Or other criminals, or a straw purchase, or buying them on the street, or buying via the "gun show" loophole. Truth be told, I have friends who went down "the wrong path" in life. I've got family that aren't ex

Funny part was, I didn't even own a gun for the break in or when I found the dude breaking into my neighbors house. In fact, I was lucky enough that there happened to be a cop driving by right as I ran out the door to try to grab his p

That argument always presumes it is the entire military against civilians. One would think if things got that bad, there would be some manner of defections from the military into the rebelling side.

Or when someone breaks into your apartment and the police have an average response time of, what, 10 minutes or so? How about when you pull over to assist a crashed motorcyclist and it turns out he's a DUI-case and attempts to car-jack

Well, it's gamified for a reason. Sure, I'll hang out on IRC and help folks, respond to questions on YouTube video tutorials I've posted, etc. I'm certainly altruistic to a point, but throw a number in front of me and it

Weird. In the past two years or so, I've answered almost every one of my own answers after an additional day or two of work. Generally, when I think I've exhausted all leads on solving a problem I'll distill everything down i

I understand the vitriol, and I'm not even sure where I stand on the issue, but this quickly gets into a philosophical debate. This is something akin to the "railroad switch" question. Do you pull the level and divert a railr

I get why that would be nice, but it feels kinda wrong for what Java is[0]. That's why if I need to quickly bang out or test something I use my Scala REPL. [0] - http://programmers.stackexchange.com/a/184183/7

Can anyone speak a bit more to that? I was wondering if this was just a convenience feature that browsers added or something that has been in Javascript all along?

I mean, that damn near fits the bill for me last year when I left my first job and was looking for a mid level position. 3 years professional experience, had been doing some limited freelancing/consulting in that time, and for a couple

They are certainly out there, they just aren't as common as one would like. Finding a good small business or startup (I don't mean a Silicon Valley "Facebook for Cats"-esque venture) with the right people can be a game c

My questions is why wouldn't something lime ammo be considered more valuable? In the US at least, you have fairly standard calibers, most rifles are going to be .308 or .223, and a couple others. A 30-round magazine of .223 carries muc

Perhaps my cynicism, but wouldn't material goods with more utility be worth even more? I'm sure in a some End-of-Government scenario in which people would be in a barter economy, I would value things like food and water, tools, fi

I took the route of leaving college in my 2nd year. Several of my friends have recently graduated, and there is the typical fracturing of those truly passionate, those who just did the coursework, and those who didn't learn a damned th

Is that an hour by car or an hour by public transport? Being an American, and never having been around good, reliable public transport except when visiting Europe, I wonder what the tolerance for time/distance is for active vs. passive

Maybe not strictly "goth", but I certainly fell into their market segment in my teenage years (where else does one get one of those lovely studded belts in the south?). About a year ago I was at a rather large mall up in Charlotte

My gut feeling says that a consumer that isn't savvy enough to upgrade a browser is most likely shopping at a big box store, or maybe Amazon.

I suppose, but to turn around and complain about how you haven't been able to find work for the past 5-10 years seems to indicate there might be something beyond "I got laid off because of outsourcing."

No the commenter you're asking, but I've never had a constructive conversation with "those types" - the kind who go out of their way to talk about getting laid off from a tech company. Of all the ones I've spoken wi

That's funny, I'd considered going EE for the same reason but had a scholarship for CS so just went with the path of least resistance... The reason I think it's fear, and maybe I'm just projecting, is that anytime I didn

I guess the ability to overcome the urge to seize up is, itself, something one needs to acquire. There is little in my life that I'm afraid to attempt. Investigate a problem and break it down into its component parts, repeat ad nauseam

I don't buy into government propaganda to a large degree. I'm fiercely critical of my government. But you clearly have your preconceived notions, so I'll leave you to it.

Lacking context, that sure does sound scary, but it isn't thirst for bloodsport alone, but the added desire to stop those intent on doing the same to others, especially innocents. The notion of sheep, wolves, and sheepdogs.

I think that hits the nail pretty well. The handful of older adults I know who went into the service did it for those exact reasons, wanted to fly, wanted to go to college on the GI bill, wanted to become a surgeon but couldn't afford

We certainly have a time difference, I was born in '93, so we all came of age throughout the war, and by the time we graduated (2011) and could enlist, the war had raged and begun to wane. The cards had fallen, and anyone with half a b
