and James H. Martin's Speech and Language Processing is exce

Firefox on Linux performs really well for me, even with 50-100 tabs open. However I have your same problem with not knowing how to preserve the network history between refreshes, that would be useful.

How about no analytics at all?! It's weird that GP is downvoted for suggesting that Google should not be given a free pass to spy on a site that contains sensitive information about people's political opinions.

Nope, the murder rate in Chicago now is still lower than it was for most of the late 70s and the early 90s.
