>"Average health insurance profit margin in US is ~3%. That's not a greedy profit margin." Could it be that good chunk of the profits is eaten by overinflated salaries of major execs?

The stand is crap as the wrists are placed on a serrated looking rim of a stand. As soon as anyone puts their hands on it wrong way it is a goner. And the price is in line with Versace.

This was to illustrate a point of auto rather than intricacies of copying, referencing. I know what I want and am familiar with auto&, const auto&, auto&& etc. etc.

>"One interesting mechanism which might help curb that oversupply in the coming decades is the 15% inheritance tax" Housing is one of the areas I do not see any problems with oversupply.

I am in a middle ground. Usually do not use auto but in the cases like: for (auto member : set_of_members) and some other that are similar by nature auto is a god blessing.

You must be amazing person. I do however doubt that giving money to funds will fix anything. That upper 1% and their politicians purchased wholesale will fuck it up regardless. They've accumulated insane wealth and power. I doubt they

One of my favorite sites. Been reading it for more than 10 years. It is very unfortunate that the owner and developer of the site can not make a living.

Are they now? I see no reason why they should as long as it does not fall under special exception list. Like pedos working in kindergarten. But attempt to hire those would raise that special exception flag anyways.

This whole criminal record piece of shit is a crime on its own. I believe that records of people who served their time or just have been arrested/carded and then let free must be sealed and not accessible to general employers. Some obv

From my experience those intelligent people who for whatever reasons can not get back to their original occupation still doing rather well in other fields. I am in Canada since the beginning of 90s. have many immigrant friends, most of them

Canada could have imported as many young educated people as it wanted from Eastern European countries, Russia, former USSR members etc. What happens in reality is they can't get enough points due to some truly moronic rules. Yet someho

Correction. Most people don't care about quality where that quality does not matter. And if it does not matter then the original statement is plainly false

It checks out big time for me. >"In 21 U.S. metros, the monthly cost of owning is at least 50% more expensive" I am not in the US. 21 metros do not constitute country. When I bought house in major metro (Toronto) it was $200,00

I live in Canada, own house and pay property taxes. Cut the BS. You know what I mean under own. Yes ownership is limited but even limited it is much better than throwing away extra dosh to some middleman I do not give a flying fuck about.

Agree. Sure there are problems here and there but I think that overall modern C++ is likely the most versatile tool in the "compiled to native, can do anything" family

Treating NSO owners / decision makers the same way as Gary McKinnon would be more appropriate. But I guess they are more "equal".
